By all accounts, previews, interviews, and teaser photos releases so far from the Scream Queens set, Emma Roberts’s HBIC character Chanel is going to be ferocious.

“I couldn’t be happier in my life right now”, the actress told FOX411 at the Television Critics Association session for the show in Beverly Hills on Thursday.

Scream Queens wouldn’t have happened without Jamie Lee Curtis: Before Murphy had even finished writing the first script, he approached the Halloweenstar about joining the series.

However, Zayday also knows how to enjoy life and how to have good and clean fun with her friends.

“We are all trying to look and behave in a certain way and this show flays the imagined behaviour of human beings and shows what we really are – inherently dark, unhappy, frustrated human beings who are trying to hold it together”.

“It’s a completely different world in horror, it’s a lot more hard”, Lea said of her new role playing the headgear rocking sorority hopeful Hester, “This is challenging working with a balance of comedy and horror”. “The more the merrier”.

The Glee/AHS creator talks his new FOX show and how it plays death for laughs.

Adding: ‘I’m not the only person who’s been given that direction – every actor on the show. And yes, we have had healthy discussions with broadcast standards.

Veteran actress Jamie Lee Curtis covered her figure in a long sleeve black dress which she paired with yellow high heels. “Everybody right here is sporting a masks, and this present peels off these masks every week and it is sensible”. (It’s worth mentioning, though, that the idea for the show was born during AHS: Coven, a season that Murphy originally wanted to spin off). “And so she’s challenged me and pushed me to be better”. She also reveals that Kevin Kline to this day because she ruined so many of his wonderful takes in A Fish Called Wanda.

“We say what people think”, Curtis said. “What’s interesting about the show is that every week stories come out about the things that these young women say and do in sororities all across the country – hazing rituals, etc”.
