Jennifer Lawrence on ‘SNL’: The ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ star trashes her Oscar rivals


Lawrence calls out Streep again, but this time also goes after Quvenzhane Wallis, Jessica Chastain and others competing for the Best Actress Oscar.

Continuing her week in the spotlight, Jennifer Lawrence tried her hand at hosting "Saturday Night Live," and the comedic odds were certainly in her favor.

The quirky "Silver Linings Playbook" starlet began her opening monologue addressing the Meryl Streep comment once again, but also playfully bashed all of the other Oscar contenders in her category.

"I would never trash-talk any of my fellow nominees at the Golden Globes," she said, "but the Oscars are another story."

"Well, well, well. Look who it is," she said. "Jessica Chastain. More like, Jessica Chas-ain’t winning no Oscar on my watch!"

And on Naomi Watts, she added, "You were in 'The Impossible'. You know what else is impossible? You beating me on Oscar night.”

Even little Quvenzhane Wallis wasn't spared.

"You think you can beat me?" she joked. "What you talkin' bout, Wallis? ... The alphabet called. They want their letters back."

Lawrence went on to participate in several hilarious skits, including a spoof of her own movie "The Hunger Games," reprising her role as Katniss Everdeen.
