Thank you to everyone who participated in Princess of the Month! For November we celebrated Belle, so here's an article on why we adore her:
Belle is my favorite princess, so I could wax eloquent concerning all the things I adore about her. In the interest of space, though, here is one thing I particularly love about her: her sense of self-worth. I don't feel like this is often talked about, but it's really inspiring to see her embrace her interests even in the face of constant ostracization from the townspeople. Everyone thinks she's weird and whispers behind her back, but despite this she knows it's not her personality that is the problem. Rather, she knows she just needs to find the right people who will accept her for who she is. I love this sense of self-confidence she has in herself. She doesn't let the bastards grind her down. ~MaidofOrleans
She is an avid reader. Since I also tended to walk down the street reading a book in the past that makes her very relatable to me. ~Swanpride
I love that she's not afraid to stand up for herself or the people she loves, especially her "crazy old" father. Belle's relationship with Maurice is probably my favorite thing about her; the townspeople mock Maurice because they think he's crazy and instead of being embarrased Belle defends her father from the very start and when he's locked up in Beast's dungeon she offers herself up to take his place even after seeing what the Beast looked like. I could go on and on about how much I love Belle and Maurice's relationship but I don't want to take up too much space for the article :P ~BB2010
I identify myself as her, mainly because I like to read and travel! ~deedragongirl
I love how she is very relatable to me. As a bookworm and someone who feels like they can be an outcast at times, she is my most relatable Disney Princess in terms of the situation ~LMH5113
Hope you all enjoyed POTM this month! I won't be posting anything until December since I am going out of town, but stay tuned for who won POTM for December. :)

Stepmothers are always seen as evil or bad in these movies but what if there is another side to the story and they have their reasons for their actions >>>

1) Josh Groban
I have always been a fan of him and after listening to his rendition of If I Can't Love Her from the musical version on Youtube. I personally felt that Josh should have been cast as the Beast!
2) Urs Buhler & Carlos Marin (Il Divo)
Just so you know that Carlos Marin had previously played the Beast in the Madrid production of Disney's Beauty and the Beast, and I personally felt that his voice is more suitable.
The second choice was his Swiss bandmate, Urs Buhler because he has both the looks and voice for both Prince Adam and the Beast.
3) Il Volo
The Jonas Brother version of Il Divo, they sound perfect and Prince Adam would definitely sound very operatic. Do you agree?
Let The World Be Done with Me!
Here are my 3 choices, do you agree?
