We love these two!
Dear friends Robert De Niro and Jennifer Lawrence joked around onstage at the GLAAD Media Awards on Saturday in NYC -- and things got a pretty funny.
Lawrence, who starred with DeNiro in Joy, American Hustle and Silver Linings Playbook, presented her pal with the Excellence in Media Award -- and went straight for the jokes.
“Robert De Niro is not gay, so I don’t know why we’re here,†the funny lady said. “That aside, Bob has asked me to present him with GLAAD’s Excellence in Media Award because, in his words, I am like a daughter to him. And that transpires to our once-a-week drinks at the Greenwich Hotel, where I ask him advice on absolutely everything. And also when he gets drunk and pinches my cheek and says, ‘You remind me of my little Helen’ … who’s 4."
Of course, the actor, who was honored due to his documentary Remembering the Artist, was quick to retort: “Thank you, Jen. If I were a lesbian, I'd be all over you." Funny … but creepy!
However, he did add, "Being a father figure has its limitations. Jennifer Lawrence is not only a great actress, she's a respectful and loving friend."Â
Adorbs!
Meanwhile, the Meet the Parents actor made an appearance today at the Cannes Film Festival. What a jetsetter!
The 72-year-old actor is in the South of France to promote his film, Hands of Stone, alongside co-stars Usher Raymond and Édgar RamÃrez.
