After Lady Gaga was unexpectedly spotted holding a newborn, fans worldwide awaited news with more details about the singer’s motherhood. Today, the baby’s sex and name have been revealed.
Mexican social media users reacted with jokes upon learning that Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky named their first daughter Rose Bean Polansky—a name that translates to “Rosa Frijol” (Pink Bean) in Spanish. The most common joke among Mexican accounts was, “She named her Frijol Polansky.”
According to a birth certificate obtained by TMZ, the baby was born on June 9, 2026, at 11:19 PM at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. The document also revealed the infant’s sex, a detail the couple had kept private.
The combination of “Rose” and “Bean” sparked immediate comparisons to Mexican food. Among the comments circulating on X and Instagram, one stood out: “If Lady Gaga can name her daughter ‘Pink Bean,’ why can’t I name mine ‘Chilaquiles’?”
Another user linked the name to the singer’s visits to the country: “Lady Gaga was so charmed by her visits to Mexico last year that she named her daughter ‘Pink Bean’ in its honor.” These jokes joined the wave of reactions from the Mexican “Little Monsters” community that had been building since the pregnancy was confirmed.
The couple did not publicly explain the meaning they attribute to the name. *PEOPLE* magazine suggested possible connections to the singer’s career for each of the two chosen names.
The first theory links “Rose” to the rose tattoo Gaga has running down her back—a design created to commemorate her performance of “La Vie en Rose” in *A Star Is Born*. Regarding the middle name, TMZ suggested that “Bean” could refer to Carl Bean, a singer and activist whose life’s work was linked to the message behind “Born This Way.”
