**Mrs. bessie Busybody** is one of *LazyTown* characters. She was Mayor Meanswell's girlfriend and Sportacus' mother in both 1996 and 1999 plays and older sister in the cartoon.

## Personality

Bessie's name says it all. She needs to know everyone's business and will go to great lengths to get it. She's usually thwarted by rotten timing or bad luck, but it never discourages her. For instance, she might be eavesdropping on gossip and just as she's about to garner a critical piece of information a loud horn might blare, foiling her.

She is motivated by a desire to be respected. She would love to be the queen of LazyTown, if there were such a thing. She's a know-it-all and a wannabe, always on top of the latest fashion or trend to the point of pretension and superficiality. She tries to be a mother figure to the kids, but often it just comes off as patronizing and condescending. Her intentions are sound; she just doesn't possess the skills to be a good parent or role model. She is oblivious to the Mayor's longing for her, but always entertains his advances. After all, he is her Mayor.

## Physical Appearance

Bessie has fair skin, blue eyes, and bright blue hair. She normally wears red lipstick, a red business suit, a shirt with a floral design, a blue belt, blue high-heeled shoes, and a pearl necklace.

In the fanfics, she has pale skin tone. In Trapped & Disappearances, she wears deep cerise blazer, matching skirt, light turquoise shirt with a blue and lavender floral pattern, magenta belt, dark teal high heeled shoes and the same pearl necklace from the cartoon.
