Emma Stone Clearly Hated Jimmy Kimmel's Joke And So Did Twitter

Emma Stone may have taken home an Oscar for her role in "Poor Things" — but not everything about the awards ceremony was perfect. Here's why Stone called the show's host, Jimmy Kimmel, a naughty word after one of his jokes.

What did you think of Jimmy Kimmel as host for the Oscars?

[IamKnucks]

When did we start quoting Twitter users and presenting it as news? You could literally find Twitter users backing any position on Twitter.

There's a thin line between a joke and an insult and if you're gonna do insult comedy you gotta be ready for a joke to not hit the way you want.

The jokes towards Robert I did not find funny at all. Even if Downey saw it as joke I would not be comfortable having someone bring up my dark past and turn it into a joke at the Oscar’s. Can Kimmel please stay home next year and let someone else host

[phantomrequim]

Robert Downey Jr. was telling him to wrap it up with the joke while giving him the finger. I do not blame him for giving the finger.

[CaptainMarvelsSon]

I don't understand Kimmel's appeal. I find him very unfunny and somewhat annoying as if he thinks he is extremely hilarious Then again, I feel that way about a lot of people these days. Comedy has changed and not everyone has gotten on board.

I object to the comments by Stone and the director that there way of portraying women's sexual freedom was the only way to show it. Frankly a better way was her picking up Ryan Gosling at a bar in "Crazy Stupid Love" and having a wonderful night getting to know each other and laugh without sex was a better way.

[EvilTheOne]

How's this for a 'sarcastic' solution to those who can't take a joke...NO COMEDIC HOST FOR THE OSCARS! Just one damn boring show where people get awards.

[nicholasmaude]

X? As far as I know most people still call it "Twitter".

[afrolund]

Uh, is too hard to explain what the controversy is about? You don't have to repeat the joke. You could just say "he joked about the sex scenes being too raunchy, or not sexy enough." Or whatever it was. I watched this entire stupid video got no more information than I did from the thumbnail. "Kimmel made a joke. Emma didn't like it." 😱 Thanks for wasting my f-ing time!

[gandalfgreyhame]

Kimmel's joke about "Poor Things" was dead on. There's so much frontal nudity and sex in this movie that in a less permissive era (think "Last Tango in Paris") this movie would have easily gotten the dreaded X rating.

[Zamo]

Kimmel ain’t funny anymore. He is part of the decline of late night shows, remember he has been there 3 times and last 3 shows have had a decline in viewership, wonder why (besides the show itself)?

[GiorgioBatina]

"they are all jokes, soon you're all gonna die" said one "wiseman"

[nicholaswopperer]

Kimmel stopped being funny a LONG time ago

[robertmarino]

Guess I’ll never know what the joke was.

[eherexx]

Kimmel was the host this year?? Wow, then I really didn't miss anything. 😎👍

[osricen]

The worst joke are the Oscars themselves, since... 2009 or before?

[GorillaGrodd]

Don't see what the big deal was all about. There were many sex scenes in the movie. Kimmels remarks were not that bad.

[PetePuebla]

The sex scenes and nudity add to the shock value of the movie. It's part of the personality of the character. Some of us like sex and some are obsessed with it. It's a reflection of humanity. Kudos to the director for not cutting this out.

[darkblight]

Stump: You are a rude and terrible person.

Well if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black.
