Jennifer Lawrence is one of the most well-known actresses in the world. Having starred in both action film franchises and independent drams, her movies have grossed over $6 billion worldwide. However, despite being one of the most famous actresses in the world, she was once left in a rather embarrassing situation in front of Jennifer Lopez. 

Lopez herself needs no introduction, she is a renowned actress and a singer. Having a worldwide fan following, the actress can certainly make anyone feel like a fan, even Jennifer Lawrence.

Jennifer Lawrence recalls asking Jennifer Lopez for a dance

Back in 2014, Jennifer Lawrence revealed that she was left embarrassed in front of Jennifer Lipez at a party. During her appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, Lawrence spoke about how she and Fallon decided to ask Lopez to dance with them at the event.

However, Jimmy Fallon decided to ditch the plan. While narrating the story, she said:

“So we were dancing and we saw J.Lo and were like, ‘Well, we gotta get J. Lo to dance!’ So I was like, ‘We’ll do a spin, and then we’ll go, ‘Dance with us!’ Like together and then…basically, I do it and I look and he’s gone and it’s just me looking at J. Lo going, “Dance with me’.”

Interestingly, the lead role that was played by Jennifer Lawrence was being considered by several other actresses as well. Speaking about the same, Emma Roberts revealed that she almost got the role ahead of Lawrence. She had this to say to MTV:

“I was definitely interested in it, but it was just one of those things that didn’t end up happening, But I’m really excited to see the movie. I read all the books a couple of weeks ago and I’ve got all my friends hooked, so it’s totally cool and I can’t wait to see it.”

While it was certainly a golden opportunity that was swift away from Emma Roberts, Jennifer Lawrence made full use of the opportunity and it’s safe to say that the role was deserved by her.
