The Hottie & the Nottie
If Paris Hilton is the Hottie in The Hottie and the Nottie, there's only one other female role left. The otherwise attractive Christine Lakin donned hours of disgusting makeup to make herself look so repulsive, no man could get through her to get to her hot friend.
Lakin the Nottie
"It was about two and a half hours on a really hardcore day where I had to do my legs with hair, and the bruising and the pimples and the toenail, and with the whole shebang," said Lakin. "It was close to almost three."
After all that buildup, the final look was not such a shock to Lakin. "They had me turned around away from the mirror because I think they didn’t want me to start getting freaked out halfway through, and be like, ‘Screw it, I’m not doing this.’ But when they first turned me around, I was a little shocked at first, I thought I looked a little bit like a cave woman, that was the closest thing I could kind of, with the eyebrow and everything. It took a couple of seconds to get used to, but it was everything that I had talked about and so much of the character in that moment of me seeing myself in the mirror really started to come to life. I loved looking at myself in the mirror and like making faces and kind of playing around with it and baring my teeth, my ugly teeth to people, especially her."

Lakin actually went out in the Nottie makeup and didn't do too badly with the boys. "Oh yeah, the Nottie was out ‘til about three. It was fantastic. The Nottie had a very good Wednesday. But it was funny, there was just an utter sense of confusion of us walking in and people looking at her and being like, ‘Oh it’s Paris… oh, who is that unfortunate girl next to her?’ A lot of people didn’t realize, didn’t know it was our characters in the movie, so some people were just literally looking at us who I think were from out of town, trying to take pictures of her and trying not to get me in them. It was very funny."
Honestly, it was not full makeup. "We called the makeup artist from the movie, he still had my mole, he still had my hair, my eyebrows, and I told him I didn’t want to do this. It’s just too involved to put the hair on [my upper lip], but I put a hat on and I called the costume guy and he still had my dress that I wore in the movie, so I called her and I was like, 'I’m ready to go. I’m going to go over there, is everything cool?’ She’s like, ‘Come on.’ So, yeah, I pretty much went, got ready for an hour or so, and then met her out and – it was funny, like we had a blast doing it."
The Hottie & the Nottie opens to theaters February 8th.
