What is—Emma Stone's greatest aspiration at the moment? 

The Poor Things star recently divulged the gig that she works toward every night, but still hasn't been cast in. The Oscar winner would just really love to be a contestant on the iconic trivia show Jeopardy!

"I apply every June," the La La Land actress said on the Jan. 11 episode of Variety's Award Circuit Podcast. "I don't want to go on Celebrity Jeopardy! I want to earn my stripes."

And Emma even emphasized just how hard she's been working toward her Jeopardy! goal, spewing out the application process and her preparation techniques. 

"You can only take the test once a year with your email address, and I've never gotten on the show," she added. "I watch it every single night and I mark down how many answers I get right. I swear, I could go on Jeopardy!"

Although Emma hasn't yet cracked that wager, she's taking award season for $1000, as the star has already brought home a Golden Globe for Best Performance by a Female Actor in A Motion Picture-Musical or Comedy for her Poor Things performance.

"Playing Bella was unbelievable," she noted of her character in her acceptance speech on Jan. 7. "Bella falls in love with life itself, rather than a person, and she accepts the good, the bad in equal measure. That really made me look at life differently—and that all of it counts, and all of it is important."

The 35-year-old also received another Golden Globes nod for Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Television Series-Drama for The Curse (the credit ultimately went to Sarah Snook for her Succession performance) and a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for Poor Things. 

Read on to see how Emma and more celebs reacted to their SAG Awards nominations.

“Thank you SAG!!!" the Poor Things actress said in a statement following her Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role nod. "This nomination is a profound honor.

No one does this alone. I am so grateful to Rustin’s tremendous cast, generous crew and the best producing team a guy could ask for."
