Emma Stone couldn't contain her excitement -- or four-letter words -- when reacting to the news of her first-ever Oscar nomination, for "Birdman," on Thursday morning.

The Best Supporting Actress nominee released a statement in recognition of the honor, and couldn't help but unleash some of her signature personality (and profanity) that we've grown to know and love. The statement started rote enough before veering off into "awesome" territory.

"Well this is surreal," Stone's statement said. "I am completely knocked out. Thank you to the Academy for this incredible honor. I am very proud and lucky to be part of 'Birdman' and I can't believe it came to this. I am so f––ing excited. Are you allowed to say 'f––' when making a statement for the Oscars? I'm just really f––ing excited."

As far as the F-word goes, we think an Academy Award nominee is allowed to say whatever she pleases. Swear away, Emma, and stay awesome.
