History Main / BetaBitch

The Beta Bitch's appearance may vary, although it is universally agreed she will not be as attractive or influential as her boss. Sometimes she is a nerd herself (which is convenient, as it gives the Alpha Bitch someone whose academic success [[HomeworkSlave she can exploit]]), other times they are indistinguishable. Making them a minority is also popular, especially if the Alpha already has the stereotypical rich, blonde look in lock.

* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' has Sabrina Raincomprix. Unusually, she's rather {{Geek}}y, but still a loyal minion to [[AlphaBitch Chloé]], who's been her OnlyFriend since they were young. (Marinette tried to change this, but failed.) Whether or not Sabrina just goes along with Chloé's schemes or has a mean streak of her own is DependingOnTheWriter. Their relationship is [[AllTakeAndNoGive rather unbalanced]], but still apparently genuine.

If the Alpha Bitch in question is actually a LovableAlphaBitch then the Beta Bitch will be [[PsychoSupporter the really nasty one]] and may even be jealous of the friendship between the LovableAlphaBitch and the LoserProtagonist. Others may be the FormerFriendOfAlphaBitch, but she ''rarely'' is. And, of course, there are the examples that are outright ''in love'' with the Alpha, leading to several cases of SubordinateExcuse.

* In ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'' fanfic ''Fanfic/ResurrectedMemories'': Star starts out as the typical "satellite" to AlphaBitch Paulina…[[spoiler: except that deep down, she is a tragic {{Deconstruction}} of one. Star is shown to secretly be very insecure and neurotic and only seems to follow Paulina out of ''fear'' of being cast out of the A-Listers and be friendless much like how Valerie had been. The way she broke down in tears over being criticized one too many times by Paulina had Ember genuinely pity her.]]

* All of the film adaptations of ''Literature/{{Carrie}}'' turn one of the book's characters into one of these to give Chris a gal pal to help her with the prank. Norma is the Beta Bitch in the 1976 film, Tina in the 2002 and 2013 films. [[AdaptationalVillainy Neither was actually evil in the book]], though Tina was friendly with Chris.
* ''Film/TheRageCarrie2'' has Tracy as the AlphaBitch and Monica as her BetaBitch. Monica spends most of the film trying to befriend Rachel, all so they can humiliate her at a party.

* [[BrainlessBeauty Marcie Fox]] is this to Courtney in ''Film/{{Jawbreaker}}'', mainly because she's a mean-spirited dimwit who likes to leave the plotting to other people. Later, Vylette becomes this when her new-found popularity goes to her head and she starts to encroach on Courtney's AlphaBitch role.
* Heather in ''Bad Reputation'', though as the film progresses it becomes clear that she is even worse than the AlphaBitch.
* Caitlin from ''Film/TheDuff'' is the mean-spirited minion to Madison, the resident AlphaBitch. She also serves as TheDragon to Madison and films Bianca twice to humiliate her.

* Kim is this to Charleen in ''Film/MirrorMirror1990'', and becomes Megan's next victim after she has dealt with Charleen.

Or if the Alpha Bitch in question is actually a LovableAlphaBitch then the Beta Bitch will be [[PsychoSupporter the really nasty one]] and may even be jealous of the friendship between the LovableAlphaBitch and the CoolLoser. Others may be the FormerFriendOfAlphaBitch, but she ''rarely'' is.

* ''Film/TheRageCarrie2'' has Tracy as the AlphaBitch and Monica as her BetaBitch. Monica spends most of the film trying to befriend CoolLoser Rachel, all so they can humiliate her at a party.

** Tamina has practically made a career of this with the vast majority of her time when she's a Heel being spent as the muscle/bodyguard to other female Heels. In addition to the aforementioned Alicia Fox, she has also played this role to Wrestling/VickieGuerrero, Wrestling/AJLee, and Wrestling/{{Naomi}} at various times. Even when she was paired in a tag team with Wrestling/NiaJax (WWE's other female Samoan powerhouse and Tamina's real life cousin), Nia was the one who did 99% of the talking in promos and got the bigger focus with Tamina mostly just acting as Nia's backup.
