Jennifer Lawrence is the OG of the OGs, and that’s an undebateable fact. As remarkable and serious as she is on the big screen, her personality in real life is the complete opposite as she is more inclined to be true to herself and speak her mind instead of just faking it like most celebs do. In fact, her innocently witty humor has led to the birth of so many comedic stories in Hollywood that fans just can’t help but fall in love with her.
One of these hilarious stories includes when she first met Rachel Zegler, the actress who recently made her debut inThe Hunger Gamesfranchise, which led to Lawrence jokingly wanting to‘strangle’her for a video saying,‘You’ll never take my part!’

Jennifer Lawrencewas one of the original cast for all four movies from theTheHunger Gamesfilm series. Not only was she in the franchise for almost half a decade, but she was also the lead character in all the movies from the action/sci-fi saga.
So for someone who only just joinedThe Hunger Gamesfranchise, meeting Lawrence would be like meeting a legend. And that’s exactly howRachel Zeglerfelt, who made her debut in the saga with the most recent film,The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes.
Appearing onThe Kelly Clarkson Show,the Lucy Gray Baird portrayer opened up about meeting the Katniss Everdeen portrayer. She said:
“I think I’m the only one [from the cast of the prequel film to have met Jennifer Lawrence]. We were at the Paris Fashion Week for the Dior show, only a couple of weeks ago. And I didn’t want to be weird and I was just kind of psyching myself up to talk to her, and she was so unbelievably kind.”
Continuing, she then explained the story behind the photo of her and Lawrence that went viral after she met with the actress.
“In that clip, she’s actually saying, ‘Let’s do another photo where I’m strangling you, saying, “You’ll never take my part!”‘ [Laughs] And that is exactly what I wanted from her.”
Truly, very few comedians must be funnier than Jennifer Lawrence in real life!
