After all, being named “World’s Ugliest” anything isn’t exactly the highest praise. So Kimmel, with the help of celebrity stylist Carson Kressley, gave Quasi a full makeover, complete with a new hairdo and outfit to create a look that Kimmel describes as “a cross between Honey Boo Boo and a hooker.” And even if the look may be a little too high-maintenance for Quasi Modo’s owners to keep up, at least the dog got to feel like a “regular Elle Macpherson” for a day. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/07/02/jimmy-kimmel-worlds-ugliest-dog-makeover "undefined") _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com "undefined") ### See the Contestants for the Ugliest Dog Competition Over the Years  In this June 20, 2014 file photo, Peanut, a two-year-old mutt is held by owner, Holly Chandler, after winning the World's Ugliest Dog Contest, at the Sonoma-Marin Fair in Petaluma, Calif.
