Character through lighting

I would like to create a crazy glam rock character that is way more awesome in her mind than in reality. sorta like the videos below. The lighting would be dramatic as well as hazy to make it feel dream like and in her mind.

I am not sure that you are describing the type of lighting in these videos correctly. The first video has some dramatic lighting, but there is a centralized bright light in which the individuals move into. Whereas the other videos lighting is so flat. Everything (the room, props, attire) are all similar colors making the scene very dual looking. (excluding the creepy women)

I think that potentially this could be a little difficult to portray because I don't identify a certain mood right away because it is a video and not a still. How I understand this character that you want to do, I see this person with very soft lighting that takes away all blemishes that transform her into this ideal person where it does make her stand out like I'm a star.
