A Quote by Emma Watkins
I'm 27, the Wiggles as a group is 26, so I've watched them forever. The Wiggles are like the brothers I never had.

Well, it's quite strange because there are three new Wiggles - Simon the red wiggle, Lachlan the purple wiggle and myself. We were already in the company doing different roles. Like, I was the fairy, the ballerina, and that kind of thing originally, and then I played Dorothy the Dinosaur and I was a Wiggles dancer.
Even when I was working for the company as a dancer, I didn't think it was even going to be a feature in the future at all. The Wiggles had understudies in case there were family issues, but it was never a thing.
The world is a marvelous system of wiggles.
The greatest thing about the Wiggles, and how they started, was they had that great background of early childhood development and that's what they were studying at the university at the time.
Attitude is an inward thought that wiggles its way out.
I love jell-o. I love the way it comes in rainbow colours, wiggles and jiggles and looks like brains.
I see the other Wiggles more than I see my own family. I've learnt to be more tolerant with them, even though I'm constantly trying to organise them.
All of the original Wiggles were boys, but the girls sure loved them. In a preliteral age before 3, children don't necessarily know it's boys or girls on stage, but we tend to stereotype.
Dad is a really sound thinker and an accountant by day. I don't know anybody more sensible. But when he comes to see the Wiggles, he turns up in a big 'Emma' T-shirt and a yellow cap with a bow on it.
A lot of children's entertainment is animated, and I guess the beauty of The Wiggles is that we're still real people... You're able to be predominantly yourself. I think that's why children relate.
I think I was 26, 27 in Vancouver. I woke up one day and I was like what am I doing? I've accomplished nothing and then so I moved to Toronto. I had a cousin here. And I just said all right I'm going to act and that was it. And I decided to do the work that I never did before. And here it is.
Grandmother pointed out my brother Perry, my sister Sarah, and my sister Eliza, who stood in the group. I had never seen my brother nor my sisters before; and, though I had sometimes heard of them, and felt a curious interest in them, I really did not understand what they were to me, or I to them. We were brothers and sisters, but what of that? Why should they be attached to me, or I to them? Brothers and sisters were by blood; but slavery had made us strangers. I heard the words brother and sisters, and knew they must mean something; but slavery had robbed these terms of their true meaning.
On student films, everyone is pitching in to do everything, and I never felt like I was a part of a group before I started acting. I always felt like I had friends in this group and I had friends in that group, but I never felt like I had my group.
At age 26, I was chairman of UB Group but living like a 26-year-old. I lived my age. Which youngster doesn't like a Ferrari? Which youngster doesn't like a good time?... but my contemporaries were R. S. Goenka and Dhirubhai Ambani, captains of the industry but twice my age. You wouldn't necessarily expect them to be driving around in Ferraris.
Wiggles hissed as I crossed the floor toward the throne. She fixed me with her empty hateful eyes and smelled the air, her long tongue shivering through the slit of the lipless mouth. Nice to see you too, sweetheart. Remember my cattle prod?
I had been a student in Vienna, and one of the neat little things I had found out was about that zoo. It was a good debut novel for me to have published. I was 26 or 27 when it was published. I already had a kid and would soon have a second.
