Emma Olivia Watkins (born 21 September 1989) is an Australian children's entertainer, singer, actress, and dancer, best known as a former member of the children's group the Wiggles from 2013 to 2021.

She replaced Greg Page after the group's lineup changes and was the first female member of the group.

Due to her popularity as a Wiggle, she received her own spinoff children's show called Emma!, which featured her in her yellow Wiggles outfit as a solo performer.

She debuted her own children's entertainment character, Emma Memma, in 2022, releasing her first solo children's music album in September 2022.

In early 2023, she released a book titled Hello, Emma Memma.

She used her film skills during tours with the group, providing them with video and editing services.

2012

In May 2012, the Wiggles announced that Watkins would become the first female Wiggle, replacing founding member Greg Page as the Yellow Wiggle.

The original members stated that they chose Watkins because she was the most qualified for the job, and commented that it was "a strategy for marketing the Wiggles into the next generation".

Lisa Tolin of the Associated Press called Watkins a strong role model for girls, and reported that her fans came to concerts dressed like her and that they gave her homemade bows, which had become part of her signature look.

2018

It was reported through corporate filings that Watkins had acquired approximately 8% ownership of the Wiggles' brand as well as a company directorship in June 2018.

Watkins announced her departure from the Wiggles in October 2021 and was replaced by Tsehay Hawkins.

Toronto-based company Headspinner Productions announced their partnership with Watkins in July 2022 to debut the character in a new pre-school television series titled ''Emma Memma: Sing.
