Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone and Ben Affleck might be big names in Hollywood but like many kids they have mothers who have embarrassed them. The stars recently talked about their most embarrassing mommy moments during an awards night at the "The Graham Norton" talk show and their stories are pretty hilarious.
Gosling said when his mom, Donna, joined him at an awards show once, she had this big beehive hairstyle that distracted other Hollywood stars seated in the audience. The "La La Land" actor shared that his mom got the idea to fix her hair this way from friends, which turned out to be a disaster.
So, he asked Meryl Streep to compliment her mother's hairstyle just to appease Donna. Thankfully, the actress was game and told Donna she would've gotten a beehive herself.
Gosling is very close to his mother who divorced from his dad when he was only 13-years-old. In 2012, Donna finally earned her degree in Education and the actor cheered for her during her graduation, Gawker reports.
Gosling's "La La Land" co-star, Stone, on the other hand, also had her mother, Krista, with her at an awards show, where she started to chat with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. The embarrassing thing was Krista pretended she knew nothing of the famous couple's lives despite their being constantly in the news.
"She was just asking multiple questions, like if they had kids," Stone revealed, according to Entertainment Weekly. Krista appeared to act surprised when the Jolie-Pitts talked about their six children. "[But] she knew everything," the actress said.
In 2016, Stone revealed that her mother is a breast cancer survivor. The actress was only 19-years-old and still charting a career in Hollywood when Krista got the diagnosis. Her mother praised her for taking good care of her, according to People.
Meanwhile, Affleck dished that when his mother, Christine, was with him during an awards show early in his career, she relentlessly took photos of the stars. The only problem was they were photos of name placards usually marking the actors' seats.
"My mom was obsessed by that, and went around taking pictures...like, you do know that's not the real Jack Nicholson?" Affleck shared. Watch Gosling, Stone and Affleck talk about their moms' most embarrassing moments in the video below.
