Smile 2: Naomi Scott Compares Her Pop Star Character to Lady Gaga (Exclusive)

Naomi Scott chats with ET's Cassie DiLaura about her 'Smile 2' pop star character, Skye Riley, saying she feels grateful to have gotten the horror film role, and shares how she channeled early 2010s Lady Gaga and that era to create her character. Plus, Naomi details what she hopes fans take away after watching the movie, which hits theaters on Oct. 18.

I always thought her character's look was similar to Gaga's 2017 Super Bowl look.

I knew it!! It was giving Gaga since I saw the preview

The song grieved you sounds like tate McRae

She's lady gaga jr.

The Skye Riley EP is amazing, i want more music from Naomi Scott, i’ve been listening to her for years

[@BlackSabbathfan]

Naomi Scott is already a singer in real life, so hopefully this film will help her launch a mainstream singing career. Also it's funny to see her on the Drew Barrymore show.

[@MysticMayne]

Exactly

[@tattooedandy93]

I forget Naomi is British. She's so underrated. She was phenomenal in Aladdin and was hilarious in Charlie's Angels.
She can sing, dance and act. Triple threat!!!

[@iio4eva]

It’s slept on Naomi has her own amazing indie pop music out there in the world.
And after Aladdin she was recruited to be an Angel for Charlie.
She’s done a lot but this is coming back from a break with a massive bang.
Love this for her.

She was an angel before she was Jasmine

@iio4eva damn I'm sorry then I just checked, I was so suuure 😩 my bad, I just saw Angels before I knew about her role in Alladin

[@MysticMayne]

Vows, So Low, Undercover, i’ve been listening to her music for years

@@MysticMayne her first EP is probably my favourite, Hear the Bells really has her sing her heart out

Let us not forget the pink ranger aswell. Man wish we got a part 2

[@geekyheadquarters]

Same here. The Power Rangers movie was good but unfortunately, some of the die hard fans of the franchise disagree.

[@steveandjeanniefrith236]

I dont. It was a nice experiment but Power Rangers should remain family friendly. Plus they wanted a female Tommy Oliver. Bad idea. It was ill advised.

[@geekyheadquarters]

@@steveandjeanniefrith236 The female Tommy Oliver was literally just a rumor. There was no confirmation if they were planning on gender bending the character. And maybe you are right about Power Rangers should stay family friendly since that movie wasn’t made for the general audience in mind as well since it had that PG-13 rating which is another reason why it failed. But I did like the story arcs of the characters which made them feel relatable and I think you’re going to disagree on and that is okay.

[@steveandjeanniefrith236]

@@geekyheadquarters No I liked the characters. Especially Zordon who was good but flawed.

[@steveandjeanniefrith236]

@@geekyheadquarters I wanted Lord Zedd and Rito and Master Vile and the Alien Rangers.

[@EagerCompass-mm7gj]

When i saw the trailer on screen for Joker, I almost thought the Gaga part showed up.

[@WanderingMachine]

She was truly phenomenal!

[@saadswg]

Gaga ❤

[@ISSADOLLZ]

she’s so gone will always be iconic

[@flowersforyou-c5l]

I got more Miley Cyrus vibes from Skye

[@m00nl1ghtba3]

2:17 um she was a pop star in another life. in lemonade mouth duhhh.

[@HopeTixe]

Can't wait to watch 👻

[@Elfangel85]

Why did you add the background music? I want to turn it off immediately. In fact I'll close the video now

[@StevenBHorrorFan]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@gabbyb7347]

Lady Gaga wishes she was in this instead of that Joker 2 trainwreck 😂😂😂😂😂😅

[@gregorcrawford3020]

Gosh, that hair cut looks fantastic on her

Relax journalist

[@Thenightisyoung111]

Have you noticed a trend in the past couple years where the journalists kiss up to the celebrities more than they use to? They act more like fans than journalists now. It’s so odd.

[@Maruuvegas]

LEMONATE MOUTH I KNEW HER AND ALADDIN

[@anoenymous6213]

looks more similar to miley's bangerz era and some of katy perry's witness era

[@simonstevenson6686]

I was thinking more like Miley Cyrus maybe

[@Idiosyncratic7716]

This interviewer is so loud

That makes the movie way scarier 😂😂😂😂

Her character is nothing like Lady Gaga. She is more like Katy Perry in her Witness hate train era
