Roberta Coretta Tubbs is a main character on the animated sitcom The Cleveland Show. She's the biological daughter of Donna and her ex-husband, Robert. The sister of Rallo, step-sister of Cleveland Jr, and step-daughter of Cleveland. She was apparently named after her father.

Appearance
Roberta is an African American teenage girl of slender build, she has long black hair with a blonde streak in it. Has pearl earrings and a gold chain. She wears a green tube top, blue jeans and white shoes with black stripes. Roberta is usually considered attractive to many other characters on the show and as a result she often uses her looks to get what she wants. Much like her Mother's rear end there is a running gag in the series where a joke is usually made about her breasts.
Personality and Traits
Roberta is shown to be a typical teenage girl, she is popular at school, has a less than respectable boyfriend by the name of Gabriel Friedman "Federline Jones". Despite being from a broken home and having a neglectful father Roberta is rather well adjusted. She is shown to put a foil on her real personality to be accepted by her peers, as shown in the episode "B.M.O.C" where it is revealed that she is actually a very intelligent individual despite her personality as being air headed. She can have a love/hate relationship with her brother Rallo as they at times trick and antagonize each other. She has a caring relationship with Cleveland Jr. and can sympathize with him as they have a similar relationship with their parents. She has a rocky, tough love relationship with her mother Donna as she tends to be rebellious and break the rules, often with her dealing with the consequences in the end and she learns her lessons. Although she is mostly seen making out and spending time with her boyfriend Federline she will leave him for someone else if she gets bored enough as seen in "How Do You Solve A Problem Like Roberta " decides to flirt with other guys in "Nightmare On Grace Street" and leaves him again in "Brownsized", despite all of this the two eventually get back together. She is shown to have attitude at times and even just plain disrespectful especially to Cleveland who she disliked for unknown reasons. Dispite all of this Roberta has warmed up to Cleveland as a Step-Father and has come to accept him into the family. In some episodes she aids the other characters when needed.
