Jennifer Lawrence pulls a Kristin Stewart

[OriginalGeek]

She fell on her way up to get her Best Actress Oscar.

She just tripped on her dress though and handled it gracefully. SHe wasn;t drunk or nhin'. lol, I don't mean to be mean - I was just teasin her a little....

1. Oh, she was genuinely overwhelmed by the award.

But, yes, she and Stewart do have something in common with their gaffes.

She did slightly better than the last time when she momentarily lost part of her dress:

4. I thought she fell.

I didn't see any booboo.

2. She handled it very well

She didn't even look like she was struggling that much to get back up. She's lucky it was't more of a splatter.

5. Welcome to DU, R B Garr!

Glad you're here! In past years, there were always tuxedoed men waiting at the top of the platform to escort ladies safely up the steps. They'd always arrive and extend a hand toward the approaching woman before she started up to the stage. They needed that tonight.

6. Definitely need escorts for the whole walk - especially when the stage is several steps up. n/t

7. Thank you, calimary!

Thank you for the welcome and kind words. I'm glad I'm here too! This site is the best news source around and the commenters are pretty sharp as well.

3. There was simply too much dress there. It overwhelmed her. n/t

8. Stuff happens.

I like that young lady. I think she's personable, talented, and not full of herself. If tripping on a stair with a gown that size is the greatest sin against society she commits in her life time, she will have lived well. Kudos to her for her award and her grace.

9. I agree with you on all points.

I've seen her a few times on late night interview shows too and she is always utterly charming. I can't even remember anything specific she said but I remember coming away from the interview with a feeling that she seems to have her stuff together.

10. Now if only Kristin Stewart could do a Jennifer Lawrence in terms of knowing how to act. nt

11. lol, I was thinking something along those lines as well

I don't hate her but she does seem to grunt and grimace and pout a lot (in the only things I've seen her in which was 1 and half of the twilight movies) in lieu of acting.

Also, I have seen her on talk shows too and I did not come away with the same impression of her as I did Ms. Lawrence.

12. Her bank account scoffs at such a silly idea.
