Wednesday, 06 August 2025
What happens when Wednesday Addams becomes everyone’s go-to aesthetic? Jenna Ortega says she’s still amazed that girls at parties began copying Wednesday’s expressionless look after watching her on Netflix. The 22 year-old revealed that fans started showing up at social events with no smiles and bold eyeliner, mimicking the mood proof teen—and calling her character part of pop culture identity. Jenna sees the global reaction as both surreal and gratifying. She’s proud the show has empowered young people to embrace emotionless expression and gothic style, making incredibly clear that girls who don’t smile are still being seen.
