Emilie enjoys science fiction but in June 2007, she said that she hadn't watched as much as she probably should. She enjoys the "universe of possibility" in sci-fi where one doesn't have to follow all the rules.
Emilie's first "intimate scene" took place in the first episode of the Lifetime series Blood Ties, for which she played a small role. She was nervous about not wearing much clothing for her scene but her co-star Kyle Schmid helped her to be comfortable about the filming that day.
In 2007, Emilie said that she would love to work on the Stargate Atlantis series, which is filmed in Vancouver, Canada. (Unfortunately, that series has since been canceled.)
