My favorite Disney villain is, by far, Cruella de Vil. First of all, I love a name that is severely on the nose, and you don’t get more on the nose than ‘Cruella DeVil.’ She’s one of those villains who has so much fun with being evil; killing puppies is a whimsically horrible hobby. I also respect that she outshines every other character in that movie by miles! Roger and Anita, who? Pongo and Perdita where? The only name on my lips rhymes with Chiaobella Until. 

I don’t mean to brag, but I played Cruella de Vil in my community theatre’s production of 101 Dalmatians KIDS. I was the only 5’6 11-year-old in the place, so naturally, the role went to me. I wore 4-inch platforms meant for an actor in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, which might’ve been inappropriate for me but was absolute perfection for Cruella. If you were a Cruella apologist even before the sympathetic Emma Stone movie, you would adore these Disney memes, darling!
