Lady Gaga Is Already Filming In Europe For The Show

The Netflix series adapts cartoonist Charles Addams’ classically spooky characters, The Addams Family. The show looks at family daughter Wednesday, played by actress Jenna Ortega, attending a boarding school.

In one scene during the first season, Wednesday attends a school dance dressed in a black gown. While there, she dances to the song “Goo Goo Muck” from The Cramps. However, fans uploaded the scene online, replacing the song with Lady Gaga’s “Bloody Mary.”

The edited version of the scene eventually went viral online. Lady Gaga herself eventually paid homage to the meme online through a video on Tik Tok. The singer could be seen mimicking Wednesday’s dance on the show. All set to “Bloody Mary,” Gaga dubbed the video, “Bloody Wednesday.”

Jenna Ortega Even Said What Kind Of Character Gaga Should Play

On X, a promotional account presented in-character by “Wednesday Addams” herself also discussed the meme. As it shared, “I see you doing my dance moves to @LadyGaga ’s Bloody Mary. I understand she is followed by little monsters. I approve.”

Gaga herself later responded to the post, sharing that, “Slay Wednesday! You’re welcome at Haus of Gaga anytime (and bring Thing with you, we love paws around here.)”

While at the Golden Globes in 2023, Ortega herself also shared that she wanted Gaga to appear in the show’s second season.

Speaking with Variety, Ortega even revealed the kind of role she’d think would be good for the singer. As she shared, she felt she should play a similar character to Mrs. Thornhill.

“I think Mrs. Thornhill and Wednesday had this weird mentor relationship or kind of understood each other in a certain way, so, if Lady Gaga were to be a part, I think it would have to be two monsters that understand each other.”
