Blame it on Ken. Emma Stone had a wardrobe malfunction before her Oscars 2024 win, and she blamed it on Ryan Gosling. Stone won the Academy Award on Sunday, March 10, for Best Actress for her role as Bella Baxter in Poor Things. The award is Stone’s second Oscar for Best Actress after her win for La La Land in 2018.
Right before her Oscars win, however, Stone suffered a wardrobe malfunction when the zipper of her dress broke, which she joked happened after Ryan Gosling, who co-starred with her in La La Land, danced with her during his performance of “I’m Just Ken” from the Barbie movie, which was nominate for Best Original Song. “My dress is broken. I think it happened “I’m Just Ken,” Stone said. She also referenced her wardrobe malfunction as she was leaving stage after her speech, telling the audience, “Don’t look at the back of my dress.”
After Stone’s Oscars wardrobe malfunction, many users took to Twitter to comment on her dress. “So what if Emma Stone’s dress was gaping a bit? She still rocked it. Also glad to know things like that which would happen (have happened) to regular old me also happen to the fabulous and beautiful. #Oscar,” a user wrote. Another tweeted, “@Emma Stone, girl, can you get out of that @LouisVuitton contract, do you need the money, it is consistently ugly and the zipper doesn’t even work.” One more user wrote, A”bsolute disaster! Who was the designer of #EmmaStone’s dress? Bow your head in shame. A busted Zipper or zipper seam is an absolute no-no for a dress for a high profile event like this. #Oscar2024.”
During her Oscars speech, Stone ended her speech by shouting out her daughter, Louise, whom she shares with husband, Dave McCary. “I know I have to wrap up, but I really want to just thank my family, my mom, my brother Spencer, my dad, my husband Dave, I love you so much,” she said. “And most importantly, my daughter, who’s going to be 3 in three days and has turned out lives technicolor. I love you bigger than the whole sky, my girl.”
