Lady Gaga confirmed for Netflix's Wednesday

Lady Gaga has been confirmed to appear in the second season of Netflix's Wednesday.

Lady Gaga joins Wednesday cast and performs at Tudum 2025

Lady Gaga's cameo in the second season of Netflix's Wednesday was confirmed at the Tudum 2025 event on May 31. She will portray Rosaline Rotwood, a revered Nevermore teacher. Her character is set to appear in the season's second half, which releases on September 3, following the first half on August 6. During the event, Gaga also performed her songs "Zombieboy" and "Abracadabra." Following her performance, a sped-up remix of Gaga's "Bloody Mary" became hugely popular on TikTok in conjunction with a dance trend inspired by Jenna Ortega's character. Additionally, Gaga set a record for the largest attendance by a female artist at a concert in Rio, despite an unsettling incident involving a bomb threat.

Gaga’s involvement in Wednesday is notable not just for its star power but also for its timing. The show has already generated buzz with Ortega’s performance, and Gaga's entry could attract an even wider audience. This move symbolizes how pop culture continues to intertwine with streaming series, amplifying viewer engagement. However, recent incidents, such as the bomb threat at her Rio concert, remind us of the unpredictable challenges celebrities face today in a fast-changing entertainment landscape.
