Know the story of Lady Gaga’s just two-minute cameo in Wednesday S2 Part 2.
Waiting even a minute felt too long
When Netflix promoted Lady Gaga as Rosaline Rotwood in Wednesday Season 2 Part 2, everyone was eagerly waiting for her arrival.
But when her cameo came in Episode 6, a mere two-minute glimpse left fans feeling very dissatisfied.
Such a short screen time led to a flood of angry posts on social media—questions like “What is this for such a hyped role?” arose.
Shades of fans’ anger
- “Gagaroldinn se milana chahta tha, mile bas do minute ke pal”
- “Heptade dekhne hi naasha hai lagi”
- “CGI scene was not worth watching.”
Some understood that it was just a small touch, but most questioned the show’s team, calling Gaga underused.
The essence of the original scene
In Episode 6, Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday visits Rosaline’s grave to regain her lost sixth sense.
Gaga emerges as the old Nevermore professor and explains, “The crack in your monochrome dress is your overbearing arrogance.”
The spell is broken shortly after by the appearance of Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers) and the twist of the two body swapping.
Entry of “The Dead Dance”
The new song “The Dead Dance” was heard in Episode 7, when Enid and Agnes (Evie Templeton) were performing.
Gaga herself was not on screen, but her music still took the breath away.
She told Tudum.com that the song had already sparked a strong passion for the role:
“When the worlds of pop, music and Tim Burton meet, something special is created.”
Will fans’ perception change?
There is still time till the show’s finale. Some people believe that Gaga’s short appearance has left an opportunity to weave mystery.
At the same time, many felt that even in such a short glimpse, she stole the camera.
The Dead Dance, Rosaline Rotwood, or any two-minute moment—Lady Gaga has proved that her mark can be left even in a very short time.
Now it remains to be seen how her absence is compensated in the finale.
