Marvel: 5 things we must see from X-Men’s Emma Frost in the MCU
By Mark Lynch
Can Lady Gaga be Emma Frost?
Lady Gaga was phenomenal portraying The Countess in American Horror Story: Hotel. In fact, it was this season of AHS that made this writer believe she’d be perfect for this role. She showed the level of arrogance and manipulation that Emma has had her entire existence in comic books and, on the other hand, we also saw her showcase an emotional side to her character as well.
Before she was a vampire, The Countess mourned over the loss of someone she loved and it was very believable. When Emma loses students, she’ll have to play stone-faced headmistress or teacher in public. In private, she’ll have to cry her eyes out. As we’ve just established, Lady Gaga can do both.
Lady Gaga has the look as well. We’ve seen her dressed in all white or wearing something revealing. She makes it work. Emma Frost uses her beauty to her advantage whenever she can. It wouldn’t be a stretch for Lady Gaga to play the role of evil seductress or the psychic dominatrix in the Hellfire Club. Since Lady Gaga isn’t afraid of her sensuality, she could do this effortlessly.
There’s nothing that Emma Frost can’t do that Lady Gaga can’t emulate. It would be wonderful to see her play the character in a fight against – and later with – the X-Men.
