Spoiled Never Rotten
When we think of spoiled characters, we often imagine someone entitled, self-absorbed, and insufferable. But Charlotte “Lottie” La Bouff from The Princess and the Frog is proof that being spoiled doesn’t have to mean being rotten.
Lottie is the wealthy daughter of one of the richest men in 1920s New Orleans. She’s pampered, gets everything she wants, and has an over-the-top personality. But unlike the typical spoiled rich girl stereotype, Lottie is kind, selfless, and deeply loyal—especially to her best friend, Tiana.
In this video, I’ll break down what makes Lottie La Bouff such a well-written spoiled-but-lovable character. We’ll explore:
✅ Her friendship with Tiana and how it defied racial and class barriers
✅ Her father Eli La Bouff’s influence on her kind-hearted nature
✅ Why she never turned into a jealous rival despite her lifelong dream of marrying a prince
✅ How her character subverts the spoiled brat stereotype while still being fun and dramatic
From her unwavering loyalty to Tiana, to the subtle ways she helped her without overstepping, Lottie is a refreshing take on how to write a spoiled character right.
