Her Story[]
Brittany was the first one born of the three Chipette triplets in Australia. All of them were orphaned, but it wasn't mentioned in the series. Luckily, they were taken in the care of by an orphaned human girl named Olivia in an orphanage until they were kidnapped by Miss Grudge (the runner of the orphanage) and Eva (another orphan). The night when Olivia was adopted, the Chipettes all escaped to New York where they worked as miserable diner waitresses and lived on the streets until a few years later, they moved to California and eventually hit the big time after working at a restaurant. At times, Brittany has been shown to be quite impulsive. However, she drives toward any goal she has set with complete determination, stopping just short of ruthlessness. During the series Brittany is a very bubbly and sociable character, she tends to be quite sassy, stubborn, and selfish, but is fairly a very caring and nice girl through, as the series progresses she is depicted as domineering and as somewhat untrustworthy. An example of this is when she dismisses Simon's advice in The Chipmunk Adventure, when he advises them to avoid the easterly route to avoid a hurricane. She believes it to be a trick to slow them down so they'll lose the race. Brittany sometimes has trouble to admit her mistakes. Such as when her balloon is destroyed as a result of being caught in the hurricane. Her sisters demand that she admits her mistake. However as she was trying to admit it, she was unable to say the full sentence, instead changing the subject. However despite her flaws, she still is nice as she was from the start of the series, such as when she at first refuses to help Eleanor take home a kidnapped baby penguin, but later submits after seeing its deep sadness and longing. Like Alvin, Brittany has always taken on the role as leader of the Chipettes, being lead singer or forward speaker for her sisters. Alvin and Brittany have always shared an on/off relationship, often appearing get annoyed by each other. However, they are known to express romantic feelings towards each other. The common scenario between the two is that at first they appear to be friends, but eventually butt heads, argue over the subject for a period of time (often blowing it out of proportion). Despite how bad things get, the two eventually agree that they care for each other and make up. Unlike Alvin, she is a lot friendlier and polite, making it easier for others to approach her and nicer and has better control over her temper than Alvin does, though it is still a bit shorter than most. She is also shown to have a much better and loving relationship with her sisters, becoming visibly concerned and defensive about them when her manager Ian tried to split them up. Unlike her cartoon version, she was able to apologize when she has judged wrongly. In Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, her personality is a mixture of what she was like in the 80s and what she was like in Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel. Sometimes, she and Alvin have hard times with each other, but they truly care for and appreciate each other.

Trivia[]
- Her last name is Miller in the 80's cartoon, but she does not have a stated last name in Live action/CGI. It was presumed to be Seville because of The Chipettes being adopted by Dave.
- Brittany is very similar to Alvin: They are the leaders of their respective groups, very competitive, enjoy extracurricular activities, often the most outspoken, stubborn, vain, impulsive, energetic, and conceited. Their unwise decisions or "spotlight" personalities commonly are the cause of many mishaps and adventures. Despite their flaws, they usually come through for their siblings in the end.
- Brittany "hates" green, as revealed In Cinderella Cinderella, and never really takes the time to realize her younger sister Eleanor likes the color green. However, Eleanor doesn't seem to be offended by this statement. Brittany could just mean that she doesn’t look good in green.
- Brittany is nyctophobic or afraid of the dark.
