<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> <P> In the 2005 film, Violet has a rude, impatient and competitive personality . Aside from gum - chewing, she also has many other interests that reflect her obsession with always winning, such as karate . She is accompanied by her single mother, Scarlett Beauregarde (a former baton champion herself) whose own competitive personality appears to have had an influence on her daughter, as Scarlett expresses pride over Violet's 263 trophies and medals . Cornelia Prinzmetel was not mentioned in this film . Violet is also shown to be anti-social and bullying when she briefly insults Charlie, snatching a piece of confectionery from his hand and calling him a loser when he tries to interact with her . She turns blue, although her lips remain red, and swells up into a 10 - foot blueberry before being rolled off to the Juicing Room by the Oompa Loompas to prevent her from bursting . Violet is shown leaving the factory gymnastically cartwheeling as a consequence of her increased flexibility, which she is actually happy about, although her mother is less than pleased with her daughter's permanently indigo color . </P>
