I love the show, but my feelings on this season of "American Horror Story" are split. At first, I was obsessed, but at this point in the season, the show is losing me a bit. The one thing that has kept me watching is The Countess a.k.a. Lady Gaga. This woman is absolutely killing the game, here's why:
1. She's the hottest vampire to ever exist.
Let me rephrase that. According to co-creator Ryan Murphy, she's not a vampire, just a blood-sucker with a virus—but for all of us watching from home, she's basically a vampire. Every single man on the show is in love with her. What's great about The Countess is that she can walk outside without worrying about glittering in the sunlight, not that she needs to since she basically rules the hotel. Sorry Edward Cullen, but your days are over.
2. Her boys.
I'm not talking about her little virus infected children, I'm talking about Donovan (Matt Bomer) and Tristan (Finn Wittrock). From helping her scope out new victims to just keeping her company, these guys are there for her. The Countess doesn't even have to try; she just has these guys wrapped around her finger. How she does it? No clue, wish I had the same skills.
3. Wardrobe. Makeup. Hair.
I could go on and on about how incredible the behind-the-scenes team is on making her look the way she does. No matter what they do to her hair and makeup, it always looks the best out of everyone on the show. The Countess could have blood all over her face, and I would still envy her for it. Maybe it's because every other women on the show doesn't dress as extravagantly, but she sure knows how to stand out! Every outfit put on The Countess looks like it is right off the runway still on the model.
4. She's loving.
To clarify, she's loving towards her children. Her reasoning for kidnapping Holden was to save him. Somehow she knew that his real parents were going to have problems, and sure enough they do. The Countess even gave the virus to Holden's real mother, per her request, just so they could be together again. Talk about a sweetheart.
5. She's clever.
Brains and beauty: she's got it all. No matter what happens, she's somehow one step ahead of the game and always wins. Just a few episodes ago she found out Tristan was falling in love with another person at the hotel, bartender Liz Taylor. When The Countess was told that Liz was in love with Tristan, she said they could be together. After a minute of being freely in love, The Countess slit Tristan's throat right in front of Liz.
6. She kills the game... literally.
No one walks into that hotel without The Countess knowing. If someone is there and she doesn't want them there, she kills them. If someone tries messing with her children, she kills them. If someone tries messing with her men, she kills them. If someone tried messing with her hotel, chances are she's going to kill them. She literally goes out into public, seduces random humans, brings them back to the hotel, hooks up with them, and then kills them.
I don't see how "American Horror Story" will ever be able to top The Countess; she is hands down the most badass character to come out of the show.
