Emma has had a very good year and she knows her breakout role in Superbad deserves a lot of the credit.
In the new issue of Vanity Fair, Emma explains how she dropped out of high school to move to L.A. and pursue her dream of acting.
Emma enrolled in online classes and worked part-time at a dog bakery.
“I think three people called my specific cookies inedible to their dogs,” Emma said with a laugh. “I’m not a super-talented dog baker.”
But things turned around when she landed Superbad.
“I did Superbad in what would’ve been my senior year,” she says. “I was playing a senior, and had I graduated I would’ve missed that opportunity, and had I missed that opportunity I wouldn’t be here right now.”
