This online voting thing can seem a bit silly actually. Still, it would be nice to see our beloved Emily get a bit more recognition yet. She has my heart, and I'm sure she will continue to show the world her kind of magic. That's what counts. - accskaguy -

Yeah accskaguy,
That is so true. Emily already is very well known, and as she does all this only for the love of music, I'd like to stay with her spirit. It is the wonderful arts Emily creates, which is touching us, and may be some time the whole world. But it is always little Emily who does it, and I think we should act as Emily would do. She is incredibly kindhearted, and said she would like to inspire other kids to do music, so that is the spirit we should stay in. Of course I would like all people to know Emily, but I see no point in setting up silly voting races.
Have fun
Dieter

Hi Peter,
Thanks for that info. I took a look at the voting numbers of the videos that won so far. Maybe you would like to know:
Oh Mio Babbino (Jackie) 139365 Being Friends (James & Jackie) 164210 Lights (Julian Pavone) 92551 Con Te Partiro (Jackie) 227087 Little Angels (Emily) 207283
So Emily got the second best voting so far.
BTW, congrats to all who voted, getting Emily from the backplaces to the second best voting so far in only three days is quite an achievement !!!
Dieter

This should be interesting, with the Bear family decision to have Emily's video's removed how are they gonna handle Emily's win yesterday, it is one of her video's and should be removed also leaving a hole in the spot for Tuesdays win. How is Wonderworld gonna explain this and will the win stand.

Hi everyone,
One of the other young musicians on Wonderworld that caught my attention is the 7-year-old violinist 'Elli Choi' with a video named 'orangecccc' (it's the name of her parents YouTube account). I knew of Elli Choi before so it was nice to see she entered the competition. At the moment she is in 16th place or something. Below are some videos of Elli from YouTube.
Video of Elli Choi aged 5:

Love, Allegra

Hi Allegra, thanks you mentioned this 7-year-old violinist. She is (based on my internal opinion) very good. Also videos you involved in your post are nice and long and she plays there almost as a professional. Maybe you already know me or remember that I am always waiting for the end of given performance how given talent will face. Seriously or smiling. Because it says me a little bit how she loves what she does since he/she is a kid. I didn't see that in those videos so I was watching her other videos and found next one (which remind me of performance of Emily on Ellen show) where she has shown that she "can" smile and she loves what she does. Petee PS: Just now she was at rank 12 on WonderworldTV contest and I believe she will rise.

Hi Petee, You saw my entry I entered only for fun really, and so more people can hear my composition. Just my opinion but I think this whole Wonderworld contest is starting to turn into a joke. I found a young singer's fan forum the other day, and the fans are having mass voting marathons to ensure daily wins. In fact one of their aims was to get a million stars for one video. It makes me sad, because fans of a young talent should also try to support/encourage other kids. Sorry for being negative Allegra

Hi Allegra,
No worry, I was thinking exactly the same when I saw the million votes this morning. Such a contest could be fun as long as people don't take it too serious. But it seems the fans there are a bit about losing their ground. I remembered when Emily said, she wants to "inspire" other kids, or quite similar, Connie Talbot said, she wants "to make people happy". I feel very comfortable with this, but I don't feel very comfortable if people make music to win contests, I think this takes out the joy a bit. I would like to see Jackie singing just for fun, best together with other talented kids, without any competition in mind.

Hi allegra,
I understand your feeling about that voting. At beginning I came to vote I was impressed I can support Emily but also other talents in this way in this contest, but then I found out that one strong fan club can decide there who will enter the final and who not. And that's the problem.
Maybe in two weeks contest will continue in "normal way" until another strong fanclub comes and will prefer only own talent. So now voting doesn't have anything common with fairness and talents.
I only want to believe that jury in final will be really objective and fair without taking into account how many videos or stars given talent has in final. This only keeps my feeling that Emily should/could stay in this contest. However it is only my opinion.

Hi all,
I would like to thank all of you who voted to Emily today but I would like to ask you:
please don't let to be provoked by the high number of stars of videos on rank 1 and 2.
Thanks.

Well it been quite a few days and Emily's video's are still up, this tells me a few things about Wonderworld, So I got to wondering today one of two things first Emily's not watching the contest and could care less if she wins or not OR Emily is watching and is wondering why her numbers haven't been going up at all. Well Emily we haven't been voting because we know your family disapproved of the use of the video's in the contest, it has nothing to do with your talent or our desire to see you win. Emily your a winner no matter what happens in this silly contest and every member here will support you. You are by far the most talented young lady in the contest and we all can't wait to hear more from you.
Don
PS Why do I get the feeling Emily donated the 100 dollar prize to charity

Looks like Wonderworld website is being updated. I hope this means: They remove videos as Emily family wishes Stop the voting, which was just getting ridiculous Emily, don't worry about that contest. Here all fans here will always support and encourage you. Love, Allegra
