For those who haven't heard the good news yet, DHX Media and Hasbro Studios announced that Derpy Hooves is getting a new official voice actress!

Yay! :iconderpy-hooves: Yay!

Apparently, the decision was made in response to the recent controversy surrounding Derpy's voice and as a result of the character's integral role in the overarching storyline of season 3. So who did the studio pick? None other than Lene Nystrøm, best known as the lead singer for the Danish-Norwegian dance-pop group Aqua.

For those who haven't experienced Aqua, here is a sample (imagine it is being sung by Derpy and Flutterguy!): www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ks-6C…

I couldn't be more excited and can't wait to hear Lene Nystrøm's version of Derpy in season 3, especially during her musical numbers (MLP FiM composer Daniel Ingram has already tweeted that she has at least three so far)!

Needless to say, I'm very pleased. What do you think of the casting? Let me know in the comments below!

(Edit: April Fools! Although Lene Nystrøm's voice will always be my Derpy headcanon.)
