1. Her character development.

By the end of nine seasons, Brooke Davis was not the same girl anymore. She had ambitions that didn't include sex and a much higher opinion of herself that led to way more happiness. Even by the end of her high school career in the fourth season, it was clear that Brooke had done a lot of growing up.

2. Her vulnerability.

Under her party-girl exterior, Brooke was fighting all the same demons that most girls find themselves dealing with at some point in their adolescence. But she never succumbed to the voices in her mind, she instead said, “Screw you,” in true Brooke Davis fashion.

3. Her independence.

She refused to settle for just any man, and she certainly wasn’t going to settle for a man who didn’t know how lucky he would be to have Brooke Davis, nor would she change herself for him.

4. Her one-liners.

Was Brooke ever left speechless? Did she ever not have a sassy comeback? I mean, sometimes they weren’t so eloquent, but they always got the message across.

5. Her persistence.

Whether it was a boy or her "clothes over bros" line, Brooke Davis went after it. And if things weren’t going the way she wanted them to, she was not about to give up without a fight.

6. Her heart.

She may not have seemed most likely to take in anyone that needed help, but she did it multiple times. She was a great friend, loved helping people and nothing could stop her from caring for others.

7. Her strength.

Brooke may not have gone through the amount of family or medical drama that some of the other characters went through, but she still never had it easy. So many things could have stood in the way of her and her happiness, but she never let it work out that way, and she never let her friends give up either.

8. Her ability to have fun.

Whenever she was around, things were bound to get interesting. Sometimes it wasn't necessarily in the best way during the earlier seasons, but teenager Brooke and adult Brooke both knew how to have fun.

9. Her words of wisdom.

Brooke always knew how to cheer up her friends, or give them the motivation they needed to make a change. Who wouldn't want a pep talk from Brooke Davis?

10. Her confidence.

Brooke Davis was a very complicated character. She was bold, yet soft and confident, yet vulnerable. Basically, she was a relatable teenage girl. However, she was always willing to stand up for her herself, family and friends and what she believed in.

I think it's pretty obvious now why Brooke Davis is not only entertaining and beautiful, but inspirational. She's everything a WCW should be.
