In a notable entertainment event, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson participated in Vanity Fair’s renowned lie detector test. The duo engaged in discussions on various topics, including their experiences with reality television and their respective careers in the film industry, notably the prestigious Academy Awards.
Lawrence expressed her excitement for the occasion. During the session, she shared with hosts Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers that she had specifically requested to be teamed with Pattinson for this challenge. As the test began, Pattinson appeared anxious, visibly fidgeting as he prepared to answer Lawrence’s probing questions.
Questioning the past and aspirations
Lawrence quickly delved into Pattinson’s past, humorously questioning his earlier aspiration to become a rapper, referencing his quirky desire to be known as Big Tub. Pattinson, smiling sheepishly, acknowledged that his rap ambitions were likely best left behind and mentioned he had not yet discussed his musical aspirations with fellow actor and rapper Timothée Chalamet.
On Oscars and rivalry
Transitioning to a more serious topic, Lawrence inquired about Pattinson’s feelings regarding her Oscar win. After a brief pause, he diplomatically replied, “I’m not envious of your particular award. I’m genuinely happy for you.” His response reflected graciousness, emphasizing he would not want to overshadow her achievement.
As the conversation progressed, Pattinson humorously stated he would consider reprising his role in Twilight to compete for roles against younger actors, claiming to be part of Generation Z. Lawrence corrected him, pointing out his actual age as a 39-year-old millennial, yet Pattinson playfully insisted that age is merely a state of mind.
Lawrence steps into the spotlight
With the roles reversed, Lawrence found herself in the lie detector chair. She expressed surprise at how frequently she fabricates stories during interviews, admitting, “I never realized how much I lie!” Despite this acknowledgment, she confidently claimed that people generally dislike her, quipping, “I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t.”
Best friends and Oscar envy
In a candid moment, Lawrence spoke about her close friendship with Emma Stone, referring to her as her best friend. The two actresses are reportedly collaborating on an upcoming Miss Piggy movie, generating excitement among fans. However, Lawrence admitted to feeling a hint of jealousy over Stone’s two Oscar wins compared to her own single award, showcasing her admiration for her friend’s accomplishments. “You deserve many,” she remarked to Pattinson, clearly recognizing his talent.
Reality TV opinions and playful banter
As a fan of reality television, Lawrence openly shared her opinions about the Kardashian family. While she admitted to being behind on The Kardashians, she did not hold back her critiques, particularly regarding Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian. Lawrence playfully remarked about Kourtney, saying, “She’s more annoying than ever. Everything is an announcement! Just wear what you want without making a big deal about it.”
In a humorous moment, Lawrence appeared to evade detection during the lie test when Pattinson asked if she believed The Hunger Games was superior to Twilight. With a straight face, she responded “No,” leading the polygraph analyst to affirm her honesty. Lawrence quipped, “Breaking news: This machine is broken!” reinforcing the lighthearted nature of the session. It is widely acknowledged that Katniss Everdeen could outshine Edward Cullen any day.
As the lie detector test concluded, both actors entertained viewers with their witty exchanges and candid revelations. Their evident chemistry and humor provided an engaging viewing experience, offering insights into their lives beyond the film industry.
