Emma Stone only attended the Oscars’ after party for 10 minutes.
The ‘La La Land’ star – who picked up the Best Actress in a Leading Role gong at the awards ceremony on Sunday evening (26.02.17) – was spotted arriving at the Lionsgate party at 12.30am, clutching her Academy Award in her hands.
She briefly chatted with ‘La La Land’ director Damien Chazelle as other guests flocked to congratulate the pair on the film’s success and their own personal triumphs as Chazelle also took home the Best Director gong.
After posing for photos with cast and crew and other attendees, Emma left the Oscars at 12.40am, according to People magazine.
Meanwhile, in her acceptance speech, Emma paid tribute to her fellow nominees Meryl Streep, Ruth Negga, Isabelle Huppert and Natalie Portman before going on to thank Chazelle and her co-star Ryan Gosling.
She said: ”To the women in this category – you were all so extraordinary and I look up to you and admire you. It has been the greatest honour to stand alongside you …
”I realise a moment like this is a huge confluence of luck and opportunity so I want to thank Damien Chazelle to be given the opportunity. Ryan Gosling, thank you for making me laugh and always raising the bar and being the best partner on this crazy adventure.
”To all the people that worked on this movie, I’m going to find you all individually and I’m going to thank you. I’m going to hug the hell out of you when the feeling re-enters my body. I still have a lot of growing and learning to do, and this guy (the Oscar statue) is a really beautiful symbol of continuing to do that.”
