The First Black Disney Princess!
It took 72 years from the first Disney movie involving a princess to have a African American Princess BUT it was well worth the wait!
The movie opened December 11, 2009 and I took my daughter and my son to see it. It was packed and I had to end up purchasing tickets online because the first 5 shows were sold out. After we got into the theater there I noticed there were a lot of parent with kids... but there was also grown women alone or in groups waiting to see the movie.
The movie started and I will admit to you (but don't tell anyone) I fell in love with Tiana! I was afraid that there would be ridiculous stereotypes and by the end of the movie I would be disappointed that I even came but it was completely the opposite!!
She is so adorable with her little dimples and modest personality. She was raised with a family with both hardworking parents and was taught to work HARD for all the things she wants in life. But the best part was when I looked over at my daughters face and her eyes were lite up and she had a HUGE smile on her face. She was in love with Tiana too!
If you havent seen The Princess and The Frog, what are you waiting for?
The art and creativity in this movie was the best of Disney quality and you will fall in love with it just like everyone fell for The Lion King!
