Baby Spice 2.0

Actress Emma Stone (real name Emily Jean Stone) has revealed the inspiration behind her stage name, and all Spice Girls fans will be able to relate.

Appearing on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon the famous red-head revealed she used to be a blonde, and when it came to choosing her current moniker, she named herself after her favourite Spice Girl, Emma ‘Baby Spice’ Bunton.

The Maniac actress told the hilarious story to talk show host Jimmy Fallon, before playing a Buzzfeed quiz to find out what Spice Girl member Emma Stone actually is (hint: it wasn’t Baby), “Growing up, I was super blonde, and my real name is Emily, but I wanted to be called Emma because of Baby Spice. And guess what? Now I am.”

The Spice Girls influence truly knows no bounds.
