In a recent revelation, Emma Stone, star of "Poor Things," shared her annual quest to secure a coveted role—being a contestant on the iconic trivia show, Jeopardy! Despite her Oscar-winning status, Stone expressed her desire to participate as a regular contestant rather than on Celebrity Jeopardy!, stating, "I want to earn my stripes."
Stone detailed her persistent efforts, explaining that she applies every June and diligently prepares for the show. She emphasized her commitment by mentioning that she takes the Jeopardy! test annually but has yet to secure a spot on the show. The actress, known for her roles in films like La La Land, expressed confidence in her trivia skills, stating, "I swear, I could go on Jeopardy!"
While Stone hasn't fulfilled her Jeopardy! dream, she is having success on the award season stage. The 35-year-old actress won a Golden Globe for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture-Musical or Comedy for her role in Poor Things. In her acceptance speech, Stone reflected on the impact of her character, Bella, on her perspective on life.
Stone also received additional award nominations, including a Golden Globes nod for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series-Drama for The Curse and a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for her role in Poor Things. Despite her ongoing pursuit of Jeopardy!, Stone remains grateful for the recognition and the opportunity to work alongside talented cast members.
As Emma Stone continues to aim for success both on and off the trivia show stage, her dedication to earning her spot on Jeopardy! adds a unique dimension to her illustrious career.
