On Thursday, _Entertainment Weekly_ shared an exclusive image from the upcoming film [_Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2_ ](http://entertainment.time.com/2012/11/01/wreck-it-ralph-toy-story-with-avatars/)that shows _Sugar Rush_ princess Vanellope von Schweetz at a slumber party with the Disney princesses. In the film still, classic princesses like Cinderella, Snow White, and Ariel lounge with newer princesses like Elsa from _Frozen,_ Mulan, and Tiana while wearing modern pajamas and athleisure. As might be expected, this modern clothing update for the Disney Princesses tickled the Internet, who took to social media to sound off on the princesses’ new, more casual looks. > [](https://twitter.com/dem%5Fdoodles/status/1027599445938991104) > [](https://twitter.com/mbrleigh/status/1027609341694697472) > [](https://twitter.com/Daviesallison1A/status/1027630640731185152) > [](https://twitter.com/TristanACooper/status/1027601959631704064) > [](https://twitter.com/MarioGraciotti/status/1027602630057414657) > [](https://twitter.com/julie%5Fxcs/status/1027598907453394949) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5363926/disney-princess-slumber-party-wreck-it-ralph-2/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5363926/disney-princess-slumber-party-wreck-it-ralph-2/"},"headline":"People Are Not Sleeping on the Disney Princess Pajama Party","datePublished":"2018-08-10T15:14:31.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:54:16.516Z","description":"From the upcoming 'Wreck It Ralph' sequel","url":"https://time.com/5363926/disney-princess-slumber-party-wreck-it-ralph-2/","keywords":["Newsfeed","viral"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte09dd9d838c3296d/6989377c8fd2ee1afa35c58e/disney-princess-pajama-party-meme-responses.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte09dd9d838c3296d/6989377c8fd2ee1afa35c58e/disney-princess-pajama-party-meme-responses.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The Princess Diaries Premiere","caption":"The Princess Diaries Premiere","creditText":"SGranitz—WireImage","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5363926/disney-princess-slumber-party-wreck-it-ralph-2/","name":"People Are Not Sleeping on the Disney Princess Pajama Party"}}]}] ```
