Emma Roberts reveals exciting new passion outside of Hollywood

Emma Roberts gave fans a sneak peek into a totally unexpected side of her life and it has nothing to do with Hollywood.

The American Horror Story star made a surprise appearance at Fanatics Fest 2025, and left her fans impressed and intrigued with her secret hobby: collecting trading cards.

The actress didn’t make a hard launch of her unexpected passion but already dropped subtle hints earlier this year.

In January, the mother of one shared moments on her Instagram Stories when she pulled rare cards like a Jackson Holliday Topps Chrome.

The Scream Queens alum was captured as she held the card and placed one of her hands over her mouth in excitement.

"The face of pulling my most covered 1/1. #1of1day @topps," she captioned the snapshot.

More recently, she showed off her Star Wars cards and garnered enthusiastic reactions from fans, praising her collecting skills and attention to detail.

"A collector! [clapping hand emoji]" one wrote on the comments section of the photo dump which included a picture of an autographed Caleb Williams card.

Meanwhile another remarked, "Those cards are awesome, good pulls!"

Additionally, Roberts took part in a panel discussion, titled Ready. Set. Collect, at 2025 Fanatics Fest on Friday, where she was joined on stage by other celebrities during the festivities, including retired NFL player Tom Brady and Logan Paul.
