News_ how [_Keeping Up with the Kardashians_](http://people.com/tag/keeping-up-with-the-kardashians) helped relieve her from the stress of filming [_mother!_](http://people.com/movies/mother-review-jennifer-lawrences-controversial-new-horror-movie-is-freaky-and-frightening/)_._ And despite being one of Hollywood’s biggest celebrities, Kardashian West was left starstruck. “OMG is this real?!” the mother of two wrote on Snapchat, filming Lawrence’s interview. Lawrence’s comments to _E! News_ were similar to the ones she made to [_Vogue_](http://www.vogue.com/article/jennifer-lawrence-vogue-september-issue-2017-cover?mbid=zr) in August, when she first revealed that the crew of her new thriller had made her a “Kardashian tent” where she could decompress between scenes. “I had to go to a darker place than I’ve ever been in my life. I didn’t know if I’d be able to come out okay,” she said of the movie, directed by boyfriend Darren Aronofsky. “It was a tent that had pictures of the Kardashians and _Keeping Up with the Kardashians_ playing on a loop — and gumballs.” “My happy place,” she said. It’s just one of the many loving things Lawrence has said about the Kardashians through the years, often praising them — and other reality shows like Bravo’s _Real Housewives_ franchise — in interviews. “You can look at someone else’s life and say, ‘Well, obviously, you shouldn’t marry that guy,’ and it makes you feel like God for 30 minutes,” she told _Vogue._ And while it appears she’s yet to meet Kardashian in person, Lawrence did come face-to-face with the head of the KarJenner family, [Kris Jenner](http://people.com/tag/kris-jenner), at [a surprise birthday party for the _Hunger Games_ alum in August 2015](http://people.com/celebrity/jennifer-lawrence-dishes-about-birthday-party-with-kris-jenner/). “My two best friends planned a surprise birthday party with a big surprise within the surprise,” Lawrence told [_The New York Times_](https://twitter.com/brooksbarnesNYT/status/636347342522683392) about her rollicking [25th birthday bash](http://www.people.com/article/jennifer-lawrence-kris-jenner-chris-marting-breakup), Just as her pals started singing “Happy Birthday” to the actress, “Kris Jenner comes out holding my cake, which is a pile of s—, with a sign that says, ‘Happy Birthday You Pile of S—.’ My knees buckled,” she recalled. “It was the closest I’ve ever come to losing consciousness,” she said. “I had no idea. I’d never met her before, but we’ve always watched _Keeping Up With the Kardashians_. And then Kris Jenner and I sang ‘Build Me Up Buttercup’ on karaoke.” _This_ [_article_](http://people.com/tv/kim-kardashian-gushes-over-jennifer-lawrence/) _originally appeared on_ [_People.com_](http://people.com) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4941795/kim-kardashian-jennifer-lawrence-fans/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4941795/kim-kardashian-jennifer-lawrence-fans/"},"headline":"Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lawrence Are in a Mutual Admiration Society Now","datePublished":"2017-09-14T20:23:54.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:47:15.831Z","description":"They both have expressed admiration for the other","url":"https://time.com/4941795/kim-kardashian-jennifer-lawrence-fans/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Jennifer Lawrence","Kim Kardashian"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt549e5f98ba30a924/6988d556e76ad2107b62e4bf/kim-kardashian-west.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Dave Quinn / People"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt549e5f98ba30a924/6988d556e76ad2107b62e4bf/kim-kardashian-west.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"US-FORBES-KIM-KARDASHIAN","caption":"US-FORBES-KIM-KARDASHIAN","creditText":"ANGELA WEISS—AFP/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4941795/kim-kardashian-jennifer-lawrence-fans/","name":"Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lawrence Are in a Mutual Admiration Society Now"}}]}] ```
