X-Men: Dark Phoenix - 21 Easter Eggs & References Explained

10. Dazzler's Cameo

Back when Apocalypse came out, it turned out that Taylor Swift had been in line for a brief cameo as mutant pop star Dazzler before the sequence had been cut. Perhaps because that cameo went over so well online, Dazzler actually makes her full debut.

In the party sequence that sees Match's appearance and Jean passing out from the Phoenix's influence, we see Dazzler - played by The Orville's Halston Sage - singing a song and showing off her powers. In the comics, she can transduce sonic vibrations which reach her body into various types of light - in other words, she can turn sound into a light show, as we see in the movie.

Later on, Kitty Pryde also seems to appear in the Xavier Mansion. Or at least her phasing through the walls suggests it's her.
