Rose Bean Polansky. That is the name of Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky’s first daughter, born on June 9, 2026, in Los Angeles.
The couple kept the pregnancy and the baby’s arrival private for months, until TMZ and People reported her birth. However, what caught fans’ attention most was not how she came into the world, but the meaning behind her name. 🌹
“Rose” refers directly to “La Vie en Rose”, the song Gaga performed in A Star Is Born and has had tattooed along her spine for years.
“Bean”, several media outlets say, would be a tribute to Carl Bean, the LGBTQ+ singer and activist who popularized “I Was Born This Way” in the 70s, the song that inspired Gaga to write her own anthem of freedom.
Neither she nor Polansky confirmed the meaning. But for those who know her story, every letter of that name sounds like a letter from her own life.
