Larry David Was Jennifer Lawrence’s Crush

Jennifer Lawrence, a Hollywood actress, is one of the most promising stars in the entertainment world. Not just because of her excellent acting abilities, but also because of the stories about her life outside of the camera. The actress, however, has never backed off from her emotional statements.

“I gave Larry David my number, but he never called me. But he also might have been married! I don’t know. Apparently I don’t ask about these things. I’m so not that girl… I would never go after another woman’s man. I always forget about Step 1: Find out if he already has a wife. I get so carried away and go into the delusion of like, ‘Oh, my god! We’re in love!’”

The 75-year-old actor, writer, and comedian informed Meyers:

“She sat here and she said she had a crush on you and she also said she had a crush on me. When you heard that she had a crush on me as well, you seemed quite displeased that we were lumped together, as if that detracted from the ego trip that you were on.”

Actually, the Red Sparrow actress also admitted to having a crush on Meyers, which for David seemed to invalidate his crush.

“I’m not gonna lie, it would have been better if it was just me. When she said you, I too was disappointed.”

“To me, it takes away from the crush if she’s mentioning other people. How special is it then for me? It’s not that special. You got a crush on me? You got a crush on him? No good. I want the big crush.”

Oh well, it was a long time ago and now both prominent celebrities have moved on and found new love.
