<Tr> <Th> Nationality </Th> <Td> American </Td> </Tr> <P> Violet Beauregarde is the third person to find a Golden Ticket, and one of the four main antagonists of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory . She is the vain, self - centered, snobby, and gum - obsessed child . Violet chews gum obsessively and boasts that she has been chewing the same piece "for three months solid", a world record which Violet proclaims was previously held by her best friend Cornelia Prinzmetel . She is also aggressively competitive, prideful and has won trophies for gum chewing . In the 1971 film, she is shown to be from Miles City, Montana, while in the 2005 film, she is from Atlanta, Georgia . </P> <P> When Wonka shows the group around the Inventing Room, he stops to display a new type of gum he is working on . The gum doubles as a three - course meal which is composed of tomato soup, roast beef and baked potato, and blueberry pie and ice cream . Violet is intrigued and, despite Wonka's protests, snatches and chews the gum . She is delighted by its effects but, when she reaches the dessert, blueberry pie, her skin starts turning a somewhat blue color and her body begins to swell up, filling with juice . Eventually, Violet's head, legs, and arms get sucked into her gigantic body, but she is still mobile and is able to waddle . When her swelling stops, she resembles a round blueberry, causing Wonka to have the Oompa - Loompas roll her to the Juicing Room to have the juice squeezed out of her in fear she may explode . She is last seen leaving the factory with the other children, restored to her normal size but with indigo skin like of a blueberry . Wonka says there is nothing that can be done to change Violet's skin back to its original pigment . </P> <P> In the 1971 film, Violet is impatient, arrogant, self - centered, vain, and impulsive . She is accompanied by her father, Sam Beauregarde, a fast - talking car salesman who tries to advertise his business during Violet's television interview . She demeans Cornelia Prinzmetel more than she did in the book . She was polite to everyone, except for Veruca . She has a notable rivalry with Veruca Salt, with whom she persistently argues . Her blueberry form is relatively small, and her hair color remains unchanged . Violet is informed that she must be juiced immediately before she explodes and is last seen en route to the Juicing Room, with her father following her . </P>
