8 Times Emma Roberts Slayed Her Roles In These Movies & TV Shows

FOX

In case you were in need of inspiration for what to binge this weekend, here are some of Emma's best roles in different movies and shows. She's definitely in more films/shows that also deserve credit, but something about these just hit differently. Emma continues to inspire millions of people around the world by being a true icon.

1. 'Aquamarine' - Claire Brown

Maisa Teat

Taking the number one spot, hands down is Emma's role as Claire in 'Aquamarine.' This movie is a classic and is beloved by many for so many reasons. Emma, along with JoJo and Sara Paxton, creates the perfect trifecta that makes us all wish we had a mermaid BFF. Claire is just trying to get a mermaid wish to help keep her only friend Hailey from moving to Australia. Emma's acting, combined with the cast, makes 'Aquamarine' the ideal candidate for number one. Also, this movie single-handedly made all of us want to dye our hair blue and for that influence alone, it should win.

2. 'American Horror Story' - Madison Montgomery

Obviously coming in at an extremely close second, the number two role is the spellbinding Madison Montgomery. Emma as Madison is arguably the best fictitious character since Regina George. Madison is a self-centered hyper-confident witch who is slightly narcissistic- AKA, a boss ass bitch. Madison is also a famous Hollywood actress used to getting things her way, the perfect fit for Emma, don't ya think? This is the role she was born to play, which is why she does it so f*****g well and why Madison has literally come back from Hell to be a character on multiple seasons. This is a must-see.

3. 'Scream Queens' - Chanel Oberlin

Another close contender, and rounding out the top three, is Emma Robert's portrayal of Chanel Oberlin in 'Scream Queens.' Chanel is a self-centered, almost dictator-like, president of her sorority Kappa Kappa Tau. Chanel ruthlessly tears down her minions "The Chanels," which consists of Ariana Grande, Billie Lourd, and Abigail Breslin. She still expects nothing but complete loyalty from them, which she gets because she's Chanel Oberlin. Emma as Chanel is not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed.

4. 'Wild Child' - Poppy Moore

Not as well known is the character Emma portrayed in Wild Child,' Poppy Moore. If you haven't seen 'Wild Child,' go rent it immediately. If you have seen this truly amazing film, then you already understand. Poppy Moore is a high school Malibu diva who is sent to boarding school in England. She then *spoiler alert* falls for Alex Pettyfer's character, who happens to be the headmistresses' son, all while realizing boarding school might not be as bad as she thought it would. This not-as-mainstream Emma Roberts movie is the perfect rainy day flick.

5. 'Unfabulous' - Addie Singer

Addie Singer's songs about middle school always knew exactly how to put into words things we just could not. Young Roberts played Addie on the television screens of Nickelodeon for three seasons. This pivotal role in her early acting career set her up for stardom in many of the movies we love.

6. 'We're the Millers' - Casey Mathis/Casey Miller

Emma's character Casey in the comedy 'We're the Millers' is absolutely hilarious alongside Jennifer Aniston, Jason Sudeikis, and Will Poulter. She is a runaway troubled youth with a quick wit just trying to make a buck helping Jason's Sudeikis' character transport marijuana across United States borders- iconic. Also, she makes street living look... good? Like, she legit had an iPhone?

7. 'Nancy Drew' - Nancy Drew

Another family favorite, Emma in the movie 'Nancy Drew.' Y'all already know we stan an investigative queen. She was the original influencer, wearing loafers long before they were trendy. Slaying the vintage style while the Instagram girls were still on the playground! Nancy is sweet, young, and as seen in the movie, genuinely smarter than her local police force. Reminds me of myself!

8. (Honorable Mention) 'Hotel for Dogs' - Andi

Not quite landing an official ranking, but an honorable mention goes to Emma's role as Andi (she doesn't even have a last name) in 'Hotel for Dogs.' This movie is not cinematic gold, but it has a cute message and in it, they save a bunch of homeless dogs, which is good. Also, it has 'Wizards of Waverly Place' star Jake T. Austin in it, hence the honorable mention.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
