And following its filming, Stone suffered an asthma attack, which she explained during a hilarious interview with MTV News. The actress stated,
“Oh, for the love, I can’t even simulate s*x without dying! I had a little asthma attack, without any prior knowledge that I had asthma, during the scene where we had to jump up and down for hours and hours screaming and yelling on the bed.

Working inEasy Awas an exhausting process for Emma Stone
Although the movie did eventually push Emma Stone to her stardom, theLa La Landactress doesn’t have many fond memories from her experience in the production ofEasy A. According to the A-lister, considering that she was the one with the responsibility to carry the film, the actress put a lot of pressure on herself, which was too much for her at the time. Stone recalled,
“I was 20 and I put so much pressure on myself. While we were shooting it, I was just going nuts and was like, ‘I don’t know, this whole thing could fall apart, I have no idea.’ Because I had to be there all day, every day. And if I wasn’t on screen, I was narrating, and it was just too much me… I think I just put so much pressure on myself”
