Angelica Pickles

**Angelica Charlotte Pickles** is the main antagonist and secondary tritagonist of the series. While this is so, she acts more as an antihero in the films and often sides with the babies at the end against the films' respective main villains. She is voiced by Cheryl Chase in both *Rugrats* (the original and revival) and *All Grown Up!* and is among the series' original characters.

She is a spoiled brat and the cousin of Tommy and Dil Pickles. In 2002, TV Guide declared Angelica Pickles 7th in their list of *Top 50 Greatest Cartoon Characters of All Time*. She is the archenemy of Tommy Pickles and the other Rugrats. Her middle name is 'Charlotte', meaning she is named after her mother. She claims to be 'the prettiest, most beautiful kid in the universe'. Angelica carries her favorite doll Cynthia (a parody of the popular *Barbie* franchise) around with her almost everywhere and fills her room with Cynthia merchandise.

## Summary

Angelica is the bratty daughter of Drew and Charlotte Pickles and the mean, rude, and ridiculously spoiled older cousin of Tommy and Dil Pickles. Angelica is often seen bullying and making fun of her cousins and their friends. Since she's older than the babies, who can only communicate with each other and Angelica, Angelica herself can communicate with the adults as well as the other Rugrats, which she uses to her advantage most of the time. When the character Susie Carmichael was introduced, she was soon favored among the babies, causing Angelica to start a rivalry with her. She'll say and/or do anything to get what she wants--however, Angelica's bratty behavior often gets the best of her, which results in the adults (usually her parents and/or her Aunt Didi and Uncle Stu) punishing her. Despite this, Angelica is quite the manipulator, often playing sweet and innocent in front of adults, only to reveal her true colors the second their backs are turned and she is not being watched. When caught, she likes to excuse her behavior by saying that nobody expects her to act like an angel. Indeed, much of her behavior emulates that of her mother, who is often abrasive and demanding to her fellow adults. Angelica's standard refrain in situations where she actually faces consequences for her actions is that "it's not fair," ignoring any possibility of actually taking responsibility and reforming. Angelica also often likes to blame any problem or commotion she created on the babies, even when it's patently obvious they could not have been responsible.

Cookies are Angelica's favorite food (just like Cookie Monster), and she refuses to eat most "healthy" foods (especially broccoli). Even though Angelica is often very mean to the babies, deep down, she likes them and loves her cousins.

Angelica is always referring to the babies as "just babies" and to herself as an adult, despite being only a year older than Chuckie and Kimi, two years older than Tommy and the twins, Phil DeVille and Lil, and only three years older than Dil--in fact, Dil's the only Rugrat who's technically "just a baby," as all the others are technically toddlers like Angelica and Susie are.
