Diva appearance at the Lido
Lady Gaga lets her engagement ring sparkle in Venice
It's no longer a secret that Lady Gaga not only loves the flashy, but also the glamorous appearance. In Venice, the 38-year-old put on a real diva performance - and incidentally let her XXL engagement ring sparkle in a flurry of flashbulbs.
On Wednesday, Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix's new film "Joker: Folie à Deux" premieres in Venice. The stars of the film appeared at the Lido for the press conference in the afternoon.
What a bling!
The singer and actress in particular attracted everyone's attention that afternoon. And that had a lot to do with a very special accessory.
Her engagement ring sparkled on the 38-year-old's ring finger. And it's quite a big bling!
Rumors that Lady Gaga was engaged to her boyfriend Michael Polansky first surfaced back in April. In July, the Oscar winner finally made the happy news official.
Glamorous appearance at the Lido
But Gaga also exuded a lot of glamor in other ways: For her first appearance in Venice, she opted for a black, calf-length dress with puffed sleeves. She teamed it with platform heels, black sunglasses and a beret.
Joaquin Phoenix, on the other hand, opted for a very casual look in a white T-shirt, jeans and Converse sneakers. The stars were accompanied by director Todd Phillips.
Lost kilos for the movie
In "Joker: Folie à Deux", Phoenix once again slipped into the role of the "Batman" villain Joker, while Lady Gaga will be seen as Harley Quinn.
Both Hollywood stars have lost weight for their roles, they revealed in Venice. Addressing Gaga, Phoenix said: "I met you and we rehearsed. Then you were away for a month and when you came back, you had lost a lot of weight. That was really impressive. It seemed very difficult." Gaga confirmed this and added: "I think we transformed into our characters over time and tweaked every detail."
In 2019, the first part of the comic adaptation won the main prize in Venice. Phoenix also won the Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role. He also spoke at the time about how he had lost a lot of weight for the role.
"Becomes an obsession"
When asked how much weight he lost for the role this time, he said: "I don't know. I can't remember." He regrets that he talked about it so much in the first movie. "It becomes an obsession because you're struggling and trying to get to a certain weight and then you can't help but talk about it. And then you sound like an actor talking about how much weight he's lost."
In the end, he says, he was angry with himself for talking about it so much. "This time I told myself I wasn't going to do it. So I'm not going to do it, but it was 47 pounds," he joked. "No, I don't know."
