Clara Nightingale

 (called Laura Nightingale in some episodes) is a popular musician introduced in the second season of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir. She is played by and based off of singer Laura Marano, who performed the Miraculous music video.

In "Frightningale", after André prevents Clara from shooting her music video "Miraculous" in Paris, she is akumatized by Hawk Moth into Frightningale, a singing, dancing, and rhyming supervillain.

Physical appearance
Clara has long wavy brown hair, fair skin, and brown eyes.

Civilian attire
She wears a short-sleeved white shirt and miniskirt, both having a pattern of yellow, magenta, cyan, and green triangles, and underneath the shirt is a black short-sleeved shirt. On her right wrist, she has a yellow puffy bracelet, a black bead bracelet, and a large, wide magenta bracelet with cyan horizontal stripes. Additionally, she has black leggings that fade into dark blue at the bottom, and she wears black spool shoes.

As Frightningale
Frightningale has straight blonde hair tied back into two high ponytails with dark gray, star-shaped hair bands. She has heterochromia, as her left eye is cyan and her right is magenta. The tips of her hair on her left ponytail and right side bang are red, and the tips on her right ponytail and left side bang are green. Her face is white, and she wears multicolored shades with star-like side edges. She wears a dark gray suit that has a light blue pointed tip over each shoulder. A cyan star with a black outline is printed on her chest, her upper back includes an upward shooting star design, and the rest of her suit is decorated with neon cyan, yellow, and magenta shapes. At her feet, she has pink platform soles and cyan high heels. She also holds a wand with a dark blue swirled handle, a rounded pink bottom tip, a black star at the top, and a white-edged pink circle between the star and the handle.

Personality
She's very energetic when talking with Alec about her single, Big Bang. She is constantly dancing to the tune whilst talking, and according to Marinette, she's very passionate about her music. Clara is clever knowing she had to look for so many auditions she purposely trips to find someone who would act like Ladybug.

As Frightingale, she remains energetic but is mischievous and cunning as shown when she almost tricks Chat Noir into not rhyming and becoming a statue. She's also childish, saying that Ladybug and Chat Noir being tied together is cheating and will not be permitted.

As a civilian
Clara is exceptional at singing and dancing, rarely ever stopping and can rhyme with ease without fail.

As Frightningale
Frightningale has enhanced physical characteristics: she can jump incredible heights and run extremely quickly. Using her microphone, Frightningale can extend a pink energy whip which, when it hits people, colours them with a pink aura. Should the victim struck with the whip fail to speak in rhymes or dance, the aura turns them into magenta statues.

Season 2
In "The Dark Owl", Clara's music video, "Big Bang" can be seen from Marinette's computer with Tikki dancing along to the music.

In "Captain Hardrock", she can be seen at the Louvre setting up her concert for the National Music Festival.

In “Frightingale”, Clara is holding auditions for her music video and is persistent in having Marinette and Adrien play the roles of Ladybug and Chat Noir. Chloé, furious at not being casted as Ladybug, manages to shut down the operation. Clara bursts into tears and is akumatized by Hawk Moth into Frightingale and is eventually defeated. In the end, she gets her video.
