High School Teen Asks Emma Stone to Prom in Impressive LA LA LAND Musical Fashion
Update: Emma Stone responds to Jacob's prom proposal:
"JACOB, thanks for making the greatest proposal I've ever received. I can't tell you what an honor that was and how much I smiled through that entire beautifully orchestrated video. I'm in London working, but I hope you have the best time at prom, and I'm grateful you thought of me. THANK YOU. P.S. I do see Gosling around the eyes. Love, Emma."
Jacob Staudenmaier of Arcadia High School in Pheonix AZ created a fun La La Land style video as a way to ask Oscar winner Emma Stone to prom. He cleverly rewrote the song "Another Day of Sun" with his own lyrics "I need a date to prom" and the whole production actually turned out really well! The kid even actually kind of looks like Ryan Gosling, which he makes a point of saying in his version of the song. He says:
I decided to ask Emma Stone to prom by recreating the opening scene from La La Land, her most recent movie. I rewrote the lyrics to the song myself and directed the video and did the choreography too, but thank you so much to all the friends and adults who came out to help make it happen. Especially my friend Alli Gooch who did the camera work and Dash McDonald who fixed the coloring for the video. Big thanks to my film teacher too, Eric Luse."
I have no idea if Stone will reply to the video, but whether or not she says yes or no, there's no doubt that the video would put a smile on her face. Check it out!
