1. How does it feel to be Fan of the Month?
It feels absolutely amazing. I was so surprised when I was notified since I didn't expect it at all! I am not a regularly active user because I tend to be busy with school, so I'm usually only really active during school breaks. Nevertheless it is so flattering to be recognized in this way!
2. Your Favorit Princess? Why?
For the past several years Belle has remained firmly at the oben, nach oben of my list. I really relate to her desire for adventure and her Liebe of books. I think that her bravery and ability to see past the surface of people are incredibly admirable. I think that the real reason why she has unwaveringly been my Favorit for so long is that she reminds me of my best friend. My best friend’s Favorit fairy tale has always been Beauty and the Beast, and so now that we go to college in different states watching Disney’s Beauty and the Beast reminds me of her and helps me to bridge the distance between us. Belle is both a comfort to me and a role model.
3. Your least Favorit Princess? Why?
Rapunzel has remained my least Favorit ever since Rapunzel – Neu verföhnt was released, although if Anna and Elsa are ever coronated Anna just might steal the spot from her. I don’t dislike Rapunzel, I simply find that her movie seems like it’s forcing me to like her, and that really bothers me. It makes her come across as a Mary Sue. She’s just a little too quirky, a little too cute, and a little too perfect.
4. Has your Favorit princess ever changed?
Yes, a few times. My childhood Favorit was Ariel. I was OBSESSED with her. No really, I would watch The Little Mermaid at least once a week, dreamily walk around Singen “Part of That World,” force my father to act out scenes from the movie (me being Ariel, he being everyone else), and anytime I went swimming I spent the whole time pretending I was a mermaid. I didn’t even get my first haircut until I was in the third grade because I wanted my hair to be like Ariel’s! After Ariel I discovered Belle because my best friend loved her. Then for a brief time in middle school Aurora became my favorite, after which Belle reinstated herself. After I first saw The Princess and the Frog, Tiana held the Titel for a while, but once again Belle snuck her way back to the top, and she has remained there ever since.
5. Your Favorit Prince? Why?
That’s a tough one, I don’t really have a Favorit princes list. I’d probably say Shang, because beneath the cold military exterior Du can see his warm and honestly adorable personality. I Liebe the scene where he accepts the sword from his father, and when he tells Mulan “You fight good.”
6. Your least Favorit Prince? Why?
Prince Charming. No surprises here haha. He has no personality and doesn’t even try to find Aschenputtel himself, instead leaving it to the Grand Duke. I much prefer Kit from the 2015 live action Cinderella.
7. Your Favorit DP movie?
Beauty and the Beast! I Liebe the message it sends, and the characters and Animation are wonderful. There isn’t a single character in this movie that I dislike. The soundtrack can send shivers down my spine and bring tears to my eyes. I think it is the best movie Disney has ever done.
8. Your least Favorit DP movie?
Unfortunately I’m going to have to say Cinderella. It’s a beautiful and timeless film, but the mice grate on my nerves enough to put it at the bottom of my list. (If we are including Elsa and Anna in the lineup though, then Frozen is my least favorite.)
9. If Du could choose one Disney heroine to be in the line-up, who would it be? Where would they rank on your pretty Liste and Favorit list?
Kida!!! Atlantis: The Lost Empire is one of my Favorit non-DP movies, and I’ve always thought she deserved to be a part of the lineup. I Liebe her desire to help her people and her willingness to do anything for them, as well as her curiosity for history. She would be fourth on my Favoriten list, and seventh on my prettiest list.
10. Which Princess do Du relate to most?
Definitely Belle. I share a desire for adventure and a Liebe of Bücher with her, as well as an ability to see the good in people. I can also relate to Pocahontas and Aurora.
11. Who is your...
Prettiest? Tiana
Funniest? Merida
Smartest? Mulan
Nicest? Aschenputtel
Most underrated? Merida
Favorit Singen voice? Aurora
Least Favorit Singen voice? Rapunzel
Most annoying? Rapunzel
Least annoying? Belle
12. Your Favorit DP couple?
Hmmm another tough one. I’ve never made a Favorit couples Liste before. I’d probably say Tiana and Naveen, because they both change each other for the better.
13. Your least Favorit DP couple?
Mulan and Shang. Their relationship feels very shoe-horned in at the end. I would have preferred it if they had just remained friends.
14. Your Favorit DP Outfit?
Tiana’s white dream dress! It is so gorgeous and simple, and it comes with a fabulous feather boa!
15. Your least Favorit DP Outfit?
Probably Jasmine’s dark purple outfit that she wears at the very end of Aladdin. I’m not a Fan of most of her outfits, but this one is the worst in my opinion. I don’t like that shade of purple on her.
16. What is your Favorit song from each DP movie? (It doesn't have to be sung Von the DP)
Snow White: Someday My Prince Will Come
Cinderella: So This Is Liebe
Sleeping Beauty: I Wonder
The Little Mermaid: Poor Unfortunate Souls
Beauty and the Beast: Belle (reprise)
Aladdin: Prince Ali
Pocahontas: Farben of the Wind
Mulan: I’ll Make a Man Out of Du
Princess and the Frog: Almost There
Tangled: I See the Light
Brave: Noble Maiden Fair
Frozen: Vuelie

Snow White: the Evil Queen
Cinderella: the Fairy Godmother
Sleeping Beauty: Merryweather
The Little Mermaid: Max
Beauty and the Beast: Cogsworth
Aladdin: Genie
Pocahontas: Grandmother Willow
Mulan: Li Shang
Princess and the Frog: charlotte
Tangled: Eugene Fitzherbert

18. Favorit and least Favorit DP sidekick?
Favorite: Merryweather
Least: Gus
19. Favorit DP Quote?
“The blume that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.”
20. Favorit Disney movie? (Not being a DP oder Pixar movie)
Atlantis: The Lost Empire
21. Favorit Pixar movie?
Can it be a DP movie? If so then Brave. If not, then probably WALL-E.
22. Which DP do Du want to be best Friends with?
Merida! She could teach me archery and falconry and stuff. It would be so much fun.
23. Which DP do Du think Du would not get along with?
Honestly, none of them. I tend to get along with most people I meet. I usually see the good in people and focus on it, so it’s rare for me to meet someone I dislike oder who rubs me the wrong way.
24. Favorit crossover couple? (the princess with another Disney character oder prince)
Aschenputtel and Tiana. I think they would be the most adorable couple! They are both very driven, but have enough differences that their relationship would remain interesting. Tiana tends to be somewhat judgmental while Aschenputtel is very accepting. I think that Cinderella’s kindness would soften some of Tiana’s sharp edges, while Tiana’s outspokenness would teach Aschenputtel that sometimes it’s ok to be a little Mehr forceful.
25. Have Du ever been to any of the Disney theme parks? Which one? If not, which one would Du like to go to?
I have been to both Disneyland and Disney World once each. Of the two I preferred Disneyland. I got to meet Pocahontas when I was at Disney World though! She is the only princess I’ve ever met. She complimented me on my hat. :)
26. CGI oder Hand-drawn animation?
Both are beautiful, but I have to say hand drawn animation. In CGI things can be very detailed, but characters’ skin tends to look plasticky, which is annoying. I enjoy the simple beauty of hand drawn animation, as well as the versatility that can come from the different styles.
27. What's your Favorit activity on Fanpop?
Probably participating in countdowns oder making my own. They are always very interesting, and it’s nice to look vorwärts-, nach vorn to the Weiter Umfrage in the countdown.
28. What are your hopes on...
Fanpop? That we will continue to attract new and active users, and that those who are already here will continue being the wonderful people they are.
Upcoming Disney movies? I am INCREDIBLY excited for Moana! I fear that they might be rushing its development, but I am hopeful nonetheless. A seafaring princess sounds so cool.
Future Disney movies? I hope we get Mehr Disney Princess movies. I Liebe the franchise, and while some feel that the lineup is getting too crowded, I say the Mehr the merrier!
29. If Du woke up one Tag and were stuck in a Disney movie, which movie would Du want it to be?
Brave, because I could do fun things with Merida once the bär issue got itself sorted out. oder Beauty and the Beast because Belle could give me some really great book recommendations.
