Jennifer Lawrence’s Reaction to a Photographer Touching Her Dog Has the Internet Freaking Out
Jennifer Lawrence is arguably just as famous for her outspokenness as she is for her acting. While her candid nature has drawn both praise and criticism from fans, a recent run-in with the paparazzi has left them somewhere in the middle.
The situation arose when a number of photogs gathered to wait for the Passengers star at the airport. A TMZ reporter inquired about a recent scary airplane situation, in which the aircraft she was aboard had to make an emergency landing for double engine failure. While waiting for a response, he reached down to pet the star’s traveling companion — her dog Pipi. While Lawrence didn’t respond to his question, her reaction to his dog-petting was swift, scooping up her pup while saying, “Don’t touch my dog, you f*cking loser!”

Needless to say, the internet had some *feelings.* Some felt that the photog was out of line for touching her pooch without permission…

Not everyone’s on team JLaw, though. Some found the 26-year-old’s reaction downright rude.
OMG!! My feelings have change about her after that. Wow!
