10 Questions with Emma Stone
The fashionable and funny starlet gushes about what really makes her tick, from Miu Miu to Lucille Ball.
Do you have a favorite fashion label?
Stella McCartney or Miu Miu. I love Miu Miu because of how whimsical everything is.
How did you dress as a teenager growing up in Arizona?
When I was sixteen, I wore all black and white, but I would always add a pop of color.
What's your favorite thing in your closet right now?
I love these woven suede Tapeet oxfords—I wear them everywhere.
Does your new film, Easy A, have a message?
No matter how true something may seem, we don't really know if it's fact or fiction. The film made me doubt the gossip culture and the things we think we know about celebrities and politicians.
As a comedic actress, is it important to let go of your vanity?
Lucille Ball once said, "I'm not funny; what I am is brave." It's comedy—you're going to look like an idiot! You can't be funny if you don't take a chance and aren't bold, but you balance that by trying to look cute for your boyfriend at the same time.
What's the best advice you've received?
That 95 percent of the time everything is actually OK in the moment. What you're freaking out about is in the past or only potentially in the future.
What is your biggest pet peeve?
Animals dressed as humans.
Facebook or Twitter?
Neither. Everyone thinks that what they're doing is interesting. It's not.
Have you ever wanted to be anything else besides an actress?
I wanted to be a journalist because I like to write.
Why did you dye your hair red?
I'm a natural blonde, but I never booked any jobs until I rebelled and dyed it brown. When I was in Superbad, my female costar was brunette, so they made me red. It's nice—now everyone keeps casting me as a redhead.
shes sweet and refreshing, love her
