What has happened to Sweetie Belle's voice?

I love Sweetie Belle, she is my favorite CMC. Part of the reason is that she is so cute. :wub: And her voice is just so adorable. But, in season four, it seems that her voice is slightly different now, I first noticed in "Twilight Time"

I don't know if anypony else has noticed this. Maybe they're purposely showing age progression? Though, only about a year has passed since the beginning of season one to the beginning of season four. Plus I haven't really noticed any difference in the other's voices. Whatever it is, personally, I don't like it. She still cracks and squeaks, but I like her old voice, it's much more adorable :wub:

I think it's call puberty.

 

(EDIT: And I mean that for both the character AND the voice actress. Sweetie's VA is an actual kid. And the show's been around for a few years now. She's getting older and her voice is changing.)

Sweetie Belle started hittin' the roids a while back to help her achieve her goal of being a professional body-builder :D

Seriously, though, she's getting older. She's growing up :D That's all it is.

 

Can't stay young forever.

Voice actors get older, and I'm guessing the characters do too. Still, they could record future lines ahead of time, so VA age won't matter.

Sweetie Belle's VA is hitting puberty, and with the way the CMC are progressing as a whole, it actually seems fitting that their voices may change due the aging of the VA's....especially with Sweetie Belle in Twilight Time (she stole the show there)

 

I still think Sweetie Belle is adorable. :wub: :wub:

Sweetie's voice actress Claire Corlett was only about 11 or 12 when the show started, and she's 14 now. As everyone has said so far, puberty is a thing and her voice has changed. Even for the character having only aged a year over the last three seasons, horses and ponies age faster than humans so it does make sense.

Whadya know.  I didn't realize until now that her voice really has changed quite a bit.  She can still do that characteristic squeak, though.

WOW, I knew that Sweetie's voice sounded different when I watched Twilight Time, but I didn't realize it changed that much in only a span of 2 years. Applebloom and Scootaloo both still sound the same, but that can be due to their VA's being able to retain their youthful and childlike voices unlike Claire. Listening to how she sounded in Sisterhooves Social, I find it a bit jarring that her voice is deeper, yet she still remains the same size and age in the show.

 

I know that EQD had a poll a while back asking whether or not the CMC should age as the show progresses, & I really hope that they do. It would be interesting to see them as teenagers and we would be able able to explore more mature themes (+ I think they would still be cute as ever  :wub: ).

The voices of child actors change all the time. Unfortunately for them it happens. This happened to the actor who did the voice of Skippy on Animaniacs. towards the end of the series, his voice dropped enough that they had to alter it to make it sound higher.

I think that her voice acter went through puberty while Sweetie Belle’s character has yet to catch up. The animators still haven’t designed Sweetie Belle or the CMC’s to match their age progression through the series, so I have no reason to believe that they changed her voice for that reason.
