The Proud Family Wiki

Danté is a character in the Disney Channel original series, The Proud Family. He made his appearance in the episode "Twins to Tweens" and served as CeCe's love interest when she and her twin brother were transformed into tweens, effectively replacing Penny Proud. He is a member of the Willie T. Ribbs Racer Football Team and is relatively popular at school.

He was voiced by M. Darnell Suttles of Space Jam fame.

Physical Appearance[]

Danté is tall and light-skinned with darker colored lips, a dark brown afro and hazel colored eyes. He wears a cyan colored jersey styled t-shirt with the number "1" on it, a matching visor in which he wears backwards and navy colored pants. He wore an earring in his left ear in one scene. He has an extremely deep, heavy baritone voice that coincides with his smooth disposition.

History[]

One day, Danté hosted a pool party in his backyard and invited all of the kids at school to attend. Penny was stuck babysitting the twins as usual and therefore was prevented from being able to attend. Al Roker then showed up and transformed the twins into 14 year olds, enabling Penny to attend his party. Initially, he was interested in Penny but then naturally gravitated towards CeCe as did all of the other characters due to Roker's spell, thus sending Penny on a downward spiral. Danté and CeCe got together and initially, it went perfectly for them as Danté played on the football team while CeCe somehow made the cheer team despite there previously not being enough room for both Penny and LaCienega to both join due to a lack of uniforms. Eventually, CeCe's true personality began to surface, and Danté seemed to become frustrated with CeCe's nagging as they were racing go-karts with Dijonay, her date Sticky, LaCienega and her date BeBe in his tween form. Once BeBe and CeCe are changed back to normal, his memories of CeCe are wiped clean and he rekindles his interest Penny, but unfortunately she's over him by this point, though she maintains no hard feelings.

Personality[]

Danté is a mellow yet charming young man. He is a smooth talker while having a deep voice which seems to attract the ladies. For the most part he seems to be a gentleman but treated Penny poorly when her brother and sister were tweens most likely due to the fact that he was being affected by Al Roker's magic just as all of the other characters were. Other than that, he gives off good vibes and people are usually comfortable in his presence. He also has a knack for flirting.
