Total Drama Island/Characters/Others
Total Drama Island's cast got so big that the page had to be split into several pages. This page is for the miscellaneous characters.

Blaineley (Real Name: Mildred O'Halloran) is a Gemmie Award nominated[1] television personality and the current roving reporter for the Total Drama World Tour Aftermath show. Formerly a co-host of the entertainment news show, Celebrity Manhunt, Blaineley feels her current position is beneath her, considers Aftermath hosts Geoff and Bridgette amateurs, and views the rest of past and present Total Drama competitors (except Alejandro and, possibly, Justin) to be losers. Despite this, she seeks to make the most of her situation by doing what she's best at: providing the "drama" in Total Drama. As long as there's a way to create conflict at the expense of others, she'll do so. It is this mentality that eventually led to her downfall.
Tropes exhibited by this character include:
- Attention Whore: See Small Name, Big Ego and Spotlight-Stealing Squad below.
- Bad Boss: In "Aftermath Aftermayhem", we see some of her entourage. They are manacled to each other.
- Balloon Belly
- Bandage Mummy: Becomes this in "Hawaiian Style."
- Berserk Button: You better know who Blaineley Stacey Andrews O'Halloran is, she's fa-fa-famous...famous.
- Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Strong aversion of the second (gross-out oriented) kind.
- Big Eater: She is seen eating a wedding cake, bare handed, in a confessional.
- Big No: When she runs into a giant wedding cake in "Niagara Brawls".
- Bigger Bad
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing
- Blondes Are Evil
- Blue Eyes
- Butt Monkey
- Chew Toy: Geoff even uses that exact word to describe her, and for good reason.
- Do Not Call Me Mildred
- Drama Queen: She tries to act like one, but it comes off more as Large Ham.
- Embarrassing First Name: Mildred.
- Evil Counterpart: To Bridgette in Bridgette Over Troubled Water (note that, during Bridgette's apology song, they even wear near identical dresses except Blaineley's is red and Bridgette's is blue.)
- Gasshole
- Hartman Hips: Talks about her "Blainelicious" frame in her song Blainerific.
- Hot Scoop
- Humiliation Conga: After her elimination, she was pushed out of the plane before he could secure her parachute. She fell into a house roof first and was covered head to toe in bandages and wheeled around on a dolly. When she's on the next Aftermath show, she's laughed at by the peanut gallery because of her fall. Being the only Heather supporter to win, TDWT, she was almost forced to do a challenge for her alone only for Owen to take pity on her and aid her in the challenge. Owen injures her even more, drops her out of the dolly a couple times, uses her as a surfboard and then accidentally drops her in the ocean. She's saved by Bruno the bear before she drowns, but is used as a literal chew toy once she reaches shore.
- Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: In back to back episodes she gets Ship Tease with Owen and Chef.
- "I Am" Song: Blainerific.
- Ironic Hell: Kind of, she's forced to enter in the game after the third TDWT Aftermath.
- It Amused Me
- It's All About Me
- Jerkass
- Lady in Red
- Large Ham
- Laughably Evil: Her Too Dumb to Live moment below, snapping out at Cody for not knowing who she is, announcing an alliance proposal over the plane's loudspeaker and then putting a rapid fire disclaimer after it, and having the guts to use Chris' personal hot tub.
- The Load: On TDWT Aftermath
- My Nayme Is: "Blaine" is usually a surname but can be used as a given name. 'Blaineley' on the other hand is clearly supposed to sound and look ridiculous. And then we find out it isn't her real name.
- Overly Long Name: Blaineley Stacey Andrews O'Halloran is her full name. Except it's actually Mildred.
- Pass the Popcorn
- The Reveal: Before Blaineley is kicked off the show she tells everyone on the plane that Ezekiel is still on the plane, Heather and Alejandro should just kiss already and that Cody always voted for Sierra. Chris is enjoying this until she tells them that she was the original choice to be host of Total Drama. Chris responds by pushing her out the plane.
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: Red to Bridgette's Blue.
- Ship Tease: With Owen, Chris and Chef.
- Small Name, Big Ego: Rivaled only by Chris as the biggest ego on the show. She sings a song about how awesome and famous (in her opinion) she is when she made her debut in the contest proper.
- Smug Snake
- Spell My Name with an "S": Defied; her name and Josh's both appear behind them during the Celebrity Manhunt opening in the Action special. It didn't stop a ton of fans from getting confused about the spelling, though.
- Spotlight-Stealing Squad: In-universe on the Aftermath.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: All her later appearances compared to the special where she debuts.
- Too Dumb to Live: In "Revenge of the Telethon" where a poorly thought out ratings stunt led to an animal stampede wrecking the studio thereby doubling the amount of money the hosts needed to raise.
- "The Villain Sucks" Song: Is the target of one in "Aftermath Aftermayhem".
