* FanDisservice: Most viewers are very uncomfortable with Stella’s overly sexual characteristics. The fact she is supposed to be a goose designed with [[NonMammalMammaries a prominent bust]] and [[HartmanHips shapely hips]] contrasts with all the other characters who are mostly designed looking like their normal animal counterparts.

* TheScrappy: Stella isn't all that well liked. Doesn't help she has the only song in the series that counts as a BigLippedAlligatorMoment. The fact that her character design is so sexually over-the-top doesn't help her case with the majority of the fandom either, at least in the mid-2000's when most of the fanbase was more conservative. Nowadays, she is considered hilarious and over the top, in the few fandom pockets that remain.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Stella's song, "Come Fly With Me" certainly qualifies. Including sudden change in lighting and even background singers and dancers coming out of nowhere! Most of the songs are portrayed realistically (except Muru's in ''Wolf Quest'', but he's a spirit so its justified), but her's... not so much...
