At just 25 years old, she has already established herself as a prominent figure in Hollywood, with noteworthy roles in blockbuster films and even an Academy Award under her belt.
However, it seems that not everyone in the glitzy world of showbiz recognizes Jennifer Lawrence. She recently shared an amusing encounter on The Graham Norton show, where she disclosed being completely ignored by fellow A-Listers Harrison Ford and J.J. Abrams during a night out.
Recounting the incident, the X-Men actress admitted feeling utterly embarrassed as both Ford and Abrams failed to acknowledge her existence. She humorously described her attempt to capture their attention by clumsily dancing in front of them “like an idiot.”
‘I felt so embarrassed that I wanted to disappear’: It seems that not everyone in Hollywood may be familiar with Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence, as she recently shared an awkward encounter with fellow A-Listers Harrison Ford and J.J. Abrams during a night out.
During an appearance on a television show to promote her latest film, X-Men: Age of Apocalypse, Jennifer recounted the incident that took place while she was enjoying a night out with comedian Jack Whitehall.
“I probably humiliated myself more than ever before,” she confessed. “I never assume that anyone knows who I am, but when I spotted Harrison Ford and J.J. Abrams, I thought, ‘It’ll be fine; we’re all colleagues, right?'”
Feeling somewhat confident, she approached them and began dancing like a fool, only to be met with total silence and stares from the entire table. “I quickly realized that they had absolutely no idea who I was, so I just turned around and walked back to Jack, dying of embarrassment.”
Jennifer Lawrence’s encounter with Harrison Ford and J.J. Abrams, where they apparently blanked her, has become a trending topic.
No idea: Discussing her experience on The Graham Norton show, the X-Men actress revealed that she felt incredibly embarrassed when the cast didn’t recognize her while she was dancing in front of them “like a fool.” However, she did mention that Harrison eventually reached out to her, stating: “Later he reached out to me because someone who was 12 years old must have informed him of my identity!” Interestingly, it seems that the famous star, known for his role as Han Solo in Star Wars, had no trouble recognizing the comedian, Jack.
The 27-year-old funnyman chimed in on Jennifer’s story, sharing: “The hilarious part is that I had just worked with Harrison, who is the only A-list Hollywood star I’ve ever met. Jennifer had just been ignored, so I said to myself, ‘Hey, it’s fine, I’ll go and say hi to Harrison,’ and everyone warned me, saying, ‘Jack, don’t do it. It will be embarrassing.'”
“I had a moment of realization while I was on the dance floor, discovering that the people around me were completely unaware of my identity. Feeling a wave of embarrassment wash over me, I decided to gracefully turn around and make my way back to Jack. Needless to say, the encounter was quite awkward.”
“He rose from his seat and called out, ‘Hey, Jack!'” However, it appears that the famous actor, known for his role as Han Solo in Star Wars, had no difficulty recognizing the comedian Jack, who was with Jennifer at the time.
“So, I stood up and walked over, thinking, ‘Oh God, maybe he won’t remember me and I’ll be humiliated too.’ And just as I approached, he stood up and shouted, ‘Hey, Jack!’ It was so funny. It was probably the most enjoyable night of my life, while Jennifer had a different experience!”
Unfortunately for Jennifer, this is not the only time she has embarrassed herself in front of another A-Lister. She also shared an awkward encounter she had with Sandra Bullock.
“I still feel guilty,” she expressed about the encounter. “I should have emailed her and explained, but I didn’t know what to say. We were backstage at the Oscars, where she was presenting, and I said, ‘I love all your work except All About Steve; it was really bad.’ She was gracious about it, but as she walked on stage, I called after her, ‘Don’t suck, Sandy!’ I still have no idea why!”
Currently, the star is busy promoting Bryan Singer’s second X-Men film, in which she portrays the villainous mutant Mystique.
Jennifer will be joining Jack, co-star James McAvoy, Johnny Depp, and Will.i.am on The Graham Norton Show, set to air on BBC One on May 13 at 10:35 pm.
