Since starring as cool Katniss in The Hunger Games, Jennifer Lawrence has rocketed into the realm of super stardom.

I mean, We all know what we’d do if she walked into a room we were in – scream, hyperventilate, rush towards her begging her to sign our bare skin autograph books.

But J-Law has revealed that she finds this side of fame scary, and is sometimes frightened to leave the house because of the attention she gets. Like her Hunger Games character, she says she has nightmares, albeit about crowds rather than being murdered in the fictional arena.

She told* The Mirror*: “I have nightmares all the time that I’m walking through a mall and people start surrounding me and there’s nowhere I can go.

“So sometimes it’s easier to call one of my friends and ask them to pick up some bananas for me.”

And no doubt having her naked photos posted on the internet during the iCloud hacking scandal hasn’t helped.

Poor Jen. We’re making a mental note to retain our cool if we ever see her in the flesh after this.
