Chipettes

The Chipettes are a fictional trio of female anthropomorphic chipmunks who are the female counterparts to Alvin and the Chipmunks. They are the creations of Ross Bagdasarian Sr., appearing in the animated television series Alvin and the Chipmunks and its various sequels and spin-offs. The Chipettes consist of Brittany Miller, the leader and often the most vain and assertive; Jeanette Miller, the tallest and most intelligent but also the most clumsy and timid; and Eleanor Miller, the shortest and most athletic and good-natured, often serving as a mediator between her sisters.

Originally introduced in the 1983 animated series, The Chipettes quickly became popular characters. They are often depicted as rivals to Alvin, Simon, and Theodore, engaging in musical competitions and humorous arguments. Despite their rivalries, there are often moments of cooperation and affection between the two groups, particularly in later iterations of the franchise. The Chipettes have their own distinct personalities and storylines, often focusing on their individual aspirations, friendships, and the challenges of navigating life with their adoptive father and manager, Dave Seville. Their music is a significant aspect of their characters, with the trio performing various songs throughout the series. The characters have been voiced by several actresses over the years, most notably Janice Karman, who has voiced the Chipettes in multiple productions.
