Jennifer Lawrence Was Asked About Her 2013 Oscars Fall Again, And Her Response Is Kinda Heartbreaking

Discussing her 2013 fall a few years ago, Jennifer confessed that it was “devastating” when people accused her of pulling a publicity stunt.

“I was very nervous and also very superstitious,” she recalled of her winning night during a 2020 podcast appearance. “I didn’t want to acknowledge the possibility that I would win. I didn’t want to write down a speech.”

“All of the adrenaline clears out and they call my name and I’m elated and I’m in shock. And then I fell, and it erased everything from my mind,” she remembered. “Anderson Cooper, I saw him on CNN three days later saying: ‘Well she obviously faked the fall,’ and it was so devastating because it was this horrific humiliation to me.”

She continued: “I don’t know if I’ll ever have a chance to give a speech like that again, so it didn’t feel good for me not to have a speech.”
