Lindsay

Lindsay, labeled "The Dumb Princess", is a camper from Total Drama Island on the Screaming Gophers team.

Biography
She is considered the prettiest girl on the show, but Mother Nature made her as sharp as a frosted cupcake. She enjoys looking at herself in the mirror, trying on new outfits and hanging out with boys. She tries her best at the challenges and actually makes it far into the competition despite her naivety and sheep-like mentality, but she is lacking in physical endurance. She is afraid of bugs or anything that crawls. Although she can be a little self-absorbed, she tries to be a friend to everyone (even ugly girls, she claims, which is evident in her close friendship with Beth), even her enemies, though she's often unaware of their animosity. She is actually very athletic. She is MVP for her school's gymnastics team which makes her flexible and quick.

She has a crush on Tyler, who also likes her back starting in Not So Happy Campers - Part 1. Their relationship quickly progressed to the point where they were making out by the fifth episode; much more quickly than any other relationship on the show. They hid their relationship from Heather and Courtney, both whom saw the relationship as a threat to their respective teams, though Heather was the only one who took action and actually injured Tyler multiple times for being near her alliance mate.

Lindsay is also a member of Heather's alliance and considers her a BFFL (Best Female Friend For Life), though Heather never felt the same way. She is somewhat scared of Heather, but shows some independence from her when she helped lock her in the fridge in If You Can't Take the Heat (she even admitted in the Confessional stall that she would like to kick her off the island that episode). Heather threatened that she would cut off Lindsay's hair while she was sleeping if she betrayed her again (which backfires much later on when this fate befalls Heather on behalf of Lindsay in I Triple Dog Dare You!, resulting in Heather getting kicked out of the competition). This is because Heather betrayed Lindsay earlier in That's Off The Chain! when she convinced her to finish the race last and didn't share invincibility with her, resulting in automatic elimination from the contest for Lindsay. Finally realizing what a conniving, manipulative person Heather was, Lindsay snapped. She flipped off Heather and insulted her with a stream of obscenities (or PG-level insults, depending on what version of the show you watch). At the Dock of Shame, she befriends with LeShawna, Owen, and Gwen, saying she will miss Owen the most.

Despite the disappointing way she was eliminated, she grew to love Playa Des Losers and even said if she knew of the place beforehand, she would have tried to get eliminated in the first episode. She was also able to reunite with Tyler, though she suddenly forgot which camper Tyler was. She believed Gwen should have won the contest and was on her side in The Very Last Episode, Really!, but sold out and switched sides when Owen said he would use his money to throw a party for everyone on a yacht.

In Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island!, she teams up with Beth and Ezekiel to find the case containing 1 million dollars. She has not forgotten what Heather has done to her in the past, rejecting her when she offers to be on her team, and even getting her name wrong (the irony being that Heather is one of the few campers whom Lindsay always names correctly). Because of her oblivious nature, she almost passes by the case without noticing at least twice. However, she (as well as Beth and Heather) qualified to compete in Total Drama Action. Unlike most, she seems to be excited about the prospect and aspires to win the money so she can buy France and become its queen.

Fan Reception
Lindsay is popular for many reasons; being good looking, lacking in intelligence but making up for it by having good-hearted intentions, being wound up in several humorous mishaps (Hide and Be Sneaky, for example), and being the one to snap and go ballistic on Heather on national TV.

Audition tape
In her audition tape, Lindsay mentions all her good traits, says she has a bikini for every season (even those not on the calendar), gets along with everyone (even ugly girls), and is self-considered "bi-languagal" (meaning to say bilingual). She says she speaks fluent English and American, being unaware that the languages are the same.

Trivia



 * She will be returning as a competitor on Total Drama Action.
 * Lindsay has a similar appearance to Caitlin in 6teen.
 * There is only one episode Lindsay does not appear in, or is mentioned in, and that one is Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
 * Lindsay and Heather actually have similar hair designs, they both have long highlights in their hair. They may have been designed this way so that they would make better partners, or in Heather's case, a master and minion.
 * Though her eyebrows were a dead giveaway from the beginning, the TDI special confirms that Lindsay is not a natural blond.
 * She and Owen are the only campers to curse at another camper.
 * She has the largest breasts on the show.
 * Irony shows that she appeared in the bottom two twice, yet she left the island without a ceremony.
 * Lindsay's current design does not greatly differ from her CAMP TV design. Outside of the obvious change of art style, CAMP TV's Lindsay's bandanna has white polka dots, she has sandals instead of boots, her hair is slightly shorter, and her underwear is showing.
 * in Total Drama Action, she and Beth might take Katie and Sadie's role as BFFFLs, as during the trailer for it, they are seen gleefully bouncing up and down.
 * She has a problem with remembering names, as evident throughout the series. Even if the person was a close friend of Lindsay, more often than not she would get their name wrong, sometimes more than once.
 * Chris McLean: At first she could not remember his name at all, but later called him Chip in No Pain, No Game. Gwen: Called her Greta in That's Off The Chain!, but has called her by her proper name in the past (Not Quite Famous), as well as after this episode (Haut Camp-ture). Trent: Called him Todd in Who Can You Trust?, despite getting his name right in at least one episode prior to this one (namely Up The Creek). Heather: Called her Hannah in Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island!, but this may have been on purpose. Beth: Called her Belle in Paintball Deer Hunter. LeShawna: Lindsay had two names for her; the more commonly-used Lequesha, as well as LaFonda in Haut Camp-ture. Eva: Lindsay may have simply mispronounced her name as "Ava", as that is a commonly-accepted pronunciation of the name; just not in this particular Eva's case. She called her this in No Pain, No Game. ("Anyways, I vote off Ava because she's scarier than Heather, Lequisha, and Gwen combined.")She has correctly pronounced Eva's name before, particularly in The Big Sleep. Duncan: Called him Doug in X-Treme Torture. Tyler: Called him Taylor at the end of Phobia Factor, but quickly corrected herself.
