Emily Jordan Osment was born in Los Angeles on March 10, 1992. She is the younger sister of the
Sixth Sense star, Haley Joel Osment.
Her father is also an actor of some renown. Following in their footsteps, Emily started her acting career performing in several
commercials, including a radio spot with Dick Van Dyke,
before making her film debut in
The Secret Life of Girls. That same year she landed a role in the Hallmark film,
Sarah, Plain and Tall: Winter's End, as the daughter of Glenn Close and Christopher Walken. Her role led to a
nomination for
Best Young Actor.
After that, Emily played several smaller roles for in
3rd Rock from the Sun,
Touched by an Angel, and
Friends. During this time, she also did voice acting alongside
her brother, John Cleese, Catherine O'Hara, and Harry Shearer in the short animated film,
Edwurd Fudwupper Fibbed Big.
Finally, Emily landed the much sought after role of Gerti Giggles in
Spy Kids 2: Island of Lost Dreams.
Writer/Director Robert Rodriguez was so impressed by her audition that he made the role longer without even
knowing that she was the sister of Haley Joel Osment. She then appeared in the sequel,
Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over.
She is now appearing as a regular on the hit Disney Channel show,
Hannah Montana, in which she plays the hyperactive
Lily Truscott, alongside costars Miley Cyrus and Mitchell Musso.
She enjoys writing action novels, knitting, and playing golf and soccer. She likes The Beatles,
Led Zeppelin, and Modest Mouse. She's a big Audrey Hepburn fan and especially likes
Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Unlike her character on
Hannah Montana, she doesn't like much pop music. She likes the hard rock band AC/DC.
She sings. And her most prized possession is a pair of pearl earrings her dad bought her in Tokyo.
