What Happened When Jennifer Lawrence Got Drunk In Budapest

Academy Award-winner Jennifer Lawrence recently sat down for an amusing late-night interview with Seth Meyers.

The wild story came after Jennifer Lawrence had been talking about other goofy personal drinking tales. For example, Lawrence said she once spiked Michelle Pfeiffer's iced tea on the set of mother!. Unfortunately, Lawrence didn't explain that particular story in full. She got worried her alcohol-related stories were painting her in the wrong light, so she sidestepped the details of that anecdote and suggested she still a little hungover from the mother! premiere. Watch the witty banter:

Jennifer Lawrence's schedule might be busy, but she evidently is fitting some relaxation into her agenda. Still, as Seth Meyers hinted, you might not want to mess with Lawrence if you ever catch her kicking back with drinks at a pub.
