Lady Gaga debuts French bulldog puppy 3 years after dognapping
View Date:2024-12-23 16:12:46
Lady Gaga is moving on with a new pooch after the 2021 saga over her stolen dogs.
The pop star took to TikTok to show off her new French bulldog puppy on Wednesday. In black hair, red lipstick and blue eyeshadow with thick black eyeliner, the singer serenaded her puppy by lip-syncing her new Bruno Mars-assisted single, "Die With a Smile."
She captioned the video simply with a snowflake emoji.
The new pup comes nearly three years after the "Born This Way" singer's dog walker, Ryan Fischer, was shot after being approached by two men who tried to steal her three dogs. Two of her pups, Koji and Gustav, were stolen, while the third dog was left and eventually recovered.
At the time, the actress said she would pay $500,000 for the safe return of her dogs, a matter that later led to a lawsuit after a woman previously arrested and charged in connection with stealing her pets made the return days later. Jennifer McBride alleged in a complaint filed in Los Angeleslast year that the singer defrauded her into surrendering the pets with the promise of a "no questions asked" $500,000 reward. A judge later ruled the star had no obligation to pay the woman.

McBride was one of five people charged in relation to the 2021 dognapping. McBride was charged with receiving stolen property and as an accessory to attempted murder. One other individual was charged with accessory and possession of a firearm, while three people were charged with attempted murder and robbery.
James Howard Jackson, the man responsible for shooting the dogwalker, was sentenced to 21 years in prison in 2022.
