First let me apologize for the pictures. My life is 果酱 packed right now and I wanted to get this 文章 published seeing as that we are already past 茉莉, 茉莉花 month. So I used tiffany88's moodboards instead.

Well, it's that time again, now that 茉莉, 茉莉花 月 has ended to give 你 my 列表 of who I think Jasmine's 最喜爱的 princesses would be. Sorry that it's a little late. As always, I don't profess to be an expert on this. Also, I eventually just ended up posting this because I couldn't really come to a conclusion.


10. Cinderella

Yeah...I think we all saw this one coming. Though it's predictable, it's not without merit. 茉莉, 茉莉花 and 灰姑娘 are possibly the two most dissimilar princesses. While 灰姑娘 handles most issues with tact and foresight, 茉莉, 茉莉花 is immediately temperamentally responsive and impulsive. I think Cinderella's situation would totally frustrate 茉莉, 茉莉花 as well as Cinderella's propensity to trust blindly in faith and dreams; 茉莉, 茉莉花 doesn't believe in any of that and takes matters into her own hands. Also, Jasmine's tenacity in speaking her own mind would clash terribly with Cinderella's "keep your head down and just keep believing" mentality. I could see 茉莉, 茉莉花 yelling at her screen, imploring 灰姑娘 to speak up for herself and tell the stepsisters off.

9. Aurora

Like Cinderella, Aurora also blindly goes where she is directed and we never see 茉莉, 茉莉花 have any sense of duty towards being a princess, and I think she would be very frustrated with Aurora accompanying the 精灵 to the 城堡 after she discovers she is a princess; 茉莉, 茉莉花 would surely run away to prevent being condemned to that life. I think she may find Aurora a least a bit clever, we don't see Aurora's sass 或者 outspokenness at all, so I don't see any reason 茉莉, 茉莉花 would have any fondness for her.

8. Snow White

I think that 茉莉, 茉莉花 might be really bothered 由 the stereotypes that Snow White perpetuates, but I think she would at least care 更多 for Snow White's mouth and snark and how Snow White managed to care for herself out on her own, because that's something 茉莉, 茉莉花 wanted to do.

7. Rapunzel

The strong parallel here is being cooped up and never leaving one location; Rapunzel has never left the tower, and 茉莉, 茉莉花 has never been outside the palace walls. I think the disconnect begins with Rapunzel's insecure, optimistic, and endlessly adorable attitude. 茉莉, 茉莉花 is not easily approached 或者 impressed and while she can definitely be naïve, she doesn't allow the wool to be pulled over her eyes as often as Rapunzel does. I think Rapunzel also doesn't have the level of independence that 茉莉, 茉莉花 seeks.

6. Belle

茉莉, 茉莉花 would be very fond of Belle's persistent rejection of Gaston, her refusal to back down from the Beast's outrageous demands, and how Belle longs for adventure, but they don't really have a lot in common. 茉莉, 茉莉花 would probably never change places with her father and if she did I think she would hold a lot of contempt for the Beast. I highly doubt 茉莉, 茉莉花 would ever be 老友记 with the Beast, let alone fall for him, even if he started treating her with kindness. Frankly I don't think that would happen because I think the conversation between 茉莉, 茉莉花 and Beast would be MUCH 更多 explosive and I think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would have tried to escape and she certainly wouldn't try to heal his wounds (though I don't think she would leave him to die in the snow). I don't think she would understand how Belle would ever 爱情 her captor, even if he did change for the better, although I don't think she would necessarily blame Belle for it. I think she also may be part of the pack that gets irritated that Belle laments about her situation but doesn't do anything about it, considering that 茉莉, 茉莉花 was forcibly cooped up 由 the law and the physical constraints of the palace, and Belle never had those kind of constrictions. I think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would definitely like Belle, but not as much as some other princesses.

5. Tiana

茉莉, 茉莉花 would definitely admire Tiana's independence and how she's made her own name for herself and works hard towards obtaining her restaurant. 茉莉, 茉莉花 wants to be autonomous and have her own identity besides 'princess' and I think she would 爱情 that Tiana creates her own dream and does everything on her own. She would especially 爱情 that Tiana gets to be a princess in the end and have all those luxuries but it's 更多 of a bonus along with her finally obtaining her restaurant. I think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would also 爱情 that Tiana doesn't suffer fools and constantly spurns men and criticizes Naveen because I think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would see Naveen as deserving of it. I see Jas as a little 更多 fun loving than Tiana so maybe she would wish that Tiana would take 更多 risks and let loose once in awhile, but mostly she would 爱情 her.

4. Pocahontas

I feel like 茉莉, 茉莉花 would have a girlcrush on Pocahontas. Pocahontas basically lives Jasmine's dream life. Pocahontas has indepdence and all the freedom in the world and people respect and value her opinions when she voices it. Pocahontas is also expected to marry Kocoum but clearly does not want to, although 茉莉, 茉莉花 doesn't seem to carry any burden of responsibility for her people the way 茉莉, 茉莉花 does for her tribe. So Pocahontas also is going through the pressures of being forced into marriage. The whole war/two sides plotline between Pocahontas and John I could see 茉莉, 茉莉花 finding somewhat romantic as well, and she may understand Pocahontas feeling so torn about John because if Pocahontas saves John, she risks disapproval from her people and possible outcasting. I think where the frustration with Pocahontas would come in would be Pocahontas' specific impulsivity. She rides waterfalls but when it comes to interpersonal confrontation she’s reticent. I think that would frustrate 茉莉, 茉莉花 who has no problem getting in faces.

3. Mulan

While they don't necessarily have a lot in common I think it wouldn't matter because what 茉莉, 茉莉花 has in verbal tenacity 花木兰 matches in her actions. They're almost opposites-- 茉莉, 茉莉花 talks the talk 更多 than she walks the walk and 花木兰 is the reverse, still putting her head down and caring about honor and respect 由 the end of the film. 茉莉, 茉莉花 would think 花木兰 is absolutely amazing in cutting her hair, freeing herself from her societal constraints and proving herself in the army. I think she would 爱情 that 花木兰 knows how to fight, how she uses her intellect and strategy in war and how 花木兰 proves everybody wrong and saves China. She would see 花木兰 as some sort of amazing girl superhero. People may argue that Jas wouldn't like that 花木兰 was willing to marry to make her parents happy, but considering that 茉莉, 茉莉花 lives in the same culture, she may understand why 花木兰 was going to go through with it, and appreciate that it didn't happen anyway. 茉莉, 茉莉花 wants people to respect her and hear her out, and people definitely listen to Mulan.


2. Merida

There's not a lot I think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would dislike about Merida. Mer is defiant and absolutely, 更多 than any other princess, REFUSES to let herself be wed to a complete stranger. While 茉莉, 茉莉花 is willing to marry if it's for love, Merida explicitly states she is not ready for marriage at all. I think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would feel so inspired 由 Merida's "And I'll be shooting for my own hand!". Like Jasmine, Merida voices her opinion quite frequently but still doesn't really have a lot of agency and has to be rescued, but she does the best with what she's got. I don't think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would be particularly bothered 由 Merida feeding her mother the cake, I think she would understand that the cake was not poisoned and wouldn't see it as cruel (Someone like Belle, however, would be totally disgusted 由 that action, poisoned cake 或者 not.) 茉莉, 茉莉花 would 爱情 Merida's tomboyish streak even if 茉莉, 茉莉花 doesn't have that herself, because 茉莉, 茉莉花 can also get physical as well. I also don't think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would be bothered that Merida isn't romantic. 茉莉, 茉莉花 only wants to marry for love, so why wouldn't she be fine that Merida isn't in 爱情 yet? I truly think 茉莉, 茉莉花 would find Merida inspiring.



1. Ariel

What's to say here except that 茉莉, 茉莉花 would 爱情 everything about Ariel. I think the line "bright young women, sick of swimmin, ready to stand" would really resonate with Jasmine. Ariel is also a princess who has a lot of pressure put on her to live up to expectations that longs to explore. She stands up for herself but also actually follows through in trying to achieve her independence (whereas 花木兰 showed everything through action rather than verbally, Ariel did both.) 茉莉, 茉莉花 would understand the oppression Ariel feels as well as Ariel loving someone considered "forbidden" and having to change her father's mind. She would 爱情 Ariel's risk taking nature, her excitability when she finally ends up in the human world and both of them have this teenage rebellious streak that may not be well thought out but shows their determination. She would 爱情 how Ariel shows that just because 你 have everything, it doesn't necessarily make 你 happy. I wonder if she would be annoyed 由 Ariel's naivety when it comes to Ursula but 茉莉, 茉莉花 also didn't pick up on Jafar hypnotizing her father, so I don't know. Like I 说 before, 茉莉, 茉莉花 wants her voice to be heard, and Ariel makes people listen to what she wants 由 ironically giving up her voice.
