Ursula (Disney)

Ursula, is the main antagonist of Disney's The Little Mermaid franchise. She is Ariel and Triton's arch-nemesis and is loosely based upon the sea witch in the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale of the same name.

Why She Rocks

 * 1) Ursula is one of the favorite Disney villains precisely because of how confidence, flamboyance and theatrics she is.
 * 2) Ursula belongs to a race of creatures known as Cecaelia, which are half-woman, half-octopus.
 * 3) Ursula is a very dark and wicked villain. Despite this, she has what would be considered a great sense of humor.
 * 4) Ursula is very manipulative who strikes deals with unfortunate merfolk with the promise of making their dreams come true.
 * 5) Unlike many Disney Villains, Ursula puts her henchman Flotsam and Jetsam before anything and everyone else.
 * 6) Her song "Poor Unfortunate Souls" is a fun and memorable villain song.

Trivia

 * 1) Ursula is the only female villain to come from the Disney Renaissance.
 * 2) With Ursula's brief stint as Vanessa, she is one of the few villains to share a voice actress (Jodi Benson) with the film's heroine.
