Jennifer Lawrence Confronted Anderson Cooper For His Remarks

The star of Silver Linings Playbook expressed her disappointment at Anderson Cooper’s suggestion that the fall was intentional.
“I saw him on CNN three days [after the Oscars] saying, ‘Well, she obviously faked the fall,'” she said. “It was so devastating because it was this horrific humiliation to me. 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.”
Recounting the incident, the American Hustle actress shared how she took the opportunity to approach Cooper at a holiday party and express her thoughts directly.
“My friend told me a vein was bulging out of my eyes. He apologized. I think we’re good friends now,” Lawrence said. “On my end, we’re all good. What I led with was, ‘Have you ever tried to walk up stairs in a ball gown? So then how do you know?’ He apologized immediately and said he didn’t know and gave this wonderful apology. I was all fired up … He probably told everyone I was a psycho.”
Well, standing up for herself doesn’t make her a psycho after all.
