Emma Stone learned a lesson about making fun of Taylor Swift at the Golden Globes when she called the popstar an “a–hole.” Stone poked fun at Taylor after her Golden Globe win in January, calling her an “a–hole.” The Easy A actress has since confirmed that she and the Maroon hitmaker are still very much friends.
However, in a recent interview Variety alongside Poor Things director Yorgos Lanthimos, Stone shared that she received backlash from Swifties following the Golden Globes jibe.
“I definitely won’t make a joke like that again,” Stone told Variety.
“Because I saw headlines that really pulled it out of context.”
“What a dope,” she added as she jokingly pointed to herself.
At the Golden Globes, the Oscar-winning actress took home the Best Actress gong for her lead role in Poor Things. Taylor and her pal Keleigh Sperry gave Stone a standing ovation when her name was announced.
When the 35-year-old actress was asked about Taylor’s support backstage, she joked, “What an a–hole, am I right?”
She added: “I’ve known her for almost 20 years, so I’m very happy she was there. She was also nominated tonight, so I’m very happy she was there — but what an a–hole.”
Emma Stone has been friends with Taylor Swift since they met in 2008 at the Young Hollywood Awards.
