Cressida is described in the book as a young woman whose head is shaved bald and tattooed with vivid green vines. In the film, only the left half of her head is shaved and tattooed, and the vine tattoos extend down her neck and along her arm as well.
She is only told that Tigris used to be a stylist for the Hunger Games, like Cinna, and that Snow fired her himself. Over the years, possibly to deal with the pain caused by her cousin's sadistic rise to power, Tigris tattooed and surgically altered her appearance so much that she looked more feline than human.
The young woman helped to raise the future President Snow and even worked with him initially, but Tigris didn't approve of the Hunger Games, and their relationship changed drastically after Snow was assigned to mentor a District 12 tribute in the 10th annual Hunger Games.
Elizabeth Banks (born Elizabeth Irene Mitchell; February 10, 1974) is an American actress and filmmaker. She is known for playing chaperone Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games film series (2012–2015) and an ICCA commentator in the Pitch Perfect film series (2012–2017).
No, Lucy Gray has no relation to Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games. When the original novel for The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes first came out, some fans suspected that Lucy might actually be Katniss' grandmother.

Why did Snow shoot Lucy Gray?
Believing Lucy Gray planted the snake to harm him, Snow goes on a rampage, shooting his gun into the woods. For a moment, it seems like he has hit Lucy Gray but then she starts singing “The Hanging Tree,” causing countless Mockingjays to join in chorus.
Lucy Gray escaped 12 and went up North. She met a man and had a child with him. That child was a daughter, who grew up to be President Alma Coin. Lucy Gray told her daughter about her experiences with Snow, which is one of the reasons (aside from the dictatorship) Coin hated Snow so much.
The Hunger Games franchise generally stayed true to its source novels in terms of the plot. But there are some notable differences between The Hunger Games books and movies. One of these is, of course, the Haymitch and Effie kiss. This interaction was so surprising to fans because it's not in the books at all.
In The Hunger Games, Effie Trinket has pink hair, speculated to be a wig, and during the reaping wears a spring-green suit. As she gives speeches, she constantly adjusts her attire. In Catching Fire, Effie is adorned with brilliant pumpkin colored locks, just as stunningly vibrant as the beautiful pink.
Her breakthrough came at the age of 14, when she was cast as Rue in the 2012 film The Hunger Games. The film was a critical and financial success, and Stenberg's performance was praised. She received a number of awards and nominations, including a Black Reel Award nomination.
Described as sweet and vulnerable, in the book, it's suggested she sells her body to ensure the family keeps up appearances and stays fed. Tigris is seen again in "The Hunger Games" franchise as an ally to Katniss Everdeen, but much differently. After heavy modifications to her body over time, she resembles a tiger.
Snow can't stand to see a young woman betray a young man's affection—his view of what happened 65 years ago. And so he takes out his old, festering wound on Katniss.
Essentially, Katniss was afraid that if she was to kill President Snow, then the whole revolution fails, and the rivalry would still continue. Therefore, Katniss had to sacrifice by killing Coin in order to end war, and knew that Coin couldn't do anything better than Snow to save the Panem.
A resident of the Capitol who is sympathetic to the rebel cause, Tigris used to be a designer for the Hunger Games. However, she was banned from the profession because she received too many surgeries—now, her face looks like a tiger's.
At an unknown point in time years before the 74th Hunger Games, she was personally fired by Snow, the stated reason being due to her being too surgically enhanced.
At one point, as the Games started to develop, Tigris became one of the stylists for the tributes of an unknown district. Over the years, Tigris began undergoing surgical enhancements that made her look more tiger-like.
I believe Tigris purposely had these surgeries so that she would no longer be considered attractive enough to be used as a prize or sold to others by Snow. If no one wanted to buy her then she would be free of this abuse.
Throughout the years, Tigris started to get surgical enhancements, specifically to alter her looks to look somewhat like a tiger getting face and arm tattoos, flattening her nose and getting some of the largest whiskers Katniss had ever seen from a Capitol citizen.
For one thing, Songbirds & Snakes is set 64 years before Katniss volunteers as tribute. That means there's probably a generation or two between Lucy Gray and Katniss if they are related. Fans also know who Katniss' mother is, so that rules out Lucy Gray being her mom.
Haymitch Abernathy was born 40 years prior to the 74th Hunger Games, during the same year the 34th Hunger Games were held. There is no information regarding his childhood and early teenage years, although it is known that he is from the Seam of District 12, and had a younger brother, a mother, and a girlfriend.
Sadly, Phillip Seymour Hoffman died while filming the final installment in the series, and there was no way around the fact that his characters' role had to be lessened. Specifically he was meant to be in the scene in the film with Katniss where instead Haymitch reads a letter to her from Plutarch.
What happened to cashmere after she won the Hunger Games?
Immediately after Gloss's death, Cashmere charges at Katniss with a knife, apparently intent on killing her, but Johanna digs her axe into Cashmere's chest, killing her.
What happened to Lucy Gray at the end of the book?
Lucy Gray's final line to Coriolanus Snow in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes may appear trivial, but it foreshadows his downfall at the hands of Katniss. Snow and Lucy Gray's final scene in The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes saw tension bubbling beneath the surface, with Lucy Gray leaving the cabin to ...
Ultimately, Dr. Gaul considered these games a disaster, presenting the Capitol as far too vulnerable. She erased all recordings of the games, keeping only a master copy in her own personal vault for her own purposes.
Suzanne Collins has never confirmed the theory labeling Maude Ivory Baird as Katniss' grandmother, but it's possible that the upcoming film adaptation of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes will dive deeper into this idea, perhaps retroactively confirming the theory.
