Lady Gaga's character, Rosaline Rotwood, remains an enigma, with limited details available to the fans of the show. From her involvement in the story to her dynamics with Wednesday, there are a lot of aspects about her that the second part of season 2 will unravel.

However, there is more to Rotwood than what is known, as Jenna Ortega, in her recent interview with Entertainment Tonight in August 2025, dropped a clue for what viewers can expect. She said:

"Well, she's (Rotwood) not a teacher. So that's your little clue. Yes, she's not. Whatever you heard, it's wrong."

While this statement stirs curiosity about Rotwood, viewers will get to explore more about the character in the upcoming set of episodes. Ortega also shared her excitement for the singer's presence in the show during a conversation with Netflix Tudum on September 1. She said:

"If you’re into Wednesday, if you’re into Lady Gaga, you should be very excited to see her in Part 2 — it really works. She’s unbelievable. She’s one of the few, rare instances of someone who is so clearly doing what they’re meant to be doing. Just being able to watch her and take her in is a surreal experience."

Catherine Zeta-Jones, who plays the role of Morticia Addams in Wednesday season 2, also expressed how fitting Lady Gaga is for the show. In the same interview with ET, she shared:

"I think the Addams family would just welcome her with open arms. I actually feel that she is probably related, somehow genetically, to the Addams family. Like, the real Addams family, that, you know, bounced off the comic pages."

Zeta-Jones further added:

"But she was an addition that was made in heaven. We'd say hell, which is a good thing, you know."

Luis Guzmán, who stars in the series as Gomez Addams, also made a fun remark on Lady Gaga's presence in the show while speaking to ET. He said:

"I just want to add that as a lawyer, as Gomez Addams, the lawyer, I'm preparing the papers to officially adopt her (Lady Gaga)."
