Emma Stone had some nice words for her friend Taylor Swift after the singer applauded her Best Actress win at the 2024 Golden Globes.
“What an asshole, am I right?” Stone, 35, joked in the press room when asked about Swift’s enthusiastic support on Sunday, January 7. “I’ve known her for almost twenty years, so I’m very happy she was there. She was also nominated tonight, so I’m very happy she was there, but what an asshole.”
Swift, 34, didn’t take home a Golden Globe award for her record-breaking performance Eras tour concert film, nominated in the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement categories. Instead, Barbie took home that award.
Swift and her date for the evening, friend Keleigh Tellerwere seen during the standing ovation at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, clapping and cheering after Stone won the Golden Globe for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for her role as Bella in Poor things.
The pop star wasn’t the only one who jumped up to honor Stone. Jennifer Lawrencewho competed against Stone in the same category for her role in No hard feelings, stood up and said, “Oh, my God,” after Stone was announced as the winner. Lawrence also looked emotional as her good friend took the stage.
But Stone’s main focus at the microphone was to give her husband: Dave McCary, a scream. “Dave, I have to start with you real quick,” Stone said at the top of her acceptance speech. “I love you very much. Thank you for everything.”
McCary married Stone in September 2020, four years after they first met. They welcomed daughter Louise in March 2021. Although she has worked less since becoming a mother, an insider says We weekly that Stone has no plans to retire from Hollywood.
“For Emma, quitting acting and being a stay-at-home mom would be like cutting off one of her limbs. That’s just not her,” says a source Us in September 2023. “Acting is as important to her as breathing, it’s part of who she is – and Dave is behind her 100 percent. She and Dave are happy as a couple and one of the reasons for that is because they respect each other as artists.
