Dakota

Dakota, labeled The Fame-Monger, is a camper in Total Drama: Revenge of the Island.

Total Drama: Revenge of the Island
Dakota first appears in Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er! on a boat with the other twelve contestants. When Chris introduces her, she begins to talk, but is cut off when Chris introduces Anne Maria. This annoys her, and she shoves her out of the camera's view. Anne Maria angrily sprays her face with spray tan. After Chris blows up the boat, Dakota is seen in a lifeboat being photographed by paparazzi. She playfully asks how they found her, only for them to reply that she texted them the location. This annoys Chris who assigns Chef to blow up the paparazzi boat. Dakota is later placed on the Toxic Rats team after finishing the race in tenth place. When Anne Maria arrives after her, Dakota waves to her, which causes Anne Maria to glare back at her. When a mutated squirrel appears in front of the teams, she kneels down to it, saying she wants one. However, when the squirrel roars and shoots electricity out of its eyes, she screams and runs away. In the first challenge of the season, Dakota saws down the Rats' totem using a saw despite not knowing how to use it until Dawn tells her to pretend its "Daddy's steak knife". Although the Toxic Rats arrived first, her team loses the challenge after their selected cabin explodes and she, along with the others, end up annoyed with Staci's chatter. Dakota ends up in the bottom two in the first Campfire Ceremony of the new season, but ends up safe and recieves the final marshmallow after Staci receives the Marshmallow of Toxic Loserdom.

Total Drama Reloaded
In her original design, Dakota's initial body shape was the same, but her overall look was drastically changed. She originally had red hair with a flower in it, and her hair was only about shoulder length. She had long, tan-colored jeans and a purple shirt. Her skin was also paler. She lacked the sunglasses that she currently wears. Her original design was instead recycled into the current design for Zoey, with some minor changes. Since then, her shoulder length red hair is changed to long blonde hair, her purple top was changed to a pink top, her long tanned pants were changed to a hotpink color, her shoes are currently pink and her skin is now tan.

Audition tape
Dakota greets viewers by telling them hello and her name. She then states that she will one day be a reality show mega-star, fashion model, and award-winning movie actress. She then adds that she may also be a pop music star, if she has the time. Then, she tells the viewer that they may want to preserve her audition for prosperity. The last thing she says is that when she is done on Total Drama: Revenge of the Island, she will be the "biggest thing ever," ending the audition.
