Kaitlyn Leeb Causes Stir With 'Total Recall' Silicone Costume
During the recent Comic-Con convention one participant received a little more attention than she expected while starting an internet craze.
Kaitlyn Leeb appears in the upcoming reboot of "Total Recall" along with Colin Ferrell, Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel, but she was the center of attention after her costume caught the attention of most everyone at the event. Leeb plays a three-breasted prostitute that was first featured in the original movie.
Leeb showed up in full character, fitted in the prosthetics that she wore in the film, but her appearance drew the notice of some dull-witted fans.
"There were a bunch of people at Comic Con asking if I had surgery for the third one," Lee said to laughter. "Others thought that the two on the side were real. I guess that's the one thing that bothers me the most … they really are not mine … I'm more covered than I am on a day-to-day basis."
Even with all the added attention, Leeb explained that for the most part it has worked out for the better and she has seen her fan base increase.
"Every day is new. It's just really crazy and exciting at the same time. My Twitter following has gone up. It's crazy, but really cool," she explained to the Calgary Herald.
Leeb admits she has no idea how much screen time she actually has in the film as she was sworn to secrecy when she was offered the role. The prosthetic, which is made of silicone, was custom built for her last summer.
"They didn't want to release too early that there would be a three-breasted woman from the original," she said. "It was hush-hush. I had to fly to Los Angeles a couple of times last June and July to do the body cast to create the three breasts and my agent said 'Don't tell anyone!'"
