Andrew Cunanan Makeovers
"All men should dress in drag and free themselves"

He's was called a chameleon. The first time I saw him was on television. The second time was in print. The two guys looked nothing alike. I asked the paper if they had printed the right picture. They referred me to the FBI website where I saw that he really does look different in every photo he takes.

The FBI said he was a drag queen. Or at least he may have be wearing women's clothes. Their reasoning seems to be that he had hair clippers in his hotel room. Therefore, they believed he may have shaved off all his body hair, which would mean he was posing as a woman, right? I mean, why else would a man shave off all his body hair? Men don't do that! (Someone give these FBI guys a clue about fags at the beach, please.)

Here's what I came up with.

Here's what someone actually got paid to do.

"JuriLink pulled together an interdisciplinary team to show how Cunanan might look as a woman," said Bryan Harston, president and CEO of JuriLink. "Our in-house team included a computer graphics specialist, a forensic scientist and a consultant on physical appearance." "The team studied photos of Cunanan and scanned them into the computer," Harston said. "Next, they selected popular hair and make-up styles that Cunanan may be using if he is hiding in drag. They used computer graphics to match these styles with Cunananís photo image. Harston explained that this project is all in a dayís work for JuriLink International Corporation. "JuriLink is used to operating under tight deadlines," Harston said. "We have produced computer animation and video for hundreds of court cases. These graphics must be highly accurate to be admitted as evidence."

Liquid Image, a store on Santa Monica's Third Street Promenade, specializes in manipulating photographs digitally to create new looks. For this report, they agreed to alter an image of Cunanan supplied by Channel 2000 (pictured, above). "This would be a perfect way of seeing what makeup is possible, hair color styles, with different hair colors, with different makeup, et cetera," Bob Malkin of Liquid Image told Yarbough. Here's a look at some of the many possible faces of Cunanan as a woman. Makeup and women's hair - and hair color - has been digitally added to the original photo.

Staff writers at The Miami Herald reported on December 31, 1997:

"That public warning that the fugitive could be dressed as a woman seems, in retrospect, based on something other than firm information. It originated from a call to Gov. Lawton Chiles' Hot Line one day after Versace was gunned down. An anonymous man, calling from Puerto Rico, told an administrative assistant: ''You should be looking for a woman and not a man. . . . He's got to go out and eat sometime, and he's dressing like a woman."
