SNL Videos: Jennifer Lawrence Roasts Oscar Nominees, Spoofs The Hunger Games And More

Golden Globe winner Jennifer Lawrence followed up last weekend's big win by hosting an episode of Saturday Night Live. The series returned from its winter hiatus on Saturday night and offered a few funny sketches, including a cold open that managed to poke fun at Lance Armstrong, Manti Te'o and Jodie Foster… and also Piers Morgan, kind of.

Jennifer Lawrence's opening monologue acknowledged her "dig" at Meryl Streep during the Golden Globes by roasting her fellow Oscar nominees. Among her funnier sketches, she played a waitress with an attitude, she reprised her role as Katniss Everdeen for a post Games Hunger Games press conference, and she showed us how adorable she looks as a dog for the "Top Dog Chef" sketch.

Not all the sketches were winners - I definitely didn't get the "Danielle" sketch - but overall, Lawrence did a solid job. The musical guest The Lumineers were also pretty fantastic. You'll find their performances on the last page of the videos, but we'll start at the beginning with the cold open and the opening monologue…
