Liam Hemsworth called out Jennifer Lawrence for 'disgusting' habit while filming kissing scenes
Liam Hemsworth and Jennifer Lawrence are best known for their time together on The Hunger Games franchise, but the pair are also known for their public back-and-forth about their kissing scenes.
They play Gale and Katniss, respectively, though their friendship goes beyond the screen.
After becoming close from their time together over four films, it's no surprise that the actors take playful jabs at each other through the media about anything and everything.
Fans of the titles would have been pleased to see the two finally share an on-screen smooch though, as they shared a moment on The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.

But it turns out that Hemsworth ended up feeling 'pretty uncomfortable' when it came to shooting the intimate scene, as he explained why to Jimmy Fallon on his talk show back in 2014.
“Any time I had to kiss Jennifer was pretty uncomfortable,” he began.
The Australian went on: “When you look at it on the outside, it looks like a great picture,
“She’s one of my best friends. I love her. But if we had a kissing scene, she would make a point of eating garlic or tuna fish or something that was disgusting.”
But it looks like, years later, it still bothers Lawrence, as she addressed his comments during her appearance on famous YouTube series Hot Ones.
Speaking to the host of the online show, Sean Evans, the American actor laughed before explaining: “It was not intentional,
“It was just what I was eating, and then we’d kiss. He should just get over it,” she jokingly said.
But the pair haven't been shy to talk about their friendship, with Lawrence previously admitting that he helped her 'stand up' for herself.
Hemsworth isn't the last actor that the Passengers actor formed a friendly relationship with, though, as she also admitted that it was 'really, really hard' to work with Jonah Hill.
She explained to Vanity Fair: "It was really, really hard filming with Jonah, and just not ruining take after take, laughing.
“We one time dedicated an entire day to him just improv-ing insults at me. It was amazing."
Lawrence went on to praise Hill's talent for improv, adding that 'he and Meryl were the only ones who should do that kind of improv'.
"I mean, he's just a comedic master. I mean we all did some [improv] just not as well as Jonah," she said.
One scene that featured in the film's trailer shows Hill's character telling Lawrence and DiCaprio to: "Sit tight and assess."
"The sit tight comes first then you've got to digest it, that's the assessment period," Hill says.
Lawrence reflects: "See? That wasn't in the script Jonah."
