Lady Gaga - whose real name is Stefani Germanotta - has previously featured in cameos in Machete Kills, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For and Muppets Most Wanted and got in touch directly with American Horror creator Ryan Murphy to obtain a part.
Earlier this month, Ryan gave a few more details on Gaga's character when he spoke to Billboard.
'She is a very wealthy social doyenne who is consumed with art, fashion and people and she has a nefarious plan that is revealed in the first episode that plays out over the season,' he said.
