The 'Passengers' actress says she 'meant absolutely no disrespect to the Hawaiian people' after receiving backlash for her joke about sacred rocks.
Jennifer Lawrence broke her silence after she took the heat for joking about Hawaiian sacred rocks. The "Passengers (2016)" actress landed in hot water over her tale about scratching her backside on the rocks during a movie filming in Hawaii.
"[The giant boulder] rolled down this giant mountain and almost killed our sound guy. His whole station got destroyed. It was this huge, dramatic deal," she said. "All the Hawaiians were like, 'Oh my God, it's the curse!' And I was sitting in the corner like, 'Haha! I'm your curse! I wedged it loose with my ass!' "
In response to the backlash, Lawrence wrote on Facebook, "I meant absolutely no disrespect to the Hawaiian people. I really thought that I was being self deprecating about the fact that I was 'the curse', but I understand the way it was perceived was not funny and I apologize if I offended anyone."
