Stevie Nicks is scheduled to play herself, rightfully so, in the FX series American Horror Story: Coven. The show's co-creator Ryan Murphy talked to Entertainment Weekly, revealing the nature of the appearance:
She appears as herself. It's part of Fiona's ruse in that Fiona is trying to get the true Supreme to reveal herself because she needs to stay alive. So she tells Misty Day that the Supreme gets so many great things in life, like tickets to the Oscars and Met Ball tickets. So she brings Stevie Nicks in as a gift to Misty to prove to her that if she exhibits more power she'll get that and more. Then the other girls come home and see Stevie and Misty singing and it starts them trying to move much quicker to prove that they are the Supreme.
Nicks is set to appear in episode 10 of the series. Because of her Fleetwood Mac touring schedule and potentially conflicting dates to shoot it almost didn't happen. But then, unfortunately, the tour was put on hold to accommodate John McVie's cancer treatment.
"Then she called and said, 'I'm now available, sadly enough, if you wanna use me,'" Murphy told EW. "So I said, 'Let's do it!' So she's flying in for like two days and doing her scenes. I know every person in the show is like, 'I better be in that goddamn scene!' It's funny."
American Horror Story, currently following the lives of modern-day witches in New Orleans, has been renewed for a fourth season and is now wrapping up the third.
