A 16-year-old Ethiopian dancer is poised to become the next Yellow Wiggle.
Up-and-coming star Tsehay Hawkins has been announced as Emma Watkins' replacement, after the beloved entertainer stepped down following 11 years with the children's group.
Emma, 32, was the first female Wiggle and became an instant hit among fans, but said spending time at home during the pandemic saw her reassess her priorities for the future.
"Like many people around the world, the pandemic has given me time to reflect on what is important in life. For me, that means spending more time at home, something that I didn't realise I was missing out on being away eight months of the year on tour, but something that I have really cherished over the last 18 months," she said in a statement.
