But hours after igniting ire for her ‘rude and discourteous’ exchange with the ceremony’s host Joanna Lumley, Jennifer Lawrence was up and hitting the streets of London on Monday morning, as she prepared for a busy day of appointments.
As handlers shielded her under umbrellas, the Oscar-winning actress, 27, stepped out onto the rain-soaked capital’s streets in patterned black palazzo pants and a black coat, under which she wore a T-shirt emblazoned with the words ‘Oh My Yes’.
