- Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone are two of Hollywood's biggest names and they also happen to be best friends.
- Lawrence and Stone have shared a few memories together, but their friendship began in a surprisingly quirky way.
- They both had the same "stalker" who texted them by accident.
- So when they decided to meet up, Stone said Lawrence called her beforehand to ensure she was not actually their "stalker" in disguise.
On paper, it just seems as though Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence are cosmically destined to get along. They're both talented actresses with big senses of humor and honest, open tendencies who made their big breaks and hit their strides over the last few years.
The pair have been friends for a while and they previously told Vanity Fair that they got each other's numbers from mutual co-star Woody Harrelson, but when they finally decided to meet in person, things got real. Spoiler: it sounds as though it could have been a potential episode of "Catfish."
"Jennifer Lawrence and I both had the same stalker, John the Orchestra Guy," Stone told W magazine. "He would text us both and say things like 'I'm running late on my way to the soundstage. Can you warm up the orchestra for me? Text me back and let me know you got this.' He wasn't really a stalker. He must have worked at a studio or something because he had a lot of people's numbers."
Eventually, Lawrence and Stone decided to meet up after a few years of dealing with John the Orchestra guy, but there was just one problem.
"Jen and I texted for a year before we actually met. As she was driving to my house, she thought, Oh, my God, what if it's John the Orchestra Guy? And I thought, Oh, my God, what if it's John the Orchestra Guy?" Stone said. "So Jen calls me and says, 'I just want to make sure you're not John the Orchestra Guy.' I wasn't. And we met. It's our adorable love story."
Since that fateful night, these two have been spotted everywhere from grabbing dinner with Adele to hitting the red carpet.
Stone and Lawrence sat down with W in honor of their performances in "Battle Of The Sexes" and "Mother!" respectively.
