10 Reasons Why Belle Is The Best Disney Love Story Princess

On Friday the studio released some photos of the up and coming live action version of "Beauty and the Beast." The photos gave a sneak peek at Beast, Gaston, and Lumiere and Cogsworth. Though those were really cool stills, I was depressed they didn’t throw in an image of my favorite Disney heroine, Belle. It would have been perfect since it was women’s equality day, and who better to be seen as a great role model than Belle in a love story? From a young age, I saw her as a role model. Not only can she pull off yellow, but Belle is a Disney Princess who doesn’t believe she needs a man, though she finds one. So here’s why Belle is a the best Disney love story princess.

1. She's friendly, even to the furniture—talking furniture that would scare the crap out of any human being...

2. She doesn’t believe it’s just a man’s world, and refuses to submit to Gaston’s advances though he doesn’t appreciate her.

Just because you're hot doesn't mean you're my type...


3. She’s a bookworm and isn’t ashamed of reading in the middle of town with sheep everywhere. She's also not stuck up and knows a well loved book may get a little injured. I mean, we can't always predict if a sheep is going to take a bite out of our favorite book or not...

4. She sees past the Beast's exterior and accepts him.


5. She’s like the honey badger. She’s an outcast that doesn't give a sh*t.

Equates to:

6. She doesn't suffer from Stockholm Syndrome though some people would like you to believe it. The Beast's staff may try to manipulate her into loving him...

But she falls on her own...

7. Unlike some people, she doesn't make fun of Beast for his inability to read. She helps him learn, which is more than I can say for some teachers today.

8. She makes yellow work as a dress color and pulls it off well.

9. Belle sees through Beast’s tough exterior and acknowledges that he's struggling. She helps him cope and falls for who he is—not because he's beautiful like Gaston, but because he accepts her to be herself too. I mean, he gave her a freaking library!

10. She’s being played by the amazing Emma Watson, who’s just as bada** as Belle. I mean, who better to play Belle than a feminist who wants equality for all! Just like how Belle breaks the Disney stereotype of the “possession Princess” and wants the Beast to be seen as everyone’s equal too…

I love romances, and "Beauty and the Beast" has to be one of the best. Compared to other love stories, Belle definitely one ups all the other princesses. Therefore, I can’t wait for Disney’s new live action "Beauty and the Beast." Just this teaser alone made me squeal!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
