* SatelliteCharacter: Gets a lot less focus episodes than the other main characters. Most of her role revolves around being a fashionable ValleyGirl who hangs out with the main group and rejecting her AbhorrentAdmirer Screech.

** Possibly the most egregious example is that she is about peace and equality and feminism, but she comes off as pretty misandric at times and is occasionally seen as being physically abusive to Slater (even if the great majority of it ''is'' {{Dope Slap}}s, one time had her put him in a headlock).

She once even hits Slater when he's describing a vehicle because it "sounded sexist".

* HiddenDepths:

to:

* HiddenDepths: So much that even ''Kelly'' once genuinely fell in love with him.



* TheCutie: Kelly ties with Screech as the most sweet-natured character of the group. Despite her beauty, being the head cheerleader and the most popular girl in school, she usually shows compassion towards others and doesn't like upsetting people, especially compared to [[StrawFeminist Jessie]] and [[LovableAlphaBitch Lisa]]. There's no better example of this than when she started crushing on Screech of all people in ''Beauty and the Screech''. However, [[BewareTheNiceOnes even she has her limits]] and will fight back or get even with someone when to moment calls for it.



* NiceGirl: She's head cheerleader and the most popular girl in school but she's also the most sweet natured character in the show.
* PomPomGirl: Despite the stereotypes of cheerleaders, Kelly is one of the kindest and most squeaky clean girls at Bayside High.
