Her favorite scent is Calvin Klein's Pretension and favorite drink is iced tea. She uses valley girl slang, which is mainly used by teenage girls. She mentions her parents are extremely rich. She always has lip gloss, perfume and a spare pair of platform shoes in her pink fuzzy back pack. [1]
She was seen lining up for a gymnastics class with Lisa, and joined a Tap Dancing school owned by Vicki Valentine [2].

Behind the Laughter[]
In "Lard of the Dance", Alex Whitney is voiced by Lisa Kudrow, who acted as the role of Phoebe Buffay in the sitcom Friends. Coincidentally, she also tells Lisa at one point to "not be such a Phoebe", a reference to the character she portrays on Friends.
