Bridgette was a camper in Total Drama Island as a member of the Killer Bass. She later returned as a castmate in Total Drama Action but was not placed on a team due to her early elimination with Geoff. She also qualified for Total Drama World Tour as a member of Team Victory. She is a co-host of the Total Drama Aftermath. She was seen with the original contestants on a yacht in the first episode in Total Drama: Revenge of the Island and had a cameo appearance in Backstabbers Ahoy!.
Personality[]
Bridgette is a calm, compassionate surfer girl who loves animals as much as she loves the water. She is a vegetarian, finding animals to be her friends, not food. In contrast to her aquatic aptitude, Bridgette is known for being very clumsy on land, which often leads to severe results. Many aspects of Bridgette's character are revealed in Brunch of Disgustingness, when she refuses to give up her principles, no matter what. When she joins the remaining Screaming Gophers females, she faces one of her biggest challenges in getting them to work as a team. She believes in "building bridges, not walls", even when the competition is not a factor. Through Bridgette's spirit and determination, she always reaches her goal, whether it is getting her team to unite or anything else she sets her mind to.
Bridgette commonly shows disapproval for unnecessary violence and conflict, as seen when she was reluctant to shoot paintballs in Paintball Deer Hunter and disapproved of DJ, Duncan, and Geoff pranking Harold. According to Bridgette herself, she cannot stay mad at someone for very long, at most holding a "six-minute" grudge. In the Aftermath, she is shown to value her friendships with the other contestants as ego-driven Geoff tortures the eliminated cast members becoming somewhat of a "Chris Clone". Most notably, even when she is angry with Gwen for her actions, she still warns her about an anvil that will fall on her if she lies.
Total Drama Island[]
Bridgette is the eleventh contestant to arrive on the island in Not So Happy Campers—Part 1. She introduces herself to the campers and says hello to Beth and Geoff. However, her clumsiness is immediately apparent when she accidentally hits Chris' head with her surfboard and almost does the same to Duncan, Harold and Trent when she turns around. She is placed on the Killer Bass. In Not So Happy Campers—Part 2, Bridgette is the first person to jump off the cliff and land in the safe zone. On the way back to camp, Katie and Sadie suddenly feel itchy, which Bridgette suggests is from the poison ivy they were squatting in. While building the hot tub, her clumsiness is shown again when she hits Harold twice with the plank. After the Bass lose, she and Eva are offended when Ezekiel makes his sexist remarks about women. Because of this, she is assumed to have voted for Ezekiel along with the other girls characters on her team.
Bridgette does poorly in The Big Sleep, being the second person to fall asleep. She barely participates in the dodgeball challenge and is shown getting hit and eliminated from the round.
In Not Quite Famous, she makes a bet with the guys that she can stand on her hands for twenty minutes, but accidentally destroys Courtney's violin before the talent show starts and has to perform to replace Courtney. However, her stomach gets upset from eating a lot of chips before the show, and she ends up vomiting on the audience during her performance. Because of her poor performance, which almost causes her team to lose, Bridgette predicts that she might be the one to be eliminated had it not been for Harold's amazing performance that saved the team from elimination.
In The Sucky Outdoors, Geoff tries to compliment Bridgette by saying that she "pitches a tent like a guy". He sees that it doesn't have the desired effect and tries to correct himself, only to say that what he means is that she's not "afraid to get dirty like a girl". She then sarcastically thanks him. Later that night, she accidentally burns her team's tent after being frightened by a bat.
In Phobia Factor, Bridgette tried to calm Sadie down and told Courtney that it was a long goodbye. Bridgette is unable to face her fear of being alone in the woods after being frightened by a garbage-covered Cody.
Throughout the season, Bridgette spends a lot of time with Geoff, and the two develop feelings for each other over time. However, he often gets nervous around her and is unable to give her a proper compliment without upsetting her. In Up the Creek, Bridgette confides in her friend Courtney about the cheesy gift Geoff made for her that she didn't like. However, by the end of the episode, she changes her mind about Geoff's gift and decides to keep it even though it is broken. The two are partners in several more challenges that straddle the line between work and flirtation.
Aside from her teammates, Bridgette is also particularly close with Screaming Gophers members, Gwen and Leshawna, where they are seen hanging out in Basic Straining. It appears that she and Gwen are already friends for some time, as a flashback shows them hanging out together. In X-Treme Torture, Gwen and Bridgette found a haiku addressed to "the girl with smoldering eyes." Believing that their respective love interests wrote it for them, the two girls begin to argue, trading insults about the others' love-interest and bet two nights dessert on who the poem was written for. When Bridgette asks Geoff about the haiku, the latter doesn't know what a haiku is. Gwen also admits defeat after seeing how dense Trent is when she ask him about it. In the end, the girls make amends after their dispute and hug each other, vowing to work together to figure out who really wrote the poem. Gwen and Bridgette thought that the only reasonable contenders would be DJ or Owen but not Harold due to being "Harold" and Duncan having a big crush on Courtney. However, they find out that neither DJ or Owen are the ones to write it. In fact, at that night, the girls are shocked to find out that the haiku was written by Harold to show his affection to Leshawna. With the whole incident solved, Gwen and Bridgette bid each other good night before returning to their respective cabins.
When the teams are slowly dwindling down, the teams are separated into boys and girls in Brunch of Disgustingness and Bridgette has to shift to the Screaming Gophers cabin. She is immediately caught in the conflict between Heather and Leshawna. Heather sees Bridgette as a potential alliance member and coaxes her into joining her, going as far as to compliment her hair and even offers her access to her makeup box. Though she is determined to unify the girls in order to beat the guys, she ultimately sided with Gwen and Leshawna. Her decision angers Heather, leading to a bitter rivalry between the two. Bridgette struggles during the eating challenge as the first dish consist of "meatballs" which she had problems eating due to her being a vegetarian until Geoff pep-talked her into eating them. In the following dishes, Bridgette serves as an advisor and cheerleader for the other girls throughout the challenge, giving advice to Lindsay on how to eat some of the disgusting food. Although she manages to continue with the challenge, she refuses to eat the final dish which is dolphin wieners and the girls eventually lost in a tie-breaker.
When Eva makes an unexpected return in No Pain, No Game, Bridgette becomes the main target of Eva's rage as Eva blames Bridgette for voting her off in The Big Sleep. Their conflict intensifies throughout the episode, but in the end, Eva is ultimately voted off.
In Hide and Be Sneaky, Bridgette attempts to hide from Chef Hatchet but ends up getting her leg entangled in some lanterns. This attracts a family of skunks which sprayed her with their odor. Her screams attract Chef's attention, which she promptly begs him to spray her with his water gun. Despite this, her stench still remains. After the challenge ended, Bridgette and the rest of the girls discuss the recently formed Guys' alliance and suggest that they should vote off Duncan due to his mean demeanor, with only Gwen and Leshawna siding with her. Meanwhile, the guys target Bridgette as they find Bridgette's popularity and athleticism a threat. Because the girls could not unanimously decide which guy to eliminate, Bridgette is voted off that night. Before she leaves, Geoff tells her that he did not, in fact, vote her off. Bridgette believes him and goes over to kiss him, but her lingering stench sends him away quickly, leaving her disappointed.
In Haute Camp-ture, a recently reunited Geoff and Bridgette are now officially a couple, and constantly seen making out in the Jacuzzi throughout the episode. At one point, Bridgette notices Ezekiel attempting to get closer to her but eventually backs off when she punches him on the head. In the finale, Bridgette initially supports Gwen, but she switches over to Owen's side after he promises everyone a large yacht party.
In Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island, Geoff and Bridgette continue to spend their time making out throughout the episode, even after Chris announces about the extra challenge. At one point, the two of them were underneath the briefcase but fail to notices it as they are too busy making out. Bridgette's clumsiness is shown again when she accidentally injures Geoff's eye and later knocks him down the cliff. As they continue on with the challenge, they are chased by a mother moose after accidentally harming its child, with Katie and Sadie getting chased as well. They manage to find a sanctuary at the top of the diving board where the other campers gather as well. After the board topples, Bridgette is one of a few campers to remain on the board, where it slides off the tub at an angle and remains in motion, taking Bridgette and the others straight to the dock and into the water. Being in the water after the case was swallowed by a shark, she qualifies to compete for the prize again in the next season.
Total Drama Action[]
Bridgette arrives on the set of Total Drama Action in Monster Cash, and quickly failed the Monster challenge with Geoff. Bridgette admits in the confessional that her relationship with Geoff is a distraction and becomes determined to win the prize. However, she quickly loses her focus in the game as she and Geoff kiss in the confessional seconds later.
In Alien Resurr-eggtion, Bridgette and Geoff are discovered by Beth to the group in the Alien studio. They are the first people eliminated from the challenge when they are shot by Chef, as she is too late to notify Geoff of Chef's appearance. Bridgette's and Geoff’s attachment quickly annoys their fellow contestants, leading to both of them being the first cast members eliminated from the show. Despite that, Bridgette and Geoff don't mind as they are more interested in each other even as they go down the Walk of Shame and into the Lame-o-sine together. In a small clip after the episode, Geoff talks about how money doesn't bring happiness but his mom's mac and cheese do. When Bridgette hears that, she states that what he just said was ridiculous, so they break up for a few seconds, before apologizing.
Due to being the first eliminated from the season, Bridgette and Geoff are rewarded by hosting the Total Drama Action Aftermath, where they interview recently eliminated contestants from Total Drama Action and non-participants and review e-mails and videos from the season so far. However, their time as co-hosts on the Aftermath show has caused a few strains on their relationship. The strain begins in The Aftermath: I, when Geoff calls Heather the hottest girl on the show, making Bridgette furious. The two apologize to each other as the show comes to a close. Then in the second aftermath, Bridgette and Geoff's relationship starts taking a turn for the worse as Geoff starts acting like an egomaniac, strongly implying that he cares more about his own personal fame and the show's ratings than his friends. His vanity is directed towards her, leading to Bridgette physically attacking Geoff for insulting her weight. Bridgette writes a fake letter under the name "Gidget123" to Gwen about how her boyfriend was being so mean, and grabs Geoff by the ear to talk about his behavior at the end of the episode.
In The Aftermath: III, Bridgette, who has had it with Geoff's new pretentious and rude personality, says that she is breaking up with him. He is initially crushed and tries to talk to Bridgette, but she ignores him and talks to him through Owen. She gets Heather, Leshawna and Owen to help her get Geoff into the electric chair (used in "Truth or Electrocution"). Geoff lies when Bridgette asks him about his new personality and when Owen asks him how he truly feels about Bridgette. She decides to give him another chance as long as he goes back to his original self and also because she realized that he still loves her, which leads to them making out in the chair. Owen leans on a button, causing the chair to emit an electric shock with Bridgette and Geoff still on it. In the final aftermath, Bridgette and Geoff are about to host the show and tries to find a way to deem the winner of the season, but Chris soon returns and takes over the show from then on. During that time, Bridgette and Geoff went into Chris' viewing room to have another session of making out and completely forgetting to vote for the winner.
In Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special, it is shown that the Aftermath shows gave them a lot of press as Bridgette gets slightly jealous of Geoff's popularity with the public. At one scene in an airport, she whacks him with a surfboard for staring at a girl. They eventually forgive each other and make-up at a press conference when Geoff admits his eyes shouldn't have left her and she also claims that she should trust him. Like the other contestants, Bridgette is worried about not getting an award and goes with them on the bus in order to stop the "Total Drama Dirtbags" cast from getting to New York. While some members go to find help, Bridgette stays behind with the others (and Sierra) to work on her tan. After Chris rescues them, it is announced that she is in the show, but Geoff is not, leading to a confessional where she states her disappointment of Geoff not being able to compete and promises to win the show for the both of them. She then sobs.
Total Drama World Tour[]
Upon stepping out of the bus, Bridgette is immediately smitten over the newcomer, Alejandro, and becomes one of his admirers. Throughout Walk Like An Egyptian – Part 1, he often flirts with her and Lindsay, even singing Come Fly With Us with them. However, Bridgette keeps reminding him and herself that she already has a boyfriend. Once the plane reaches Egypt, Bridgette and Lindsay team up with Alejandro, who offers to carry them up to the top of the pyramid. Once there, Bridgette uses the sign as a surfboard and all three ride it to the finish line. Bridgette's team crosses the finish line second, and she is put on Team Victory with DJ, Ezekiel, Harold, Leshawna, and Lindsay.
For a large portion of the season, Bridgette's team ironically performs very poorly, despite their name. All the while, she continues being smitten by Alejandro's charms and has to keep reminding herself that she already has a boyfriend. In Super Happy Crazy Fun Time Japan, Bridgette dislikes Harold's idea for the second challenge, and gets annoyed when he keeps demanding that he's to be addressed as "sensei". She is also irritated by DJ (believing that he is cursed), who is unable to say his line during the advertisement. Team Victory ends up losing again, where Harold quits the competition and is eliminated.
By Anything Yukon Do, I Can Do Better, Bridgette realizes that she has indeed fallen in love with Alejandro, but continues her attempts to restrain herself as she already has a boyfriend. In the confessional, Bridgette mentions that the reason she was never attracted to any guys before meeting Alejandro is that she was always making out with Geoff, and never had a chance to look at other guys. However, since Geoff is absent, she can’t stop herself from falling for good looking boys like Alejandro. When the contestants are hugging each other for warmth, Noah unexpectedly hugs her but she pushes him aside. She then noticed Alejandro flirtatiously smiling at her and she responded the same way. Once the challenge begins, Bridgette is helped by Alejandro to cross the water despite them being on different teams. At one point, he fails to catch her and she trips over him, accidentally kissing him in the lips. Bridgette immediately apologizes to which Alejandro states that it is just an accident. At this point, Bridgette seems to forgotten about Geoff, stating that she “kinda has a boyfriend" to which Alejandro pointed out. In the confessional, Bridgette tries to deny any feelings she had for Alejandro to no avail.
Once they reach the other side of the river, Alejandro gives her his shirt to keep her warm as they walk towards the nearest checkpoint. When Team Chris Is Really Really Really Really Hot arrives, Alejandro proposes they share one more “accident” before he leaves to which Bridgette agrees. As they about to lean in for another kiss, Alejandro steps back at the last minute, causing Bridgette’s tongue to get stuck on a pole. Chris arrives and teases her and even forces her to sing a song with Team Amazon as her back up. Bridgette pleads to Chris to help her but Chris only gives her his bottle after finishing it. Because of this, her team loses for the third time in a row despite reaching the finish line first, resulting in her elimination. Before she takes the Drop of Shame, she tries to warn her team about Alejandro’s true colors but nobody is able to understand her as her tongue is still stuck to the pole and Chris quickly pushes her out of the plane. A deleted scene shows Bridgette failing to put on her parachute after she opened it before putting it on because of the pole. As she is free-falling, she criticizes herself for falling for Alejandro’s trick and worried that Geoff will be mad at her. Fortunately, Bridgette lands safely on a giant cake in Russia (that Owen mentioned earlier), cheerfully commenting on the cake's taste after landing on it, and the pole removed from her tongue.
Bridgette appears as a guest in Aftermath: Bridgette Over Troubled Water, where she at first refuses to come out and be interviewed, as she is embarrassed about what had happened on the show. At the same time, Geoff refuses to acknowledge her presence as a guest and tries to prolong the show, by introducing Harold first as well as prolonging other segments of the show. Eventually, former Celebrity Manhunt co-host, Blaineley silences him and quickly introduces Bridgette but she refuses to leave the green room. Beth attempts to coax her out, only to exit with a bag over her head. After some encouragement from Beth, Bridgette agrees to come up on stage, singing I'm Sorry to Geoff, who still doesn't accept her apology. Things get even more complicated when a video guest asks her to kiss a pole, which turns the situation into a tense argument. Blaineley, who was hoping to get them into a fight, propose the estranged couple to duel it out via a segment called “Total Drama Smackdown.” Just before they fight, Geoff decides to forgive Bridgette and started making out much to the audience and ex-contestants’ excitement while Blaineley begins to throw a tantrum when she realizes that her plan fails.
With her time on the show over, Bridgette resumes her role as co-host of the aftermath, in order to raise funds to re-fuel the Total Drama Jumbo Jet that had run out of fuel and became stranded in Jamaica in the previous episode. They are helped by the Peanut Gallery who is in charge of answering calls and Blaineley, despite claiming that she quits in the previous aftermath. The couple started out by singing Save This Show to entice viewers to donate, but fail to achieve anything. After a while, they manage to raise a significant amount of money. Unfortunately, one of Blaineley's plans backfired and now they have to raise $1,000,000 to cover damage expenses. It is here that Bridgette introduces a fellow victim of Alejandro’s dirty work and her good friend, Leshawna. Together with Harold as backup dancers while Leshawna sings Sisters, they manage to raise another $100, 000, which is still far from their goal. Their last guest, Izzy, however, is able to save the day after transforming from her genius self (as a result of her injuries in the previous episode) to her usual crazy self at the last minute and successfully reach their goal of raising $1,000,000 after “defusing” a bomb with a hammer. Though their telethon is a success, the studio is a wreck as a result of the explosion with everyone getting injured while Bridgette is left temporarily deaf.
Bridgette’s role of aftermath co-host is filled by Blaineley in Aftermath Aftermayhem, who reveals that she sent Bridgette away (against her will) as a roving reporter, in her own place. A video feed shows that she is currently at Siberia at the time, trying to avoid Blaineley's angry fans. Moments later, she was approached by a bear who destroyed the camera. Near the end of the show, Bridgette is seen nursing the bear (whom she named Bruno) and reveals that she will not be back until it is fully recovered, disappointing Geoff.
In Hawaiian Style, Bridgette finally returns to host the show, arriving at Hawaii with Bruno via surfing. Throughout the episode, every time Bridgette and Geoff get too close, her new pet becomes extremely possessive and attacks Geoff. Despite her mistreatment towards her, Bridgette is shown to be worried of Blaineley after she was injured during her time on the show. Bridgette does not hold back when expressing her displeasure about Alejandro being in the final three. When the ex-contestants divided themselves into who they are supporting for the finale, Bridgette is the only one that feels sorry for Blaineley being the only supporter for Heather and transfers Owen, Justin, Leshawna and Eva to Team Heather, much to their displeasure since all four of them hated Heather. After the challenge, Bridgette expresses disappointment that Courtney is able to win the challenge and gives Alejandro an advantage in the finale. At the end of the episode, Bruno is able to find a new chew toy, allowing Bridgette to finally be reunited with her boyfriend.
Along with Geoff and the Peanut Gallery, she is seen waiting for the final three at the beach by the end of Planes, Trains, and Hot Air Mobiles, looking visibly upset when Heather arrives first. Though it is unknown who she supported, it is safe to assume she chose Heather over Alejandro in the finale, due to her bigger hatred for the latter. When Heather won in her ending, Bridgette cheers for her. Soon after, due to Chris's ignorance of the natives' warning and Ezekiel’s actions, Bridgette and the rest of the contestants quickly leave the island before it was covered in lava. Once they reach the water, they laughed at Chris and Chef's misfortune before swimming away as flaming rocks start to fall.
Total Drama: Revenge of the Island[]
In Bigger! Badder! Brutal-er!, Bridgette appears on the yacht with the other veterans. She and Geoff are dancing together at the stern of the yacht while she watches the still injured Alejandro carrying Heather.
Bridgette appears in Backstabbers Ahoy!, where she arrives at the island alongside Dakota via canoe, wearing her swimsuit. Due to her contract, she has to demonstrate the challenge alongside Dakota, which she is noticeably very angry about. Their canoe is attacked shortly afterward by the mutant shark Fang, causing Dakota to cling to Bridgette in terror. They both then have to demonstrate to the remaining contestants how to set off one of the mines. When they do, Bridgette is sent flying by the explosion and lands on the Dock of Shame in a charred heap next to Chris who shows little care of her injuries.
Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race[]
Bridgette is mentioned in None Down, Eighteen to Go—Part 1 by Geoff when he and Brody are introduced. She was supposed to be his partner for the race, but as she is in Australia for a surfing competition, Geoff replaced her with his old friend, Brody instead. She is also mentioned by Geoff in Maori or Less and Got Venom.

Appearances[]
Audition tape[]
- View this video for Bridgette's audition tape.
In her audition tape, Bridgette is standing on a beach in her wetsuit, beside a van that has a pair of surfboards leaned against it, possibly meaning that she not only came to this beach to film her audition tape but also to surf since her hair is not yet wet. Her friend then says "We're on, Bridge!" and to the cheers of her friends, which are mostly boys, Bridgette starts whistling "Yankee Doodle" through her nose. Bridgette then laughs to herself and admits that she knows she sucks, but goes on to say that she's a real friend and an honest player. She adds that if they pick her, she promises to either win with integrity or leave with her head held high.
Camp TV[]
In Camp TV, Bridgette's design differs significantly from her current look. She has her hair braided back along with a headband in it, freckles on her face, earrings, and wears ripped daisy dukes. Her eyes are very wide in her original design, instead of the usually relaxed eyes she currently has. She also seems to have a necklace. Little else is known about her, since she was not featured in the promo, except for when the others' feet were shown in the shower stalls in the Camp TV promo. However, some of her original designs, such as the wide eyes and freckles on the face, resembles Courtney's current design.
