TOPIC RESEARCH

Topic Research

After receiving feedback, I want to consider the idea of princesses and E! News, maybe even The Real Housewives of Happily Ever After. I want to focus on Rapunzel, Beauty and the Beast, and Little Snow White from Dan Ashliman's Folktexts


Rapunzel- Blond Beauty France: Web Link

Key feature: 

  • Rapunzel's grandma was getting in the way of her and the Prince being together. 
  • Her hair is her staple look and without it she wouldn't be Rapunzel. 

Beauty and the Beast: Web Link

Key feature:

  • This is the traditional story of Beauty and the Beast
  • Belle is a very selfless person, who sees good in everyone! 

Little Snow White: Web Link

Key feature: 

  • The Queen is jealous of Snow White for being the "fairest in all the land" 

After reading all these are coming up with some way to intertwine these stories, I noticed there is always someone who is jealous of the princess. I think going with The Real Housewives of Happily Ever After could be so fun. I would write in a style of Season and Episode and each blog there would be some new drama. Maybe Rapunzel talks bad about Belle behind her back and that leads to drama and gossip and then Gaston gets involved? I would love to find more stories of the other princesses! The more the merrier! Maybe Snow White gets called out fro getting plastic surgery or a spray tan? I love thinking of petty drama!
