Daisy Duck

Daisy Duck is often considered a sixth member of the fab five characters. She is known as the girlfriend of Donald Duck and the best friend of Minnie Mouse. She has huge fits of rage, some say even worse than those of Donald Duck: however, as her character develops we realize her true identity. Daisy loves glamour, pretty things and is considered a fun-loving, sophisticated, fashion forward diva. She is very enthusiastic, silly and sometimes a little bit ditzy.
Daisy is always sporting her indigo eyeshadow and usually wears a v-neck blouse with puffy sleeves and a large bow sits on her head. Her shirt often times changes to any color on the rainbow, but her most common colors are pink and purple.
Daisy’s parents are shown in the 1954 short, Donald’s Diary. She is shown to have three nieces in the 1953 short, Flip Decision. Their names April, May and June and also a nephew Desmond.
Daisy Duck has been very inconsistent with her voice. For her first few appearances, she sounded extremely similar to Donald only higher pitched. But she soon changes to her glamourous smooth voice we all know today. Daisy was most extensively voiced by Tress MacNeille who took the roll in 1999, but has had many others play the part including Gloria Blondell, Ruth Clifford, Vivi Janiss, Janet Waldo, Patricia Paris and Clarence Nash who also voiced Donald.
She first appears as Donna Duck in the short Don Donald. In the short Don is planning to court Donna somewhere in Mexico. His efforts are frustrated when she finally drives away on her unicycle.

Daisy then appears as herself in the 1940 short, Mr. Duck Steps Out. In this short, Daisy goes to Donald's house for her first date with her new love interest. Huey, Dewey, and Louie interrupt their time together and cause a whole ton of rucus, but in the end Daisy still falls for Donald and showers him in kisses.

Daisy is featured in many things such as television shows, comic strips, movies, animated shorts, and is seen in the Disney Parks.
