She is known for taking a serious line on politics, privacy and most things in between.
But Jennifer Lawrence admitted she has a soft spot for reality TV, in particular the British-made Don’t Tell The Bride, which she calls ‘the best reality show ever’.
Oscar-winning actress, 38, revealed her love for the series which sees couples get funding for their wedding, on the condition that the groom organises everything.
Downtime: Jennifer Lawrence, 38, has admitted she has a soft spot for reality TV, in particular the British-made Don’t Tell The Bride, which she calls ‘the best reality show ever’
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter during The Actress Roundtable, she confessed: ‘You guys [in the UK] have the best reality show ever: Don’t Tell The Bride.
‘Sometimes it’s great and romantic and like, “Oh, these colours are horrible, but thank you, honey.” And then sometimes, they break up over it. One woman was like, “Not Vegas. Not Vegas. Not Vegas.” Guess what? It was Vegas. And he didn’t invite her sister.’
‘I had to defend myself to Woody Harrelson. He came into my trailer and was like, “Are you really going to watch this garbage?” And here’s what I have to say about the garbage: You’re watching interpersonal relationships that are real. As far as I can see, they’re real.’

It comes after Jennifer clarified her recent claim that she was the first-ever woman to be cast as the lead of an action movie despite the likes of Sigourney Weaver and Angelina Jolie heading franchises long before her.
In a statement to THR, the Academy Award-winner said her remark ‘came out wrong’ and that meant to express how ‘good it feels’ to be feminine force in a male dominated genre.
‘That’s certainly not what I meant to say at all. I know that I am not the only woman who has ever led an action film,’ began Jennifer, who famously played female protagonist Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games (2012).

‘What I meant to emphasize was how good it feels. And I meant that with Viola [Davis] — to blow past these old myths that you hear about … about the chatter that you would hear around that kind of thing.
‘But it was my blunder and it came out wrong. I had nerves talking to a living legend,’ Jennifer concluded.
She originally made the bizarre claim during a sit-down with fellow Oscar winner Viola Davis as part of Variety’s Actors on Actors series, which was released earlier this week.
The mother-of-one, who went on to play Katniss in four films, revealed that executives were concerned that boys ‘wouldn’t be able to identify’ with a female lead.
