    Jennifer Lawrence wants to do-over of her only time hosting Saturday Night Live

    The 35-year-old actress has admitted her memories of hosting the hit live sketch comedy show back in 2013 are "skewed", and she would love the chance to have another go in different circumstances.


    She told Amy Poehler's Good Hang podcast: "I have to go back and do it again because I had walking pneumonia.

    "I was under a lot of pressure and doing a lot, and I was shooting one of the Hunger Games movies.

    "I was shooting, I think the second one, while doing all of this campaign and I would have to like fly, go to a party, shake hands and then land and shoot... poor me!

    "But I was very tired."

    The Die My Love star insisted she was also at a "bad age" to be put in that position.

    She added: "I remember I was also at that bad age. I don't know if other people were like this at this age, but... you get asked like, can you do any impressions or anything?

    "And I was like, 'No.' I don't want to be like, 'And I can do this and I can do that!'

    "I just kind of made everything like everybody else's problem. I was like, 'I don't know how to do that. I can't do that.' "

    Jennifer joked she would also like to rethink her press tour schedule because of the amount of "insane" quotes that get picked up from her interviews.

    She quipped: "I should do half than what normal people do, because I see my quotes and like... they're insane.

    "Like 'Jennifer Lawrence calls Kourtney Kardashian annoying!' Like it's just too... it carries."

    Jennifer is a huge reality TV fan and loves watching The Kardashians, but in November she admitted she Kourtney "drives her nuts".

    While taking a lie detector with her Die My Love castmate Robert Pattinson for Vanity Fair, she said: "Kourtney is more annoying than ever. She drives me nuts.

    "Because everything has to be an announcement. It's like, you know, 'I'm not going to wear outfits anymore.' Like, just wear whatever you want. Don't make an announcement about it.

    "Or like, 'I don't have a TV in my room.' Like, just don't watch TV. Stop announcing it. Just shhh!"
