Emma Stone appeared unimpressed when host Jimmy Kimmel made a sex joke about “Poor Things” at the 2024 Oscars.
She was unimpressed.
Emma Stone, 35, who won Best Actress for “Poor Things” at the 2024 Oscars, beating the expected winner, Lily Gladstone, in an upset, didn’t appear pleased by host Jimmy Kimmel’s sex joke.
In his opening monologue, Kimmel, 56, played a short clip from Stone’s film, and cracked, “Those were all the parts of ‘Poor Things’ that we’re allowed to show on TV,” referring to the movie’s steamy R-rated content.
Stone could be seen in the audience, turning to her husband, comedian and writer Dave McCary, who she married in 2020. The couple welcomed their first child, daughter Louise, in 2021.
It looked like Stone rolled her eyes and said “Oh my god” to her husband after Kimmel’s joke.
But, other viewers online thought she said to her husband, “What a pr–k,” referring to Kimmel.
“Emma Stone calling Jimmy Kimmel a ‘pr–k’ after he insinuated that Poor Things was only about sex….” one fan posted on X, formerly Twitter.
Stone, who tearfully accepted the award for “Poor Things,” later appeared stunned by her win. She also suffered a wardrobe malfunction onstage, telling the audience that her Louis Vuitton gown had ripped.
