Emma Stone Says She's Been Applying to Get on 'Jeopardy!' for Years


real 'jeopardy!' only

Variety Awards Circuit

Emma Stone is a ‘Jeopardy!’ buff — and says she’s been trying to get on the show for years to no avail … but that’s because she’s been applying as a normie, when she’s anything but.

The movie star dished this interesting tale on a recent episode of Variety’s Awards Circuit podcast … revealing she’s a huge fan of the long-running trivia show, and that she’s even thrown her hat into the ring to be a contestant herself.

Of course, she was asked if she’d ever been asked to be on any of their celebrity iterations — of which there’ve been several over the years — but Emma says she’s not interested.

Take a listen for yourself — sounds like she wants to earn her keep among regular trivia buffs, and not be given any special treatment among the rich and famous. That’s interesting … the implication here is that she thinks she can hang with the brainiacs you normally see.

Emma also says she watches ‘Jeopardy!’ daily … and keeps score of her answers throughout.

Here’s hoping somebody at Sony hears this and gives her a ring — considering all the turbulence they’ve been going through in recent years as it pertains to hosts, etc. … an appearance from ES would be gold. Get on the horn and get her in the building already!

Then again, it’s unclear if she’d accept the red carpet rollout — Emma seems dead set on working her way up through merit. So, dig through the freshest batch of apps, we guess?
