Today, I was cast as beast in my high school's production of Beauty and the Beast. My Grandma's input? "At least they won't need any makeup." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it was the first dress rehearsal at a community theater. I'm playing a grandma to a bunch of little kids, and the guy who is playing the grandpa wears a fat suit. I put on my costume and one of the kids comes up to me and says, "Are you wearing a fat suit too?" and pokes my stomach. FML
Today, my teacher told me I wasn't pretty enough to play the princess part in the play. FML
Today, it was good fun getting a nice vampire make-up at my drama lesson. It would've been better if I hadn't forgotten my Demak'up. Even better if I could've avoided the crazy glances in the bus home. FML
Today, I helped out with makeup at my daughter's high school play. As one girl walked past, I told her that she'd smudged pink lipstick all up the side of her face. Turns out it was a birthmark. She cried in the dressing room for half an hour. FML
Today, my six-year-old son told me my makeup looks like his grandmother's did in the casket. FML
Today, I went to school without any makeup on. The guys who usually compliment me for being pretty are now calling me "The Greatest Illusion Ever". FML
Today, my school's theatre decided to produce Les Misérables. I got the part of Éponine. My boyfriend, being a talented performer, could have gotten any part he wanted. However, he only wanted to play the soldier responsible for killing Éponine. FML
Today, I was trying out for a play I really wanted to be in. After my audition, I was feeling really good. She said she would post the cast list tomorrow. Not knowing where she would post it, I asked her. Her reply? "It doesn't matter. You won't be on it anyway." FML
Today, my school put on a musical. I was one of the leads, and in the middle of my solo, I got a huge nosebleed. A little girl in the front row screamed. FML
Today, I went to school without makeup. No one recognized me. FML

Maybe they cast you as the beast because at the end he turns into a super handsome human again :]

I wonder if grandma even thought that OP being ugly would be at least 1/4 her fault? unless he's adopted of course...

Maybe she meant because you'll have like a wig on you know big brown "fur" covering it up?

Well, the part of Beast is how Ron Perlman got a big break, so this could be the start of a great career.

But at the end, the beast is suppose to be a good lookin prince! Think of it that way!

That's because at the end of the movie he runs into the handsome prince. If that makes you feel better.

That's really mean. Sorry OP. My grandma was the same way; whenever I used to try to dress up or go out with friends my grandma would nitpick at every little thing wrong with my appearance. She's probably jealous that she's old and wrinkly and you look fantastic without even trying. Keep your head up OP! :)
