Emalia, one of the breakout stars from the hit TV series Paper Dolls, caused a stir on Thursday.
The 26-year-old Australian actor and RnB artist was spotted at the NBL Round 14 game between the Sydney Kings and Melbourne at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney.
Emalia sat in the “Pumped by Reebok” VIP seat near the basketball court and posed for several photos.
She looked casual and comfortable at the game, wearing loose-fitting blue jeans, an oversized black T-shirt and white sneakers.
Her dark hair was pinned up, and two fringe framed her face as she worked her angles.

A relative newcomer to the entertainment industry, Emalia isn't afraid to share her views on the business.
The singer and actress, considered a potential breakout sensation for her role as Izzy James in Paper Dolls, has spoken candidly about her experience with fame.
Last month she told The Daily Telegraph that becoming a star wasn't all it's cracked up to be.

“From the outside, fame can look so shiny, beautiful and appealing, but there can also be a lot of abuse of power,” she said.
“A lot of it is hidden and people can't necessarily see the impact it has on the artists who go through it,” the artist added.
Emalia, known only by her first name, is from Bowral and spent her formative years near Wollongong.

Starring Miah Madden, Courtney Monsma, Naomi Sequeira and Courtney Clarke, the series is set in the early 2000s and is about a fictional girl group called Harlow.
Paper Dolls is executive produced by former Bardot singer Belinda Chapple.
The show is loosely based on the rise and fall of the Australian pop group and draws inspiration from the group's success, particularly their smash hit “Poison”, which served as a launching pad for Sophie Monk's career.
