Don't want to miss the best from Business Standard?

Oscar Winner Jennifer Lawrence says she fears tripping on the red carpet after her infamous fall at the Academy Awards this year.
The 23-year-old actress, who had tripped as she climbed the stairs on her way to collect her Best Actress Oscar for her role in 'Silver Linings Playbook' during the award ceremony, feels nervous on the red carpet, reported Contactmusic.
"My mom taught me to laugh at myself. What else can I do? There are so many things that I do and say which come out wrong because I don't think before speaking. I make a fool of myself easier than anyone I know," Lawrence said.
"But that's part of the way I was allowed to be when growing up. I get so nervous before going down red carpets. I've tripped at least a couple of other times, too. I managed to forget to thank both the director and producer when I went on stage, so I wonder what was worse?," she added.
