Jennifer Lawrence flips off reporters: Actress lets loose

Jennifer Lawrence flips off reporters in the press room at the Oscar's after winning the award for "Best Actress" for her role in "Silver Linings Playbook." On Feb. 25, Mail Online posted a picture of Lawrence playfully giving the middle finger to the slew of reporters and photographers who were working the event.

"Lawrence, who plays a troubled young widow in David O Russell's 'Silver Linings Playbook', twisted her face, and with a perfectly manicured hand, flashed her middle finger with the right, and kept a tight grip on her Oscar with the left," Mail Online reported.

Jennifer Lawrence flips off reporters for no particular reason -- it seems as though she was just having some fun. Naturally she was quite embarrassed after tripping while going up the stairs to accept her award. She could have been getting out some of those jitters and just letting loose a little.

"Backstage in the press room, when a reporter asked what she was thinking, she responded: 'A bad word that I can't say that starts with F,'" Mail Online reported. Although she is a role model to a lot of young girls, no one is really holding her middle finger flip against her -- and they shouldn't.
