"She's marrying a very wonderful man, very talented and very handsome," Bennett said of the pop star and Chicago Fire actor. "I think he's going to be highly successful in films. He's a very nice person."

Bennett confirmed Lady Gaga and her fiancé approached him to sing at the ceremony, but insisted he knows no details, saying, "All I know is, knowing Lady Gaga, it will be fabulous." The couple will reportedly wed at the pop star's Malibu home later this year.
