Goth Chic Galore: Lady Gaga & Jenna Ortega's Spectacular Look at Netflix's Gala
GOING DARK: Lady Gaga and Jenna Ortega Unleash Their Inner Goth Goddesses at the Wednesday Graveyard Gala
Last night, the crème de la crème of Hollywood's elite descended upon Guastavino's in New York City for the most anticipated event of the season - Spotify and Netflix's Wednesday Graveyard Gala. And who better to bring the drama than the one and only Lady Gaga? The 39-year-old superstar stunned in a show-stopping, corseted black chiffon gown that left everyone speechless.
But Gaga wasn't alone in her goth goddess glory - she was joined by the lead star of Netflix's hit show Wednesday, Jenna Ortega. The 22-year-old actress looked every bit the queen bee in a skintight gray tie-dye gown with ruching at the bust and diagonal cutouts running down to her lower back. Her dark hair was gelled into a head-turning wet look that added to her mysterious allure.
The two ladies-in-dark were spotted posing together, flashing their signature goth vibes for the cameras. They were joined by fellow Wednesday stars Emma Myers and Joy Sunday, who also brought their A-game to the red carpet. Emma looked sassy in a denim crop top and baggy jeans, while Joy wowed in a black and white polka dot dress that showcased her curves.
But the real scoop of the night was Gaga's announcement about her new single, "The Dead Dance", which is set to drop on September 3 - the same day as Part Two of Wednesday Season Two. Yes, you read that right - fans will get not one but two doses of the addictive show and its killer soundtrack in just a few weeks' time.
Gaga took to the stage to confirm her cameo appearance in the second series of Wednesday and even gave a sneak peek into what's to come. "I had an absolute blast working on this show, especially with Tim Burton and Jenna," she gushed. "It's been an incredible experience, and I'm so grateful to be a part of it." And then, the moment everyone was waiting for - she dropped the bombshell about her new single: "And I'm also here to confirm that my song 'The Dead Dance' is coming...on September 3!"
But what really got fans buzzing was the viral dance scene from Season One, set to Lady Gaga's iconic track "Bloody Mary". The showstopping moment has been making waves on social media, and it seems like this season will be just as explosive.
So, who else made an appearance at the highly anticipated gala? Emma Norton rocked a stunning black dress with ruffled sleeves and a long braid, while Haley Kalil wowed in an off-the-shoulder black lace jumpsuit. And let's not forget the show's creators, Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, who were also spotted mingling with the stars.
As for Wednesday itself? The second series of the supernatural mystery comedy hit Netflix on August 6, with a whopping 78% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Daily Mail's Christopher Stevens awarded it four out of five stars, praising its "superstar cameos" and addictive storyline.
The show follows the life of Wednesday Addams (Jenna) as she navigates her boarding school Nevermore Academy, where students with magical abilities come to develop their powers. With a star-studded cast including Joanna Lumley, Steve Buscemi, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Luis Guzmán, this season promises to be just as thrilling as the first.
So, what are you waiting for? Get ready to sink your teeth into Wednesday Season Two and get ready to dance the night away with Lady Gaga's "The Dead Dance" on September 3. Trust us, you won't want to miss it!
Wednesday Part One is streaming now on Netflix, while Part Two follows on September 3.
