Jamie Russo

Jamie Russo is a supporting character in The Amazing World of Gumball. She is Tina's sidekick, and possibly her only real friend.

Appearance
Jamie seems to be a hybrid of many different species of animals. She has the traits of an ox; which would be her horns, large teeth and hooves, a lion; which would be her tail and orange coloring, a frog; which would be her skin coloring and various other animal species as well.

Jamie has bright orange hair with small, curved horns sticking out of the sides. Her hair covers most of her head, and partially covers her eyes. Her skin is a greenish-white and she has stocky arms and legs. Jamie also wears a mint green T-shirt that is barely visible and makes her appear almost topless, and dark green pants.

In Season 2, her skin is now a darker green, making her shirt more visible, her voice slightly changes, and is less feminine.

In Season 3 onwards, her voice changes once again, and her eyes are now fully covered. Whenever she is shocked or surprised, her eyes are still shown.

In "The Uploads," her eyes are shown, but covered in black.

Personality
Jamie is a tomboy and one of the bullies of Elmore Junior High. She is tough, sadistic and mean-spirited, loving nothing more than to pick on some of the weaker children with her best friend, Tina Rex, with no genuine remorse for her actions.

Jamie disregards her peers' feelings and does not understand or feel real love. In "The Girlfriend," she violently forces Darwin and later Gumball to date her, completely oblivious to their lack of interest in her. She seems to believe that she can force people to love her, despite the fact that she bullies them. When told that love doesn't work this way, and that it must be earned from trust, she becomes very upset.

While Tina goes for more physical torture, crushing anyone she feels like crushing, Jamie could be considered the bully that goes for an emotional approach, tormenting them with insult after insult.

Miss Simian held her back a year, forcing her to have brand new classmates who are younger than her. As such, Jamie despises her new classmates. Probably since Miss Simian held her back, she also shows an extreme dislike towards authority in general.

Trivia

 * Back in early stages of production, Jamie's hair was brown, and her skin was a mint-green color.
 * In Season 1, Jamie sounded similar to Rachel and Carrie. In Season 2, Jamie's voice had a "tougher" sound to it. In Season 3, her voice changed completely.
