J. Smith-Cameron's Wintour-Inspired Role in Elsbeth

On April 2nd, Jay Smith Cameron brings a killer role to the CBS show Elzbeth, channeling

Bives from Fashion Queen Anna Wintour.

Her character is not a straight impression, but a fanatical copycat obsessed with mimicking

the Vogue Boss' iconic style from the Bob haircut to the attitude.

Smith Cameron dreamed of the concept herself, grabbing a budget pageboy bobwag online to

nail the disguise.

She layered on a half-baked English accent, turning the role into someone hiding behind

a glamour's facade for some real fun on screen.

Fans might spot the nod if they know Wintour, but Smith Cameron stresses it's all admiration.

She once set next to the real deal at a fashion show.

Sun glasses an all, and found her surprisingly warm and engaging despite the icy reputation.

The character pops up in the April 3rd episode, where Elzbeth tangles with her as the bossy

director of a swanky debutant ball turn murder.

Seemed complete with a sword stabbing.

The series packs and star cameos from folks like Matthew Broderick and Laurie Metcalf, keeping

things fresh around Carrie Preston's quirky detective.

Elzbeth drops new episodes, Thursdays at 10pm, Eastern on CBS, streaming next day on Paramount

Plus, blending crime-solving with light-hearted twists.

That hit just right.
