Cheyenne Martin #3

Oh, I forgot to mention that Ivy Slade and Cheyenne Martin were once best friends, before Cheyenne chose to join Billings and Ivy refused. Now they are staunch rivals. And while Cheyenne is not as manipulative as Noelle was, she can still be very mean and tends to act like she is superior to everybody else.

3) Meaghan Jette Martin






















































Tell me what you think: Who would be the best Cheyenne Martin?

Cheyenne Martin #2


2) Blake Lively - Serena van der Woodsen 












Cheyenne Martin, The Successor

Cheyenne Martin is a Billings girl largely unmentioned in the first arc of the series, but becomes more important in the second arc of the series. When Noelle, the leader of Billings leaves, Cheyenne soon takes her place, as Kiran and Taylor, two of the most popular girls in Billings, are gone, too. Cheyenne has blonde hair and blue eyes, and wears clothes that match. Sometimes it looks like she tries too hard at making her outfit perfect. She likes the color pink.

When tragedy befalls Cheyenne, Reed becomes the president of Billings.

Several actresses' looks remind me of Cheyenne. Blake Lively and Taylor Momsen from Gossip Girl for example. I also thought of Meaghan Jette Martin. I'll post pictures of all three and let you guys choose who looks the best for the part of Cheyenne.

1) Taylor Momsen - Jenny Humphrey



I actually thought that Leighton Meester as Blair Waldorf would make a good Noelle Lange. She's my second choice for the part.




More characters!

Later on in the series more characters become prominent. Ivy Slade, Cheyenne Martin, Sabine DuLac, Reed's original friend Constance Talbot has a bigger role, too. The Billings girls also have more spotlight in the second arc of the series, as Noelle and her friends leave Easton for reasons you'll just have to read the books to find out!

I'll also get to the boys at Easton, too. Josh Hollis, Thomas Pearson, Dash McCafferty, and Gage Coolidge are the boys constantly in the series (except for Thomas, but Thomas plays an important role in the series). 

I'll start with Ivy Slade. Ivy Slade returns to Easton as a senior in the second arc of the series, when Reed is a junior. She had left Easton the year before. She opposes everything Billings stands for, and hates the Billings girls with a passion. She was invited to join Billings at the end of her sophomore year, but she declined. She is an equal to the Billings girls in beauty and status, though. Ivy becomes Reed's enemy #1, believing that Ivy is determined to ruin her and Billings in the process. She has dark hair and dark eyes. 

I think of Ivy as Elizabeth Gillies as Jade West in Victorious. Like Jade, Ivy is sassy. Even though Elizabeth has blue eyes, I can see Ivy look like her. Both wear a lot of black, both look like rebellious girls who don't fit the norm, etc.

Reed Brennan, The Newbie

Reed Brennan, the protagonist of the series, is a sophomore who has just started attending Easton Academy. She has reddish/brown hair, brown eyes (sometimes reported as blue) and is athletic - she plays both soccer and lacrosse. She is also academically gifted. 

She wants to be friends with the fast-lane, high society Billings girls desperately to escape from her boring background and messed-up family. She's ambitious - she is willing to do various tasks the Billings girls assign her, from bringing them food to stealing an exam. She's somewhat of a follower, but knows where to draw the line. 

I always compare Reed to Lucy Hale. Lucy has the dark hair (even though it's not reddish) an eyes that take on different colors. Reed is obviously attractive if she can get the attention of people like Noelle Lange and Thomas Pearson. 

Here are a few pictures of Lucy: 



Taylor Bell, The Brainiac

In the books, Taylor is described as the sweetest of the bunch. She's a junior, with messy dark blonde curls and blue eyes. She has a cherubic face and although she typically goes along with everything her friends say and do, she is the most sensitive. 

She's a helpful person, having tutored Reed when she was struggling. She's very smart - she completed her semester's work at the beginning of the school year. She claims to have a photographic memory. 

For me, Taylor was the hardest to imagine. I think of her as Chloe Grace Moretz, but Chloe has lighter blonde hair and is similar in appearance to Gabriella Wilde (Ariana, for the books). So, I jumped to Taissa Farmiga from American Horror Story and the Bling Ring. Although Taissa has brown eyes while Taylor's are blue, I think it's a good match. Taissa is really sweet and innocent-looking. What do you think?
