It kind of surprises me that Lady Gaga hasn’t had much in the way of love/romance drama. I’m not talking about her dumbass on-again/off-again situation with Luc WhatsIt. I’m talking about Gaga being seen with some random celebrity dude and the tabloids making it into a thing, like they do with every other female celebrity. Gaga doesn’t get that, perhaps because (IMO) she seems oddly sexless? It’s not androgyny or even drag queen styles. She just seems… odd. Off. Devoid of sexuality. Like… the drag queen eunuch. Anyway, as I reported late last week, Gaga seems to be indicating that she and Luc are done. Which gave the tabloids an opening, and they’re running with the only lead they’ve got: JUD-AH!!! Yes, Judas himself, or rather the dude who plays Judas in the video, Norman Reedus.

In this week’s Star Magazine (via Jezebel), sources claim that Reedus was the reason Gaga and Luc called it quits. Apparently, “whenever Gaga has a break, she hangs out with Reedus — and when Luc calls her, she won’t tell him who she’s with.” Reedus has even been quoted about Gaga! He says: “She’s the coolest girl ever. She’s super chill… very personable with everyone around her.” And sources tell Star that Reedus is “smitten” with Gaga too, and that they’ve “been spending lots of quality time” together and “their chemistry is incredible.” The British tabloids (who love Gaga) have jumped on it too:

Lady Gaga has reportedly been “getting closer and closer” to actor Norman Reedus. The 25-year-old singer last week revealed on a UK talk show that she was single, confirming that her on/off relationship with Luc Carl had come to an end. However, it has now been claimed the songstress has found love with actor-and-model Norman, 42, who appears in her controversial Judas music promo.

“Gaga and Luc are over, and she seems to have been getting closer and closer to the star of her Judas music video, Norman Reedus,” a source told more! magazine.

Norman is known for playing Daryl Dixon in hit US horror TV series The Walking Dead. It has been claimed that Gaga was desperate to meet Norman for some time, and was over the moon when the opportunity arose for them to work together.

“She’s a big fan of TV series Walking Dead, which stars Norman, so she’s been obsessed with his character for ages,” added the insider.

“They have a lot of mutual friends in New York and she’s been turning up to parties, I think, in the hope of meeting him. But she’s always missed him for one reason or another. When he accepted the part of Judas in the video, she was screaming with excitement and jumping up and down.”

For the record, Norman Reedus’s rep tells Gossip Cop that none of the Gaga speculation is true and that the only time Reedus and Gaga spent time together was when they shot the video. I kind of hope it’s true though. I want Gaga to fall for an interesting celebrity dude. It would be interesting for her to find her own version of Sean Penn you know? Penn and Madonna, Gaga and Reedus? It could happen.

But for now, they’ll always have JUDE-AH!!
