00:00This particular quaff doesn't really go with your face shape.
00:06What do you have in mind?
00:08Welcome to Miss Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the most entertaining,
00:12inventive, and or iconic makeover sequences.
00:15You broke my glasses!
00:17You broke my brush.
00:20Number 10, Tula's New Job, My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
00:24In this modern classic, Tula Portacalos finds herself at a dead end working for her family.
00:28She then becomes inspired to go to college, get a makeover, and find a purpose.
00:41This upbeat montage charts the heroine's journey to a more glamorous life.
00:45Putting on makeup and popping in contacts, the main character asserts herself in some relatable moments.
00:51Nia Vardalos plays the role with a grounded energy.
00:58Through each and every change, we feel for the protagonist as she develops more self-esteem
01:06and puts herself out there.
01:08This sequence means even more when she finds love.
01:11Did you want to see some brochures?
01:13Number 9, Trying on Dresses, Priscilla.
01:19For Sofia Coppola's film, the perspective shifts from the King of Rock to his young love interest.
01:24This sequence illustrates both the title character's naivete and her partner's hold over her.
01:29Trying on various dresses, the lead looks for high density in the midst of being controlled.
01:49The scene features some subtle explorations of the larger relationship.
01:52In just a few looks, you come to realize how both sides interact with each other.
01:57Wow, we have a winner right here.
01:59Absolutely.
02:00I like you and Blew Me Out.
02:01Lose your color.
02:08Priscilla makes these kinds of moments into important showcases of complicated partnership.
02:13With Kaylee Spaney and Jacob Elordi's compelling work, there's an added impact to this makeover.
02:19I like this one.
02:20A solid seat, you better.
02:21I hate brown.
02:23It reminds me of the army.
02:27Number 8, Freshening Up, Encino Man.
02:30Naturally, an unfrozen caveman might need a bath.
02:34Dave and Stoney do their friend a solid with a complete makeover.
02:37Mixing together all kinds of chemicals, the friends create a ridiculous concoction to help the new guy.
02:43I look too sexy for my shirt.
02:45Too sexy for my shirt.
02:47So sexy it hurts.
02:50Brendan Fraser's Link endures the most thorough clean you can imagine.
02:54The guest also doesn't mind drinking anything, prompting a funny gag with some aftershave.
03:06Fraser's character ends up looking much better after a chaotic and almost toxic transformation.
03:11Despite the inexperience of the two helpers, the end result actually worked.
03:16Maybe the two leads could have started their own clean-up service.
03:22Number 7, Valerie's Musical Number, Earth Girls Are Easy.
03:27When Valerie Gale needs a makeover, her friend Candy Pink has the answer.
03:32They embark on a complicated song and dance number to get the job done.
03:35As Gale becomes a brand new woman, she's treated to a more lively sequence than anyone might have expected.
03:40The main character is completely taken care of, along with a catchy song.
03:52With bright colours and a fun routine, this scene stands out for its zany details.
03:56Gale comes to embrace the changes as she becomes more inspired.
04:08Earth Girls Are Easy finds a way to make this cliché all the more entertaining,
04:12with the music only enhancing the film.
04:14Number 6, Loretta's New Hair, Moonstruck
04:27Cher plays the heroine Loretta Castorini in Moonstruck,
04:31but she starts out as the furthest thing from a pop star.
04:34She later meets Nicolas Cage's wild character, Ronnie Camareri, and starts to fall in love.
04:40This prompts a serious makeover, including a major hair change.
04:44It's a positive transformation for a woman that's looking for a second act.
04:56What are you doing? There's something very nice in the middle.
04:58What did you see?
05:00Has anybody here ever been to the opera?
05:02Not me.
05:03She ends up with an incredible glow-up, including a fancy dress and some awesome shoes.
05:09When you finally see her outside the opera, you understand why her date looks stunned.
05:13The performer only has to walk into a scene to wow the viewer.
05:23Hi.
05:25Hi.
05:27You look beautiful.
05:29Number 5, Going Shopping, Pretty Woman
05:31Edward Lewis needs a date, so he hires an escort named Vivian Ward.
05:36His wealthy tastes allow for Ward to go on a shopping spree.
05:39Bubbly and free, Julia Roberts gives her character an extra spark here.
05:43Pretty woman, walking down the street.
05:47Pretty woman, the kind I like to meet.
05:51Her iconic performance makes every moment sing without the need for dialogue.
05:55You might even want to jump through the screen, sitting beside her as she gets pizza and picks out clothes.
06:00We've all wondered what it might be like to have unlimited credit and a chance at revenge.
06:04I was in here yesterday, you wouldn't wait on me?
06:07Oh.
06:08You work on commission, right?
06:10Uh, yes.
06:11Big mistake.
06:13Big.
06:13Huge.
06:14There's also the music cue from Roy Orbison, rounding out this enjoyable montage.
06:19These kinds of fun sequences remind you that this is a certified classic.
06:23Number 4.
06:33Becoming all that.
06:34She's all that.
06:35We're not the only ones wondering why she needed a makeover.
06:39Rachel Lee Cook's Lainey Boggs receives a few pointers from the main jock's sister Mac.
06:43While athletes clean the Boggs' house, Zack Seiler waits for his date to emerge.
06:48Little does he know just how stunning she'll be.
06:51May I present the new, not improved, but different, Lainey Boggs.
06:57You could make fun of this sequence, but it's still effective.
07:00The glasses go, and the hair changes, but Cook's character seems to have a little more confidence.
07:06Lainey Boggs, get your cute butt down here!
07:11Silas is a completely new person, after the small but impactful alterations.
07:16She's All That might be a self-parody at some points, but you can't deny the greatness of the song Kiss Me.
07:34Number 3. Royal Makeover, The Princess Diaries
07:37Mia Thermopolis learns that she's royalty, prompting her grandmother Clarice to give her a makeover.
07:43Beautician Paolo arrives to turn heads and crack whys.
07:46Full of hilarious dialogue, Larry Miller's character comes face to face with a serious challenge.
07:52Do you wear contact lens?
07:55Well, I have them, but I don't really like to wear them that much.
07:58Now, you do.
08:00His tools even break down under the pressure of the lead's hair.
08:04In a star-making role, Anne Hathaway gives the sequence her own charm as she reacts to each change.
08:09If Brooke Shields married the Groucho Marx, that child would have your eyebrows.
08:14All of the laughs lead up to a satisfying reveal.
08:17After eyebrow-tweezing and pedicures, Thermopolis looks ready for the royal ball.
08:21The Princess Diaries outdoes itself in one of its most re-watchable sections.
08:25The only Paolo can take this, and this, and give you a princess.
08:36Number 2. Walking in a Woman's Shoes
08:38Mrs. Doubtfire
08:39Taking an unorthodox approach, Daniel Hillard figures out a way to be with his kids.
08:44He then needs his brother's help to make a disguise.
08:47This leads to yet another great showcase for Robin Williams.
08:50The makeover lets the comedian do different voices, with makeup and outfits changing his personality.
08:56I don't know, this was scared the children do things, so I don't know, maybe this was too much for them.
09:00I think we have to go to the next level.
09:02Each passing character could power its own film.
09:05Williams lets his vocal talents run wild, with salutes to musicals like Fiddler on the Roof.
09:10There's even a funny tribute to the work of Barbara Streisand.
09:13Don't tell me not to live, just sit and potter
09:15Life's candy and the sun's a ball of butter
09:18Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade
09:21It's not working.
09:24This sequence from Mrs. Doubtfire reminds you of how hilarious a star can be,
09:28while also utilising some impressive prosthetics.
09:30Are we close?
09:32Any closer, and you'd be mum.

10:28Sandler and Aniston prove they've got screen chemistry during a shopping spree.
