Jennifer Lawrence Drank Her Way Through Chris Pratt Sex Scenes

You know that old urban legend of Hollywood stars who hate each other forcing down loads of garlicky meals before doing kissing scenes so as to make their co-star wretch?

Well, there seems to be a new tactic in town for those wary that they might be too full on with their co-star: alcohol!

Jennifer Lawrence has explained to The Hollywood Reporter, when shooting scenes with Chris Pratt for upcoming film Passengers, she had a few tipples, so that she didn’t feel too guilty about getting steamy with a married man.

‘I got really, really drunk. But then that led to more anxiety when I got home because I was like, “What have I done? I don’t know.”

‘And he was married. And it was going to be my first time kissing a married man, and guilt is the worst feeling in your stomach. And I knew it was my job, but I couldn’t tell my stomach that. So I called my mom, and I was like, “Will you just tell me it’s OK?” It was just very vulnerable.’

And she went on to explain how she didn’t know how far to push the sex scene into reality. ‘And you don’t know what’s too much. You want to do it real, you want everything to be real, but then... That was the most vulnerable I’ve ever been.

‘It was weird. And everything was done right; nobody did anything wrong. It’s just a bizarre experience.’

No word on how weirded out Chris was by the sex scene. But perhaps his biggest quandary was having to deal with Jennifer’s booze-breath…
