- I can't believe it's been 70 years.
You've been through so much.
I mean the joy, the laughter, the love,
and remember that one time the fairy godmother
turned your pumpkin into a carriage
and then took you to the ball?
That was so amazing.
- Are you talking to Cinderella again?
- Maybe.
(children laugh)
- [Girls] Surprise!
- Hi I'm Isabella.
- And I'm Caitlin.
- Today's a very special episode
of the Disney Princess Club.
- Yes, today we're celebrating
the 70th anniversary of Cinderella.
- And what better way to celebrate
than with some fun facts
you might not have known about Cinderella.
- Happy anniversary Cinderella!
And here are your facts.
- [Girls] Fact number one!
- Did you know that Cinderella's
shoe size is a four and a half?
- [Isabella] That's so small!
Now the average woman shoe size
is eight and a half.
- I guess the only person that
can fit in her shoe is Gus-Gus!
- Oh, feet! (laughing)
- [Girls] Fact number two!
- Cinderella is the first non-royal born princess.
It's what makes her story so inspirational.
- Being a princess is in.
- Mhm.
- [Stepmom] Cinderella!
- Coming, coming.
- [Girls] Fact number three!
- Cinderella and Tiana are the oldest Disney princesses
when their stories take place.
- How old was Cinderella?
- She was 19 when she went to the ball!
- That's so cool.
- Why, it's like a dream, a wonderful dream come true.
- Fact number
- Four!
The scene where Cinderella's fairy godmother
transforms her torn dress is said to be
Walt Disney's favorite scene.
I understand why he loves it,
it's such a beautiful moment.
- [Caitlin] It is, and all the sparkles.
- [Girls] (imitating sparkling noises)
- Yes, it's lovely dear.
- [Girls] Fact number five!
- Did you know that Cinderella' dress
is actually silver, not blue?
- [Girls] What?
- Did you ever see such a beautiful dress?
- Everything I know is a lie.
- Mhm.
- [Girls] Fact number six!
- So you know at the beginning of
every Disney film, there's a castle logo?
- Yes.
- Well, it's actually Cinderella's castle
that they used for the design.
- [Caitlin] (gasp) Really?
- [Isabella] Yeah.
- [Caitlin] That castle is so iconic!
I wonder if Walt Disney knew it
was gonna be so well-known.
- How many rooms do you think there are?
- Hmm, a lot.
{laughing}
- [Cinderella] After all, I suppose it would be
frightfully dull, and boring, and completely,
completely wonderful.
- [Girls] Fact number seven!
- Did you know that Cinderella was the
first Disney princess written to be funny?
- He said it's urgent.
Maybe I should interrupt the, uh, music lesson.
- Why did Cinderella get
kicked off the baseball team?
Because she was running away from the ball!
Is this thing even on?
Hello?
- [Girls] Fact number eight.
- Have you ever noticed that
Cinderella's stepmother hardly ever moves?
This was intentional to make her seem more scary.
(ominous music)
Spooky.
- [Girls] Fact number nine.
- Cinderella's dress style was
actually inspired by 1950's French haute couture.
- At that time, French fashion was very influential.
- Isn't it lovely?
Do you like it?
- [Girls] Fact number 10.
- Did you know that Cinderella's prince
is only known as Prince Charming?
- [Caitlin] Hm, this ain't your story Prince Charming.
(laugh)
- It's Cinderella's.
- Still not the worst name to be known by.
- [Girls] Fact number 11.
- Cinderella's mouse friend Gus'
name is Octavius,
but she calls him Gus for short.
- [Cinderella] Now for a name,
I've got one, Octavius,
but for short, we'll call you Gus.
- Like it Gus-Gus?
Like it, like it?
- Gus, gus (laughing).
- I'd like a nickname.
- What about, Princess Caitlin Sparklepants?
(laughing)
- I love it!
- Cinderelly! Cinderella! (squeaking)
- That was a great celebration.
- Now I better get out here before I turn into a pumpkin.
- Hope y'all had fun today here
at the Disney Princess Club!
- See you next time!
- [Girls] Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Bye!
