Jennifer Lawrence Opens Up About Hosting 'SNL'
In a recent episode of “Las Culturistas,” Jennifer Lawrence shared candid insights about her experience with hosting Saturday Night Live (SNL) and other personal anecdotes. The episode featured co-host Bowen Yang, which brought some notable moments related to SNL.
Producing Projects and Personal Confessions
- Lawrence revealed she and Emma Stone are producing a Miss Piggy movie.
- She mentioned not needing an intimacy coordinator with Robert Pattinson because he is “not pervy.”
- Lawrence regretted not getting Botox prior to filming No Hard Feelings.
- She compared the Boleyn sisters to Ashlee and Jessica Simpson in a surprising analogy.
Anecdotes About SNL and Song Pitching
Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang, friends of former SNL writer Sudi Green, shared a clever tactic used to shut down persistent strangers pitching sketch ideas:
“Even if we did take your idea, it would be a huge legal problem because the waiter could sue us later.”
This line usually ends the conversation quickly.
Lawrence also admitted that when she met musician Mark Ronson, she impulsively pitched him a song about a street sweeper and even began singing it, recalling:
“I don’t know what I was expecting, but he was just like, ‘Nice to meet you.’”
Hosting SNL and Self-Critique
Bowen Yang praised Lawrence's hosting of SNL back in 2013, but she was very self-critical:
“No, I wasn’t [great],” Lawrence said.
She described the episode as not good, though she did not take blame for its quality.
