High school student Jacob Staudenmaier became one of the most annoying people on the Internet when he released a “prom-posal” video asking Emma Stone to accompany him to prom.

Super keen Jacob recreated the opening scene from La La Land with help from about 20 people:
IM ASKING EMMA STONE TO PROM, and decided to recreate the opening scene from la la land @RyanGosling @LaLaLand @johnjayandrich #prom pic.twitter.com/l28R2rv3I7

Unfortunately for Jacob, Emma Stone had about a billion better things to do. Although she did let him down gently:
Jacob, thanks for making the greatest proposal I have ever received. I can’t tell you what an honor that was and how much I smiled through that entire beautifully orchestrated video. I’m in London working, but I hope you have the best time at prom, and I’m grateful you thought of me.
Thank you.
P.S. I do see Gosling around the eyes. Love, Emma.
How did Jacob deal with the rejection? By going stag mode:
I’m going to have a great time with all my friends.
Good luck to him, although I feel Emma Stone would have 100% accepted if only he had re-enacted this scene instead of La La Land:
