Emma Stone may be a natural blonde, but it wasn’t until she went to the dark side that she started landing mayjah roles.
The Easy A actress explains:
“When I first moved to LA, I had this agent who thought, because I was blonde, that I only wanted to play cheerleaders. So she’d send me out for all these parts where they thought: ‘What a weird 15-year-old. It’s not going to work out!’
I don’t know if anyone necessarily underestimated me as a blonde – I think I just had a crappy agent.
So one day, in a fit of trying to do something different, I just dyed my hair dark brown and got my first role a week later, after which I thought: ‘People are close-minded, man! Like a different hair color changes everything!'”
We have a funny feeling a bunch of yet to be discovered actresses are going to be dying their hair soon.
Ha!
