Shana Elmsford

Shana is one of the Holograms and one of the close friends to Jerrica Benton.

Personality
Shana is portrayed as a hardworking woman, even though she may not be portrayed as hardworking as Jerrica. She is caring, nonetheless. She is shown to get quite stressed while designing fashions, shown in both parts of 'The Talent Search' when her new boss disliked the colors of the clothes she made and demanded her to remake them from scratch. She could get very sensitive and think that she's not wanted or loved, shown in 'The Talent Search Part 1' when Jerrica and the others encouraged her to go ahead with her plans, making her feel not wanted. And it was also revealed in 'Scandal'. In spite of this, Shana is no one to mess with, as Pizzazz herself discovered in "Island of Deception", when she laid down the law about the Holograms and the Misfits co-operating while they were shipwrecked on a tropical island. She can also assert herself even though she is sensitive and can be a little sassy.

Bio
When she was a young child, her parents died and at age 12, Shana moved into the Bentons'. Shana was at first shy and ignored by some of the other girls but eventually all of them became friends with the help of Jacqui. When Jacqui made a treehouse for them, she made the three girls recite a friendship pledge with the girls finalizing it with lemonade.

Despite being her foster parents, Jacqui's and Emmett's deaths still affected her as they were the ones who made her feel like a part of a true family.Even in the episode out of the past when she heard the the old song that Jacgui's sung through a computer she cried a little bit. Like Kimber and Aja, Syngery gave them instruments that their father left them, and formed the Holograms. Shana was the original drummer of jem and the holograms but she usually love's playing the guitar but until Raya came along she been playing the guitar ever since throughout the series and became friends with Raya.

Shana later met a film-director named Anthony Julian. The two fell in love, and Anthony was the one who gave her the fashion job offer knowing how much she loved to design and make clothes. Throughout some of the episodes, Anthony and Shana's relationship became stronger and the two were one of the only couples in the series that haven't broke up or had something horrible happen to their relationship. Shana also likes to be a fashion designer and designs fashions.
