Cindy Vortex
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cynthia "Cindy" Aurora Vortex (voiced by Carolyn Lawrence) is a fictional character on the TV series The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius and movie Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. As confirmed by one of the show's directors, Keith Alcorn, this witty, sharp-tongued, tae-kwon-do expert, river-stomping dancer is James Isaac ("Jimmy") Neutron's aggressive arch rival and secret crush. She keeps her feelings for Jimmy in check and in secret from everyone, even her best friend, Libby Folfax.
Cindy's birthday is June 5.
Cindy has, indeed, shown obvious but reluctant friendship with "Nerd-tron" (as she calls him), but seeks more. However, in the first season she had a crush on Nick Dean. The second season, nicknamed "The Relationship Season," most of these episodes reveal Jimmy and Cindy's blossoming relationship, including kind of admitting their true feelings while stranded in an uncharted island, in the thirty minute episode, Stranded. During the hour long special The League of Villains, Cindy makes several attempts to confess her love to Jimmy; only to be interrupted (by someone or something) or inadvertently be ignored by Jimmy, at every attempt. Season three is rich with what Jimmy and Cindy fans refer to as J/C moments.
Cindy moved to Retroville in her early elementary years. She found herself the most respected and most intelligent person in class, a position she very much enjoyed. Her superiority was marred when Jimmy came along. James Isaac "Jimmy" Neutron, who lived across the street from her, eventually took Cindy's place as the smartest person in class. This enraged her very much, and has since then been trying to overthrow Jimmy from his status as smartest. She does this by teasing him and his friends, Carl and Sheen, mercilessly, playing pranks on him, nit-picking at his every mistake, helped by best friend Libby.
Cindy also knows when things are going too far. There have been times when she admits that Jimmy can do some cool things and have cool adventures. During season three, as she starts to come to terms with her feelings for Jimmy, she mellows out; slowly dropping their rivalry, picking on Jimmy and his friends less and less, and by making several attempts to get Jimmy to notice her.
In the crossover with The Fairly OddParents, Jimmy Timmy Power Hour, Cindy develops a small crush on Timmy Turner who everyone else thinks is Jimmy with a smaller head. In the second crossover special, Jimmy starts to get jealous. However her feelings for Timmy, while more open, definitely aren't as strong as her love for Jimmy. In the third crossover, Jimmy and Timmy both ignored her.
[edit] Trivia
- Cindy – unlike Jimmy – has a real dog named Humphrey.
- In the episode I Dream of Jimmy (a spoof of I Dream of Jeannie) while being trapped in Carl's fantasy land mind, Jimmy kisses Cindy, but only to wake up Carl. Cindy comes over furious to Neutron's house to give him a right cross and proclaims "Not even in His dreams, Neutron". This shows that she somehow found out, although it was for comedic reason
- Cindy at one time, had a hint of sadism in the episode, Birth of a Salesman where she tried to buy Jimmy for unknown reasons (possibly enslavement.)
- Cindy was originally going to be named Sally Proton.
- In the episode Trading Faces (A spoof of Trading Places) Jimmy's mind-reading invention causes Jimmy and Cindy to switch bodies. When the process is reversed, Cindy speaks of one them thinking about the two of them walking in the park and holding hands, but Jimmy denies being the originator of that fantasy.
- Carolyn Lawrence, the voice actor who voices Cindy, also voices Sandy Cheeks on the TV show SpongeBob SquarePants. Both Cindy and Sandy are the smartest of their towns' females and practice martial arts, but Cindy practices tae-kwon-do, while Sandy practices karate; they are both geniuses.
- Cindy's blood type is A positive.
- Cindy is afraid of mimes.
- Cindy flirts with boys alot, these boys include Jimmy Neutron, Timmy Turner, Chester McBadbat, and A.J..If they made a second sequel to Nicktoons Unite, she might try to get Danny Fenton and SpongeBob SquarePants.
Note: Danny knows about rocket science(like Jimmy) and SpongeBob is a clueless yutz with buck teeth (like Timmy).
