Is she a style icon? Sure. Is she the "heart" of Disney? Maybe not. She’s the original "mean girl" in a lime-green wrapper. Maybe it's time we stop putting her on a pedestal and start looking for icons who don't try to sabotage every other girl who enters the room.

She’s right. Tinker Bell’s entire personality is built on jealousy. While we were kids, we thought it was "feisty." As adults, we realize she’s just toxic.
