a tangled beauty & a friend of six (*** possible magic spoiler ***)

[perlster]

It's been a long time since I posted this kind of thing, but this one was quite surprising, since I had never known that Belle might hang around with Rapunzel.

I've seen this particular young lady several times appearing like this:

On Saturday, for the first time (but in the same spot) I saw her looking like:

I think it's also worth noting that all six performances in the Royal Theatre were of Beauty and the Beast

I have a picture with this same Belle from Tink weekend (Jan. 18), and pictures of my DD with this same Rapunzel from two weekends later (Feb. 1).

I am very happy that DD hasn't noticed the striking resemblance yet, but I sure have!

Wow, they even give face characters contacts to change their eye color? Disney is so awesome.

 

[Rubygoose]

I don't think that's the same woman. If you look carefully at the freckles on their faces and chests, they're in different places.

 

[perlster]

I was there. I know that Belle and Rapunzel were very close.

You do realize that different characters don't apply makeup the same way, right?

I'd say it's different make-up shades and how the flash hit her face.

I tried to look through my pictures to see if there were any that were more clearly convincing, but all of my Belle pics have her turned to the side and chin slightly down (just like Perlster's), and all of the Rapunzel ones are straight-on. Actually, now that I think about it, that's most likely deliberate.

For me, it's the teeth that seal the deal. Well, that and seeing it with my own eyes.

It is amazing how much a Wig, Dress, Makeup, and Contacts can change a Character. Most performers have several rolls. Some combinations will surprise you. I think I can find a better Belle photo that will confirm the first post.

Here is an Tinkerbell/Alice. I have talked to her as both several times.

So true, I went to school with a beautiful blonde gal who played Snow White and Megara. She stated that Disney teaches them how to apply makeup for each face character. Their transformation is pretty amazing.

Anyone know if Tangled has been played lately? I'm wondering if they've pulled it or are changing something since my daughter was hit with the frying pan

Tangled has been played every day but one in the last week.
It was the first three shows today.

Whew! Thank you!

 

[perlster]

Actually, thanks to the caption of the top photo (I could post a similar one), I can surmise that Tangled was not performed at least twice last week (Tuesday and Saturday). Since no one is talking, one guess is that Flynn Rider may not be around as much as he used to be. The better possibility (at least for visitors) is that he was sick.

Getting OT, but the cutbacks in character appearances are stunning in their breadth, suddenness, and lack of explanation.

 

[Disneyland 1951]

Flynn was out roaming around the Fantasy Fair last week without Rapunzel!
He actually had to find guests to talk to. A small Rapunzel refused to get near him or talk to him.



When he was in the shade most people ignored him and walked past.

I'm not disagreeing with you since you were there, but how far apart were those pictures taken? They don't look alike at all to me. The cheekbones are completely different, but the teeth really don't look the same. Like others have said, make up can change things a lot, but I would have never guessed this to be the same person.

The Belle/Rapunzel looks like it is the same, but the Tink/Alice does not. Look at the teeth...it's one thing that doesn't change.

For the villains a lot of times CMs who are friends with The Queen often also hang out with Cruella. We've met two, at least, that are friends with both...it's so hard to tell, even with pictures side by side, because the make up is so different!

 

[TwinPrincessMermaids]

The Belle/Rapunzel looks like it is the same, but the Tink/Alice does not. Look at the teeth...it's one thing that doesn't change.

Yes, being a former make up artist, I looked at Belle's/Rapunzel's eyebrows (they are slightly uneven as most are) and she definitely looks like the same person for sure.

Alice and Tink are not, their facial framing (the smile creases etc) are not the same.

Rapunzel, Belle, Tiana (wait, that would be difficult ) they are ALLLL great to me!

She has awesome green eyes. I wish I could be a princess all day. This on Disney's Castaway Cay with swarms of kiddies in awe of their island being taken over by mermaids is probably the closest I'll ever get...

There is a gal that has been friends with Anna, Rapunzel, Ariel, Merida, Rosetta, and Snow White. Makeup sure does alter appearance. Look at the photos of Merida, Ariel, Rapunzel & Anna [below] and those of Snow White @ https://flic.kr/p/a9U45f & Rosetta @ https://flic.kr/p/bzLi8M, I'll bet there will be some skeptics.

On YouTube, here she is with Anna, Merida, Snow White, Rapunzel, and Rosetta

 

[TwinPrincessMermaids]

Wow. She is GORGEOUS! I think the CA face princesses are better looking than the ones in Fl! I mean, it is CA so all the models and actresses go out there looking for work, but these photos are stunning gals!

 

[perlster]

She's even more gorgeous in the flesh. I think one reason she has been friends with so many princesses (and a fairy) is that her eyes are actually close to the "Disneyish" appearance seen in recent Princess depictions..
