Gossipy Hens | comment |
A group of (usually) women whose sole purpose in life seems to be gossiping about other people, since that's all they do whenever they are on screen, and you never hear any mention of what they might be doing when off-screen. Often used for exposition, since they know the business of everybody in town. They will say mean things about different characters (and sometimes each other when they're apart), and if they get bored may come into the foreground and mess with the main characters' lives so that their gossip can be more interesting. They may be responsible for Gossip Evolution. In a Close-Knit Community, they may account for the way everyone knows about everyone else. Usually almost completely the same in terms of personality, so that their lines are completely interchangeable. The only reason that there's more than one is so they have somebody to talk to. Often they won't be named, or only the leader will be named. Chances are, if your work is set in Victorian or Edwardian times, these characters will show up. If the characters are Jewish, expect the word "yenta" (after the gossiping matchmaker in Fiddler on the Roof) to be thrown around. In Asian and African works, "aunties" are often this. In African-American works, church and hair salons are prime locations for these ladies. Are often members of a Girl Posse, if the action is set in a high school. In a work with Talking Animals, a Visual Pun of literal female birds often do this. Sometimes serve as a Greek Chorus. Compare Those Two Guys and Chatty Hairdresser. |

In Sleepless Domain, Bud is the gossipy hen of Future's Promise School for Magical Girls. She is regularly a source of information of events and students within the school and is so good at it that not even her friend and teammate Harley, who spends the bulk of her time with Bud, knows how she does it. | |

Gilmore Girls brings you Miss Patty and Babette. When Luke and Lorelai are in the early stages of their relationship, she wonders how Miss Patty and Babette haven't heard about it yet. There is also East-Side Tilly, their off-screen rival with whom they openly compete in regards to this trope. They occasionally comment on taking delight in beating her to a juicy piece of gossip or shame at her knowing something before either of them. |

One of these exists offscreen in The Cosby Show, when the grandparents meet Vanessa's fiance. As the man tells it, "In my church, we don't have a church newsletter, we have Gladys Jones." To make matters worse, the woman frequently gets the man and his brother mixed up, meaning like most examples of this trope, she's not only blabbing personal information that she has no right to discuss, she's blabbing (technically) incorrect information as well. | |

In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild there are a few groups of two to four women who gossip to each other, ranging from a trio of Gerudo women at a bar discussing a secret shop to a pair of Hylian ladies in Hateno Village discussing Purah's curious absence. They'll get mad at Link if they notice him listening to them, requiring him to find a sneaky spot nearby where he can eavesdrop. | |

The Simpsons: Marge's two older sisters, Patty and Selma. They're indistinguishable in personality, have identical voices, and exist entirely to say belittling things—especially if it's about Marge's husband, Homer. Ditto Reverend Lovejoy's wife, Helen. In her first speaking appearance, "Life on the Fast Lane," she introduces herself as, "Helen Lovejoy, the gossipy wife of the minister." She later is hit with Flanderization, as she seems to do nothing but gossip (mostly stuff about Marge and her family) - or invoke Think of the Children!. Helen is joined in her hennism by Agnes Skinner, Edna Krabapple, Maude Flanders, and Luann Van Houten when introduced as The Springfield Investorettes. Marge is (temporarily) a member, but ends up more the target of the gossip rather than the instigator. |

The Parasol Protectorate's most prominent gossip is Lord Akeldama. He doesn't always share what he knows, but he loves collecting gossip so much that he's trained a horde of Drones to eavesdrop at parties all over London.

Final Fantasy XIV: In the final Goldsmith quest in Stormblood, you present Ul'dah's ruler, Sultana Nanamo Ul Namo, with a compact music player called an orchestrion as a gift and discover that in the time it took for everyone to leave the sultana's chambers and return to the Goldsmiths' Guild, word has spread massively and there are now several orders for similar orchestrions coming in. The reason: the Goldsmiths' guildmaster Serendipity ran into Momodi, The Bartender at the local Adventurers' Guild, on the way to delivery the gift and let slip what was going on. Once everyone learns Momodi is involved, it's reasoned that once she knew, so did everyone. | |

The Big Bang Theory: Penny tends to lean into this from time to time. In "The Hot Troll Deviation", when Howard and Bernadette break up over Howard cheating on her in World of Warcraft (It Makes Sense in Context) and try to patch things up at The Cheesecake Factory, Penny constantly stays near their table to hear their conversation, at one point admitting that she would not be able to hear them if she waited on other tables. In "The Herb Garden Germination", rumours begin to spread that Bernadette plans to leave Howard while in truth Howard intends to propose to Bernadette, and that Raj has a crush on Bernadette. Fascinated by the effect gossip has had on their friends, Amy convinces Sheldon to spread false rumours among their friends as a social experiment on meme theory in order to see which gets the most attention. The first set Amy tells Pennu is Amy is starting an herb garden, and Amy and Sheldon had sex. The latter spreads quickly because of how out of character the formerly asexual Sheldon had been. The second set Amy tells Penny is Amy wearing orthotics, and she is pregnant with Sheldon's baby. Amy barely gets down one flight of stairs and is passing Leonard when he shouts, "You're pregnant?!" Amy just smiles and asks if the text has anything about orthotics. |

The female and male students of Shujin Academy in Persona 5 fit this to a T. During the first arc of the game they do nothing but spread gossip about the protagonist after an Evil Teacher leaked the criminal record he was framed for for no reason other than a "delinquent" not having any business in a prestigious school (and that school is far from being a decent place to learn), damaging his already ruined reputation even more. Is not just the protagonist who suffers the effects of the gossipy students, but some of his teammates too: The previously mentioned teacher started telling everyone about Ryuji Sakamoto's abusive father, which let to Ryuji hitting him in a fit of anger and getting his leg broken in return, with the school calling it self-defense and all of the other students gossiping about him being just like his father, Ann Takamaki suffers from Slut-Shaming because of her good looks, her part time job as a model and being quarter-american, and rumors about her are just what you might expect from her suffering from Slut-Shaming, and Makoto Niijima, who always does what the faculty members tell her to do because she is always told to "be useful", has the students label her as a Teacher's Pet who is only looking for a letter of recomendation for college. | |

The Parselmouth of Gryffindor has a male example with Little Hangleton's barkeep/innkeeper, John Hanger, whose pub (The Hanged Man) is the knot of every gossip in town. Not that there's much happening in a little village, so he makes do by endlessly recycling the town's only interesting story (the decades-old Riddle murders) to no end, and making up ludicrous conspiracy theories about what few strangers pass through town. | |

Sadakatsiz: Most of the women running TekirdaÄŸ's Charity Foundation are elderly, wealthy housewives with lots of time on their hands. Therefore, in between planning projects, they entertain themselves by sharing the small city's latest gossip and fanning the flames of the rumor mill. Particularly noteworthy are Gönül, who has connections with TekirdaÄŸ's news media, and Cavidan, who doesn't have an ounce of remorse about divulging even secrets other people confide in her. When doctor Asya joins the Foundation, she initially refuses to engage in gossip. However, she later learns to use it to her advantage whenever Derin or Gönül is being too obnoxious — Asya knows both women care a lot about their public image. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker gives us Pompie and Vera, who seem to love gossiping about anything, particularly the local photographer. Also, there are two little girls who carry on in the same manner. In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild there are a few groups of two to four women who gossip to each other, ranging from a trio of Gerudo women at a bar discussing a secret shop to a pair of Hylian ladies in Hateno Village discussing Purah's curious absence. They'll get mad at Link if they notice him listening to them, requiring him to find a sneaky spot nearby where he can eavesdrop. |

The format in the late 80s and 90s was essentially that halfway through the episode, the ladies would meet up to discuss the men's latest Zany Scheme, sometimes including Gossip Evolution. The punchline was that they would all drink their tea simultaneously. Drink your coffee! |

An all male example is used in Jean de Florette/Manon of the Spring. A group of old farmers hang out in the village, talking about farming and rumors. They turn out to be pivotal to the plot of the two movies, as it is due to their inaction that Jean goes insane, and in the end they are the ones that confess about their knowledge of the spring and the cause of Jean's death to Manon. | |

In the Fritz Lang movie Fury, these women's actions inflate the arrest of an innocent traveler into the capture of a child-kidnapper. During the gossip-chain scene, there's even a brief shot of chickens. (Thanks to the gossip, the townspeople storm the jail and set fire to it.) | |

Mrs. Jennings of Sense and Sensibility with her gossipy rooster of a son-in-law, Sir John. They love nothing better than to tease and joke the young people in their acquaintance about any romantic prospects and spread such news around the neighborhood. Even when Elinor asks Mrs. Jennings directly to stop talking about Marianne and Willoughby's supposed engagement (which, in actuality, does not exist), Mrs. Jennings simply laughs and says she'll do no such thing. | |

In the Animal Crossing series, the main source of gossip in your town comes from snooty villagers, which are one of the six (eight from New Leaf onwards) personality types found among villagers. Amusingly enough, they often try to deny the fact that they gossip about their neighbours. For added extra points, some of the snooty villagers are literally hens. | |

A variation in Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Albert Sandy has a lot of stories to share at lunch, such as how a guy practiced jumping out of a hole that he made slightly deeper everyday until he was able to jump several feet in the air. Whether or not they're actually true or if he's spicing it up or not is never revealed. Of course, the other kids believe him straight, though Greg has come to realize by The Meltdown that most of what he has to say is just complete nonsense. | |

Susanita from Mafalda is a Hen in training. When she's not rambling about the many sons she'll have when she grows up, of course. To make things worse (or funnier), Susanita's House Wife mother is exactly the same way. So much that even Susanita gets embarrassed when she spreads gossip in front of her and her friends. |

Manga-Waido: Mrs. Hino is a housewife who loved to spread false rumors about the other neighbors. This is deconstructed, since her constant gossiping drove the other housewives to chew her out for it, driving her to target quieter housewives instead. However, her gossiping comes back to bite her when she calls Rina Satou about the latter's husband cheating on her with a younger girl, but Rina tells her that her husband is a detective and the girl in question was the fiancee of a Yakuza executive. After she and her lover got beaten up by the Yakuza, it turns out said lover was Mrs. Hino's husband. | |
