Daisy Duck is a white duck who is the female protagonist of the Donald Duck franchise and a main character of the Mickey Mouse franchise of the Disney universe. As a stylish prima-donna, she is the girlfriend of Donald Duck, the best friend of Minnie Mouse and the aunt of April, May, and June who first appeared in the short Mr. Duck Steps Out. Like Donald, Daisy is an anthropomorphic white duck with no pants, but has large eyelashes and ruffled tail feathers to suggest a skirt. She is often seen wearing a hair bow, blouse, and shoes. Daisy usually shows a strong affinity towards Donald, although she is often characterized as being more sophisticated than him.
Daisy does not like it when Donald loses his temper and flies into a rage and she has told him so on more than one occasion. Ironically, however, on the rare occasions when Daisy loses her cool, her temper proves to be even worse than Donald's (as seen in the Walt Disney animated short Cured Duck).
She was voiced by the late Clarence Nash, the original voice of Donald and his nephews, Gloria Blondell, Ruth Clifford, Vivi Janiss, and June Foray in the old shorts. In her further appearances, she was voiced by the late Janet Waldo and Patricia Parris in Mickey's Christmas Carol, Kath Soucie in Down and Out with Donald Duck and Quack Pack, Diane Michelle a few appearances in Mickey Mouse Works and House of Mouseas an alternative voice and the late Russi Taylor in Fantasia 2000, the original voice of Minnie. Currently, she is now voiced by Tress MacNeille.
