When we have a dynamic and talkative teen who is able to carry their own during an interview, we sometimes take advantage of our FOX 11 and do an exclusive "sit down" – with hair, make-up and the works -- and find out who our Wednesday's Child star of the week really is and what makes them tick. And of course it wouldn't be a true television experience without a behind the scenes look as well, so come along as we take a close look.
Meet Emma-Jean (1995) who also goes by Emma but prefers her full given name because it's part of what makes her unique. Emma-Jean is a sweet, considerate and reflective young lady who was happy to give us some hints as to who Emma-Jean really is. Emma-Jean loves music and dancing and the color pink (she wears a pink watch to express this) and she has a great loves for animals – from dolphins to horses.
Emma-Jean explains that she loves animals because they are genuine and have a peculiar "sixth sense" about people. If they sense they can trust you they are likely to approach you, she explains, and if they sense you are having a rough day they (domesticated animals) sense it enough to come and give you some affection or know to stay away because you need your space. Emma-Jean hopes to find a forever family with some of those traits as well, a family who will grow to know and love her, be able to read her, and accept her unconditionally. Emma-Jean is a warm and thoughtful teen who is looking for that place within the right family where she belongs.
