Emma, major congrats on winning this FOTM and props for making this spot active during the hiatus with your Dream Cover and Quote contests! Here's the interview, enjoy :]
1. Congrats on winning, Emma! How do you feel?
Honestly I feel really flattered. I amor the fãs at the glee spot and I'm glad they seem to like me too!
2. What was the first episode of glee you watched and how did you get into this show?
I watched the Pilot first. I saw previews for it over the summer, but I didn't get caught up until November. I think the first 8 episodes had already aired at that point. I'm a singer/choir person myself so I knew I'd amor the show from the previews alone.
3. What's so unique about glee in your opinion? What's the thing that makes it different from other shows?
glee is special because its a show full of mainly unfamiliar faces. Other than Jane Lynch, the majority of the actors are pretty unknown. It's amazing that they are all so amazingly talented. They seem to be great friends. The musical numbers are amazing of course, as well.
4. Is glee your #1 favorito show? If not, which one is?
Gilmore Girls is my #1. Always has been, always will be. Since the very first episode back in 2000 :D Luke/Lorelai and Rory/Jess are my OTPs!
5. Would you change something about glee or would you leave it exactly how it is?
I think that Finn and Rachel have too many solos. Rachel's great, but I'd amor to see the rest of the characters sing more. I also definitely wish Matt, Brittany, Mike and Santana had bigger roles on the show.
6. Lots of promos have been released for the back nine. What are you most excited for?
I am dying to see Neil Patrick Harris and his sing-off with Will. NPH is amazing and I think it's really great that he'll be on the show.
7. Imagine you're Ryan Murphy for one day; what would happen in your dream glee episode?
My dream was to see NPH on the show, but that's already happening! My other dream is that Laura sino Bundy would come on the show as Rachel's new glee Club rival.

Character - Artie!
Couple - Puck and Rachel
AU couple - Artie and Brittany (I do for real want them to happen)
Friendship - Matt and Mike or Santana and Brittany
Episode - Vitamin D
Scene - In Vitamin D when Will announces the teams for sectionals, Artie says, "It's gonna be a cake walk!" And tries to high five Brittany, but she doesn't notice. It's in the background and totally adorable. Hence why I ship BA!

Song - Somebody to amor and It's My Life/Confessions
Performance - It's My Life/Confessions

9. Least favorites:

AU couple - Kurt/Finn (I don't like how Kurt treated Rachel because of his feelings for Finn)
Friendship - Finn and Puck (obvious reasons)

Jacob or Kendra? Jacob
Glee guys or glee girls? Guys :D
Emma or Will? Will
11. Dream performances:
Artie and Brittany? I would amor an Artie dream sequence where they do an amazing choreographic number to Chris Brown's "Forever." Artie would sing at the same time. I think they'd do amazing dance numbers together. They need to get together immediately!!!!!

13. Finish off the sentence:
Quinn and Finn were... dysfunctional but cute
Rachel started... taking over Glee
Artie was dreaming... of dancing with Brittany Brittany and Santana... totally crush on Artie
Sue saw... madonna and wept
Kurt decided to... crush on Puck instead!
Terri suspected... she was pregnant for real!
Only if Artie... would like Brittany instead of Tina xD
If Mercedes were... a little nicer
Emma saw Will... making out with Idina!
Tina couldn't stop... thinking about Katy Perry
Pilot? Just the beginning
14. What do you think, how many seasons will glee last and how many would be ideal for you?
4 I think. Otherwise it would be too long to stay in high school.
15. Who would you like to guest estrela on glee and why?
Laura sino Bundy. She's really talented and has plenty of Broadway experience. She'd make an amazing frenemy for Rachel.
16. What do you like the most on this spot and what would you change if you could?
I amor all the contests. I wish people would procurar for picks before posting repeats.
17. Thoughts on glee kids doing Gaga songs?
I'm not a Gaga fã but I suppose I'm happy for Kristin and Shandi xD
18. We've noticed you don't like one of the most loved characters and couples; Emma and Will&Emma; can you give us the reasons why you dislike them?
I thought Emma was a little crazy in the pilot, and so I never started shipping her with Will. It would have been easier for me to ship them after Will was already divorced. I just think they're overrated. Sorry!
Emma grew on me a lot when she reacted so maturely to Terri's fake pregnancy. Though I think her almost marrying Ken was really selfish. I promise Emma's getting better for me! But when people try to make me like something I'm hesitant about, I tend to react the opposite way. Emma's very cute and clever and I think she'll grow a lot as a person on the show. I look progressivo, para a frente to that!
19. Who do you think deserves to be the seguinte glee FOTM and why?
I think Kaidi, Anna or Mckena deserves it next. They are great contributors!
20. Finally, any last words?
Thanks to everyone who participates in my contests: glee Quote and Dream Cover!!
I can't wait for glee to come back!! Also special shout out to my HJFGs!! amor you all♥
