Malina (The Emperor's New School)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Melina is a fictional character from the Disney animated series The Emperor's New School. She is the only major character from that series that has not previously appeared in either The Emperor's New Groove or Kronk's New Groove.
She is portrayed in the series as Kuzco's friend and almost-love interest. However, he has a not-so-secret crush on her (he often calls her "a hottie hot hottie").
Melina is a cheerleader who also is very smart. She prints the Academy's news scroll. She always gets A pluses, a requirement for the cheerleading squad. She is driven to excel almost to the point of having a nervous breakdown if she doesn't do everything perfectly perfect, and has a very high moral mindset which the show uses as a foil against Kuzco's wild intentions. Melina is sometimes bossy and mean mentioned by Kuzco in one episode.
Malina is also set with a challenge before her: Get Kuzco to do the right thing. She tries to reason with him about cheating, going over-egoistic, hurting someone's feelings, superstitions that make no sense, the works.
Melina is the smart side of her group of friends. She always has to show Kuzco the correct desiscion to choose to do.
She often also uses Kuzco's crush to get him to do the right thing. It has been hinted that Melina likes Kuzco, for example in one episode she seems to look forward to a date with Kuzco. Jessica Di Cicco provides the voice for Melina.
