Jenna Ortega says they changed everything on Wednesday set when Gaga was coming

[monketsharona 82,313]

“I remember showing up to set and they completely changed everything. They replaced my dirty tent with, like, brand new tents. I had a barber’s chair, they gave me fancy water. We really wanted to impress her. And then, the next day, I went back to my dusty setup.”

At one hand i feel that the Wednesday crew really want to make Gaga special...on the other, it felt like it's Gaga's team's request...so it felt diva-ish to me

Third option: Gaga herself said "let's make it nice for everybody". I guess they easily could have just rolled in their own trailer, stock it and leave again next day

Pretty sure Jenna is joking. She has that sarcastic type of humor.

I assume Wednesday's setup, since it is "only" a Netflix series and Jenna herself is at B-level and doesn't really know the circumstances of an A-level movie filming, which not only Gaga, but anyone A-level actor would have gotten automatically.

Omg not her calling @River’s house a “dirty tent”.

So they filmed her part in only a day? Her part must be a minor cameo then.

I tend to mess the house before guests are coming so they will not stay much, I'm not a 5 stars hotel, barely half star

Omg that reminds me of that time they looked at my university for its ranking and our labs and library had a load of brand new computers for a whole day

I keep thinking she's gonna be at a desk in an office, like a couple meeting scenes

I think people like Gaga as a person, but .... gotta ask this .... as an actress is she a problem on set ? If you listen to everything Jenna says about her in this interview, there does seem to be diva stuff going on.

And I wanna know what happened with JFAD. Why all the rewrites, and the resultant mess ? I watched the bts videos of JFAD, and the one that focussed on Lee definitely implied that Gaga wasn't easy.

Most of the people who have worked with her over the years said she's a pleasure to work with, very committed, disciplined, humble and nice to get along with. I think she does have an authority when it comes to music because well, she more than deserves it, but with films she always seems very grateful and willing to learn.

JFAD knowing how obsessed she is with the creative proccess, I think she just went along with Todd Phillip's and Joaquin's method of rewriting scripts and improvising.

There are some bts videos of JFAD. One of them focuses on Lee, and I think it's none too subtle about suggesting that there was an issue. Even in Five Foot Two, on the set of AHS she has what she herself describes as a mini-meltdown, and she laughs at herself, but it did happen. Having said all that, there is also footage of a genuinely warm embrace between herself and Todd as they wrap up filming of JFAD.

I wonder is she too much of a perfectionist. I presume if you're making a movie it's a case of 'whatever else we do we gotta get this in the can by such and such a date', and everyone needs to keep that at the forefront, and maybe she struggles with that. That's MAJOR reaching by me 🤣, but I do wonder.
