" To make her remarkable transition from her down-to-earth real-life look to the ultra-glamorous bleach blond of Donatella Versace, actress Gina Gershon, who stars in the upcoming Lifetime biopic House of Versace, debuting this Saturday at 8 P.M. (7 P.M. CT), did some very important things. Can you guess what they are? In an interview with The Daily Beast, Gershon reveals she did three things to transform herself into a faux Donatella Versace for the Lifetime role: 1. She lost 10 pounds. &amp;quot;For me, I just view it as part of the role so I tend to take it for granted. Nobody&amp;amp;#8217;s sat there and said, &amp;#x27;Hey, you got really skinny for this part!&amp;#x27; I&amp;amp;#8217;m like, &amp;#x27;Hey, I lost 10 pounds! Did anyone notice?&amp;#x27; But it&amp;amp;#8217;s what I do.&amp;quot; 2. She got a spray tan. &amp;quot;I did a spray tan. Ugh. I&amp;amp;#8217;m not a big fan of the spray tan. The wig as already made in advance, so they&amp;amp;#8217;d just plop it on. For the makeup, you have to figure out which look you&amp;amp;#8217;re going for&amp;amp;#8212;is she happy? Sad? F---ed up? But it didn&amp;amp;#8217;t take that long. We got the whole thing down to probably an hour and a half.&amp;quot; Check out this trailer for House of Versace&amp;amp;#8212; No word on Donatella&amp;#x27;s reaction to the film yet, but a rep for Versace told WWD: &amp;amp;#8220;Since Versace did not authorize the book on which it is based, the movie should only be seen as a work of fiction.&amp;quot; Tell us, are you going to be tuning in tomorrow night to watch House of Versace on Lifetime?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
