Originally portrayed by Zooey Deschanel, Jovie serves as Buddy’s love interest in the film. She works as an elf in the Santa’s Village area of the department store Gimbel’s, which is an obvious parody of Macy’s. She has a bit of a sarcastic edge to her at times. One gift she has is an amazing singing voice, which catches Buddy’s attention early one morning when Jovie is taking a shower in the women’s locker room. Despite her singing talents, Jovie is very timid and shy when it comes to performing in front of others. This does change by the end of the film. “I can sing, I just choose not to sing. Especially in front of other people.” ~ Jovie
