I don’t think much of this report, but maybe that’s because I want Taylor Kinney all for myself. According to Radar, when Lady Gaga removed her bedazzled meat monocle and saw Taylor Kinney at the music video shoot for “You & I”, she liked what she saw and decided to make Taylor her lovah. I should also point out that there were similar reports about Gaga and Norman Reedus after he appeared in her video for “Judas”. I didn’t mind the Reedus reports, just because he kind of has a serial-killer face, and I wasn’t into him. But Taylor Kinney? I found him so, so hot. Still do. So this is sad if it’s true. Here’s the “You & I” video again:

I think it’s sexy when Kinney starts humping on her fins. He’s so HOT. Which makes this so sketchy.

Let’s hope this doesn’t turn into a Bad Romance! Life imitates art yet again, as RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal that Lady Gaga has embarked on a hot new relationship with You and I video co-star, Taylor Kinney.

The two met in late July on the set of said video, and have been dating ever since.

“It was just casual at first, but things are getting pretty hot and heavy,” a source close to the situation tells RadarOnline.com.

And indeed the handsome twosome were getting steamy when they popped into beachside bar, The Sneak Joint in Mission Viejo, California on Sunday September 4 for a few shots of Johnny Walker.

“I couldn’t tell it was her at first,” a Sneak Joint patron tells RadarOnline. “It just looked like some hot couple making out, but then I realized it was Lady Gaga! Everyone went nuts! She was so sweet too — she even signed some autographs.”

Then, on Monday September 5 Gaga and Taylor were spotted walking hand in hand on Mission Viejo’s main drag, Mission Boulevard.

“Her hair was a little messy. It definitely seemed like a ‘morning after’ situation,” our eyewitness says. “They are obviously totally into each other!”

And on Tuesday September 6 they were spotted yet again — this time on the beach!

So just who is this mysterious hunk that has won the heart of pop’s reigning princess?
30-year-old Kinney is an avid surfer who starred as Mason Lockwood on the hit series The Vampire Diaries. He hails from Pennsylvania and lives in Mission Viejo, a beach community in southern Orange County, famed for its sky scraping waves.

I’d be willing to bet that Gaga is still with Luc Carl, now and forever. I’d also be willing to bet that Gaga hasn’t had a man-made orgasm in years. I just don’t think she can ever stop “performing” at this point, so how could she ever cut loose and enjoy herself with a man? But if Taylor is hitting it – and there seem to be lots of “sightings”, right? – then I guess it’s good for Gaga. She needs a MAN to do things to her and get her out of her crackhead.

Oh, and Gaga was just confirmed for Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2012 – she will perform in Times Square for the 40th anniversary of the show.
