DETROIT (WXYZ) — Playing a little Beyoncé music and dancing up a storm would not be out of the ordinary for 14-year-old Harmonie. She would love it if her future mom and dad would like to hang out with her, too.

She’s been eligible for adoption since December 2017.

When asked how her friends would describe her, she replied softly, “My friends would say, ‘She’s nice, she’s pretty.’”

“I’m really fun. I like to dance and sing,” she added.

Her favorite artist is Beyoncé. She also likes rap music.

Of course, like many teens girls, she’s into getting made up.

“I like mascara, blush. I like to wear any type of makeup,” she explained.

But she’s really looking forward to playing and watching movies together with adoptive parents.

“I’d like to go shopping or play with the kids if they have any, talk. Get to know about each other,” she said.

“I want a dog or a cat. I don’t care. I love animals,” she said dreaming about her future home.
