Awks! JLaw got ‘really, really drunk’ for her sex scene with Chris Pratt
Jennifer Lawrence has decided to gift us all with a lovely little story about filming her very first sex scene.
Spoiler: it did not go well.
In a roundtable interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she chatted with fellow Oscar contenders about how "bizarre" the experience can be and how it left her drunk dialling her mom for moral support. As one does.
Jennifer filmed the scene with co-star Chris Pratt for the film Passengers/ She said she "got really, really drunk" to try and deal with the awkwardness. Also of note, Christ Pratt is married to Anna Faris and this apparently did not help the situation.
"It was going to be my first time kissing a married man, and guilt is the worst feeling in your stomach," she said.
"So I called my mom, and I was like, 'Will you just tell me it's OK?' It was just very vulnerable. […] That was the most vulnerable I've ever been."
The roundtable also included Carey Mulligan, Cate Blanchett, Kate Winslet, Jane Fonda, Helen Mirren, Brie Larson, and Charlotte Rampling.
They all talked about the gender pay gap in Hollywood and the challenge in finding good roles for women.
Helen responded to Jennifer's recent Lenny op-ed about experiencing the pay gap herself. "We've got to stop being polite," Helen said. "If I ever had children, which I don't, the first thing I'd teach a girl of mine is the words 'f**k off.'"
