Emma Stone gave a touching shout-out to her and husband Dave McCary’s toddler daughter, Louise, during her 2024 Oscars acceptance speech at the 96th annual Academy Awards on Sunday night.

“I really just want to thank my family — my mom, my brother Spencer, my dad, my husband Dave. I love you so much. And most importantly, my daughter, who’s going to be three in three days, who has turned our lives technicolor,” Stone, 35, said through tears.

She added, “I love you bigger than the whole sky my girl, so thank you so much.”
