The 5 Strangest & Most Talked About Movie Press Tours Of 2023
After taking time out of the spotlight to start a family, Jennifer Lawrence returned to the press tour circuit in 2023, and, she was sorely missed! While promoting her raunchy, surprisingly heartfelt romantic comedy “No Hard Feelings,” Lawrence gave several charming interviews. However, there’s no question that her standout tour moment came courtesy of some hot sauce.
Lawrence joined host Sean Evans on First We Feast’s original YouTube series Hot Ones in June, and like so many celebrities before her, she bravely took on the challenge of eating increasingly spicy chicken wings during their interview. Honestly, she does pretty well for a while … And even mentions that she has a high pain tolerance before she and Evans chow down. But when they eat the eighth wing dressed in “Da Bomb” hot sauce, the facade cracks. By that, we mean she immediately starts crying. She chugs milk and insists that “nothing helps” before screaming: “I feel like I’m [going to] die.” She tosses a bottle of hot sauce onto the ground out of sheer resentment.
Still, the most memeable moment comes with the 10th wing, though. When Evans starts shaking the hot sauce bottle, she lays into him. “What are you doing?” she begs. “What do you mean? What do you mean by shaking it? What do you mean?!” In that moment, a meme was born — and based on Lawrence’s sheer discomfort, it’s no surprise that she threw up after filming.
