Gaga addressed the rumors on Wednesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Show, the actress-singer, 32, said, “Yes, people saw love and guess what? That’s what we wanted you to see.”

“Shallow is a love song, A Star Is Born is a love story,” she explained. “It was so important to both of us that we were connected the entire time… When you’re singing love songs, that’s what you want people to feel.”

Shayk unfollowing Gaga on Twitter, and Gaga’s engagement with fiancé Christian Carino ending all seemed to be evidence to the rumor.
