NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Five-time 'Saturday Night Live' host Emma Stone strolled the red carpet with her husband Dave McCary ahead of the 'SNL50' anniversary celebration, and it appeared she brought munchies for the show.

The 36-year-old Oscar-winning actress wore a rouge-colored, halter-necked dress with peplum pockets stuffed with popcorn when she walked the red carpet for 'SNL50: The Anniversary Special' on Sunday, February 16.

The 'Poor Things' actress wore a custom red, floor-length Louis Vuitton gown with two pockets full of popcorn as she posed for photographers and munched on the snack.

Emma Stone also brought along a small container of popcorn for snacks during the evening just in case. The dress included a front slit, and Stone showed off her dark, vampire pedicure while walking about in matching open-toe red satin shoes.

Stone's newly cut pixie cut, which she debuted at the Golden Globes in January, went well with her cheeky appearance. Her spouse of more than four years, Dave McCary, joined her on the red carpet.

Stone looked stunning while wearing a full makeup look that comprised deep pink matte lipstick and fluttery eyelashes. The fashionista also wore a set of four-pointed geometric hoop earrings.

The Oscar-winning actress gave the step-and-repeat her all, leaving a trail of popcorn in her wake. McCary, whom she married in September 2020, was wearing a sleek black suit, white shirt, and black bowtie.

The 'SNL50: The Anniversary Special' came after Friday's 50th Anniversary Homecoming Concert, which included performances by Lady Gaga, Arcade Fire, Bad Bunny, and other artists, per Daily Mail.

Stone and McCary, 39, arrived to mark the 1975 debut of the sketch comedy show, which was celebrated with a three-hour special on NBC.

Billy Murray, Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Amy Poehler, Chevy Chase, Jimmy Fallon, and many other mainstays of 'Saturday Night Live' were back at Studio 8H for the live show.

The show also features Stone and McCary's own love story. Stone, who hosted 'SNL' in December 2024, and McCary first met in 2016 when Stone appeared in the comedy 'Wells for Boys', directed by McCary, per People.

Emma Stone's dress with two pockets filled with popcorn did not sit well with social media users as many felt she only created a "mess" on the red carpet.
