No Joker – Lady Gaga's engagement ring is stunning. The diamond solitaire set in platinum reportedly set her fiance Michael Polansky back a cool $578,000 but it was worth every cent.
Lady Gaga inadvertently revealed she was engaged at the 2024 Paris Olympics earlier in the summer, when she introduced Michael to French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal as "my fiancé" while the trio enjoyed a swimming event together.
It took center stage as part of her fit for the red carpet, as the singer turned actress wore an all-black custom Dior Haute Couture dress with a plunging velvet bodice and a contrasting silk and velvet voluminous skirt with over the top pleating.
The ring is an eight-carat, oval-cut diamond solitaire set in platinum.
