Sunset Shimmer (alternate universe version)



DISCLAIMER: The following article is my view on Sunset Shimmer's life with how I view her. All events that happened are also fictitious.

Sunset Shimmer, also known as Susan Shelby, is an Equestrian singer, writer, director, and actress. She was a student of Princess Celestia from 1999-2007. She made headlines in 2012 because of "The 2012 Fall Formal Incident", in which Twilight Sparkle was up against Sunset Shimmer to win the crown.

Early life
Sunset Shimmer was born as Susan Shelby on July 10, 1996 in the human version of Canterlot. When she was 3, she loved watching movies. Her first movie she ever watched Snow White, and she loved it so much, she had a furniture store make a mirror that looked like the one the queen had in the movie. One day in 1999, she touched the mirror, and it took her to the pony version of Canterlot. She found out that she turned into a unicorn, and she screamed. In Canterlot, she became a student of Princess Celestia, and she was a great student and got high grades in her academy. In her free time, she liked to go to the movie theater, where she saw great films like Osmosis Jones, Pokemon: The First Movie, Monsters Inc., Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Chicken Little, Thomas and the Magic Railroad, Rugrats Gone Wild, and more movies. However, there were seven movies that made her fall in love with Nathan Lane. They were Love Labour's Lost, Teacher's Pet, The Lion King, Stuart Little, Stuart Little 2, The Producers, which was her first PG-13 film, and The Birdcage, which was her first R rated movie. All of these films sparked her interest in films and singing. Sunset also loved to watch Garfield and Friends on the local TV channels. She got her cutie mark when she rose the sun up for Princess Celestia due to her oversleeping. The reason for Sunset's temporary departure was because she started acting like Nathan Lane's characters by using puppets to talk to people, giving out rubber chickens in place of letters, making sex jokes, saying the F word, dressing in drag, pretending to be gay, calling people "a lot shorter than they were on TV", and hanging out with "little old men". This made her unfit for a princess, and her last words in the pony world before she returned were "She's not even big enough to pass gas!", making fun of Twilight Sparkle, the newest student to enter the school. When she got back, her parents were happy to see her after she walked back home because they thought she got kidnapped. Susan then decided to make films, become a singer, and become an actress after she returned home.

An Animation Age Start
Susan Shelby's first film was entitled "Animation Age Adventure", which was inspired by the works of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. It was released on August 29, 2008. The movie was about 5 cartoon characters who discover what their true role is in the world of animated movies. This film contained spoofs of animated films, with the main storyline parodying Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Teacher's Pet, Osmosis Jones, Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King. Susan Shelby voiced Fairest Princess (a parody of Snow White), and Susan's first single, a cover of Let's Hear It For The Boy, was the theme song for the movie. The movie became an instant sucess due to a huge advertising campaign for the movie, and it got a lot of positive reviews. Susan even won the 2009 Kids Choice Award for Favorite Voice in an Animated Movie, and, at 12 years old, was the youngest person to recieve that award.

Love Love Minky Momo....
Susan's 2009 and 2010 films were her first live action films. They were based on the anime Magical Princess Minky Momo. The movies were based on the 1980's series, with the first film being based on the first half of the series, and the second film being based on the second half. Susan managed to shock anime fans who knew the first half of the 1980's series' ending, where Momo's pendant breaks and she later dies after being run over by a truck by making Momo sucessfully get the 12th gem needed for Momo's kingdom to return to Earth. The second film had Momo undergo a magical transformation to change into new forms as a reward for making Momo's kingdom come back to Earth. However, a dark shadow is about to destroy all the hopes and dreams of mankind, and Momo and her pets must save the Earth and Momo's kingdom. Susan played the younger Momo in both films. The first film was released on February 6, 2009, while the second film was released on March 19, 2010. These films were smash hits at the box office. Susan entered high school in 2011, and won Princess of the Fall Formal for the first time because of her popularity from her being a singer, director, and actress.

There's No Business Like Show Business
Susan wanted to remake Miramax's Love Labour's Lost as her next project because of her love of the film. Although she thought the film was good enough, Susan changed the film up a bit because of complaints about the film made by critics. She hired actors and actresses who could sing and dance well and added a bit more of the original Shakespeare dialogue. The play within a play, Pageant of the Nine Worthies, was still removed and replaced by There's No Business Like Show Business, but Susan decided to make it into a seperate musical movie the same year as a side project featuring the same actors from the film. Love Labour's Lost was released July 1, 2011, and Pageant of the Nine Worthies was released October 21, 2011.

Down on the Farm
Susan Shelby loved the U.S. Acres segments of Garfield and Friends, and wanted to adapt them into an animated motion picture. With the help of Paws Inc. and Jim Davis, her dream became a reality. The film was released August 10, 2012, and was a complete success like all her other films. People who hated U.S. Acres as kids on Garfield and Friends now appreciated it with Susan's unique style of humor. But after this, things went a bit downhill for Susan and her career...
