# Convict Princess Parodies Frozen is the New Black Features Princess Elsa in Prison By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-07-11 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-is-the-new-black References: [jezebel](http://jezebel.com/elsa-goes-to-prison-in-frozen-is-the-new-black-1602518447) & [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NefqXlOmPPA) If you thought protagonist Piper Chapman was a spoiled princess on 'Orange is the New Black,' wait till you get a load of 'Frozen is the New Black,' a spin-off parody of the [Netflix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/streamberry) show starring real-life Princess Elsa. Cartoonist Leigh Lahav re-imagined all of your [Disney favorites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marvel-and-disney) in the confines of a maximum-security women's prison. Quite the departure from the castle, huh ladies? The prisoners include a lesbian Mulan, an unhinged Merida and a pragmatic Ariel, while Beauty and the Beasts' Gaston steps comfortably into his position as a chauvinistic prison guard. This hilarious parody isn't the first time that the Disney princesses have donned an orange jump suit. Graphic designer Maria Bayley had a similar idea when she transformed the Orange is the New Black cast into [Disney Princesses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney). I think I speak for all of us when I say, God Bless the Internet. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.2/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% 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) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Disney-inspired Parodies:** There is an opportunity for creators to make more parodies of popular Disney characters in unexpected settings. - **Gender and Sexuality Representation in Media:** Creating characters that represent the LGBTQ and feminist communities in mainstream media can attract a larger audience. - **Crossover Pop Culture Collaborations:** Businesses can benefit from collaborating with other popular franchises for mutually beneficial product and marketing opportunities. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can capitalize on these trends by producing more media that features unconventional and diverse characters. - **Marketing:** Companies and brands can use these trends to create unique marketing campaigns that appeal to the younger demographic. - **Retail:** The retail industry can benefit from licensing agreements to create merchandise based on popular crossovers, such as 'Frozen is the New Black.' ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsical Character-Inspired Statement Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldo-x-disney.md) - [Princess-Themed Lip Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-glossy-lip.md) - [Fairytale-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection.md) - [Soft-Colored Disney Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinderella-capsule.md) - [Beauty Crime Mockumentaries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmetic-criminals.md) - [Villainous Bridal Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allure-bridals-disney-bridal-gowns.md) - [Enchanting Classic-Animation-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girls-crew.md) - [Dairytale Bridal Tributes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1.md) - [Cozy Cartoon-Themed Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pleasing-3.md)
