The Weeknd has once again fueled intense fan speculation, this time with a cryptic Instagram Story that may hint at a long-awaited collaboration with Lady Gaga. The singer posted a vintage photo of Gaga from her The Fame era, likely taken around 2008, showing her beside a car with a “LADYGAGA” license plate. Fans quickly grabbed screenshots and launched theories across social media about a potential partnership between two of the biggest stars of the 21st century.
The subtle tease comes just days after The Weeknd wiped his Instagram clean—a move he often makes before launching a new era or major announcement. The timing has only intensified speculation, especially as both artists are coming off major creative years. The Weeknd recently released his sixth studio album Hurry Up Tomorrow and extended the global success of his After Hours Til Dawn Tour. Gaga, meanwhile, dominated 2025 with new hits like “Abracadabra” and “The Dead Dance,” while her album Mayhem earned two Grammy nominations for the 2026 ceremony.
For longtime fans, this isn’t the first time the idea of a Gaga–Weeknd collaboration has surfaced. In December 2024, The Weeknd shared an image of his Fortnite skin alongside Gaga’s, sparking rumors that the two pop powerhouses were teaming up for a song on Hurry Up Tomorrow. Their histories of high-profile collaborations only amplify the excitement: The Weeknd has linked up with Ariana Grande, Playboi Carti, Lana Del Rey, Daft Punk, and Travis Scott, while Gaga has created iconic pop moments with Beyoncé, BLACKPINK, and Bruno Mars.
The new Instagram teaser has revived hopes that the pair might finally join forces in the studio. Neither artist has commented, and no official confirmation has emerged—but the resurfaced photo, paired with The Weeknd’s social media reset, suggests something may indeed be in motion behind the scenes.
