Emma Stone is one of the most popular actresses in the entertainment industry who rose to international fame with her work in Andrew Garfield’s The Amazing Spider-man. Her other prominent role was in La La Land with actor Ryan Gosling for which she won an Academy Award for Best Actress. The gorgeous actress has a knack for comedy, however, she has proved her mettle with work in various genres.
Though the Easy A actress has worked in numerous box-office hits, there was a time when she became immensely insecure due to another actress. She even thought of quitting acting because she felt less talented than others.
Emma Stone felt intimidated by Jennifer Lawrence
The Crazy, Stupid, Love actress has become one of the most successful actresses of the present time with her hard work and dedication. However, in her early days, she was not sure about her career as an actress.
The actress shares a great bond with X-men fame Jennifer Lawrence, and they often praise each other in interviews. But there was once a time when a Spider-Man actress was jealous of The Hunger Games star.
La La Land star Emma Stone shared with Vanity Fair for a cover story as she revealed how Jennifer Lawrence was great and vibrant and talented. Emma Stone said,
“She may not even know this, but there was definitely a time early on when I was like, ‘Oh hey, my ego is going nuts, she’s so great and vibrant and talented, I’m screwed, I’ll never work again, goodbye yellow brick road.’”
The actress confided her fear that she would never be able to establish herself like the Silver Lining Playbook star. However, she realized later that both the actors are different and share,
“There is room for everyone, even if it’s an industry that doesn’t really seem to support that idea up front.”
The actress further added,
“We both really do love each other and care about each other as people beyond being actors.”
They share years of bond and have given numerous joint interviews and gone on several public outings.
Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence’s friendship
Reportedly the two Hollywood ace actresses got in contact through mutual friend Woody Harrelson. Emma had asked for Jennifer’s number and contacted her through text.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, Jennifer Lawrence revealed that Emma Stone messaged her, to which she replied,
“F*ck off.”
They have been good friends ever since, and they communicated over texts before finally they got time to meet each other. The Don’t Look Up star said,
“I feel like it was our version of The Notebook — 365 texts.”
The actress further revealed,
“We both really do love each other and care about each other as people, beyond being actors. I support her completely when it comes to work and I feel the same from her, but I know we’d be friends even if we didn’t do the same job.”
Interestingly, it was Jennifer Lawrence who inspired Emma Stone to do the role of Gwen Stacy in The Amazing Spider-Man.
