A fairy godmother is generating great discussion on social media. The fairy is Nick, an employee of Disneyland, California, who works at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, a store that allows children to transform themselves into princesses and princes, and is inspired by the transformative powers of Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother.
Nick wears the costume designated for Fairy Godmother apprentices, a dress inspired by the character from the animation Cinderella, which generated different opinions when videos of him took over the internet.
One of Nick’s most famous posts has over 12 million views and shows the apprentice welcoming children at the boutique door for their makeovers. “My name is Nick. I’m one of the Fairy Godmother’s apprentices. I’m here to shop and make all your choices for the day.”

According to “The Independent”, in 2022, the Walt Disney Company announced that the employees of the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique changed their title to a more gender-neutral one: from “Fairy Godmothers in Training” to “Fairy Godmother Apprentices” in an effort to be more inclusive.
“This way, cast members who may not identify as female can still be a part of the process of dressing and styling the children without having to refer to themselves as a female Disney character,” the company said in a statement earlier this year. of change.
The video led to several responses from conservative users against the collaborator and Disney’s choice, including journalists and personalities.
“Stop taking your family to Disney,” tweeted TV host Sara Gonzales. “Think of how many real girls want that job at Disney and they gave it to him for a reason…” said host Dave Rubin.
On the other hand, Disney users and fans took to the networks to show their support and praise Nick’s work. “Nick seems to be loving his job. Which is hard to find these days,” says one of the most liked comments on the video. “I honestly love that Nick is getting so much love in this post,” says another. “I just fell in love with Nick. We need more Nicks in our world!” another joins the chorus.
Many people also decided to share their experiences with Nick. “He was the sweetest. My daughter was worried about getting her nails done and he was so nice and patient with her,” said one user.
Since the publication of the video, Nick, the apprentice of Fairy Godmother, became a TikTok tag with more than 3.9 million views, with videos that are also divided between support and criticism.
