Jennifer Lawrence Ate ‘Disgusting, Stinky’ Things Before Kissing Liam Hemsworth

Liam Hemsworth has no qualms about informing the world how unpleasant kissing Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 was due to her tuna and garlic breath. JLaw, it appears, did not appreciate that disclosure.

Over the weekend, her Jennifer Lawrence admitted to Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show that she would consume tuna, garlic, and other breath-destroying foods before lip-locking sequences.

Hemsworth, who portrays Gale Hawthorne, said on the late night program, “Any time I had to kiss Jennifer was pretty uncomfortable.”

“When you look at it on the outside it looks like a great picture. She’s one of my best friends. I love her. But if we had a kissing scene, she would make a point of eating garlic or tuna fish or something that was disgusting.”

 

J.Law joked at the Mockingjay LA premiere that she was angry with Liam for bringing up her foul breath, explaining that she wasn’t intending to consume stinky foods in preparation for her Mockingjay makeout scenes.

“Thank you for reminding me that I’m mad at Liam – it made news everywhere. Where is he?” she said, laughing.

She told Access Hollywood, “I was never like, ‘Hey Liam, I just ate tuna and garlic on purpose!’ I just would happen to eat something. I didn’t change the way I was eating for the kissing, which is different than eating something on purpose. Is it worse?!”

The actress went on to say that if she were kissing a more prominent actor, she would go above and beyond to make it pleasant. She alluded to two previous co-stars, for whom she cleaned up before. “I do that when I’m kissing like Christian Bale or like a real [star] — not when it’s like Josh [Hutcherson] and Liam,” she joked. “[For] Bradley Cooper, Christian Bale, yeah, I’ll brush my teeth. I’ll pop a mint.”

While putting a mint in your mouth or chewing gum might help disguise foul breath, getting rid of the odor at its source is a different story. A foolproof way to get rid of garlic breath? To begin, clean your mouth with a special tongue scraper. After that, rinse your mouth with an oxygenating, alcohol-free mouthwash before sucking on a specially made lozenge.
