We do strange things when we are extremely nervous about something. Jennifer Lawrence tripped on the stairs on her way to collect an Oscar for her work in "Silver Linings Playbook" in 2013, when she won the award for "Best Actress." That same photo then became popular on the internet.
Well, this is one of Lawrence's most well-known moments, and the Red Sparrow actress graciously stood up and accepted the award with a brilliant smile.
Jennifer Lawrence was nominated for an Oscar in the ‘Best Actress' category for her work in ‘Silver Linings Playbook' in 2013. Bradley Cooper also appeared in the film, and their chemistry was definitely hot.
Lawrence's trepidation is understandable given that this was his first Academy Award.
Jennifer Lawrence commented about her iconic tripping moment on the stairs during the Oscars in a podcast titled "Absolutely Not" in 2020, saying, “They call my name and I’m elated and in shock. You kind of blackout.”
The Red Sparrow actress continued and added, “I actually don’t remember what that moment felt like when they said my name, and then I fell and it just erased everything from my mind. My full brain went blank. I can look back at it now that I’m a little bit older fondly, but for a very long time the fall thing was very sensitive.”
Jennifer Lawrence was greeted with a standing ovation when she arrived on stage. Acknowledging the same, the beauty said, “You’re only standing up because I fell on the stairs. I feel so embarrassed.”
When reporters asked Lawrence backstage if she had purposefully fell on the stairs, she said, "Absolutely," and added, “What do you mean, what happened? Look at my dress. I tried to walk up the stairs in this dress. They wax the stairs.”
