JENNIFER Lawrence downed three glasses of rum on a US chat show before blasting Harvey Weinstein and confessing to flirting with Larry David.

The 27-year-old appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert when he suddenly offered a drink of rum – and it seems like she needed it.

She told him: “This will help bring my soul back, I want it. In case someone is having a mental breakdown!”

As Jen downed another rum with the host she expressed her disgust at Harvey Weinstein’s press team using her words without her permission.

She declared: “He is just that horrible ass boil that does not go away,” said Lawrence. “You pop the ass boil. He’s just the worst. When is it going to end?”

Jen added that she was forced to make a statement against him while in London promoting Red Sparrow: “In the middle of the night, I had to come up with a statement in London.

“And I was like, it’s still not over?”

Downing rum and moving on to something far happier than the Hollywood sex pest, Jennifer revealed the inside gossip to her pal Amy Schumer’s wedding, and how she was the most inappropriate guest there.

Recalling a conversation with an American actress, she said: “Bridget Everett and I were talking about how much we loved our dogs and I went too far in saying what I would do to make my dog happy. It went too far, it didn’t translate, it went too far.”

And when Jen wasn’t admiring her dog, she had turned her attentions to writer and comedian Larry David, 70.

She continued: “Then I was flirting with Larry David all night, but it was very one-sided, I’m obsessed with Larry David, but he’s not obsessed with me.

“After the ceremony Amy comes up and grabs me and she’s like, ‘Let’s go and talk about life and love and this giant decision I just made.’ So we go up to the roof and we’re talking about everything, and I go Amy, ‘Every minute that I’m here, Larry could be leaving.’

“She was like, ‘You're an unending a***hole, but go downstairs.”

Unfortunately for Jen her love of the Curb Your Enthusiasm star is one-sided.

Asked if he knows about her feelings, she said: “I feel like yes, but I don’t have his number and he doesn’t flirt back with me, so that’s like fuel for me, it just gets me going!”

As the audience were left in hysterics by her confession, Jen added: “I love rum! Big rum guy!”
