Poppy's basically the patron saint of bad TV movies, and she's already played two famous people: Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling in Magic Beyond Words, and Marilyn Monroe in Blonde.
The only downside is her age: She's about ten years older than Gaga... but she still has a good body (if you Google image search her, you'll find her Maxim shoots), so she could maybe pull it off? Or there could be a frame story where an older and wiser Gaga looks back over her fame. Somehow we have to get Poppy into this movie!
This one's maybe doable: She's a TV star, so it wouldn't be the craziest thing for her to jump over to Lifetime. Thanks to her role as a government agent on Chuck, she's fit, she's funny, and she's used to wearing weird outfits.
She's already played rock legend Cherie Currie--and at least she'd have better hair here!
With a movie like this, you have the dilemma: Do you hire an actor with minimal singing experience, or a singer with minimal acting experience? No one expects an Oscar performance from a Lifetime movie, so the producers might benefit from doing the latter. Plus, Gaga herself is a public supporter of this American Idol contestant!
Except that she would play it oh-so-ironically.
I didn't know much about Kreayshawn before I posted the photo of her with Rebecca Black earlier in the week--but wow, she does look a bit like Gaga. The same goes for a pic like this, when she's playing around with long blond hair. And both credit their Internet followings with their fame.
Like Gaga, Blake's a fashion muse, so we've already had the benefit of seeing her in a bunch of (often questionable) designs.
The Dancing with the Stars pro-turned-actress is definitely leaning toward projects with a lot of song and dance: She appears in Footloose next week, and will also star in the movie version of Broadway musical Rock of Ages.
She made TNT's sci-fi series Falling Skies great, but Sarah also has the theater background to play a pop star.

Our top choice--why not keep it within the family? Gaga's been trying to bring her 19-year-old sister into the fold anyway; this photo is from Natali's cameo as a prisoner in the "Telephone" music video. And when it comes to resemblance, you don't get any better than this.

Interestingly though the casting call for this as a picture of Stefani before she was Gaga and specifically asked for submissions that looked like that photo – she was a brunette then and much more etnic looking than any of these actors!
Yvoone Strahovski!!!
