"On Amy Poehler's Good One podcast, the comedian asked Lawrence what her time was like hosting SNL. "Skewed," Lawrence responded. "I have to go back and do it again," she continued. "I had walking pneumonia. I was under a lot of pressure and doing a lot. I was shooting one of the Hunger Games movies, the second one, while doing all of this campaigning.""
"At the time of her episode, Lawrence was campaigning for her Oscar for the David O. Russell film Silver Linings Playbook, which she eventually won. She hosted the show on January 19, 2013, just nine days after being nominated on January 10. "I would have to fly, go to a party, shake hands, and then land and shoot," Lawrence said. "Poor me! But I was very tired.""
Jennifer Lawrence hosted Saturday Night Live on January 19, 2013, during an intense period of Oscar campaigning and while shooting The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. She suffered from walking pneumonia and described the experience as "skewed," saying she was under a lot of pressure, exhausted, and juggling travel, parties, and filming. Lawrence had been nominated for Best Actress for Silver Linings Playbook and won the Oscar later that year at age 23. She noted discomfort with performance demands such as impressions at that age but performed sketches on the show, including a Civil War–era wife whose husband repeatedly asks for a "tit pic."
