Click to email this to a friend (Opens in new window)A New York Times opinion editor has revealed that her ex-boyfriend is Lady Gaga’s new “mystery man.”“I was eating bodega grapes at my desk on a recent Monday morning, gearing up to wrangle my inbox, when my phone started buzzing,” writes Times Opinion senior staff editor Lindsay Crouse in the paper.

Multiple pals reached out to ask if she’d checked social media: “It was an emergency: My ex-boyfriend, I learned, had a new girlfriend.

“I dated this normal, mystery man for seven years,” Crouse revealed (without ever mentioning Polansky by name in her piece).

“How do you compare yourself with Lady Gaga?” she wondered, but finally figured, “Recently someone sent me a photo of my fiancé and me dancing at a wedding, and I posted it on Instagram.

I saw Lady Gaga’s boyfriend in the views, and I realized we’re actually all the same: strangers, smiling on a screen.”
