An open letter to Emma Stone
Dear Emma,
You are DARLING. If we lived in the same city and I was about 15 years younger, I’m convinced we would be best friends. I am a big fan. In fact, I first noticed you in Superbad. Even though I spent most of the time embarrassed behind my couch cushion, I definitely peeked the times you were on the screen. You were the main reason I purchased Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, your character’s quick whit in Easy A reminded me of what I always aspired to be growing up and The Help was definitely one of my favorite movies in 2011.
Then Crazy Stupid Love came along and thankfully, YouTube member Jitske15 totally janked this scene and posted a few days ago. I just have one question for you Emma Stone…
How did that feel? Did you ask Ryan Gosling if he really does execute the Dirty Dancing move on his dates? Were his pecs rock hard yet soft to the touch? How did you concentrate with those abs just sitting there in front of you? Did you play off the distraction? Or did you admit to being mesmerized by the six pack? Did your pulse race when he lifted you over his head? Did you mess up so you would have to do it over and over and over again? Will anything in life ever top that moment for you? Does he smell good? Did he have minty fresh breath?
Please use as many descriptive words in your response to do the job justice.
Your Houston Fan Club President,
Lincee
I KNOW! Best scene of any 2011 movie. I went to that movie a second time just for that scene. And then left before the movie was over, since I’d already seen what I had come for. And I am now officially in love with Ryan Gosling. Ryan…call me!
Sorry to disappoint you, Lincee, but I read somewhere that Emma was afraid of the lift due to an incident when she was 7, involving gymnastics, a highbar, a fall, & 2 broken arms… She had a stunt double do that part. It’s too bad you weren’t friends with her at that point, maybe you could have been the stunt double!
That was 11 questions 😉
She used a body double!!! I can’t even get over it. My question to her is – is that the biggest regret of your life yet? because it so will be.
OMG, Lincee…too funny! I rented this movie this weekend and totally thought of you! I watched it 3 times just for that scene! I was never a huge fan of Ryan’s – not a hater, just indifferent – but no more! I almost want to hang a poster in my room! Love your blog – you are the best!
(Do I have enough exclaimation marks in this?)
To find out that she used a stunt double is a bit depressing to me. I feel like I should send an open letter to the stunt double now. I’m off to research her name. I’m going to Google “luckiest woman in the world!”
Bahahahaha! Dying right now. “Were his pecs rock hard yet soft to the touch?”
I love Emma Stone, too!
I normally don’t purchase DVD’s right when they come out…and sometimes hardly at all (unless it’s really really good). Oh I wasted NO TIME GETTING THIS AT TARGET!!! LOL I remember sitting in the theater watching this and just wanted to snatch him right off the screen!!!
A body double?!?! Dang! I’d get over my fear w/ the quickness w/ someone that hot being my reward….I’m sorry I think I could have done that better…can we do it again? How about one more time? I KNOW I’ll get it right this time. (Side convo w/ director…feel free to take a piece of my cash if we can do this scene like ALL DAY!). LOL
I do still love her too though…Easy A had me rolling! Even though her part was small in Friends with Benefits…she did it well.
Your 2nd and 3rd sentence, is what my friend Larissa and I say about you. Except, we’re only a couple years apart. If ever you visit Minneapolis, be sure to let us know!
Holy Crap…and now I just watched the video. Jiminy Crickets! My girlfriends and I are doing “dinner night” at my place this evening and I fully intend to serve this DVD as dessert!
I completely missed this in the theater. I wanted to go and texted the boyfriend saying, “Let’s go see Crazy Stupid Love.” His response was, “Ugh.” I am TOTALLY buying the dvd at Target now.
