Jennifer Lawrence Had Some *Thoughts* for the Reporter Who Tried to Pet Her Dog Without Asking

Jennifer Lawrence isn’t afraid to speak up for herself when it comes to her privacy as a celebrity. She doesn’t take pictures with fans and is one of a few celebs with basically no social media to speak of – so it’s not a surprise that she had no problem putting an overly-aggressive TMZ reporter in his place.

According to Cosmopolitan, the actress was leaving the airport after her plane made an emergency landing in Buffalo, New York when reporters showed up to the scene, as usual. She ignored them at the first for the most part, but she was understandably not happy when one reporter from TMZ tried to pet her dog Pippi Lawrence Stocking without asking. 

She swiftly responded by grabbing the pooch and telling the reporter, “Don’t touch my dog you f*cking loser.”

Of course, she’ll probably be accused of being rude by clapping back – but every dog owner knows that petting someone’s dog without asking is a huge no-no. Not to mention that she (and Pippi) have the right to their privacy. Lesson learned: keep your paws off J-Law’s pup, thank you very much.
