Daisy Duck is the female protagonist of the Donald Duck franchise and one of the main characters of the Mickey Mouse franchise.
As a stylish prima-donna, she is the girlfriend of Donald Duck, the best friend of Minnie Mouse and the aunt of April, May, and June who first appeared in the short Mr. Duck Steps Out. Like Donald, Daisy is an anthropomorphic white duck with no pants, but has large eyelashes and ruffled tail feathers to suggest a skirt. She is often seen wearing a hair bow, blouse, and shoes. Daisy usually shows a strong affinity towards Donald, although she is often characterized as being more sophisticated than him.
Daisy does not like it when Donald loses his temper and flies into a rage and she has told him so on more than one occasion. Ironically, however, on the rare occasions when Daisy loses her cool, her temper proves to be even worse than Donald's (as seen in the Walt Disney animated short Cured Duck).
She was voiced by the late Clarence Nash, the original voice of Donald and his nephews, Gloria Blondell, Ruth Clifford, Vivi Janiss, and June Foray in the old shorts. In her further appearances, she was voiced by the late Janet Waldo and Patricia Parris in Mickey's Christmas Carol, Kath Soucie in Down and Out with Donald Duck and Quack Pack, Diane Michelle a few appearances in Mickey Mouse Works and House of Mouse as an alternative voice and the late Russi Taylor in Fantasia 2000, the original voice of Minnie. Currently, she is now voiced by Tress MacNeille. In the second season of Mickey Mouse Funhouse, she is voiced by Debra Wilson.
Originally Daisy Duck was a minor character featured on special occasions in cartoons starring Donald Duck, Daisy would eventually become a recurring character in Disney productions, then turned main character, joining the likes of Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, the aforementioned Donald and Pluto, as one of the company's primary stars; making appearances in all forms of media around the world.
Her first appearance in the classic short features but only when Donald appeared. The first of five major roles in her appearances Mr. Duck Steps Out, The Nifty NinetiesDonald's Crime, Sleepy Time Donald, Donald's Dilemma, Donald's Dream Voice, Donald's Diary and How to Have an Accident at Work. She took her role serious in the comics and books as she and Donald go through tougher times than in the TV series. She made few appearances in Walt Disney anthology series, where relationship gets just as serious. Since the 1980s, she became a regular character and one of the main characters, which soon formed the Sensational Six.
Physical Appearance[]
Daisy is like a female counterpart of Donald. She is a white duck with an orange bill, legs, and feet. She usually has lavender eye shadow, long distinct eyelashes, and ruffled feathers around her lowest region to suggest a skirt. Like Donald, she typically doesn't wear pants, although she sometimes wears an actual skirt or longer dresses and clothes to cover her bottom.
She's usually seen sporting a blouse with puffed short sleeves and a V-neckline. She also wears a matching bow, heeled shoes, and a single bangle on her left wrist. The colors of her clothes change very often, but her signature colors are usually purple and pink. In comic series, while she also wears pink, she mainly later wears red with black.
The television series Quack Pack gave Daisy Duck a more mature wardrobe and hairstyle and cast her as a career woman with a television reporter job. House of Mouse got her a blue and purple employee uniform, with a blue bow, and a long ponytail. In Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Daisy regained her purple blouse with a purple bow and shoes. She also wears a gold bangle and has a short ponytail, similar to the longer one seen in House of Mouse. It was used again in Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up Adventures while not working at Mickey’s garage. While working, she would wear a blue shirt with dark pants and a red bandanna tied around her head.
In the new Mickey Mouse animated TV series, Daisy wears her trademark blouse in a pink and matching bow. She also sports a pair of white boots with pink daisy designs on the outer sides of them.
In the DuckTales reboot, Daisy's hair is in a bun with a black ribbon similar to her appearance from Donald's Diary and she wears black shoes with bows. Her eyelids, which are usually magenta colored, were a shade of green. In her debut, she wore an overcoat with her traditional pink while wearing a blue and green sparkling dress with a black strap. Her main clothing is a long pink sleeveless dress with a thin dark pink strap.
Personality[]
Daisy is the beautiful girlfriend of Donald Duck and best friend of Minnie Mouse. Like Donald, she is capable of going into rages when upset and possibly more dangerous than Donald. Despite this, she manages to keep her temper down a lot better. In early appearances, Daisy was shown to be a loving girlfriend always there for Donald but always having the tendency to nag and change Donald's way but always for the better. She has faith in her boyfriend knowing that she is so important to him that he will strive to change but usually fails in the end.
In later years, Daisy became more than just a high maintenance female version of Donald, but a fun-loving and fashion forward diva. She often annoys her friends being that she loves to talk, is easily bored and at times can overstay her welcome. Even Donald would occasionally find her to be a nuisance. She loves the spotlight and can be very competitive but always looks for the best way to apologize, knowing her right and wrongs, and is shown to love and care for her friends deeply.
A lover of glamour, she's shown to be worldly, sophisticated, well bred and loves to be "surrounded by pretty things." Her confidence and aggressiveness point a sharp contrast to Minnie's shy, more demure personality. Her enthusiastic nature can get her to act a bit silly and ditzy, but she's actually quite mature when she needs to be. She's someone whose fiercely determined and strives to get what she wants by any means.
