Chloé Bourgeois, formerly known as Queen Bee is the main anti-heroine turned an antagonist in the Disney and Nickelodeon cartoon series Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir. She is transformed into the supervillain Antibug after Ladybug pushes her away, not listening to her about where Vanisher's akuma was. When she becomes envious of Marinette being approved by her mother, she becomes Queen Wasp after becoming Queen Bee with the Bee Miraculous. In "The Battle of the Miraculous" special, she is akumatized into Miracle Queen to get revenge on Cat Noir and Ladybug for not giving her the Bee Miraculous to help.
As of "Miraculer", Ladybug will no longer call upon Chloé to be Queen Bee due to the risk her identity being public knowledge places upon both Chloé and her family.
In "Miracle Queen", after being deakumatized by Ladybug and losing both her army of superheroes, the Miracle Box, and the Bee Miraculous, Chloé becomes bitter towards Ladybug and claims she will no longer be her fan and friend, being then expelled for good from the French Miraculous superhero team.
In "Queen Banana", after being removed from the movie Terrificator and having her half-sister be the main character, Chloé is akumatized and amokized by Shadow Moth into Queen Banana, a banana-themed supervillain and her emotions form the banana-themed gorilla sentimonster.
In "Penalteam", after getting fed up by the class playing soccer, Chloé's Magical Charm is destroyed by Shadow Moth and she's akumatized into Penalty, a soccer-themed supervillain multipled into ten clones capable of trapping people in force fields. With her clones, she forms the supervillain team Penalteam.
Personality[]
Throughout the show's first season, Chloé was portrayed as a stereotypical spoiled, egotistical and vindictive girl who bullied her classmates at Collége Francoise Dupont and loved to use her status as the daughter of the mayor of Paris to hold power over them and even the faculty. Her ego is so great that, when she first found the Bee Miraculous and became Queen Bee, she went as far as to cause a train accident so that she could stop it and be recognized as a hero for it. However, the Season 2 episodes "Zombizou" and "Despair Bear" showed that she did have a nicer side to her, as she apologized for her role in Miss Bustier's akumatization and saved Ladybug from being killed by the titular akumatized villain respectively, and from there on she began to slowly but surely become a better person, with Ladybug even allowing her to be her ally as Queen Bee.
However, Chloé goes back on her change of heart in the season 3 finale, where her growing resentment for Ladybug for not allowing her to be Queen Bee anymore because her secret identity being known by Hawk Moth would endanger her and her family leads to her being manipulated by Hawk Moth into joining his cause so she can have revenge on Ladybug, even willingly letting herself be akumatized into Miracle Queen. After being de-akumatized, Chloé shows no remorse for working with Hawk Moth and even tries to grab another akuma released by him to re-akumatize herself.
As Antibug, most of Chloé's personality remains the same except that she is more vengeful towards Ladybug. She enjoys taunting her and Cat Noir about their teamwork, believing she is weak without him and Cat Noir is playing second fiddle.
As Queen Wasp, Chloé is prideful and arrogant towards Cat Noir and Ladybug, believing herself to be a more exceptional hero worthy of her mother's praise than both of them. She also wants to prove herself by taking away their Miraculouses and feels angry towards everyone who dislikes her and paralyzes them.
As Miracle Queen, most of Chloé's personality remains the same except that she gets meaner and more power-hungry, using her power to take control all over Paris and turn the Miraculous holders into her own army.
As Queen Banana, Chloé gets immensly vengeful towards Zoé, her half-sister, searching to turn her into a banana, all while turning everyone that crosses her path and her sentimonster's. She also isn't affraid to show how dishonest she can be, as Queen Banana, when promising to Zoé she wouldn't hurt anyone else if the latter gave herself up to the villain, she immediately turned a nearby bystander into a banana. Queen Banana is also very cunning and loves chaos as well. This is shown when she purposely let Cat Noir use Cataclysm on her sentimonster to cause it to get out of control and originate more chaos on Paris.
As Penalty, Chloe's personality remains the same as she doesn't play fair by making her own rules and yet she doesn't like it when others cheat despite her doing the same. As when she was Queen Banana they used her anger against her.
