I Think It's Time To Recognize That Jade West Was The Best Character On "Victorious" And Here's Why

The only reason she was the antagonist is because she looks cool, unlike Tori.

1. She didn't care what people thought of her!

Never once in the series she did she change herself when people considered her to be a "bad person." She plays by her own rules and doesn't give a frick.

2. She had a cute boyfriend (unlike Tori).

As you can see, she has a SUPER cute boyfriend who also loves her to pieces. To me, that means that she's way more likable than Tori.

3. She was friends with NICE people, which means she had a good heart.

Nickelodeon

She is literally Cat's BESTIE and Cat is the kindest person in the whole show! That shows that Jade has a good heart because she's BFFs with such a sweetheart.

4. She made emo/goth trendy again.

Jade's sense of style was always out of this world! She was the "cool girl" of the series just because of her clothing. She made goth trendy again and we should thank her for that.

5. She was incredibly talented and wasn't afraid to show it.

Nickelodeon

Jade literally wrote her own play about the tragedies in her life and it was so compelling. Let's see Tori do that!

6. She had so many hilarious one-liners.

Whenever Jade opened her mouth, you knew pure comedy gold was going to be unleashed.

7. And finally, despite saying otherwise, she was always there for Tori.

Sure, she did bully and torment Tori a bit, but she was still by her side whenever Tori was in a crisis. That's a real friend right there!
