Miranda Priestly Character Analysis

Andrea, or what Miranda Priestly calls “Emily”, a girl in New York City trying to find her dream job. She is in a simple life living with her boyfriend and going nowhere fast. She had a dream of always getting into the editorial field but didn’t know how to achieve her life’s goal.

Personally I think she could of stood up for herself, because Miranda was always taking her life away from her, not spending time with her boyfriend or her best friends, and the big one was her dad. Miranda is a selfish person; she used Andrea even though she was off of work, trying to make her get a flight to go from Florida to New York City, even when there was huge storm! On the other hand though that is her job and if you are getting paid to do the things you have to do, well you’re going to have to make some
