People are Angry at Jennifer Lawrence for Being Insensitive to Hawaiian Culture
Jennifer Lawrence appeared on The Graham Norton show this week, and she retold the story of that time she scratched her butt on culturally sacred rocks in Hawaii and almost killed the sound guy on The Hunger Games when one of the rocks rolled away.
Lawrence said “All the Hawaiians were like, ‘Oh my God, it’s the curse!’ And I’m in the corner, going, ‘I’m your curse. I wedged it loose with my ass.”
People on Twitter are not happy, and have been sounding off on Lawrence for being insensitive.

Jennifer Lawrence saying how she scratched her ass on sacred boulders you aren’t supposed to sit on in Hawaii is white ppl in a nutshell

Another reason Jennifer Lawrence is so annoying. Knowingly messes with something sacred to Hawiians. Then brags and makes a joke about it. https://t.co/EB6VFz0JzN
