The last time we discussed Stevie Nicks it was to excitedly say she would be appearing on an episode of American Horror Story, but those were the only details we had. Until now.

When asked by Entertainment Weekly about her cameo, creator Ryan Murphy revealed, "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."

Murphy further revealed that Nicks will be brought in for episode ten after the show has had their winter break.

Explained the creator, "I had a really good conversation with her and explained to her what the show was and it’s gotten such a big reaction from people. She said, 'Oh I wish I could be on the show.' But she couldn’t because she was traveling with Fleetwood Mac in Europe but then Mick Fleetwood got cancer so they cancelled those dates. Then she called and said, 'I’m now available sadly enough. If you wanna use me.' 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."
