If there’s one TV character that all millennial women can relate to it’s Brooke Davis from One Tree Hill. Portrayed by Sophia Bush, Brooke represents an ambitious woman trying to overcome many obstacles to achieve her goals. It might have taken her a while, but she eventually got there. Currently, a lot of young women are going through the same experiences. Hence, this character is so relatable. Plus, the character shares a lot of similar personality traits we all have. Here’s proof that Brooke Davis will always be an underrated female Millennial role model:
She radiates self-confidence
Because if no one else is going to recognize you, you might as well acknowledge yourself.
She gets easily excited about everything
And celebrates everyone’s accomplishments.
She’s extremely cute and sassy
Even in moments when she shouldn’t be.
She can be quite the flirt
Or at least when she’s feeling good about herself.
Thus, she is all about girl power
Moreover, she even named a clothing line after her motto.
She’s doubted herself because of other people
But always tried to be the best version she could’ve been for undeserving people.
She’s been hurt badly by the people closest to her
And lied to. And cheated on. All by her two best friends. Ouch.
But her kind heart always gives people another chance
Even if they don’t deserve it.
Then, alcohol is one of her favorite things
Especially wine.
Sometimes, she can have quite the temper
Furthermore, it comes out in the funniest of ways.
She has one main friend who keeps her sane
Because having too many is an even bigger problem.
She loves sex
Like, really loves sex.
Coffee is mandatory for her survival
And mornings are never her thing.
She strongly believes in positive body image
Moreover, she leads by example with her beliefs.
She’s been lonely from time to time
Because who hasn’t when their friends are all living life and you feel left out?
She is fiercely passionate about her friends and family
And doesn’t let anyone mess with them until they go through her first.
She is vocal about her feelings
Even if it means being brutally honest or vulnerable.
She always treated herself like a gift
Because any guy who had been with her had to know how lucky he was.
She knows what she deserves
So she’ll always vocalize it.
She’s walked away from things knowing they won’t benefit her
Even if it breaks her heart.
Her comebacks aren’t always the greatest
But whose are, really?
Her face says it all
Because we all forget that people can actually see the facial expressions we make.
Moreover, her temper is fiery
Especially after some motivation.
She protects her feelings
Because the past damaged her past a point she thought she could not repair.
One boy always had her heart
And she wanted him more than anyone will ever know.
She continues to grow from who she used to be
And she doesn’t let the former labels define her.
But she’s the first to prove people wrong
And her actions always speak louder than her words.
She knew exactly how to put boys in their place
Moreover, she did it with a cunning smile on her face.
She’ll never let you forget when you did her wrong
Likewise, she is far from subtle about it.
She just wants to be loved
Because who doesn’t?
And she has understood the struggle of feeling like your life isn’t going anywhere
Even though she was bound for greatness.
But she trusted her journey
Because she knew everything was going to be alright.
She’s just an all-around great girl
Thus, we should all strive to be a little bit more like her.
Moreover, she lives her life unapologetically
Hence, that’s exactly how we should live.
Overall, Brooke Davis is one badass woman who accurately represents the normal girl (even though she grew up rich and spoiled for a good part of her life). She makes money moves, helps her friends achieve their dreams, and doesn’t stop fighting until she’s satisfied. Even if she’s balancing all of this while coping with heartbreak.
We may not have many role models on our television screens, but Brooke Davis will forever be one in our minds.
