Star Search 1986 Female Junior Vocalists

[@scootermom1791]

Fun fact: Emilie Moultrie was a guest star on "It's a Small World" in Season 2. She also played a part on "America's Greatest Hero," and she has an album on Spotify.

She was going good so much it's looks like America's best bast

Erika Chavarria is so animated! She's adorable. Because she has such a powerful voice, I thought for sure she'd end up on Broadway. Interestingly enough, she didn't. Instead, she's an audio engineer. According to Google, she also has music on Apple. It's so interesting to see where life takes these courageous, talented kids!

[@SiennatheHuman-_-]

Lmao Erica is my older cousin I only found out she could sing recently I have a video of her singing now and her voice is still amazing. My mom told me to watch this and I’m glad I did

Thank you so so much for posting this. I have never been able to get Emily Moultrie out of my head even remembering her name. I searched for years for this!!!

[@lisalashley4954]

Me too. I was fifteen or sixteen when this aired.

[@joshua50101]

Cute smile, cute everything, Emily Mountrei is the incarnation of beauty over the top. :)

[@loud1SQ]

I competed with Erika in New Orleans, in the 80's at an Our Little Miss Pageant. How cool to be able to look back at this.

[@countrycajunfan1959]

Emily, where are you now?

[@hilol9222]

Slimey Magic XOXO she actually still sings, but not as much anymore. however, her son goes to Moultrie Academy, a dance and singing academy that is run by Emily’s mother. I go to Moultrie Academy, and her son is in my class. He’s 13

kzbin.info/door/3SVLa1tB0w5VJEWC9qewIA some music she made some years back. Check it out :)

[@LynseyMorganMusic]

Thank you for posting! For years I have searched but had never seen this clip until now. I grew up always trying to emulate Emily's singing style ( I took lessons once upon a time from her mother) still to this day her voice has so much power and a perfect depiction of emotion that is so raw and melodically captivating. She has an album on iTunes from a few years back. Def not in the show tunes genera, its soulful static rock.

[@LuciernagaPatagonica]

what is she doing these days? she seemed really serious about her singing..

[@residentwillow4481]

She co owns Claremont Craft Ales with her husband and cousin. She's still one of my favorite singers in my memory.

[@CosmicCourtOfLaw]

Why is there only this video of Emily singing? She's so gifted! I can't find any other videos of her?

[@andrewhoward9495]

Check out "If Wishing Made It So" amazing

[@andrewhoward9495]

In particular, 'Give In'

[@andrewhoward9495]

It Wishing Made It So..... "Give In"

[@scootermom1791]

She has a guest star appearance on "It's a Small World" in season 2. Ironically, she plays the part of a girl, "Paula," who stutters. She was also in "The Greatest American Hero" from way back when. Lol She has an album on Spotify now.

[@tannav5]

I recall watching this as a child and being captivated by Erika and Emily. Years later I realized they were singing Broadway show tunes! Anyone know what they are up to now?

[@parentonlyauzers7490]

I can speak for Emily not for the other girl. Emily lives in claremont my city she's in my neighborhood and now teaches dancing and singing full time my kids adore her class she's seriously the best EVER

[@tannav5]

Thank you for your reply. It’s wonderful knowing she’s using her gifts to teach! I always thought she was incredibly talented!

[@AGPfan]

Wow, Emily Moultrie is a lovely singer (and very pretty)! I actually heard of her when I learned that she was the one who voiced Lizzy Bruin in The Berenstain Bears (1985) episode "The Trouble With Friends". I loved that show growing up and still do, and no offense to her, but I personally felt that her take on Lizzy was no-good, compared to Amanda Soha's portrayal in the 2003 series (which I also grew up with, and still love).

[@NoteFromSELF]

Wasn't LeAnn Rimes on Star Search as a junior and then a teen? I can't find the teen performances.

[@70conrad]

Emily really missed the boat by not pursuing Broadway! She easily could be cast as Elphaba in Wicked. Such an amazing talent!

[@ajm1984]

70conrad If you want to here a good rendition of "One Night Only", look for Mara Getz 😁😁😁

[@tonytremonti9296]

Oh thank you ajm1984. I'll have to look that up!

[@NoteFromSELF]

@@ajm1984 Loved Mara Getz and Catte Adams that season.

[@aiberlane3390]

"I'll put it in the bank and spend it on college." Yeah, something tells that wasn't Erika's idea.

[@missymanny8286]

Is Emily related to Melissa Moultrie who competed & beat Tiffany?

[@italo36]

Every little girl sounds like a chipmunk when they sing
