Although Emma Stone has achieved great success as an actress, she has another goal in life that she has not yet achieved.

Stone revealed himself to be a big “danger.” She has been trying for years to appear on the popular game show.

“I apply every June,” she explained in an interview on Variety's Awards Circuit podcast.

“Danger!” Fans burst into laughter after contestant skipped the pop culture question. “None of those nerds knew the answer.”

She declared, “I don't want to be on Celebrity Jeopardy.'' I want to earn my stripes. ”

According to Stone, “You can only take the test once a year using your email address, and I've never been on that show. I watch it every night and see how many questions I get right. I'm recording it. I swear.'' It could go on to “Jeopardy.'' ”

She called it “dangerous!” She claimed it was her “favorite” show and it was her “dream” to be a contestant.

Of the testing process, she said, “They just say, 'We'll let you know in nine to 12 months if you've been accepted to be on the show.'” Besides, I'm not on the show. ”

“Danger!” A lot has changed in recent years. After longtime host Alex Trebek passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2020, the show scrambled to find the right person to replace him. Several people auditioned, and it wasn't until 2022 that actress and neuroscientist Mayim Bialik and former “Jeopardy!” auditioned. Champion Ken Jennings has been named the show's permanent host.

When the writers' strike began in May, Bialik quit his hosting job, even though the show tried to get around the writer shortage by recycling old cues. She has since said she is very pro-union.
