Lady Gaga Transforms To Play Rosalie Rotwood In 'Wednesday' On Netflix

The internet and Halloween lovers have been buzzing since the second season of Wednesday was released on Netflix a few weeks ago. The spin-off series, which is based on the iconic spooky Addams Family series, follows Wednesday Addams, famously portrayed by Jenna Ortega, and her antics as she attends a new school.

 

In the second season, Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, stars as Rosalie Rotwood, a teacher at the school Wednesday attends, and her new acting role was a very pleasant surprise for her fans. It's been a busy year for the vocalist, as not only did she release her latest album, Mayhem, but she has also been in the middle of her massive Mayhem Ball tour, which thousands of thrilled fans have been attending.

 

In addition to writing, recording, and filming a music video for a song that's on the Wednesday season 2 soundtrack, "Dead Dance," she makes a brief appearance as Rosalie in the sixth episode of the new season. In the show and promotional pictures, the 39-year-old can be seen in a long, stark white wig. She also has bleached eyebrows, a look she's worn in the past.

 

In her episode, Lady Gaga can be seen wearing an all-white outfit, including an eerie veil and a silky white gown.

Fans React To Lady Gaga's Character Transformation On Social Media

Once promotional pictures of the Star Is Born actress were shared on social media platforms like Instagram, they began buzzing and raving over how fitting she looked in the role. While she's been known for her edgier style, often channeling more gothic themes in her outfits and tour costumes, it was nevertheless still exciting for her fans and other internet users to see her take on such a spooky acting role.

 

Under Instagram pictures of the star, fans wrote comments to support her latest performance.

 

"Didn't see this coming!" wrote an enthusiastic fan.

 

"I'm excited," added another.

 

"This is what the people want," commented a fan who is seemingly excited to see Gaga acting again.

 

One Instagram user felt the singer's new look for the character was just right for her, writing, "It suits her vibe."

 

"She was born to play roles like this," added another.

 

We'll be curious to see if the singer makes frequent appearances on the popular Tim Burton show, but for now, fans are enjoying every few shots they can get of her on their screens.
