    Before La La Land was mistakenly announced as the winner of Best Picture Oscar, star Emma Stone actually did take home one of the biggest prizes of the night. When she accepted her prize for Best Actress, she gave a sweet shoutout to her costar, Ryan Gosling. "Thank you for making me laugh, and for always raising the bar and for being the greatest partner on this crazy adventure," she said.

    Here's the full transcript of her speech:

    "Thank you so much to the Academy. To the women in this category, Natalie, Isabelle, Meryl, Ruth, you were all so extraordinary and I look up to you and I admire you more than I can put into words. It has been the greatest honor of all to stand along with you.

    To my mom and my dad and my brother, Spencer, and my soul sister, Chrissie, my whole family, I love you so much. Thank you for everything. To Doug Wald who stood by me all these years, Holly and Michelle and Craig and P.J. And Greta and Bob Cooper, thank you so much and I realize that a moment like this is a huge confluence of luck and opportunity and so I want to thank Damien Chazelle for the opportunity to be part of a project that was so special and once in a lifetime. I'm so grateful to have been involved in this film and thank you for your faith and your patience and such a wonderful experience.

    And Ryan Gosling, thank you for making me laugh and for always raising the bar and for being the greatest partner on this crazy adventure. To our whole crew, everyone that put their heart and souls into this film, I -- I'm going to find you all individually, and I'm going to thank you. Along with my friends, who I love so much. I'm going to hug the hell out of you when the feeling re-enters my body. I still have a lot of growing and learning and work to do. And this guy is a really beautiful symbol to continue on that journey and I'm so grateful for that. So thank you so much. Thank you."
