ARTPOPdidntflop 3,987 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's fine but her lines and narrative are so ****ing TERRIBLE that she can't even show how good she can be. So true. Her lines could be so much better Apart from the odd funny line, her conversational parts get boring sometimes Gaga x Nicki x Azealia x Ariana x Kesha x Bey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus 34,380 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 So true. Her lines could be so much better Apart from the odd funny line, her conversational parts get boring sometimes I will say though that her first scenes in last night's episode were amazing. Like when she explains what she did with the mom's son. That was brilliant Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryhanna 3,507 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Honestly, it's pretty 'meh.' I enjoy her character, as it's a pretty interesting villain. Visually, Gaga has the perfect look to fit the character, but I don't think her actual acting is that strong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much episode I noticed but especially in previous episodes where there is extended dialogue. I can't even name a specific part because none of it stands out to me Gaga x Nicki x Azealia x Ariana x Kesha x Bey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester 6,314 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 She's great imo, but she does put on a weird accent in some scenes (where you can't actually tell if it was on purpose or what) and I'm still waiting for a scene where her character shows some weakness and different emotions.... But all in all she's amazingHer body language and acting when she's not speaking is literally flawless! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcina Dimitrescu 1,156 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Sometimes i think she is trying to sound like Jessica Lange. I wonder if she will have a cameo in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetEscape 654 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I think she's pretty good Hoping Elizabeth will have more vulnerable moments so her acting can shine more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chump 1,093 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I think she has problems with her voice. It's a bit squeaky so she has to turn it into a whisper almost every time she speaks. I don't think it's a feature of the Countess herself, it's just that Gaga can't do it other way Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicole 1,809 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Her acting is great, although I think the dialogue is very cheesy and could be a lot better - that's not her wrongdoing though. I think The Countess' story is very slow moving though and hard to completely judge her acting because we don't know a whole lot about her - I feel like we should know more by now, in fact the entire season is very slow moving.

Andy McQueen 4,484 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I think it's not Emmy-worthy yet - still waiting for her character to have some sort of mental breakdown or emotional flashback scene etc., I think both writers and directors could do better tbh (but visual-wise, I think this season is quite compelling).

Klou 2,414 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I feel like fans are trying to be extra critical due to that "let's not be delusional" thread. She's doing way better than I expected. I've been going on non-fanbase sites and most people think she's at least okay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miracle 14,068 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Accelerating. Great overall. Very dramatic and full of decay. I absolutely love her character and the way she expresses her pain through her gestures / body talk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nativenewyorker 1,190 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 She's done a great job. I think that she adds so much presence to the show and she's brought the Countess to life really well. The only possible issue with her acting is herdelivery can seem a bit consistent and flat but I'd attribute the majority of this to the character herself. She's very old, has a "been there, done that" attitude, aloof, pretentious, stone cold..etc. Like a queen of evil and darkness desperately protecting her throne (the Hotel and her money) and her children. Even in scenes where she is breaking down and crying, there's this armor the Countess has up to protect herself. But yeah, she's convinced me that she can act. This whole experience has made me really excited to see Gaga keep acting as her career progresses so that she can get better. I'd love to see her in films.

arthurhmangum 4,408 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's not "incredible" but it is good. Stressed, depressed, but well dressed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noah X 5,250 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 So by the majority here it seems like her acting is just okay meaning I just won't expect much and that's okay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
