FX's horror anthology series, American Horror Story, doesn't return until this October, but the first casting announcement might catch you off-guard. While the series is known for bringing back many of the core cast members, the initial casting comes in the form of . . . Lady Gaga? That, I imagine will excite some of you and terrify the rest. In either case, the casting decision works! Gaga has taken minor roles in feature films (SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR, MACHETE KILLS), but she is expected to take up a starring role in season 5 of American Horror Story: Hotel. You can check out her casting announcement done via her Twitter page below!
Aside from some catchy pop tunes, I never really thought much about Lady Gaga before. However, you'll have to lump me in with the group of people who were pleasently surprised with her SOUND OF MUSIC performance at this year's Academy Awards. If she can act as well as she sings, I think she'll fit into American Horror Story quite nicely.
American Horror Story: Hotel will air this October.
She owned it!
