Emma Stone calls Oscar fiasco one of 'most horrible moments'
Los Angeles

Oscar winning actress Emma Stone tagged the Best Picture fiasco
at the 89th Annual Academy Awards as one of 'the most horrible moments'
in her life.
Stone, who won the Best Actress award at the gala on February
26, was still celebrating her win when Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway announced
that 'La La Land' won the Best Picture category. Shortly after the
cast walked onto the stage to accept the trophy, panicked Oscars team announced
that there was a mistake as the winner was supposed to be 'Moonlight'.
'(It was) One of the most horrible moments of my life.
Wow! It was just so horrible,' Stone told dailymail.co.uk.
PricewaterhouseCoopers, the company which was responsible for
the Academy voting, has apologised for the mistake.
'We sincerely apologise to 'Moonlight', 'La La Land',
Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway and Oscar viewers for the error that was made during
the award announcement for Best Picture,' said Brian Cullinan, a representative
for the firm.
