Jennifer Lawrence told Seth Meyers, to his face, that she used to have a crush on him years ago and was once on the verge of asking him out, because she didn’t know that he was engaged.
25 year old Lawrence appeared on ‘Late Night’ on NBC on Tuesday night (December 15th), and made a few eyebrow-raising revelations about her celebrity crushes, which included the show’s presenter himself. In early 2013, when he was the head writer at ‘Saturday Night Live’, Lawrence guest-hosted the show and was hoping to get his number, before a costume fitter informed her that Meyers was already spoken for.
Jennifer Lawrence told ‘Late Night’ host Seth Meyers she used to have a crush on him
“You probably know this by now because I’ve told everybody at NBC. Years ago, I did ‘SNL’. You were working there. I don’t know what you did. I had a really big crush on you, and so I had this whole plan. All week I was like, ‘He’s going to ask me out. He’s totally going to ask me out’,” the Hunger Games star revealed.
“Then later in the week I was like, ‘I’m going to ask him out.’ I had created the romance in my head because I’m delusional. And so I was like, ‘OK, you know what? I’m doing it. I’m doing it!’”

Lawrence told 41 year old Meyers, who is expecting his first child with his wife Alexi Ashe: “Thank God I talked to the wardrobe lady and I was like, ‘I think I’m going to ask Seth Meyers out. I’m going to give him my number.’ She was like, ‘Honey, he’s engaged.’ I was like, ‘Cool! Good talk!’ Ah!’ It was so long ago that now I feel like I could tell you.”
Meyers coped pretty well with the revelation, as the two playfully bantered back and forth and how everything had worked out. “’I’m happier without you,’” Lawrence said with a smile. “My wife would contend you probably are,” he replied wryly.
Lawrence then admitted another celeb crush: “I gave Larry David my number. He never called me. I texted Amy Schumer the other night,” she added, mentioning her famous BFF. “I wrote to her as I was randomly watching ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ and I said, ‘I have so many sexual and boyfriend/marriage feelings for Larry David. I feel like I’m going to be sick.’”
