Female Celebrities Behind Cartoon Characters

Mila Kunis often jokes that her voice is more famous than her face, but what a pretty face it is! It's just a shame she's often hidden behind the cantankerous Meg Griffin, the butt of all 'you so ugly' jokes and loner who can't even scrounge a compliment from her own father. But it's really not all that bad. While Mila still collects consistent pay checks in lending her foghorn voice to Meg in Family Guy, she has since proven in Black Swan, Ted and Oz the Great and Powerful that she has what it takes to play both beauty and the beast. Especially in Oz where she kinda does both.

Vanellope may sound like a member of a singing troupe of lederhosen-loving Austrians, but if you've watched Wreck-It Ralph, you'll know her as a racer and token glitch who befriends Ralph. She's cute in a baby Dumbo kind of way, but Vanellope's scrappy charm can only be credited to hilarious hot chick Sarah Silverman. Vanellope later turns into a princess and so ingenuous and benign is Silverman in playing the part of a child-approved underdog that we almost forget about her past indiscretions with Matt Damon. Almost.

Pretty bird Anne Hathaway offers her voice as part of the crowning Jewel in Rio. So maybe she's a blue macaw, but that doesn't mean we can't see past the beak and feathers as she becomes acquainted with Blu. Of course, a real-world hook-up between uber-nerd Jesse Eisenberg and Anne Hathaway would be incredibly unlikely, but in this case their species in endangered, leaving little room for that old 'last person on Earth' rejection to fly. We wonder if they'll still be one big happy family in next year's Rio 2?

Leave it to Angelina Jolie to voice the part of a predatorial kitty like Tigress in Kung Fu Panda. The actress, who already has a tattoo of tiger claw marks on her back, played the animated ass-kicker in both Kung Fu Panda installments, though if you ask us, she was really just playing herself in 'toon form. Hostile, icy and shrewd, Tigress' manners and boyish attire are a far cry from Joile's usual glamourpuss persona, but as Ange told the Associated Press, 'I am getting goofier as I get older... It was an interesting voice to play with but it wasn't intended to sound a certain way, it just came out that way I think, because she is so repressed.'

Shrek's missus, Princess Fiona, is often described as a bit of an ogre in the looks department. This depiction hasn't really been helped by the fact that she is an ogre, but regardless on what's happening on the outside, regulation hottie Cameron Diaz has always been quick to defend her onscreen animation. 'It's amazing when I go into interviews. It's shocking to me that that's the perception, just because she's big and round. I think she's lovely. Her body is everything that she is inside. I love that she is the princess who isn't like all the other princesses. She doesn't look like them, and she's just as beloved and accepted,' Cameron told the Associated Press while promoting the third installment in the never-ending Shrek franchise.

While the animated feature Astro Boy wasn't a huge box office hit (we heard it did well in China), the revamped manga of the future did have one thing going for it: Kristen Bell as the voice of Cora, the feisty tomboy leader of a group of orphans. With a hard exterior and plenty of opinions, Cora acts as Astro Boy's love interest, though she's far cooler and more resourceful than the robotic Pinocchio will ever be. But is that any surprise given Bell's unwavering geek appeal? She even made Hermione seem likeable in Robot Chicken.

Appearing as more parkour than pinup, Eep Crood (of The Croods) isn't your average heroine, or love interest for that matter. She can swing her caveboy sweetheart over her shoulders, scale mountains with her fingertips and tear apart raw meat with her teeth. While we love a gal that can eat, Eep's Neanderthal traits and sloped forehead don't quite put her in the same league as the gravelly voice behind her growl, Emma Stone. On voicing the part, Stone told The Independent, 'She is so feisty, and she forges her own path. Also, though it's not my natural colour, I am a great supporter of redheads as you may know. I would probably be red right now myself if it weren't for having to go off and film Spider-Man again.'
