VenetianPrincess
VenetianPrincess (real name Jodie Rivera) is a YouTube celebrity and self-described "one-woman show" from Boston who specializes in making Music Video parodies of celebrities and pop culture. In a sense, she's the Distaff Counterpart of "Weird Al" Yankovic. She was the most-subscribed woman on YouTube in the late 2000's, and hers was once the tenth most-subscribed channel overall.
VenetianPrincess provides examples of the following tropes:
- Acting for Two: Several times in her parodies. Some of those extras, such as Myrtle the grandma, end up recurring.
- Affectionate Parody: VP is a fan of Miley Cyrus, which gives her a lot more leeway to make fun of her Merchandise-Driven nature or her Vanity Fair photo shoot scandal.
- Her parody of Twilight, "Vegetarian Vampire".
- Credits Gag : In the "I Gotta Go" video, all but one role is Venetian Princess/VP. The last role being VP's dad.
- Everything's Better with Princesses
- Hollywood Cyborg: The ending of her Tomb Raider parody.
- Human Aliens: Outer Space, parody of Lady Gaga 's Poker Face
- I Just Want to Be Normal: The subject of the song "Just a Zombie", which asks the question: what if Taylor Swift was a zombie?
- Mythology Gag: Her "Speidi Free" (a parody of Britney Spears' "3") video shows some newspaper articles referring to her previous works, such as her Miley Cyrus look (You Look Like Poo), zombie Taylor Swift (Just a Zombie) and Lady Gaga's spaceship (Outer Space).
- Nerds Are Sexy: Spoofed in her Womanizer parody.
- Self Fanservice: In The Snooki Song, she actually makes Snooki seem cute.
- Shout-Out:
- Outer Space mentions Jabba The Hut.
- The End is Nigh, other than spoofing apocalyptic predictions, also mentions Angelina Jolie's right leg, which was a meme for a while.
- Take That
- The song Speidi Free is one long Take That at Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt.
- The song Kardashian Boycott is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Her The End Is Nigh gives it another jab.
- Unexpected Genre Change: The song "Tinseltown Nanny" starts out like it's parodying Mary Poppins. Then it turns into Gangsta Rap...
