Movie princesses in "Enchanted"

Judy Kuhn and Paige O’Hara both had brief roles in Disney’s neo-classic movie, Enchanted. You may remember them from the exquisite vocals that they provided for Pocahontas and Belle, respectively. Disney's Ariel, Jodi Benson, had a longer and more significant role, possibly due to her closer association with the mighty mouse factory. These were all in-jokes (Easter eggs?) that they producers provided for astute viewers to pick up. Her character, the eponymous lead, was a princess of sorts, so I guess that’s kinda appropriate.

It would have been great if they could have gotten Lea Salonga, Linda Larkin, or Susan Egan to appear as well. Still, this was a real treat.
