How would you ask your parents to support your dream? American actress Emma Stone created a PowerPoint presentation (陈述) to get her parents’ support.

Stone is a rising star in Hollywood. She played the role of Gwen Stacy, Spider-Man’s high school love, in two Spider-Man movies.

The actress said her character was like the girl’s in the film. “Gwen is clear on what she wants to do with her life. I think I am just like her.”

Stone made up her mind to become an actress at the age of 15. But would her parents agree to her leaving school early and realizing her dream? The young girl decided to use the presentation to help her. “I used a lot of computers when I was young, and my dad’s a businessman, so I just thought a presentation is the way to get support,” she said.

The presentation is called Project Hollywood and she used pop singer Madonna’s classic song Hollywood in it, saying “just please let me move to LA to be an actress.”

Her method proved to be a success. In 2004, Stone dropped out of high school and moved with her mother to Los Angeles. She began to study at home after that.

Now Stone is a successful actress with many films to her name. Her next step is to try different things like strange comedies.
