How old was Emma Roberts in Blow?

Portraying Kristina Sunshine Jung, the daughter of Johnny Depp’s character, the infamous drug trafficker George Jacob Jung, she had to audition for the role like everyone else.

“My mom didn’t want me to act,” she told Glamour in 2015 about her acting aspirations. “I said to her, ‘You’re not supporting my dreams!’ She decided to let me go on one audition, thinking I’d see what rejection was like. That was Blow, and I got the part.”

Emma was 9 when auditioning for the role and 10 when the movie was released on April 6, 2001. Born on February 10, 1991, in Rhinebeck Village, New York, she turned 10 on February 10, 2001.

In February 2016, she seemed to be missing channeling her inner Chanel Oberlin as she made a trip to the salon to get her long tresses back. Emma was spotted leaving 901 Salon with her Chanel-inspired tresses in Los Angeles.

Apparently, Emma had been in and out of the salon to get temporary hair extensions since her dramatic cut. We guess she couldn’t leave Chanel behind.
