Jennifer Lawrence asks people if they know who Jennifer Lawrence is

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Being put on the spot, and then asked to rattle off a list of films starring a specific actor, can sometimes evolve into a frustrating exercise – especially when the interviewer is the actor in question. Recently, while serving as a guest host on Friday's Jimmy Kimmel Live, Jennifer Lawrence took to the busy street os LA, where she challenged random strangers to name five Jennifer Lawrence movies.

As you can imagine, the result is an awkwardly hilarious exercise in memory as well as humility for the Academy Award-winning actress. When introducing and psyching herself up for the skit, Lawrence told her audience that the point of if was to put people "on the spot and humiliate herself." Personally, that's the kind of moxie I like in a young actress. 

Next, Jennifer Lawrence will be recruited as Ballerina Dominika Egorova  for Francis Lawrence's RED SPARROW opening in theaters on March 2, 2018.
