The Wiggles’ Lachy Gillespie, Anthony Field & Emma Watkins

Ойын-сауық

The Wiggles have been encouraging youngsters to get up and get moving for nearly 30 years. The children’s music group was co-founded by Anthony Field, also known as the Blue Wiggle, in Australia. When three of the original members retired in 2012, Emma Watkins donned Yellow as the first-ever female Wiggle, while Lachy Gillespie took over as the Purple Wiggle and Simon Pryce became the Red Wiggle.
The Wiggles have sold more than 30 million DVDs and CDs, and 8 million books. As the way children consume entertainment has evolved, the group has made a point of ensuring that they are accessible wherever kids are. They are on air daily in 58 million homes across the U.S. on Universal Kids, and their KZread channel has reached over 350 million views. Plus, Wiggle, Wiggle, Wiggle, the group’s latest TV series, gave life to a live show of the same name, for which The Wiggles have toured Australia and North America.
Field, Watkins and Gillespie recently sat down with TV Kids to talk about the brand’s enduring success and the new feel of the group.

    I loved the original Wiggles. The new Wiggles took some getting used to but they're doing really well. I love them too.

    Growing up on The Wiggles in the early 2000s was such a great part of my childhood! And now being able to share that love for The Wiggles with both my kids, is amazing. My 5 year old started out loving them as a baby, and now we share that love with his 6 month old sister ❤️

    There's that nostalgia factor for me too. But I still admire the new Wiggles; they are just as versatile and full of energy. The Wiggles have always respected their audience and spoken to them on their level.

    X-Calibur I agree with everything you said. Even though these aren’t the same wiggles I grew up with, I really love these guys, they are so talented and fun, and they seem like very sweet people. I had a huge emotional whistful meltdown tonight just remembering the wiggles altogether because I completely forgot about them. I didn’t even realize that these weren’t the same Wiggles that I watched until just now. It’s just one of those things that reminds you of the simpler times! The songs of the old ones are better though just to note!!

    I'm 17 and I'm still a fan. I wanted to be a wiggle too when I was little. It's not weird at all. I never got to see a concert either. I live all the way in the USA. And if it makes you feel any better, Tia Wiggle has such a nice ring to it.

    Tia Masters I randomly remembered them the other day and came back to see where it is now and only today did I realize that they weren’t the same as what I watched growing up. Now that I see it, the current ones are excellent with children. Though hearing the old ones is very nostalgic!!

    Little boys should just wear dresses if they want to be like Emma but the parents probably think stereotypical . I mean like if girls could wear shirts and pants and dresses why can't boys wear dresses they already wear shirt and pants everyday so I don't really see a problem but their parents grew up in a very different time and I'm also a kid and I'm 10 ..... is it okay if I like Wiggles when I'm the same age and thank you for reading this long long comment I appreciate it (๑・v・๑)

    They’re both good! But in my opinion, the Wiggles just have not been the same for me ever since Greg, Murray, and Jeff left. As much as I love Greg as the yellow wiggle and as much as I want him to still be performing and wearing the yellow skivvy (along with Jeff and Murray in their purple and red skivvies), I understand why he left in 2006, he was too sick to perform, I understand that. What I don’t understand why he would come back if he was gonna end up leaving again. Jeff had heart troubles and had to have a pacemaker implanted in his heart in 2011 and he is 66 now so I can understand that he wants to focus more on his health and why he left. Murray missed his family and wanted to spend more time with his own kids, so that I can understand too that he has a life and family of his own outside the Wiggles.
