Lady Gaga to guest star in second season of 'Wednesday'
The pop queen is all set to be seen in the second season as a guest star, People magazine reported.
At Netflix's Tudum 2025 live event last week, the streaming giant unveiled the first six minutes of the show's highly anticipated second season.
After a nearly three-year wait, fans finally got to see what kind of spooky shenanigans Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) gets up to this season.
The footage begins with Wednesday tied up in a serial killer's basement -- "who said nightmares don't come true?" -- surrounded by life-size dolls. "He's under the delusion that I'm his next victim," she says. "I'll let him cherish that notion while I explain my predicament."
A flashback from six weeks earlier then takes place, showing Wednesday spending her summer vacation doing what any normal teen would be doing: mastering her psychic ability.
Back on stage at Tudum, the Wednesday cast revealed that Lady Gaga will be joining season 2 in a guest starring role. The details regarding her character were not disclosed.
Interestingly, Gaga performed at the event, delivering a show-stopping performance, including Bloody Mary as well as her hit song Abracadabra.
Gaga stepped out from a vertical coffin amid a sea of background dancers dressed in the vein of Gomez Addams (Luis Guzman), singing track Zombieboy off of her recently released Mayhem, Deadline reported.
Part 1 of the hit series' second season will debut August 6, with Part 2 following September 3.

CEO Caught Hugging HR Chief at Coldplay Concert Goes Viral
Coldplay's Boston concert had all the usual vibes—lights, hits, and singalongs—but the internet had its eyes on something else entirely: a now-viral moment involving Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and his company's HR Chief Kristin Cabot. All Eyes on the Jumbotron As Chris Martin performed, the camera panned to the crowd and landed on Byron and Cabot in a very close embrace. The second they realized they were live on the big screen, both quickly pulled away and awkwardly tried to dodge the spotlight—literally. Chris Martin's Spicy Comment Chris Martin didn't miss a beat. Seeing the awkward moment unfold, he joked, 'Oh look at these two… either they're having an affair or they're very shy.' That offhand remark sent the internet spiraling. The Plot Thickens What made things even juicier? Reports say Byron is married and lives in New York with his wife, Megan Kerrigan Byron. So naturally, this unexpected display at a concert has led to tons of online speculation and side-eyes. Silence from the Duo So far, neither Byron nor Cabot has made any public statement about what really went down—or what their current relationship status is. But with the clip still making the rounds on TikTok, X, and Instagram, it doesn't look like this will blow over quietly.

6 reasons why Astronomer CEO Andy Byron's video at Coldplay show exploded overnight
Not a single man on Earth would trade places with Astronomer CEO Andy Byron who was caught in an awkward kiss cam moment during Coldplay's recent concert in Massachusetts. One clip from the gig showed the British band's frontman Chris Martin unintentionally putting a spotlight on a man and woman, who were seen on the jumbotron (big screen), standing draped in each other's arms. The two were later identified as Byron and his HR Chief Kristin Cabot. The video went viral so fast, shared many times on social media platforms like X, TikTok and Instagram for so many reasons. Here's a look at factors that added to the online scandal: 1. Epic public exposure What happened with the unlucky CEO was an epic public exposure to say the least—How big can a scandal be if it was exposed during a Coldplay show; an event attended by thousands of loving fans. Moreover, Coldplay shows often feature moments when the band turns the camera on the audience spontaneously, and it's become a beloved part of their live experience. These moments are often shown on the big screen and go viral. Many fans would find it a very fortunate opportunity to be seen on the big screen in one of these moments, but perhaps Byron will not be one of them! From proposals to gender reveals, some fans often make use of the high turnout at the concert and the popularity of the event to mark special personal moments. 2. Chris Martin's comment When the camera focused on Byron and Cabot, both of them quickly moved away and tried to hide their faces as they appeared on the big screen. Seeing their reaction, Chris Martin reportedly quipped, "Oh look at these two... either they're having an affair or they're very shy." Martin's comment on what they did helped unintentionally to raise questions and fuel speculations on an affair. 3. Power of social media Fan videos spread online in no time and garnered millions of views. Just one clip of the incident got over 46,500 views on TikTok, while fans were heard clearly laughing. Some betting platforms even speculated on Byron's future at the data services company. On Kalshi, for instance, the odds suggested a 45% chance that he would step down: 4. Online sleuths As the clips were being shared over and over again, some people volunteered to track down who those guys were and they shortly revealed their identities. Screenshots were taken from Astronomer's leadership page, where both Andy and Cabot are listed as members: 5. Office drama The very idea of a CEO being involved in an extramarital affair scandal with the company's HR chief is highly intriguing—it reminds the public of numerous Hollywood films and instantly grabs public attention. Similar cases include Steve Easterbrook, former CEO of McDonald's, who was fired for having a consensual relationship with an employee, violating company policy on workplace relationships. 6. Meme culture The viral clip provided internet users with fertile material for funny memes and posts. From other men named Andy Byron and changing their bios to make it clear they are not the Andy Byron in the clip to others speculating on vacancies soon in Astronomer as a result of the incident, here are some of the viral takes on the incident: To join the fun, some companies have taken part in the relentless trolling on social media. Netflix, the popular streaming company, posted two photos of Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins saying he likes Coldplay in a screenshot that looks to be from the company's hit show, Quarterback.
