Fans are speculating about Emma Stone's response to Jimmy Kimmel's joke about her movie Poor Things at the 2024 Oscars.

During his opening monologue, Kimmel, 56, joked, "Those were all the parts of Poor Things that we’re allowed to show on TV." This comment referred to the many sex scenes in the film, in which Stone, 35, not only starred but also served as an executive producer.

Mark Ruffalo, who was in the movie too, found the joke funny. Emma Stone, on the other hand, was seen rolling her eyes before whispering something to her husband, Dave McCary. This moment went viral, with people on social media trying to figure out what Stone said to Kimmel.

At first, many thought Stone said "Oh my God." But some are now wondering if Stone was actually a little upset by Kimmel's comment about Poor Things.

“Emma Stone calling Jimmy Kimmel a ‘prick’ after he insinuated that Poor Things was only about sex,” wrote a commentator via X.

One social media user praised Stone for expressing her disappointment openly. They mentioned Emma Stone's reaction to Jimmy Kimmel's joke about the limited clips they can show on TV, calling it priceless. Stone seemed to understand how low-cost that joke was.

Stone has been nominated for the Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Bella Baxter in Poor Things. Her fans have been showing their support for both the movie and her honest reaction.

One fan expressed their frustration by saying, "Forget the Oscars and forget Jimmy Kimmel. Thank you for implying that Poor Things is only about sex, when it's really about a woman challenging societal expectations and fighting for justice and equality." Another user added, "Emma Stone, you deserve so much better."

Released in 2023, Poor Things follows the story of a young woman in Victorian London who undergoes a brain transplant and is brought back to life. Bella goes on a journey of self-discovery, exploring her own sexual awakening along the way.

According to Stone, the actress portraying Bella, in an interview with BBC Radio 4's Front Row in January, Bella is portrayed as someone who is unapologetically comfortable and liberated in her own body. Sexuality plays a significant role in her personal growth and experience, much like it does for many people in real life.

Stone expressed that although she is not someone who constantly desires to be nude, she felt it was important to properly honor Bella. She explained that the focus was on staying true to Bella's perspective, highlighting that Bella does not feel ashamed or inclined to hide or hold back from fully embracing any experience.

Stone recently won a Golden Globe for her performance and took a moment to reflect on her role. In her acceptance speech, she expressed how playing Bella was an incredible experience. She described Bella as someone who falls in love with life itself, accepting both the good and the bad equally. This perspective has made Stone see life in a new light and she expressed her gratitude for the opportunity.
