Emma Stone has denied calling Jimmy Kimmel a ‘prick’ at the 2024 Oscars. The incident occurred during a montage of clips from ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once,’ the Best Picture nominee. Kimmel joked, “Those were all the parts of ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ we’re allowed to show on TV.” The cameras then cut to Stone, who appeared to say something along the lines of “what a prick.” However, Stone later clarified that she did not call Kimmel a ‘prick.’
“I didn’t call him a prick,” Stone told Variety in a co-interview with co-star Nathan Fielder. “What did I say? I didn’t call him a prick. I wasn’t upset with him at all. I’ll have to look that up.” Stone referred to herself as “near-unoffendable” and said that the only thing that offends her is when people take her calling Taylor Swift seriously.
The incident has sparked a lot of discussion on social media, with some people defending Stone and others criticizing her. However, it is important to note that Stone has denied calling Kimmel a ‘prick’ and that the incident may have been taken out of context.
