Jennifer Lawrence is absolutely glowing on the red carpet of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 premiere held at Le Grand Rex on Monday (November 9) in Paris, France.

Jennifer recently cleared up rumors that she doesn’t wash her hands after she uses the bathroom in this very funny video posted to Facebook.

“I hate talking to the Internet but I can’t get asked another question about my hygiene on this press tour. I told MTV I didn’t wash my hands after going to the bathroom because I was trying to gross out Josh and Liam and I ended up grossing out the world. Of course I wash my hands after going to the bathroom! (I can’t believe I’ve put myself in a situation where I even have to say that.) Anyway with all the rumors I’ve ever heard about myself this is the one I really had to put to rest,” she wrote on her Facebook. Watch the video below!

FYI: Jennifer is wearing a Dior Haute Couture dress, Sophia Webster shoes, Shay earrings, and a Dana Rebecca Designs necklace in her hair.

The James Cameron-produced movie will center on “free-divers Francisco “Pipin” Ferreras and his wife Audrey Mestre (Lawrence), who competed to travel as deep as possible underwater on a single breath of air.”

It is still unknown when Jennifer will start filming the movie, as she is about to start shooting another biopic Joy.

Jennifer Lawrence poses in character as her The Hunger Games heroine Katniss Everdeen on the cover of Empire magazine‘s December 2014 issue, on newsstands October 30.

In the issue, Mockingjay director Francis Lawrence talks about the possibility of the franchise creating some spinoff movies in the way that the Harry Potter series is currently doing so.

“It’s a tough thing. It’s a weird thing,” Francis said. “That world of Harry Potter, there’s a lot to that world that you can explain. You can understand the appeal of telling another story, but can you actually do it without Harry, Hermione and those characters? Will people care as much? And I guess you can say the same thing about the Hunger Games world. There are a lot of past games and a lot of this world, but without Katniss, is it the same? Part of what I like about the series is the connection to things we think about and talk about now. What’s the new version of that? That would be the tricky thing.”
