History[]
Background[]
Origins[]
Bunny, Bubbles and Beulah come from the Sunshine State of Florida, hence their names. The three began singing at the Texan Public School 821 under teacher Miss Grizzly. For five weeks, the three performed on Major Bear’s Amateur Hour from which they got other gigs.
Country Bear Jamboree[]
By some point after 1928, the three became part of the Country Bear Jamboree. The three were considered to be the, "Babies" of the Country Bear Jamboree, still doing homework for their school behind the scenes. Apparently the three worked on knitting a scarf for cast-member Big Al, planned to be finished for a Christmas three years from when they started.
The three were booked at Walt Disney World at some point. At some point, they became associated with he Floridian business Bunny, Bubbles, and Beulah's Beautiful Bonnets.
Country Bear Musical Jamboree[]
The three girls would join the performance of fellow Country bear, Trixie. The three girls traded in their bonnets for stetsons and performed with Trixie in venues such as the Royal Ursa Hall.[1]
Development history[]
The characters were designed by Marc Davis. Originally, Bunny was voiced by Jackie Ward, Bubbles was Loulie Jean Norman, and Beulah was Peggy Clark. In later shows, Bunny is voiced by Diane Michelle, Bubbles is Lori Johnson, and Beulah is Holaday Mason.

Trivia[]
- The three had a song with sexual implications, having originally sung, "All the guys that turn me on turn me down". This is made odder by how while the characters actual ages are unclear, the language and outfits surrounding them often characterizes them as young girls still in school. This controversy was also present when Melvin, Max and Buff made suggestive comments about them in the Country Bear Vacation Hoedown.
