9 Secret Facts About Disney Princesses I Bet You Didn't Know Before

Beginning with "Snow White" and continuing with "Moana," Disney has a long history of developing stories centered on female protagonists' adventures. As a result of this, we have a profound understanding of their past, as well as their music and their legends. Naturally, melodies like this are obstinate ear whigs that just won't leave your head.
It's possible that you think you know everything there is to know about Disney princesses, but is that really the case? To tell you the truth, I seriously doubt it. Permit us to enlighten you on the specifics of the situation. The following are nine little-known facts about some of your favorite Disney princesses that you should be aware of.

When "The Little Mermaid" premiered in 1989, Ariel was the first Disney princess in 30 years. Aurora from Sleeping Beauty was the last royal to reign before her.

2. Mulan

Mulan is the only Disney princess who isn't a princess. Let's face it, though; she's the badass of the bunch.

3. Rapunzel

Rapunzel is famous for her lengthy mane. You probably didn't realize, though, that it was 70 feet in length. You're right. With so much hair, you'd assume she had an issue with her neck.

4. Pocahontas

Although Pocahontas is sometimes cited as the first Native American princess from Disney, this is not strictly true. Tiger Lily from "Peter Pan" is the first Native American Disney princess.

5. Anna from "Frozen"

To my knowledge, Anna from "Frozen" is the first Disney princess ever to perform a duet with an antagonist. She didn't realize it at the time, to be fair.

6. Cinderella

Everyone in "Cinderella" wishes that the glass slipper would fit them towards the end. Nevertheless, Cinderella's shoe size was 4 1/2, so it's understandable that nobody else could squeeze into them.

7. Snow White

Because of the film's overwhelming popularity, Walt Disney considered making a sequel named "Snow White Returns," but ultimately decided against it.

8. Jasmine

Jasmine's original name was much longer and unusual. Badroulbadour, like the character in "Arabian Nights," was supposed to be her name.

9. Elsa

To my knowledge, Elsa is the only Disney princess to assume the throne. The Snow Queen, in this instance.
