This actress contains examples of:

• Acting for Two: In iCarly, she plays as Samantha and Melanie Puckett, who are identical twins with opposite traits.
• Alpha Bitch: Pinky Turzo in True Jackson VP.
• Badass Adorable
• Blue Eyes: Though in iCarly they appear brown.
• Cover Version: Homeless Heart by Amanda Stott.
• Cute Bruiser: Sam Puckett
• Deadpan Snarker: Quite a "self-proclaimed nerd" and bubbly all-around in her twitter page, she hilariously counters defamatory tweets against her.
  • She does also pull off some Biting the Hand Humor (on Nickelodeon and MTV, both under Viacom).
• Even the Girls Want Her: Inspires a good deal of girl-crushes on Twitter, to the point that there's a subset of her fans that call themselves 'McLesbians'.
• Genki Girl
• Hair of Gold
• Hollywood Pudgy: Noted throughout the 4th season of iCarly, where she suddenly had a chubbier overall physique; subverted with the 5th season.
• Like Brother and Sister: Has specifically said kissing Nathan Kress feels like this to her and that she dislikes romantic scenes because of it.
• Ms. Fanservice: Now, where to start...
  • Let's start with her dresses at the Kids' Choice Awards: 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012.
  • Here are a few more examples.
• Nice Shoes: Regularly posts pictures of the shoes she's wearing on Twitter.
• Older Than They Look: Jennette (even Sam) is the eldest of the 4 main teen actors in iCarly, but her petite stature is convincing enough to shrug off a few years of her age.
• One of Us: Jennette is a self-proclaimed geek and avid fan of Star Wars and Back to The Future, to the extent where she went to a fan meet up celebrating the films, something that her role Sam Puckett would ridicule her for.
  • Her Twitter profile has listed her location as Dagobah, Hoth, and Hill Valley, and had her celebrating the date Marty first traveled through time.
  • Her text alert tone is Bazinga, for goodness sake!
• Rapunzel Hair
• Running Gag: The Kids Choice Awards never gets to spell her name right. Jennette personally calls them on this in her twitter account every year.
• Typecasting: To the Delinquent roles, with Trisha Kirby and Sam Puckett as the best examples.
