'''''Princess Protection Program''''' is a Disney Channel original movie starring [[Selena Gomez]] and [[Demi Lovato]]. When a tiny country is invaded by a dictator, a young Princess, Rosalinda (Demi Lovato), is taken into custody by the Princess Protection Program. She is whisked away to rural Louisiana where she must learn the ins and outs of behaving like a normal American teenager. In the process of adapting to her new life, Rosie gives her new friend and roommate, Carter (Selena Gomez), a few lessons in how to act with royal aplomb.

{{tropelist}}
Tropes present in this movie:
* [[Alpha Bitch]]: Chelsea.
* [[Backstabbing the Alpha Bitch]]: Near the end, Chelsea's [[Girl Posse]], including her second-in-command, Brooke, decide they've had it with Chelsea's bad attitude and hang out with Carter and Rosie.
Line 12 ⟶ 13:
* [[Cunning Linguist]]: Rosie, who speaks English, French, Italian, Spanish and Japanese fluently.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Carter, though she's [[Jerkass|not nice about it at first]].
* [[Did You Think I Can't Feel?]]: Not until Carter arrives to the dance in a beautiful dress does Donny finally notice her, when she was practically invisible to him before. She chews him out for being an asshole - "Before I put on this dress, you couldn't even remember my ''name''." - and turns him down for Ed.
* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: Ed to Carter until the end.
* [[Dull Surprise]]: Compared to her acting in ''[[Wizards of Waverly Place]]'', Selena Gomez did not seem to be having much fun with her role in this movie.
* [[Everything's Better Withwith Princesses]]
* [[Gratuitous Spanish]]: In addition to the odd choice of making Rosie's homeland Spanish-speaking, she reverts to Spanish at times when it makes absolutely no sense to do so (e.g., asking Carter where the bathroom is).
* [[Harmless Villain]]: He probably wasn't supposed to be this, but can ''anyone'' really take General Kane seriously? He doesn't really ''do'' anything threatening!
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!|Hey, It's That Girl]]: Chelsea the Alpha Bitch is played by Jamie Chung, of all people.
* [[Hidden in Plain Sight]]: Louisiana seems like a pretty obvious place to hide a princess, but that's the whole point!
* [[Important Haircut]]: Rosalinda gets one early in the movie.
