Friendships[]
Penny hangs out with Dijonay, Zoey, LaCienega, and Sticky. However, their so-called "friendship" with Penny is questionable at times as they all have a habit of ditching Penny whenever she is in a difficult situation, taking advantage of her, and even backstabbing her many times.
Family[]
Oscar Proud - Penny's father. They do seem to have a loving relationship as she does seem to look up to him (most of the time anyway) and Oscar is very protective of his "baby girl". Their relationship does get more complicated in the movie, but it does go back to its old ways by the end.
Trudy Proud - Penny's mother. The two do have a loving and respectful relationship. She is the parent Penny will often go to for advice and understanding. Penny is often polite to her mother and Trudy is often very understanding of her feelings and is willing to give her good advice that will often help her.
Suga Mama - Penny's paternal grandmother. The two have a very loving relationship. Suga is very sweet and loving towards her "Grand Baby" and Penny is always there for Suga at any time.
BeBe & CeCe Proud - Penny's brother and sister. Penny is often irritated by their behavior or the fact that she often has to babysit for them. Despite that, there is no doubt that she loves them and still looks out for their well-being.
Bobby Proud - Penny's paternal uncle. The two have a kind and loving relationship. Penny is always happy to see him. Bobby has also helped her greatly with her musical career, serving as both her manager and back up. During this time, Bobby was the one person Penny never stabbed in the back. When Penny had to give a speech after she won an award, she gave the biggest shout out to Bobby saying he was like a father to her.

Trivia[]
Over the course of the series, Penny's skin color has darkened since Season 2 (though it's still clearly an African-American skin color).
She is friends with the peanut people in the movie.
She is the most mature of the group.
She was a solo artist who had her own smash single until she gave it up for her friends.
She was shown kissing only two boys.
Penny, Oscar, Trudy, Suga Mama, and Dijonay are the only characters to be in all the episodes.
Throughout the series, LaCienega and Nubia constantly make fun of Penny's large forehead, even though their foreheads are larger.
In the opening sequence and some episodes, although her hair looks poofy, Penny's hair is somehow straight when she gets wet, indicating that her hair is relaxed. Additionally, in some episodes, excluding the opening sequence, her hair however wears down instead of staying tied up in pigtails as a result of getting wet. This could be a error.
