Sharknado 5: 19 WTF Moments

13. Tara Reid Gets A Makeover

Sharknado 5 Tara Reid
Syfy

After getting her machinery severely damaged by a shark, April desperately needs repairs, and so Nova and Fin bring her to Nova's Sharknado Sister pals.

There, Olivia Newton-John (!) and her real-life daughter Chloe Lattanzi perform emergency surgery on April, giving her a substantial cybernetic upgrade that effectively turns her into a solar battery...because reasons.

Even more baffling is the fact that the upgrade for some reason necessitated April getting a Barbie-style makeover, complete with pink streaks in her hair and an excess of "girly" clothing.

Oh, and she's handily informed that she can't fly anymore, presumably to place some sort of limitation on her abilities for the rest of the movie...because that's totally what a Sharknado movie needs.
