The result of combining Grand Theft Me with sex appeal. Any villain who possesses the body of the heroine (or of any woman, really) is contractually required to spend time posing in front of mirrors, wearing scanty clothing, and sometimes even groping herself. This often occurs when the villain in question is herself female and has been without a normal body — or at least an attractive one — for an extended period of time. Naturally, this is an opportunity for rampant Fanservice. Compare Man, I Feel Like a Woman. This overlaps with Power Perversion Potential. Contrast Shapeshifting Seducer. Subtrope of Limb-Sensation Fascination and Reveling in the New Form. |

Claudine Renko AKA Ms. Sinister does this prematurely in the second arc of X-23's solo series. After capturing X-23, intending to steal her body in hopes that her Healing Factor will prevent Mr. Sinister (whose personality is dormant in her body though periodically surfaces to take control) from permanently asserting himself and taking control of her, Renko expresses satisfaction that she'll be receiving a very attractive new body in return. Fortunately for Laura, Mr. Sinister transfers his consciousness to her body first, but she kicks him out and Renko is badly wounded during the resulting fight. | |

Totally Spies!: In one episode, the Villain of the Week's contraption is something that allowed people to change their physical attributes by switching their own with someone else's. A really hideous older lady tries it out with Alex, and then walks away, checking out her new reflection in a mirror. In another, the Villain of the Week runs an agency that kidnaps supermodels and uses a contraption that switches her body parts with other women's. First we see Clover's long, slender legs replaced with stout, muscular legs complete with wide-childbearing hips; then the brace-faced owner of the large legs gets her freckled complexion and frizzy red hair switched with Alex's sleek, raven bob and Sam's peaches-and-cream complexion and smile. Guess who walks off with a smug smile? |

This tends to happen to Sam a lot in Supernatural. Meg's reaction to being in his body is to dramatically flex her muscles; she then spends the entire episode enjoying her handsome new body, "fine packaging" and all. It then happens to Sam two more times in season five, once with a teenager who wanted Sam's life, and once with Lucifer | |

Mettaton from Undertale (minus the Grand Theft Me part) when he turned into the flamboyant Mettaton EX after an upgrade, just in time for the premiere of his new TV show. During the fight against him, he constantly dances and poses Jojo-style, even when he loses his limbs. There's also an inversion from Alphys, the creator of his EX body, when she mentions in her diary that she kept "[getting] really sweaty" for some reason when she was building it. |

Quantum Leap has a few more male versions. The "Evil Leaper" does this at one point; also, Sam looks appreciatively in a mirror when he is handsome hitman Frankie. Parodied in the MAD satire "Quandary Heap," when "Dam" can't see who he has leaped into and he asks the Al parody, who asks him how he feels about a big muscular guy with a tattoo and rugged beard, "Dam" likes it... but that describes who the woman who's he's leaped into is going to marry. | |

Quite an entertaining scene in a Farscape episode "Out Of Their Minds", in which all the main characters switch bodies, and John in Aeryn's body starts examining it rather closely. Of course, Aeryn in someone else's body walks in. He tries to excuse himself by saying "I'm a guy!", and Aeryn threatens to break his legs (never mind that they're hers) if he checks out anything else. The really funny part comes at the end of the episode where, when John apologizes, Aeryn implies she, too, experimented. In a rather hands-on manner. | |

In one episode of Freddy's Nightmares, a con-artist medium gets trapped in a trance by Freddy during one of her schemes and he takes control of her body. He immediately strips her body down to her underwear, taunts her about it, and then spends the rest of the episode strutting around like that. He uses the partial nudity to distract a skeptic and a young model who came to speak to the con-artist and kills them both. | |

There's a G-rated version in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice when Tahrust Inmee is channeled by Maya; the bald Tahrust clearly enjoys playing with Maya's long hair. Since a spirit channeler's body temporarily changes to mostly match that of the deceased's and he's only been summoned to testify, nothing much else happens. | |

In Gargoyles, after being placed under a spell that causes her to turn human (rather than to stone) during the day, Demona takes a moment to preen outrageously when revealing this fact to Elisa. Considering how much Demona despises humans (and her reaction to having the spell placed on her in an earlier episode was initially one of rage and horror) this mostly seems to have been a way to mock Elisa rather than taking genuine pleasure in her new body, however attractive it may be. | |

Code Geass: Empress Marianne does this when she enters C's World, doing a little posing, spinning, and curtsying. Slightly different from the normal application of this trope, as she wasn't testing out a new body, but getting used to her old one, since she's been using a young girl as a Soul Jar for a long time, and only in C's World can her detached spirit manifest its true form. Did I mention she's very hot and... did this to her son, Lelouch? | |

There's a non-bodyswapping example in Stardust, where the witch Lamia is very happy with her youthified self, and strips off in front of a mirror to get a better look. Her sisters are there too, looking on in envious admiration. | |

Dio Brando from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure steals Jonathan Joestar's body in order to "live gorgeously forever". He then proceeds to spend a significant amount of time in said body wearing suggestive outfits (or just hanging around shirtless), feeling himself up, and having a crazy amount of sex. | |

In Les Légendaires, Anathos was planning to reincarnate in female, elven protagonist Shimy as a way to come back on Earth. After he fails to this and is forced to reincarnate in Danael instead, he makes a hint toward this trope when burning Shimy's eyes: | |

El Goonish Shive: A non-villainous example is discussed in this strip. Since Magic doesn't understand why Elliot hates his Sex Shifter spells, Grace suggests that he turn into a girl and pose in a mirror so he can move past that obstacle and start getting different types of spells again. When Elliot actually goes through with it however, he's too much of a goody-two-shoes to actually enjoy it and just ends up feeling guilty. A similar situation happens when he and his girlfriend Ashley switch bodies (kind of, it's a long story). Ashley starts freaking out and the only way she can calm down is by pretending she's in a hackneyed transformation story, so Elliot poses in the mirror for her. Like before though, his heart just isn't in it. |

Doctor Who: In "New Earth", Cassandra does it to both Rose, unbuttoning her top to show a little cleavage: ... and, in a rare example with a male body (but no unbuttoning of anything), the Doctor. Which leads to the following memorable line. "Let's Kill Hitler": After regenerating, River Song immediately rushes out of the room to find a mirror. On discovering that she's got a great ass, River is delighted, declaring that she's going to wear lots of jodhpurs from now on. |

In Get Out (2017), Chris meets Logan King, the black husband of a much older white woman, and the fact that Logan twirls around to show himself off to a group of friends at a party is taken as an indicator that something is very wrong. In fact, this is the central idea of The Conspiracy - a cult of well-off white people who “appreciate� blackness and want to claim it for themselves by hijacking black bodies and suppressing the true person’s consciousness. | |

In Fragments of Chaldea, Servants can absorb weapons and powers belonging to alternate selves by consuming their memory essences, the result of summoning the same Servant in different Classes or incarnations. Altria eventually gets the memory essence of the Lion King, her Lancer-class incarnation, and gains the ability to switch to her older, more developed body in the package. Altria Alter is furious when she sees this, blaming Merlin. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In "Who Are You?, after body-swapping with Buffy, one of the first things Faith does is take a long bath just to check out her "new home", including groping her leg. Later on, she also acts flirtatious toward any male in sight. (Not that she didn't do similar things in her old body.) In the original script, it's implied she's actually fondling herself underwater. | |

Charmed (1998): Occurred in "Coyote Piper", where Piper is possessed by an ancient evil spirit (one of several over the show's run). After modelling in front of the mirror in what's almost a dominatrix outfit, the spirit knocks Piper's husband Leo unconsciousness, then goes to Piper's High School Reunion she was holding at her club, and proceeds to do a sexy table-dance for the all men (and a few of the women) present on top of the bar. Barefoot. For about 5 minutes. In "A Paige from the Past", this happens when Phoebe is possessed by the spirit of a deceased convict named Lulu, who can't help admiring her new body's beauty and starts Shaking Her Hair Loose. And once again to Phoebe in "Freaky Phoebe", when a hideous demon cast a spell to switch bodies with her, who had always envied the attractiveness of others, and vanquish other demons who threaten her livelihood. Immediately after her soul replaces Phoebe's she makes out with her office's appointed shrink, is caught by Piper twirling in front of a mirror and switches into a more revealing and tighter outfit. |
