Emma Stone Applies to Jeopardy! Every Year: ‘I Watch It Every Single Night’
Emma Stone, the brilliant star of “Poor Things,” may have clinched two Golden Globe awards, but there’s a title that has eluded her grasp – a contestant on Jeopardy!. In a recent episode of Variety’s Awards Circuit podcast, Stone disclosed her annual ritual of applying to the iconic game show.
Yearning for Jeopardy!
Stone, 35, expressed her desire to participate in the traditional Jeopardy! rather than opting for the celebrity edition. “I apply every June,” she revealed during the podcast, emphasizing her commitment to earning her place on the show. “You can only take the test once a year with your email address, and I’ve never gotten on the show.”
Preparation for Success
The renowned actress, also a producer, shared insights into her meticulous preparation for the possibility of becoming a Jeopardy! contestant. “I watch it every single night, and I mark down how many answers I get right. I swear, I could go on Jeopardy!” Stone added.
Awards and Acknowledgments
Known for her hard work, Stone celebrated two wins at the 2024 Golden Globes, securing the Best Film Actress in a Comedy or Musical for “Poor Things” and a second award for producing the movie. During her acceptance speech, she expressed gratitude to her husband, Dave McCary, and other key contributors.
“This is amazing, thank you. Dave, I have to start with you really quickly. I love you very much. Thank you for everything,” she said, acknowledging her castmates and director, Yorgos Lanthimos.
Golden Globes Triumph Heading Home
Speaking to PEOPLE at a recent event, Stone revealed her plans for the Golden Globe trophies. “They might be on an airplane. Shaking. Scared. Unaware of where they are. All alone. Confused. But I hope they’re all right,” she humorously shared.
In addition to her achievements, Stone’s annual Jeopardy! aspirations add a unique dimension to her multifaceted career, showcasing her dedication beyond the silver screen.
