History WebVideo / EmmaBlackery

* PromotedFangirl: After 13 years, Emma [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome finally achieved her childhood dream]] of playing with Music/{{Busted}} when she got the chance to join them on their Pigs Can Fly reunion tour.

Emma Blackery (b. 1991) is a Website/{{YouTube}}r from [[UsefulNotes/HomeCounties Essex]], England.

* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Both she and Luke invoked this after they announced they were a couple, saying it was pretty obvious from all the crossover videos (including a "boyfriend does my make-up" episode) that they'd been together for a while.

* BritishAccents: (Obviously). Used to have such a strong accent that Brits can specifically identify her as being from Basildon. Since about 2014 it's morphed into a generic South England accent, probably from collaborating and living with several British vloggers.

* SpellingSong: "Agenda" engages in this in its post-chorus ("A-G-E-N-D-A-A-A").

She originally posted a series of videos of herself reading the well-known erotic novel ''Literature/FiftyShadesOfGrey'', which is how she got her first "big break" on [=YouTube=]. However, due to copyright reasons she had to remove those videos, and decided to switch to vlogging instead. She's well-known for balancing [[SelfDeprecation self-deprecating comedy]] [[IHatePastMe (usually towards her younger self)]] along with actual advice, and is also known for her [[SirSwearsALot colorful vocabulary]] and [[KaleidoscopeHair hair]]. Also, Emma has done things for charity like shaving off her hair in front of a live audience. Her [=YouTube=] channel reached 1 million subscribers in July 2015 (many of which had stuck around since the ''Fifty Shades'' era).

She's also [[HiddenDepths not just a vlogger]]. She's also a musician, and was actually doing music long before [=YouTube=] was around; for example, her earliest [=YouTube=] channel, [[https://www.youtube.com/user/emmaforthewin/videos emmaforthewin]], was based around [[CoveredUp covers]]. Some of her songs can be found on her [[http://emmablackery.bandcamp.com/ Bandcamp site]] and include {{self empowerment anthem}}s like "The Promise" and "Perfect". She has released three [=EPs=] (''Distance'' in 2013, ''Perfect'' in 2014, and ''Sucks to Be You'' in 2016) so far, and has officially announced that she is working on a full-length album, due for release in October 2016. In April 2016, she was confirmed as a support act for Music/{{Busted}}'s 2016 "Pigs Can Fly" reunion tour - see the [[PromotedFanboy Promoted Fangirl]] entry under the "Trivia" tab for the importance of this moment.

* {{Adorkable}}: A good percentage of the time, especially when she's fangirling over LUSH products.

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Her near-verbatim reaction to her decision to [[spoiler:sacrifice Chloe]] in the ending of ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrange'' after seeing its effects.

* CantHoldHisLiquor: Emma gets drunk on wine ''very'' easily, as revealed in ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjguk91bzM4 Awkward Sexy Teenage Moments]]''.

* KaleidoscopeHair [=/=] YouGottaHaveBlueHair: For a long time she kept on changing her hair color; pink, purple, red, blue, the list goes on. Then she shaved it all off for charity, wore a couple of wigs to boost her self confidence (as her hair is a big part of her life), kept it to a natural brown, then bleached it blonde, only to dye it orange around Halloween 2015, turn it a lighter shade of brown, change to purple, turn it brown again (this time fuller and darker), and as of now settle on a rich blonde.

* OfficialCouple: Her & Luke - the internet exploded with a huge amount of squee when they confirmed they were together in October 2014 having have been dating (an open secret) for some time before that. However they (amicably) broke up around April/May 2016.

* SirSwearsALot: Has quite the foul mouth. Apparently, one of her influences and reasons for it was watching ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' as a kid.
* {{Troll}}/TheGadfly: A theme in 2017, of wearing intentionally the worst outfits she can find[[note]]So far, a pair of see through plastic jeans, a shitty eBay waist cincher, and an all denim outfit[[/note]] in public to get people's reactions.

* XMeetsY: In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4c7hd6VWLM this Q&A]], Emma describes her upcoming full-length album like this:
-->"I kinda want to make something that sounds like Music/AvrilLavigne and Four Years Strong made lots of children..[[{{Metaphorgotten}} and those children are the songs]]? [[LampshadeHanging That's pretentious as]] [[CurseCutShort fu]]--"

* BritishTeeth: [[https://www.instagram.com/p/4Bu1RBkt-K/ Used to have a downplayed instance of this]] (her incisors were crowded), but due to (cyber)bullying she began hating her teeth and [[DefiedTrope got them refined via Invisalign]].

In addition to her [[http://www.youtube.com/user/emmablackery main channel]], she also has three side channels (two of which are actually active) called [[https://www.youtube.com/c/birdyboots BirdyBoots]] (a LetsPlay channel), [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFD3tZjm15rcEa6C9Uh409w Vloggery]] (a vlog channel), and [[https://www.youtube.com/user/boxfoxes Boxes of Foxes]], a defunct channel that consisted of makeup videos and advice on things like bullying, depression, and self-harm.
