Brittany Snow’s Pfeiffer Role Model

It’s one of the most talked about films of the summer. “Hairspray” is being hailed for it’s positive spirit, and promotion of diversity. And 21-year-old Brittany Snow , one of the film’s stars, is talking about how much she loved being a part of the cast.

Snow had a proper role model in Michelle Pfieffer, who played her mom in the movie. And Brittany took her cues from the veteran actress, who she greatly looks up to.

“Every girl has that inner mean girl in them that comes out when someone takes their parking spot. I watched Michelle Pfeiffer on set and wanted Amber to be a very bratty, mini version of the evil Velma.”

And apparently Pfeiffer has had a serious impact on the young actress. “She told me one day that I should eat meat, and I hadn’t eaten meat since I was eight years old. I ordered a steak about an hour later,” Snow told press.

Rather than acting, Brittany was most impressed with Michelle’s personal nature. “It surprised me that she was so down-to-earth and willing to talk about her views, shopping and kids. She was so generous, loving and professional. Also, how insanely gorgeous she is without makeup, just hanging out.”

You can catch all the action this Friday (July 20) when Hairspray opens nationwide.
