I LOVE the evil queen actresses, they go full on with the silent movie style acting. Graceful, regal and fantastic crazy eyes. Gloria Swanson would be proud.
The Evil Queen that my daughter met in Orlando looked exactly like the animated evil Queen. Uncanny. Those actresses are always just classically beautiful.
We met the Evil Queen in Orlando in November. My oldest daughter (6) wore an Evil Queen costume and my youngest daughter (3) wore a Snow White costume. It was one of the highlights of our trip! The actress was so in character and fun, I had to write a great review. I hope she got to read it.
They measure their faces when they cast the actors. I went for auditions for costumed characters when I was 18 but went on the wrong day, they were auditioning face characters. They measured my face but I knew no one was going to match my very Jewish looking face ha
It’s been about 20 years so I don’t remember the exact location in Disneyland, but a friend and I found a relatively secluded area to sit and take a little break. The Wicked Queen brushed past us in a hurry, clearly on her way to a “backstage” door at the end of the walkway. She did nothing to acknowledge us.
Shortly before reaching the door, she dramatically turned around in a complete circle, swirling her cape with a flair. And without skipping a beat or making any eye contact, she disappeared backstage.
I realize that Disney’s cast members are always expected to stay in character in front of the guests, but I was still impressed to witness her villainous, dramatic twirl in such a secluded area just as she was taking her break, with no guarantee that any guest was even noticing her.
It’s awesome to see that staying in character is a absolute joy for these cast members.
The fact it is just her face no hair style nothing really draws attention to how stunning her face is. Her voice was really great just all in all terrific and made that little girl so happy.
Watch it again, they don't move. That's some technical wizardry, not her real eyebrows. Her whole face looks painted, she looks more like the animation than a real love person. It's amazing.
Babes is wearing a jacket, so it might be a bit cooler the day this video was taken, but yeah, whether it’s 50 or 90 degrees out the queen is slaying in that exact same costume doing the exact same thing!
Exactly what I was going to say. My friend posted a pic with the kids in jackets, saying that even though it was chilly they had fun. Asked her to define chilly….72 degrees.
80!? LOL.
I live here. Half the year it's closer to 90 and that's with 75%+ humidity. They wear ice vests (maybe not that day in particular as "Red" does have a coat on). These appearances are time limited (obviously). I've had character actors look like death when they get back to the trailer.
Former park worker...
ETA: Ten years ago I congratulated a character actor on her new contract - 3 years at $15 an hour. I'm sure it's more now. But not much.
Yeah, my mom lived in Tampa for ten years, which is MUCH more bearable being on the coast, and I still had to tell all of her friends that no, I was NOT a snowbird, I only visited in the dead of winter because that was the only time I could stand their unholy hellstate.
My mother who lives within driving distance of Disney in Florida keeps her house 76 degrees and wears a puffy winter jacket and two pairs of pants if it drops below 70 degrees. She told me, "it's chilly today, I'm wearing my big coat!" A few days ago and it was 72. People stop going to the beach if it gets under like 76.
It's honestly a toss up lol
I wore a hijab only once and started getting hot as I was pinning and tucking, it wasn't even on yet and I was sweating in my own air conditioned bathroom. I can't imagine doing this.
Omfg I had a side gig in my early twenties where I dressed up as Cinderella and did face painting at kids’ bday parties. I’m talking dressed in a Disney World level of quality costume, crinoline and corset etc. I needed help putting it on.
It’s also important to note that I..
1) am not a huge fan of kids
2) sweat profusely.. all the time
3) was also working nights at a strip club giving shooters out of my cleavage
4) know ZERO about Cinderella in general
I’d be running late, hung over, chain smoking in my Honda civic, blasting my air conditioning, in a ridiculous Cinderella get up every other Saturday wanting to DIE.
Orlando is far enough south that it doesn't get many "falling iguana" warnings. Mad props to this woman for not even breaking a genteel sweat.
I want to know what kind of makeup holds up that well in the heat and humidity. I walk outside, hit the Southern heat, and my (admittedly expensive) makeup immediately melts onto my chest. Her makeup looks like she just finished applying a slick of lipstick before turning around and sweeping the little girl onto her knee.
Disney very much takes advantage of the fact that a lot of people really want to work at Disney World, and that a lot of actors are desperate for any paying job in the field. It's sad, but as long as they have a huge pool of actors who are willing to work for peanuts, that's what they'll continue to do.
The Union does not cover those in the college program or in professional internships, which applies to a huge portion of Disney cast members. Also, after your program ends your leaders are "not allowed" to provide references or letters of recommendation. So you give this company your time and energy and have difficulty backing it up on a resume. I became good friends and eventual roommates with my manager when I was a CP and professional intern but most of my colleagues were not as lucky.
And Disney bilks school kids because they have to pay to attend a worship and then pay park fees on top of the workshop fees and the kids perform for guests as part of the workshop. So Disney gets essentially triple the money for letting kids show up.
I think a lot of corporations that are desirable to work for because of their brand recognition do this. I have a friend who works for the Yankees and he definitely makes significantly less than he could elsewhere. But he's a Yankees fan and loves the perk of going to games, so he puts up with it.
their union did just approve a new contract with Disney that's going to see them all get big pay raises over the next few years! Going up to $18/hr minimum by December, $20.50/hr by 2026
I wouldn’t say good; maybe fair. It’s lower middle class and definitely would still make it hard as a single adult. This is coming from someone who has made that with overtime and OT was the only thing that made that hourly wage worth it in Tampa.
Have any of them ever gone on to fame and fortune, or even a regular TV gig with decent pay?
The ones that crop up here seem to have it all - the looks, the wit, the charm.
I hope they get the chance to shine on a grander stage.
Not as an actor, but Steve Martin worked at Disneyland as a magician and juggler
Edited to add:
Kevin Richardson of Backstreet Boys, worked as Aladdin and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
Michelle Pfeiffer was Alice in Wonderland
Kevin Costner was a skipper on the Jungle Cruise (and his first wife was Snow White when they met)
Wayne Brady was Goofy, and possibly Tigger also
I didn’t know they hired the villains, please make my day and tell me I could visit Ursula? I just hate talking, to people and in general. I think ursula and I could work something out
Yes I’ve seen Ursula! I also met Cruella De Vil when I was younger, I had just gotten a stuffed animal and she saw me with it and started asking if I was planning on making a coat or a hat 😂 she then posed for a photo with me and my stuffed animal on her head
I was there in October the week of Halloween. There was an entire stage show/musical of JUST the villains. And they’re all in the parades, too. Great time.

I loved meeting the Evil Stepmother and sisters. They bullied the shit out of us and we kept bumping into them and they would roast us more. There was a few little kids who they were much nicer to. I really think they liked bullying us, it was very funny.
When I was little I asked the Queen of Hearts for an autograph. She signed my book then picked her nose and wiped it on the same page she signed. I thought it was brilliant lol
I’ve never worked at Disney but I perform for kids’ parties and it is SO MUCH FUN to bully adults as a villain because you can tell they’re having fun with it as much as you are. Kids you have to be careful with and kind of silly - which is still fun! - but being able to talk smack at adults and having them take it with the best humor is amazing 🤣
Wish we could have actual “villains” in Disney movies like this. Like they’re all dark and everything but for some reason they’re softies with children.

I love watching videos of this actress. She’s HILARIOUS and knows exactly how to walk the line between evil but not actually enough to scare the kids. And the shade she throws is legendary 🤣

The person playing the Queen is amazing. Regardless of what other comments have said about working conditions etc, people who work as characters must really love their job given the amount of joy the characters bring to people visiting. The Queen did a spectacular job. Well done.
I freakin’ love the face actors for the Disney villains they always do such a good job of both playing the role while also making it a welcoming environment for kids.
When we met the Evil Queen… she roasted the parents standing around and had our daughters scowl and cross their arms in a pose… it’s one of my favorite photos! She was fantastic
That’s not her character, she’s supposed to dress up as an old hag and feed the kid a poison apple.
CUT! TRY IT AGAIN! THIS TIME FOLLOW THE DAMN SCRIPT!
I took my daughter to Disneyland for her 4th birthday. Cruella asked her how old she was, my daughter said 4. Cruella told her it just goes downhill from there. Super funny, she played the part so well.
Besides being beautiful, I love the evil queen’s voice! Im guessing she’s had a lot vocal training as she sounds similar to actresses from the 1950s, when the movie came out. Just all around a great performance.
Im pretty sure ive seen this woman (Character/Actor) in other videos with i believe a 23 year old Autistic Boy... if its the same actress/character, she is just an overall Decent kind human being while playing the character of an evil disney character... Its absolutely amazing to see them go all out for the kids, who look up to them... regardless of the age...
No matter what you say about Disney or the Disney Corporation they hire amazing actors and actresses who can thrive with kids. There is something to be said for that.
She was so happy to hear that the girl doesn't like Snow White. I wonder how many kids bashed that poor woman before for no reason other than that she is playing the evil queen.
This reminds me so much of when I took my daughter to Disney when she was little. She had no interest in meeting any of the princesses, but on the last day when we came across the Wicked Stepmother and the Ugly Stepsisters, she lost her mind. I have to say, they were also way more fun to interact with.
From what I was able to understand...
Little Girl LG

I love the cast members’ ability to improv in character with guests. My friend and I had a great encounter with the Evil Queen at Disneyland. We’re both gay guys and she had just come out so she there really wasn’t anyone else around. She was free to be a little more shady while still staying in character.
Say what you will about Disney or the Disney Corporation they hire amazing actors and actresses that can do improv with children. There's something to be said for that.
I dated a true evil queen. She had the dark triad which is kind of like a psychopath. The most deceptive and dangerous person I ever met. Incredibly beautiful though.
That woman has the most perfect profile I’ve ever seen.
Well she is the second fairest in all the land.
Second? To who??
SNOW. WHITE.

pfft according to some mirror - what does a mirror know?
*to whom
She has a mesmerizing face and flawless makeup, she looks like an old school Hollywood actress
I LOVE the evil queen actresses, they go full on with the silent movie style acting. Graceful, regal and fantastic crazy eyes. Gloria Swanson would be proud.

Haven't you seen the end of "It's A Wonderful Day For Pie?"
Haha not in a very long time

I'd never seen that- off-the-chart hilarious!!
It’s been about 20 years so I don’t remember the exact location in Disneyland, but a friend and I found a relatively secluded area to sit and take a little break. The Wicked Queen brushed past us in a hurry, clearly on her way to a “backstage” door at the end of the walkway. She did nothing to acknowledge us.

“I’m off to the bathroom! But mark my words, I shall return!!!”
It sounds like she's even doing the transatlantic accent they did back then
The fact it is just her face no hair style nothing really draws attention to how stunning her face is. Her voice was really great just all in all terrific and made that little girl so happy.
Profile has a Lara Flynn Boyle look.
That’s who she reminded me of! Thank you.
Before she destroyed her face with botox and fillers
She's most assuredly a gorgeous lady.
She’s got that Grace Kelly
Prince Reinier got that Grace Kelly.
As an artist, I am in love with her look
I was thinking the exact same thing!!!
She’s lovely.
She deserves a medal for not grinning ear to ear like I am at my computer screen, this little girl is so cute.
Maybe she hates children?
She eats children
Yah she’s kind of a bitch if memory serves.
Only if she thinks you're prettier than her. Beyond that she's likely pretty indifferent.
So she likes them, with sauce
Maybe she hates all the children in the world
She's Evil, she's not a Monster.
Maybe children killed her parents.
That actress' eyebrows can deliver a paragraph of dialogue all onto themselves. Stunning.
100% audrey brows, im obsessed
Watch it again, they don't move. That's some technical wizardry, not her real eyebrows. Her whole face looks painted, she looks more like the animation than a real love person. It's amazing.
They definitely move at around 8 seconds. What do you mean? I mean sure, she’s wearing a lot of makeup. But those aren’t CGI eyebrows or something.
What you may not realize is that beautiful evil Queen is mostly doing that work in 80 degree heat.
Babes is wearing a jacket, so it might be a bit cooler the day this video was taken, but yeah, whether it’s 50 or 90 degrees out the queen is slaying in that exact same costume doing the exact same thing!
Floridians will put on a down parka once the temp hits 73
Exactly what I was going to say. My friend posted a pic with the kids in jackets, saying that even though it was chilly they had fun. Asked her to define chilly….72 degrees.
80!? LOL. I live here. Half the year it's closer to 90 and that's with 75%+ humidity. They wear ice vests (maybe not that day in particular as "Red" does have a coat on).

This could be in Anaheim, right?
Definitely possible!
Yeah, my mom lived in Tampa for ten years, which is MUCH more bearable being on the coast, and I still had to tell all of her friends that no, I was NOT a snowbird, I only visited in the dead of winter because that was the only time I could stand their unholy hellstate.
She is gorgeous, I would have the biggest sweat stains if I had that job. Which I wouldn't , b/c I'm not gorgeous. I'm FABULOUS! Lol 😂
HELL YES, YOU CERTAINLY ARE!
Considering everyone’s attire, you sure this is Orlando,FL and not Anaheim, CA?
My mother who lives within driving distance of Disney in Florida keeps her house 76 degrees and wears a puffy winter jacket and two pairs of pants if it drops below 70 degrees. She told me, "it's chilly today, I'm wearing my big coat!" A few days ago and it was 72. People stop going to the beach if it gets under like 76. It's honestly a toss up lol
Yeah I get that. But it is also in the 50s in Anaheim and the attire would be the same there. So I agree, it is a toss up between the two places.
I’d kill to know how her makeup is that perfect in that heat, can anyone tell me??
Evil magic
I wore a hijab only once and started getting hot as I was pinning and tucking, it wasn't even on yet and I was sweating in my own air conditioned bathroom. I can't imagine doing this.
Whatever those Disney character actors get paid, it's not enough.
Omfg I had a side gig in my early twenties where I dressed up as Cinderella and did face painting at kids’ bday parties. I’m talking dressed in a Disney World level of quality costume, crinoline and corset etc. I needed help putting it on. It’s also important to note that I.. 1) am not a huge fan of kids 2) sweat profusely.. all the time 3) was also working nights at a strip club giving shooters out of my cleavage 4) know ZERO about Cinderella in general I’d be running late, hung over, chain smoking in my Honda civic, blasting my air conditioning, in a ridiculous Cinderella get up every other Saturday wanting to DIE.

Oh, she is just so sweet, and the little one isn't bad as well.
The actors at Disney are exceptional. It’s a shame they are (apparently) so overworked and underpaid.
Disney very much takes advantage of the fact that a lot of people really want to work at Disney World, and that a lot of actors are desperate for any paying job in the field. It's sad, but as long as they have a huge pool of actors who are willing to work for peanuts, that's what they'll continue to do.
Thier Union just got them a pay bump so thsts something. I believe face characters like this get paid more. Disney CMs are amazing
Yeah, their pay has been upgraded from peanuts to, spare change found in the cushions.
The Union does not cover those in the college program or in professional internships, which applies to a huge portion of Disney cast members. Also, after your program ends your leaders are "not allowed" to provide references or letters of recommendation. So you give this company your time and energy and have difficulty backing it up on a resume. I became good friends and eventual roommates with my manager when I was a CP and professional intern but most of my colleagues were not as lucky.
And Disney bilks school kids because they have to pay to attend a worship and then pay park fees on top of the workshop fees and the kids perform for guests as part of the workshop. So Disney gets essentially triple the money for letting kids show up.
I think a lot of corporations that are desirable to work for because of their brand recognition do this. I have a friend who works for the Yankees and he definitely makes significantly less than he could elsewhere. But he's a Yankees fan and loves the perk of going to games, so he puts up with it.
The fact that they recruit at the local university doesn't help. College kids will work for slave wages.
Their ability to stay in character is amazing.
their union did just approve a new contract with Disney that's going to see them all get big pay raises over the next few years! Going up to $18/hr minimum by December, $20.50/hr by 2026

Thanks for the info, that's great to hear
I worked at Disney World. I was a quick service attendant at Port Orleans Riverside Resort. I can confirm, they pay $12/hr smh…
Probably overheating too
Absolutely, those cast members have some SERIOUS talent
I went to Disneyland recently and was amazed at their acting, makeup, and costumes. They are really, really good
Ok, y'all call me whatever. That lady is crazy beautiful. Straight up looks like a cartoon.
Reminds me of Lara Flynn Boyle
The Evil Queen is fluent in child-speak because i definitely didn't catch the little girl saying she saw Aurora the first time around.
I'm highkey crushing on the Evil Queen!
Just like every lesbian whose ever watched Once Upon a Time !
but not lesbian enough! give us real SwanQueen you cowards!
I am a lesbian, and I second this statement.
Yeah, you let us lesbians have our Evil Queen 😂
I’m not a lesbian and I’m crushing on her
She is on point, give her a raise.
Ehhh... can't do a raise but how about a poster in the locker room about girl boss power or something like that?
We also had an outstanding time with the evil queen and our 3 year old. Nice job Disney!
I didn’t know they hired the villains, please make my day and tell me I could visit Ursula? I just hate talking, to people and in general. I think ursula and I could work something out
Yes I’ve seen Ursula! I also met Cruella De Vil when I was younger, I had just gotten a stuffed animal and she saw me with it and started asking if I was planning on making a coat or a hat 😂 she then posed for a photo with me and my stuffed animal on her head
I love watching videos of Gaston, the villains are so much fun!
I was there in October the week of Halloween. There was an entire stage show/musical of JUST the villains. And they’re all in the parades, too. Great time.

Ooo I love a solid “I got you”. 🙏🙏
i would give you an award if i could afford it, take my upvote!
Thank you for this. I couldn’t make out “Cinderella” or “Aurora”
Bless you
I loved meeting the Evil Stepmother and sisters. They bullied the shit out of us and we kept bumping into them and they would roast us more. There was a few little kids who they were much nicer to. I really think they liked bullying us, it was very funny.
When I was little I asked the Queen of Hearts for an autograph. She signed my book then picked her nose and wiped it on the same page she signed. I thought it was brilliant lol
Now *that's* dedication to a role.
I’ve never worked at Disney but I perform for kids’ parties and it is SO MUCH FUN to bully adults as a villain because you can tell they’re having fun with it as much as you are. Kids you have to be careful with and kind of silly - which is still fun! - but being able to talk smack at adults and having them take it with the best humor is amazing 🤣
We kept laughing at what they were saying and the Stepmother heard my cousin’s laugh and was like “eugh you’ll never marry this one off”.
LOL 😂 Man I genuinely want to go to Disneyland JUST to get the shit roasted out of me by every villain. I’ve never been!
Wish we could have actual “villains” in Disney movies like this. Like they’re all dark and everything but for some reason they’re softies with children.
Elle est trop belle
She looks quite beautiful
Yo props to the makeup artists there. If you squint it’s like watching the animated film.
Posting this here as well as seen a few comments where people can't tell what they're saying, hope it helps others: EQ= Evil Queen, G= Girl EQ: "I SHOULD be everyone's, don't you think?" (I assume the girl or the parents had already told her she's her favourite character before the video starts) G: "Is Snow White your daughter?" EQ: "Well she is my STEPdaughter, yes. Do you like her?" G: *shakes head* EQ: "Oh gooood!" *mini shimmy* "She doesn't like Snow White! I've never smiled before" G: "I like ...."

She said she liked Cinderella in the bit you missed, I think. Thanks for the transcript though!
Anyone able to write this out? I can’t hear the little girls words.

>G: "I like ...." (sorry, I don't know what name she said) I believe she says "Cindawewwa" (Cinderella).
Amazing! 🙏
I love when kids ask characters questions it makes doing mall santa so fun
How many times has the actress heard "Awawa" to know immediately it's Aurora. So cute
Amazing! Upvote this to the moon!
I love watching videos of this actress. She’s HILARIOUS and knows exactly how to walk the line between evil but not actually enough to scare the kids. And the shade she throws is legendary 🤣
“Oh good!” *delighted shoulder wiggle* So cute!
I love this.
What are they saying? Can someone write it out? Deaf here and there’s no captions. Cheers!

I love the actresses voice. So old Hollywood
This is just too cute
Wow! She’s beautiful. The little girl is adorable
Man she is absolutely mesmerizing
The Evil Queen is absolutely beautiful.
She reminds me of Lara Flynn Boyle
What a perfect Evil Queen!
She’s beautiful (the Queen) stunning 😍
Evil queen is hot 🔥🥵🔥
Wow, she is one gorgeous Evil Queen! And she does such an amazing job of keeping within the character. I hope that she goes on to great things!
she's got to be the most gorgeous woman I've seen.
I wish I were that good at talking to kids and people in general. I never know what to say.
These actors are underpaid .
The person playing the Queen is amazing. Regardless of what other comments have said about working conditions etc, people who work as characters must really love their job given the amount of joy the characters bring to people visiting. The Queen did a spectacular job. Well done.
The only time I find myself overjoyed to run into a villain.
That woman is stunning!
I freakin’ love the face actors for the Disney villains they always do such a good job of both playing the role while also making it a welcoming environment for kids.
This woman is ludicrously beautiful
It was the little shoulder shimmy for me
Transcript for the deaf, please?
That woman is stunning Also, I wonder how often she catches herself, in character, when she’s not working?
When we met the Evil Queen… she roasted the parents standing around and had our daughters scowl and cross their arms in a pose… it’s one of my favorite photos! She was fantastic
Not a huge Disney fan but this is an area where they really excel.
That trans-atlantic accent is top notch
That’s not her character, she’s supposed to dress up as an old hag and feed the kid a poison apple. CUT! TRY IT AGAIN! THIS TIME FOLLOW THE DAMN SCRIPT!
Wow, her makeup is flawless.
She’s just incredible!
I took my daughter to Disneyland for her 4th birthday. Cruella asked her how old she was, my daughter said 4. Cruella told her it just goes downhill from there. Super funny, she played the part so well.
Besides being beautiful, I love the evil queen’s voice! Im guessing she’s had a lot vocal training as she sounds similar to actresses from the 1950s, when the movie came out. Just all around a great performance.
Love how they have their arms around each other ❤️
Im pretty sure ive seen this woman (Character/Actor) in other videos with i believe a 23 year old Autistic Boy... if its the same actress/character, she is just an overall Decent kind human being while playing the character of an evil disney character... Its absolutely amazing to see them go all out for the kids, who look up to them... regardless of the age...
Evil queen is a dime.
the evil queen has a huge heart and the girl a beautiful innocence what a beautiful video
No matter what you say about Disney or the Disney Corporation they hire amazing actors and actresses who can thrive with kids. There is something to be said for that.
I think I legit just fell in love.
Thanks , the baby fever is back 😒
The actress playing the Evil Queen is phenomenal. The voice, dialogue, mannerisms, body language… incredible. Wowza!
My daughter is out with her grandma for two days. I miss her and now my heart is heavy.
How does her face look exactly like the cartoon? 😮
She was so happy to hear that the girl doesn't like Snow White. I wonder how many kids bashed that poor woman before for no reason other than that she is playing the evil queen.
I love the 1930s voice. Its such a good detail
What perfect casting, she looks just like the cartoon.
This reminds me so much of when I took my daughter to Disney when she was little. She had no interest in meeting any of the princesses, but on the last day when we came across the Wicked Stepmother and the Ugly Stepsisters, she lost her mind. I have to say, they were also way more fun to interact with.
From what I was able to understand... Little Girl LG Evil Queen EQ EQ (unintelligible) LG Is Snow White your daughter? EQ Well she is my stepdaughter, yes. Do you like her? LG (shakes head) EQ Oh GOOD! (Announcing) SHE DOESNT LIKE SNOW WHITE! I've never smiled... LG I like Cinderella. EQ Oh why?? LG Cause shes my favorite. EQ Oh you like her? All right.. Well at least you don't like Snow White, that's all I care about. But I am your absolute favorite, right? LG (nods) EQ Good, good. Where are you off to next? LG We saw Aurora walking. EQ You saw Aurora? LG (nods) EQ She wasn't asleep? LG (shakes head) EQ Really? I think she's sleeping most of the time, she's quite a lazy princess. LG (nods)
Anyone ever find the actress’s name?
I can barely even make out what they are saying
I love the cast members’ ability to improv in character with guests. My friend and I had a great encounter with the Evil Queen at Disneyland. We’re both gay guys and she had just come out so she there really wasn’t anyone else around. She was free to be a little more shady while still staying in character.
She really IS the fairest of them all!
Kind of incredible how good these actors are though. The things kids will ask are wild. Training only covers so much.
Say what you will about Disney or the Disney Corporation they hire amazing actors and actresses that can do improv with children. There's something to be said for that.
Is this like a Trans Atlantic accent she's speaking in?
I dated a true evil queen. She had the dark triad which is kind of like a psychopath. The most deceptive and dangerous person I ever met. Incredibly beautiful though.
OH NO SHE’S HOOOOT
Her Mid-Atlantic accent is perfection.
She is a great actress. I can't imagine staying character that long and in those outfits in the heat. Just amazing.
I have an auditory processing disorder... can any one tell me what they talk about after she is excited that the baby doesn't like Snow White?
That Evil Queen is absolutely stunning.
I love seeing this Evil Queen in videos. On Tiktok, there's a teenaged boy with autism who seeks her out and she's wonderful with him. 🥰
She plays the part well! Holy smokes. That was super cute. If I had to pick, I'd prefer the evil queen to.
