Jenna Ortega has debuted a new short hairstyle and Wednesday co-star Emma Myers just totally fangirled over it – we don’t blame her by the way.
Jenna Ortega and Emma Myers are the latest breakout stars thanks to the overwhelming success of Netflix comedy-mystery Wednesday. Stuck In The Middle actress Jenna plays the titular Wednesday Addams, while Emma is the talent behind Enid Sinclair, Wednesday’s best friend.
Other than their acting chops, it’s the on-screen chemistry that kicks the supernatural series up a notch and we have their real friendship to thank for that.
Jenna and Emma’s bubbly banter during their recent press tour has fans shipping the pair as Wenclair, and the latest flirty comment from the Enid actress has completely sent them over the edge.
Jenna Ortega’s new short hair has Emma Myers lost for words
20-year-old Jenna ditched her signature long locks and curtain bangs for a layered bob just before her first appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. Paired with a Wednesday-inspired outfit of a crisp white shirt underneath a black mesh top, the Instagram reveal has sent fans and her famous friends into a frenzy.
Wednesday co-stars Hunter Doohan and Joy Sunday gave it their seal of approval: “OMG HELP,” commented Hunter, who plays Wednesday’s love interest Tyler Galpin.
At 14.9 million likes, the image is Jenna’s most-liked post.
Nothing could top Emma’s comment, however, even though she couldn’t find the words to describe herself. That being said, the internet knows exactly what she means.
“I think maybe I um…. when you um… I think… uh *gulp*… hi,” she wrote.
Do you know the feeling when you’re just completely blown away and speechless? That’s the vibe we’re getting from Emma. And, with more than 124,000 comment likes, fans are begging the actresses to become an item.
“When will you two get married?” one user questioned.
Another laughed: “The gay panic of Emma AKNDKABDKSBJC OMG.”
Jenna’s admirers, however, are warning the actress to stay away from their crush. “Back off bro, she’s mine,” one retaliated.
Friendship on and off-screen is similar
Their bond is just as strong behind the camera, with Emma labeling their friendship a “sweet little relationship.”
When asked by Jenna about the difference between their real selves and Enid and Wednesday, Emma claims both pairs complement each other well.
Don’t worry, Jenna returned the love in agreement and went to hold her hand. What adorable BFFs!
