1. How does it feel to be tagahanga 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 paborito Princess? Why?
For the past several years Belle has remained firmly at the tuktok of my list. I really relate to her desire for adventure and her pag-ibig 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 paborito for so long is that she reminds me of my best friend. My best friend’s paborito 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 paborito Princess? Why?
Rapunzel has remained my least paborito ever since Gusot 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 paborito princess ever changed?
Yes, a few times. My childhood paborito was Ariel. I was OBSESSED with her. No really, I would watch The Little Mermaid at least once a week, dreamily walk around pag-awit “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 pamagat for a while, but once again Belle snuck her way back to the top, and she has remained there ever since.
5. Your paborito Prince? Why?
That’s a tough one, I don’t really have a paborito princes list. I’d probably say Shang, because beneath the cold military exterior you can see his warm and honestly adorable personality. I pag-ibig the scene where he accepts the sword from his father, and when he tells Mulan “You fight good.”
6. Your least paborito Prince? Why?
Prince Charming. No surprises here haha. He has no personality and doesn’t even try to find Sinderella himself, instead leaving it to the Grand Duke. I much prefer Kit from the 2015 live action Cinderella.
7. Your paborito DP movie?
Beauty and the Beast! I pag-ibig 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 paborito 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 nagyelo is my least favorite.)
9. If you could choose one Disney heroine to be in the line-up, who would it be? Where would they rank on your pretty listahan and paborito list?
Kida!!! Atlantis: The Nawawala Empire is one of my paborito non-DP movies, and I’ve always thought she deserved to be a part of the lineup. I pag-ibig 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 favorites list, and seventh on my prettiest list.
10. Which Princess do you relate to most?
Definitely Belle. I share a desire for adventure and a pag-ibig of books 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? Sinderella
Most underrated? Merida
paborito pag-awit voice? Aurora
Least paborito pag-awit voice? Rapunzel
Most annoying? Rapunzel
Least annoying? Belle
12. Your paborito DP couple?
Hmmm another tough one. I’ve never made a paborito couples listahan before. I’d probably say Tiana and Naveen, because they both change each other for the better.
13. Your least paborito 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 paborito DP Outfit?
Tiana’s white dream dress! It is so gorgeous and simple, and it comes with a fabulous feather boa!
15. Your least paborito DP Outfit?
Probably Jasmine’s dark purple outfit that she wears at the very end of Aladdin. I’m not a tagahanga 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 paborito song from each DP movie? (It doesn't have to be sung sa pamamagitan ng the DP)
Snow White: Someday My Prince Will Come
Cinderella: So This Is pag-ibig
Sleeping Beauty: I Wonder
The Little Mermaid: Poor Unfortunate Souls
Beauty and the Beast: Belle (reprise)
Aladdin: Prince Ali
Pocahontas: mga kulay of the Wind
Mulan: I’ll Make a Man Out of You

The Little Mermaid: Max
Beauty and the Beast: Cogsworth
Aladdin: Genie
Pocahontas: Grandmother Willow

18. paborito and least paborito DP sidekick?

19. paborito DP Quote?
“The bulaklak that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.”
20. paborito Disney movie? (Not being a DP or Pixar movie)
Atlantis: The Nawawala Empire
21. paborito Pixar movie?
Can it be a DP movie? If so then Brave. If not, then probably WALL-E.
22. Which DP do you want to be best mga kaibigan with?
Merida! She could teach me archery and falconry and stuff. It would be so much fun.
23. Which DP do you think you 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 or who rubs me the wrong way.
24. paborito crossover couple? (the princess with another Disney character or prince)
Sinderella 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 Sinderella is very accepting. I think that Cinderella’s kindness would soften some of Tiana’s sharp edges, while Tiana’s outspokenness would teach Sinderella that sometimes it’s ok to be a little madami forceful.
25. Have you ever been to any of the Disney theme parks? Which one? If not, which one would you 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 or 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 paborito activity on Fanpop?
Probably participating in countdowns or making my own. They are always very interesting, and it’s nice to look pasulong to the susunod poll 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 madami Disney Princess movies. I pag-ibig the franchise, and while some feel that the lineup is getting too crowded, I say the madami the merrier!
29. If you woke up one araw and were stuck in a Disney movie, which movie would you want it to be?
Brave, because I could do fun things with Merida once the madala issue got itself sorted out. Or Beauty and the Beast because Belle could give me some really great book recommendations.
