Character Fight All Stars: Hannah Montana vs Jem

So, you want to be a famous singer, but you also want to be a normal person. What do you do? You can A, Get an AI to build you a hologram face, or B, put on a wig and change your voice a bit. Clearly I am talking about two TV  shows. One is still a popular topic years after it ended, and the other faded of into obscurity until a recent movie reboot was announced. I'm talking about Hannah Montana and Jem. I had know Idea what Jem was until I watched the Robot Chicken spoof. And I am a closeted Hannah Montana fan. I pretend to hate it in public, but I secretly love it. I know all the songs, I watched every episode, I saw the movie, I saw the 3D concert, You get the picture. But I decided to educate myself on some Jem and the Holograms, since it would be unfair to not know anything about the other character. So, here it is. Teen Pop sensation, Hannah Montana vs 80's Diva Jem. 

Begin Battle!

Pop Star Beginnings

In Jem, Jericha Benton (That's a name) has the responsibility of looking after Starlight Records after the untimely death of her father. she later finds a computer program under her house called synergy (sounds like a 5 hour energy rip off) Synergy projects a Hologram on Jericha's face, and she takes on the persona of Jem, a pink haired 80's pop star. (Thank god this was a cartoon.)

In Hannah Montana, Miley Stewart(Played by Miley Cyrus) is a normal country girl living on the coast of California. Her best friend Lily(Plated by Emily Osment) buys two tickets to see Hannah Montana, a teen pop Idol, but Miley refuses the other ticket, which makes Lily sad. Lily goes to the concert, and even sneaks into Hannah Montana's dressing room afterwards, but when Lily actually sees Hannah Montana, she makes a shocking Revelation. Hannah Montana, is actually Miley! Turns out Miley had been wearing disguise, because she wants to be a pop star, but at the same time,she also wants to live a normal teenaged life. 

While Hannah Montana does have an ingeniously crazy plot line, Jem is even crazier. A hologram face? where did they get this? Point goes to Jem!

The Star

Jem as an Icon is very outrageous! Jem as a character on the other hand, is very bland and Generic. Miley, on the other hand, plays it over the top, and Over the top is way better than bland. Point goes to Hannah!

Double Life Motivation

In Jem, I had no idea why she needed an alter ego. She's already a rich heiress, so why make up an alter ego? Hannah Montana, on the other hand, was created so that Miley, her true identity, can sing on stage, and live the life of a normal teenaged girl. that's why the theme song is called "Best of Both Worlds" Point goes to Hannah!

Rockin' Villains

Hannah Montana didn't really have villains. Unless you count Selena Gomez's character, Mikayla. Jem, on the other hand,had three villains. their names are Pizzazz, Roxxy and Stormer, and they are...The Misfits! They are the Misfits! They're gonna get her! Point goes to Jem.

The Music

This one is a bit more opinion based. And in My opinion, Hannah Montana had better songs than Jem. "Best of Both Worlds" "Nobody's Perfect" "The Climb" "Rockstar" Hannah Wins!

Co-stars

Jem has her bandmates, who's personalities all mirror hers. and by that, I mean very one dimensional. Miley's co-stars, however, are her Best friends. There's Lily, Miley's skater girl bestie, and Oliver, The nerdy guy friend. Then there's Jackson, Miley's obnoxious older brother, and her dad, Robby Ray. Then there's Roxy, Aunt Dolly, Mammaw, Jake Ryan, Miley's mom and many more. Point goes to Hannah.



And the winner is...
