LaCinega Boulevardez

LaCienega Boulevardez is a main character of The Proud Family.

She is Penny Proud's arch-rival turned friend of Hispanic descent. She is beautiful, wealthy and has been voted by her peers as the most popular girl in school. She best became known for starting a rumor about Penny and a nerdy boy named Myron Lewinski because she was mad that Penny didn't invite her to a party she threw.

History of LaCingega[]

It is unknown exactly where LaCienega was born since her family moved around a lot in her early life. LaCienega has been in Wizville as early as the age of 4, when she met Dijonay Jones whom she would become good friends with. It is possible they attended pre-school together as Dijonay said that she and LaCienega, "Go all the way back to the sandbox!" LaCienega would be separated from Dijonay as her family moved again and they would not see each other again until their last year of middle school. In between that time however, LaCienega struggled to make and maintain friendships due to relocating so much and also suffered through relentless bullying in elementary school for her big head and feet. As a result, she became insecure about her body at a very young age, fueling her never-ending desire to look beautiful. In order to restore her self-esteem, LaCienega has competed fiercely in a myriad of contests and won them all, helping to build up her her ego. At age 14, LaCienega and her family moved to their current address across the street from Penny Proud and her family. Penny and LaCienega got off to a bitter start as they were set to compete for a spot on the Willie T Ribbs Racer Cheerleader Squad captained by Dijonay; but in a strange turn of events, LaCienega and her family were invited by Suga Mama over to the Proud house for dinner and the entire family hit it off instantly. As a result, LaCienega was forced to embrace Penny becoming a major part of her life through a complicated process. Early on, Penny and LaCienega hated each other but always found themselves stuck together and antagonized each other regularly for fun. During this time, LaCienega was extremely disrespectful towards Penny but gaslighted her mother Trudy into believing that she was a very sweet young lady, when in fact, she was arrogant, cringe, vain, snobbish, and obnoxious so that she would force Penny to hang out with

Personality[]

In spite of her beauty, LaCienega is overtly narcissistic, but beneath the surface, she's extremely sensitive and insecure because of the bullying she suffered in her early youth. Born with a competitive spirit inherited from her dad, LaCienega puts it to good use by winning at beauty pageants, debates, writing contests and more. As a result, she has developed an ego in the place of confidence.

Despite her conceited exterior, LaCienega is lonely inside and relies heavily on validation from her peers in order to maintain her happiness. She is extremely emotional and often comes across as a drama queen even to her own parents. Despite this, LaCienega is very family oriented and works hard to please them. Like Proud, she obeys her parents most of the time, but likes to be sneaky every now and then. She, also does chores around the house, such as cooking and cleaning without even being asked. She once cooked for everyone including the Prouds in "Love Thy Neighbor" and even made Penny's lunch.

  • Ironically, LaCienega has been a better friend to Penny than Dijonay on several occasions. A notable example is in "The Camp, the Counselor, the Mole and the Rock" where LaCienega offered Penny her breath mints and lip gloss so that she wouldn't have bad breath if she got a chance to kiss Tory. In that same episode, LaCienega covered for Penny as promised when Oscar Proud stormed in to withdraw her from camp and ground her while Dijonay eagerly sold Penny out. Zoey and LaCienega were visibly frustrated with Dijonay's ineptitude afterwards.
  • Zoey and LaCienega are exceptionally close despite LaCienega being popular and Zoey being geeky where they have spent quality time together away from Penny and Dijonay and seemed to have bonded over the fact that unlike the latter pair, they don't have any siblings. LaCienega does continue to show frustration with Zoey's awkwardness throughout the series. They are also the two most emotionally intelligent in the group. Maybe this has to do LaCienega finding so much joy in grooming Zoey's hair in "Makeover".
  • LaCienega is the only main character to be absent in Seven Days Of Kwanzaa, though her father appears briefly near the end.
  • LaCienega is absent again in Behind the Family Lines; this time her mother is the only Boulevardez to appear.
  • It has been noted by fans that LaCienega somehow must have been based off of Sly Fox, the wicked stepmother from HBO's Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child episode White Snow or something. It is unknown if this resemblance is accidental or intentional.

LaCienega despises chaos as it causes her to freak out. She keeps herself, her room and all of her belongings neat clean and in order. Penny once described her as "A selfish, spoiled neat freak!" as LaCienega places high value on her material possessions and takes good care of them. She also has a bit of an OCD as she exhibits weird behaviors such as brushing her hair 1,000 times, and almost freaking out when Penny was about to touch her dress despite it being in Penny's room. She does, however, do things completely and thoroughly and pays very close attention to detail; she is nearly a perfectionist. She also ended up being the only one of Penny's friends to help clean up after a house party in "Tween Town." Like Penny, she is also very productive at school. Aside from competing in beauty contests and the like, LaCienega is a cheerleader, ballerina, writer for The Checkerboard Times and also gets straight A's. She is extremely rational and it shows in her exuberant ability to plan and prepare. During the height of their rivalry, she often seemed to be several steps ahead of Penny.

She also has an affinity for babies and is obsessed with Penny's baby brother and sister BeBe and CeCe.

Despite their differences, LaCienega has been a good friend to Penny at times as seen in episodes such as "Hip Hop Helicopter", "Hooray for Iesha", "One in a Million", "The Camp, The Counselor, The Mole and The Rock", and "It takes a Thief"

She is a founding member of the R&B girl-group, LPDZ.
