Ryan Gosling's Kenergy was just too much for Stone's custom Louis Vuitton dress.
As Emma Stone picked up her second Academy Award, someone backstage was picking up a needle and thread.
After the Poor Things star won Best Actress at the 96th Academy Awards on Sunday, the 35-year-old revealed she needed an emergency seamstress.
"They sewed me back in," Stone told reporters backstage. "Right when I came back, they sewed me back in, which was wonderful."
"I genuinely do think I busted it during, 'I'm Just Ken,'" the actress added.
"I was so amazed by Ryan and what he was doing, and that number just blew my mind. And I was right there, and I just was going for it, and, you know, things happen."

Ryan Gosling Sings 'I'm Just Ken' at the Oscars and It's a Must-Watch Performance
View StoryAs Stone walked up to accept her second Oscar, she made it very clear to the audience her dress had "broken".
"I think it happened during 'I'm Just Ken,'" she explained, referencing Ryan Gosling's performance of his song from Barbie.
Gosling's performance was one of the (if not the) biggest highlights of the ceremony. He began in the audience, rocking a black cowboy hat, a hot pink suit and matching gloves while singing to Margot Robbie who couldn't control her laughter.
The 43-year-old was then joined by a slew of dancers -- as well as his fellow Kens, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Scott Evans and Ncuti Gatwa, who starred alongside the Oscar-nominated actor in the film.

Emotional Emma Stone Wins Second Oscar of Her Career at Academy Awards
View StoryDespite what Stone said about the Ken-ergy causing her wardrobe malfunction, the custom Louis Vuitton dress didn't look like the most comfortable gown to be sporting.
Prior to the ceremony, Stone was seen needing assistance to hop off a podium following her interview with Vanessa Hudgens.
Stone, previously won an Oscar in the same category for La La Land back in 2017.
She beat out Lily Gladstone -- who was considered the other favorite in the category -- as well as Annette Bening, Sandra Hüller and Carey Mulligan.
"Oh boy, this is really overwhelming," she said, before addressing her fellow nominees and the actresses who presented her the award -- Charlize Theron, Jennifer Lawrence, Sally Field and Jessica Lange. "The women on this stage, you are all incredible and the women in this category, Sandra, Annette, Carey, Lily, I share this with you. It has been such an honor to do all this together."
