After Emma Stone’s third hosting gig on Saturday Night Live, it looks like the actress walked away with a new man — sort of. Stone may not have officially started dating Dave McCary on the spot, but according to People, she did meet the SNL writer and segment director in December of 2016 when she hosted the show and starred in a sketch directed by McCary called “Wells for Boys.”
Stone is somewhat of an SNL frequent. According to Entertainment Weekly, the actress hosted in 2010, 2011 and 2016. She also made numerous appearances, included a drop-in when her then-boyfriend Andrew Garfield hosted in 2014. Regardless, she admitted that she was still pretty nervous coming back around to host in the wake of the 2016 election.
“The timing is crazy,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “But I’m just gonna go along for the ride. When I talk to people who are hosting SNL for the first time, they’re always like, ‘I have so many ideas!’ And I tell them, ‘That’s cool that you have so many ideas, but unless you’re a hardcore stand-up comedian, they’ve got it covered.'”
Timing is crazy indeed. If she never hosted, she may have never met McCary, and from the looks of it, she really respects his work. If that’s not the foundation for a great relationship, what is?
