Virginia Toffen - The show's antagonist, daughter of a very wealthy and successful toilet paper entrepreneur. Virginia suffers from a symptom where she thinks she is the centre of the universe, as revealed in the episode "The Uniform". Her enemy is Lola, and she is used to hanging out with a girl named Beatrice and formerly Leticia.

Lucas - The sneak. His closest friends are Charlie and Chuck. In one episode, Virginia paid him to impersonate Marco Amore and make Lola sad. However, Lola discovered Virginia's scheme, and he ended up dressing up as Marco to take Lola home. The episode concluded with the "Marco" cake that Lola made being thrown at his face.

Chuck - One of Lola's classmates, his best friends are Charlie and Lucas. Haide used to have a crush on him, and Lola used to date him, a revealed secret which nearly broke Lola and Haide's friendship. He is African-Spanish.

Leticia - Virginia's former friend from her old private school, Columbus.
