    I first saw Emmy in The Phantom of the Opera. She is an absolutely amazing actress. She believes so much in sticking with a character. She is absolutely amazing and down-to-earth.
    She was also in The Day After Tomorrow. She is amazing! She also has the voice of angel! She was the most talented in the whole movie!
    Emmy is so down-to-earth and neat! Im so happy that Emmy is going to college! She knows that she can't make all her money on acting and she is just so smart.

    She has the best singing voice I have ever heard and she's a talented actress.In The Phantom of the Opera, she was probably the most talented singer in the whole movie.I'm glad she is going to college to get an education and get a job so she doesn't rely on only the money she makes from acting. That's pretty much all I can say.
