Jennifer Lawrence apparently just landed in hot water after she allegedly made a rape joke at a recent event. According to various reports, the Oscar-winning actress was at a party at the Cannes Film Festival hosted by Vanity Fair and Armani over the weekend when she saw "Gravity" director Alfonso Cuaron.

The actress apparently was a big fan of him and was so excited to see him at the event. Screaming, the "X Men: Days of Future Past" star approached the director and reportedly was overheard saying, "I broke out my rape scream for you!"

Some people apparently were not happy upon learning of the report. Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton wrote, "We know you're always open and honest in interviews, but COME ON, a rape joke?!?"

Some Twitter users also voiced their opinions. One person wrote, "I just don't get it?? jennifer lawrence makes a rape joke and everyone seemed okay with it because its jennifer lawrence? IT'S NEVER OKAY." Another user tweeted, "Jennifer Lawrence throwing around rape jokes is depressing news to wake up to. I mean, COME ON. 'I don't have a filter' isn't cute anymore." The 23-year-old star has not commented on the rape joke report.

In other news, Lawrence appeared in a May 21 episode of "Late Night with Seth Meyers" where she recalled puking at an Oscar party held by Guy Oseary and Madonna. "I've never gone out after Golden Globes or Oscars or anything. I'm just so sick of people by that point, but this time I was like, 'I'm going out.' And I puked all over," she shared. "And I puked on his porch. I was in such bad condition and I look behind me and Miley Cyrus is looking at me like, 'Get it together.' "
