Emma Stone finally addressed the rumor that she called Jimmy Kimmel a “p—k” after he dissed her film “Poor Things” at the 2024 Oscars.
“No! I didn’t call him a p—k,” the “La La Land” star said during an interview with the Hollywood Reporter published Wednesday.
“What did I say? I didn’t call him a p—k. I wasn’t upset with him at all. I’ll have to look that up.”
Rumblings of Stone’s alleged comment stemmed from Kimmel’s joke about her nominated film while hosting the Academy Awards in March.

After clips from the actress’ riqué R-rated movie played on the big screen, the comedian, 56, quipped, “Those were all the parts of ‘Poor Things’ that we’re allowed to show on TV.”
The broadcast then cut to the “Easy A” star, 35, whose lip-reading fans were quick to assume that she whispered the crude word to her husband, Dave McCary.
“Emma Stone says ‘He’s a p—k’? 😬,” one fan wrote on X.
“I noticed too ! She looks annoyed anyway!” another chimed in.
However, others assumed Stone was simply agreeing with the TV personality, saying “He’s right.”
“People just creating their own narrative. You can’t tell for sure what she said,” someone else wrote.
Aside from the drama, the awards ceremony was an eventful night for the “Help” star, who won best actress for her role as Bella Baxter in 2023’s “Poor Things.”
The two-time Grammy winner appeared in disbelief as she rushed to the stage to accept the Oscar, even busting the zipper on her Louis Vuitton gown.
“My dress is broken,” she said during her acceptance speech. “I think it happened during [Ryan Gosling’s] ‘I’m Just Ken’ [performance].“
