Jennifer Lawrence has no time for your bullshit selfies.
In an interview with Variety, Lawrence explained that she becomes “incredibly rude” when she enters public. “I turn into a huge assole,” Lawrence said. “That’s my only way of defending myself.”
I can’t even blame her. I become an asshole in public as well and no one is coming up to me asking me for an autograph or a picture or my phone number. People in public just suck.
Lawrence, who was doing the interview with Adam Sandler for some reason, said that comedians are easier to deal with in public. “(People) just assume they’re your best friend,” said Lawrence.
Sandler agreed with that notion. Comedies should cease to exist so these guys don’t have to be “on” 24/7. Let’s just turn everything into a drama. We’re pretty much going down that path anyway.
So, how does Sandler get out of taking pictures with fans? He uses a Jedi mind trick.
“They go, ‘Hey Adam, could I get a picture?’ And I always say, ‘You don’t want that, man.’ And the guy goes, ‘What?’ And I go, ‘You don’t want that.’ And then he’s like, ‘Yeah, yeah. I don’t.’”
It’s not surprising that Adam Sandler fans would be dumb enough to fall for this. Sandler went on to say that he loves meeting with people now that he’s older. He’s probably grateful for any fan he still has after Grown Ups.
Lawrence and Sandler aren’t promoting an upcoming movie or anything. They just sat down for Variety’s “Actors on Actors” series, which appears to be a thing where producers pull two names out of a hat and decide, “Let’s have them interview each other.”
That’s also how Sandler picks who will co-star in his next movie with him. Except, every name in the hat is Rob Schneider or Kevin James.
