The camera then panned to Stone, who could be seen mouthing “I’m sorry,” seemingly apologizing for her character Allison Ng, who is a quarter Chinese, a quarter Hawaiian and half Swedish.

The audience of course bursted into laughter as Oh held her hand over her heart, reassuring fans she was only joking.

When the film was released in 2015, Stone — as well as Aloha‘s casting agents — received a significant amount of backlash for not properly portraying a character of Asian descent.
