Lady GaGa will play her real life pal Donatella Versace in American Crime Story
Lady Gaga will hit tv screens yet again with American Crime Story. She'll play Donatella Versace and don't they look the spit of each other?
It seems Ryan Murphy and Lady GaGa just can't get enough of each other. Not content with collaborating on two seasons of American Horror Story, the duo is set to reunite once again for season three of American Crime Story.
The second and third season of American Crime Story are set to film concurrently. Thus, Murphy is actively casting the third season of the anthology series which will focus on the murder of fashion designer Gianni Versace. The first name he's added to the cast is Lady GaGa who will play the designer's sister, Donatella.
Gianni was murdered in 1997 by serial killer Andrew Cunanan who then took his own life eight days later as police were pursuing him. Donatella, who assumed control of the Versace fashion empire following her brother's tragic death, is friends with Lady GaGa in real life.
