Fun fact! In the original Disney film she never says 'mirror mirror...', she says 'magic mirror...'

And she says"who's the fairest of them all" not the hottest.

The original German wording is "Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand: wer ist die schönste Frau in dem ganzen Land?". Literally translated that would be "Mirror, mirror on the wall: who is the most beautiful woman in all the land." I would let "hottest" slide as a more contemporary translation.

Being able to rhyme wall(wand) with land sounds nice. "Beautifulist of them all" to perseve the rhyme doesn't sound right so hottest is about the closest you're gonna get. That or prettiest, but I prefer hottest.

"yo shiny shit, who's the baddest hoe around? aw yeah"
