PLP Crush Hall of Fame
Fictional Characters are happening people! This month has taken our Crush Wall by storm. Make sure you check it out who wins every week by stopping by the Fellow’s office! Now, this theme is purposefully vague. We now have the ability to choose fictional characters from famous books, movies, and possibly a Disney week (please contain your excitement). The possibilities are endless with Fictional Characters month! This week, we are specifically focusing on three crush-worthy female characters of popular TV shows. We are very excited about this week’s candidates, and hope you are too! Choose wisely.
Remember, if you have any suggestions for male or female crushes/different themes for each month feel free to email Zach at zachary.walseman@cnu.edu with your ideas!
Just follow the link below to pick the winner for this week!
Here are this week’s contestants!
Lizzie McGuire
Lizzie McGuire was the shy, compassionate, and clumsy teen star of the ‘Lizzie McGuire Show’ that was a hit on the Disney channel in the early 2000’s. Always the first to apologize and incredibly loyal, Lizzie sometimes loses herself in her passionate nature and impulsiveness, but always comes out with a clear head firmly on her shoulders. She is just so spunky!
Blair Waldorf
Blair Cornelia Waldorf is one of the main characters of Gossip Girl introduced in the original series of novels and also appearing in the television and manga adaptations. Described as "a girl of extremes" she is a comical overachiever who possesses both snobbish and sensitive sides. She is the definition of chic!
Lois Griffin
Lois Griffin is one of the main characters in the hit TV ‘Family Guy’. Lois is the wife of Peter Griffin and the mother of Meg, Chris, and Stewie Griffin. She is one of the most popular TV moms in history! She is simply flawless.
