# Real-Life Disney Princesses Disney Princesses in Real Life Might Not Make the Best Friends By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-10-23 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-princess-in-real-life References: [refinery29](http://www.refinery29.com/2014/10/76640/disney-princesses-real-life) & [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOnfwEuA3GI) This hilarious [BuzzFeed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bf-island) video proves that [Disney Princesses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection) in real life aren't all they're cracked out to be. At least, not if you happen to be their best friend. If you're the bestie to a princess, you're almost 100% guaranteed to get the short end of the stick. When they're not searching for their one true love or basking in the glow of their many admirers, these self-absorbed princesses are probably dealing with (read: repressing) their many mommy/daddy issues. Seriously, almost all of their parents are, as they say, "inexplicably absent or horrifically killed." Yup, sounds about right. The hilarious video parodies Ariel, the hoarder; Pocahontas, the passionate gluten-free vegan; and [Jasmine, the shoplifter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disneys-aladdin-friend-like-me-sundae), among others, in amusing sketches that culminate in an exasperated sing-along. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Real-life Disney Princesses:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create experiential theme parks that bring Disney Princesses to life for visitors to interact with. - **Hilarious Buzzfeed Videos:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a platform for user-generated comedic videos that parody popular culture icons. - **Satirical Skits:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Produce a web series that uses satire to critique societal tropes and clichés. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Entertainment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create immersive experiences that blur the line between fiction and reality in the entertainment industry. - **Digital Media:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Build a content platform that empowers users to create and share satirical videos, expanding the digital media landscape. - **Comedy:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Establish a comedy production company that specializes in creating satirical skits targeting popular culture phenomena. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fairytale-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection.md) - [Sparkling Detailed Princess Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/american-girl-doll-1.md) - [Dairytale Bridal Tributes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1.md) - [Princess-Themed Lip Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-glossy-lip.md) - [Body-Positive Disney Shorts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reflect.md) - [Enchanting Classic-Animation-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girls-crew.md) - [Villainous Bridal Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allure-bridals-disney-bridal-gowns.md) - [Whimsical Character-Inspired Statement Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney.md) - [Diverse African Doll Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creativesoul.md)
