Lady Gaga Rumors: Getting Engaged and Taking Up Residency in Vegas

It looks like there is gonna be a show down in the wild wild west! A pop showdown that is.

Reports are claiming that the 'Artpop' singer has been in talks with the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas to take up a residency at their hotel.

Sounds familiar doesn't it?

The National Enquirer is reporting that Gaga is close to signing a deal with the hotel to create a similar show to that of pop icon Britney Spears, who is currently completing a two year residency at Planet Hollywood.

A source tells the tabloid that Gaga is sick of the high demand that she is under while she is on the road touring, and that she would find the idea of performing at one arena appealing.

The singer is getting ready to launch the US leg of her 'Artpop' tour on May 4 in Fort Lauderdale.

Could the real reason she wants to do a residency be that she is looking to settle down with her boyfriend Taylor Kinney?

Recent rumors have been circling that Kinney has been secretly shopping for engagement rings. The pair has been dating for two years and have generally kept a low profile in the public eye. A source tells the tabloid that "Taylor's been looking at engagement rings for a couple of months. He has told a couple of his close guy friends that he wants to propose soon."

As far as when he plans to pop the questions the source tells the news outlet that "Taylor was considering proposing over her birthday but he hadn't found the right ring in time."

We would only expect the most extravagant ring for mother monster. The National Enquirer reports that Taylor "wants to find something unique that will suit her personality."

Could wedding bells be in the air for Gaga?
