Lady Gaga has been dating her audio engineer ‘for weeks’

Lady Gaga has caused a storm after photos emerged of the star kissing her audio engineer Dan Horton during a brunch date in California last weekend.

The 33-year-old Oscar winner only recently called off her engagement to Christian Carino in February, and hasn't been seen on a date since. 

A source told Entertainment Tonight; "Gaga has real chemistry with Dan. They have been seeing each other for weeks and have been working with each other for a while."

"They have been working on new music, have spent hours of work time together and became really close. They're working very closely together at a home studio in Hollywood, and sparks just started flying," the insider continued.

"People noticed the chemistry early on, and now that she has taken some time to herself, she finally feels free to date. They seem like a pretty good match."

The Shallow singer was packing on the PDA in the photos, but Gaga is apparently planning on taking things "slowly" with Dan, who has worked with Bruno Mars, Camila Cabello, Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake.

"Dan's adorable, southern, artsy and very different from the typical Hollywood guy. Right now they are having fun and it's convenient," the source added.

"She can talk music with him and knows all the big-name artists he's worked with. She respects his work and sees him as a breath of fresh air."

As well as Christian Carino, Gaga was previously engaged to actor Taylor Kinney before calling it quits in 2016.

She gushed about her relationship with Carino last year, despite usually remaining private on her love life:

"When I went backstage, Christian was by the stairs making sure I was OK. The best part about being in love with someone is having them there to catch you if you fall."

She singer appears to have moved on, time will tell whether they're seriously dating or just having fun.
