User blog comment:Seddiegirl98/Jade vs. Sam/@comment-3224581-20101216200936

I say Jade in meaner. Sam is tougher. Sam would win in a physical confrontation, hands down. We don't know much about Jade's home life (except for all the speculation) but we do know that Sam's Mother is not the greatest parent. Because of this, Sam has had to fend for herself often. She is only mean because she has to survive. She can't turn it off so she is mean to Freddie, needlessly. After Jade got "hit" in Stage Fighting she asks for someone to call her Mom and Beck says he'll do it. Didn't sound like Jade has any problem with her Mom. (I know that is assuming a lot from one line of dialog.) Jade has cultivated her image because she likes it. Sam is doing so because she has to.
