As a lieutenant on the Chicago fire, Taylor Kinney is often at the center of extreme flames. But now, he feels the heat for a shady act about his ex-fiancée Lady Gaga.
Kinney, 37, shared an Instagram photo with a retired NHL player Bryan Bickell Sunday, February 24, the same day that Gaga, 32, won his first Oscar for his role in A star is born. In the comments section, several fans urged the actor to meet with the singer "Bad Romance" following his recent separation from the fiance. Christian Carino.
An Instagram user, however, felt that Kinney had avoided a ball when he and Gaga canceled their engagement in 2016. "Nice to have escaped you at Gaga. #Hollyweird, "wrote the troll. Although the Vampire Diary alun did not type an answer to the comment, eagle-eyed fans noticed that he "liked" it.
"Man Taylor, how are you going to love this rude boy? Lost all respect smh, "replied a disciple in the comments. Another fan pointed out that Kinney may have "liked by mistake".

The former couple had met in July 2011 on the shooting of the clip "Yoü and I" of the pop star, in which Kinney played his love interest. They started dating soon after, got engaged on Valentine's Day 2015 (with a diamond ring in the shape of a heart!) And finally left it in July 2016.
"Taylor and I always thought we were soul mates," Gaga wrote on Instagram at the time. "Like all couples, we have ups and downs and we take a break. We are both ambitious artists, hoping to work with complex and long-distance schedules to pursue the simple love we have always shared. Please, we root on. We are like everyone else and we really love each other. "
