LOS ANGELES—After working more than 11 years at a local family-owned Italian restaurant, actress Emma Stone confirmed Monday she was finally quitting her job waiting tables. “I’m a little nervous—you know, nothing is ever guaranteed in show business—but my fingers are crossed that everything works out for the best,” said the 37-year-old Stone, who told reporters that the encouraging words she had heard from friends about her performance in Yorgos Lanthimos’ Bugonia was just the push she needed to turn in her name tag and waist apron. “I gave my manager my two weeks, so that’s that, I guess. In just half a month, I’ll be pursuing acting full-time. Wow, that’s so crazy to say out loud. I’m a little sad to be leaving this place. I was beyond thankful when [owners] Ralph and Mary [Lowery] let me go down to part-time after my second Oscar. I’ll miss them and all my regulars.” Stone added that if the “whole acting thing” didn’t work out, it was comforting to know she could always fall back on her service industry skills.
