BD-3000 luxury droids, also known as attendant droids[2] and nicknamed "Bettie Bots",[8] were a model of high-end "secretary droid"[2] used by the Galactic Republic,[5] Trade Federation,[6] and Hutt Clan during the Clone Wars.[7]
History
Senator Lott Dod made use of gold colored BD-3000s at his palace on Cato Neimoidia.
During the Clone Wars, a BD-3000 known as the Hologram VJ hosted a music program which broadcast across the galaxy. Her show was popular among the Republic's clone troopers, and she sometimes dedicated songs to particular units, such as the Mud-Jumpers of the 224th.[5] Another luxury droid was used as a cloaked decoy for Senator Padmé Amidala.[9] Trade Federation Senator Lott Dod owned a pair of golden BD-3000s.[6]
Two BD-3000 droids, Carly and J'Nell once occupied Takodana Castle on Takodana, serving as judges in Strono Tuggs' cooking competition. The pair were also responsible for the murder of Chef Robbs Ely.[10]
