Easy A's Easy Asthma Attack

E-mail comment on this item

Emma Stone has asthma attack on set of new film.

altThe film Easy A has received surprisingly glowing reviews so far from celebrities like Taylor Swift, Jimmy Kimmel and Chelsea Handler who have had the chance to see it before it opened today in theatres. The 21 year old star, Emma Stone, who you may recognize from her other acting gigs in Zombieland and Superbad, has been generating celebrity buzz over the past week. She dazzled fans at MTV's VMA awards and oozed wit and charm in interviews with Hollywood.com and Jimmy Kimmel.

But what's getting people talking now is Stone's hilarious but somewhat disconcerting story of how the non-sex sex scene famously shown in trailers came to be one of her most humiliating experiences ever. It turns out that during the second shooting of the scene in which Stone's character and her gay friend jump on a bed and moan loudly, making a whole house party think they're having sex, an unexpected mishap ensued. An asthma attack. With no prior knowledge of even having asthma, Stone found herself gasping for breath, eventually needing an emergency oxygen tank on set.

"I can't even simulate sex without dying," Stone joked to Hollywood.com.

Easy A is open in theatres today. From what we hear, it's breath taking.
