Kourtney Kardashian had some choice words for Jennifer Lawrence after the Oscar-winning actress called her “more annoying than ever” and said she “drives me nuts” during a 2025 Vanity Fair lie-detector interview.
Kardashian addressed the remarks during the season 8 premiere of “The Kardashians,” revealing that Lawrence later apologized by email.
The drama began when Lawrence was asked which member of the Kardashian family was her favorite. She selected Khloé Kardashian and then criticized Kourtney’s behavior on the reality show.

“Everything has to be an announcement,” Lawrence said. “It’s like, you know, ‘I’m not gonna wear outfits anymore.’ Like, just wear whatever you want. Don’t make an announcement about it. Or, like, ‘I don’t have a TV in my room.’ Like, just don’t watch TV. Stop announcing it. Just shh.”
Lawrence also said Kourtney “drives me nuts” and was “more annoying than ever.”
Kourtney, 47, said she was particularly upset after her mother, Kris Jenner, mentioned spending time with Lawrence and Emma Stone.

“My mom wrote something, like, ‘Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone, I talked to them last night, they’re the best,’” Kourtney recalled during the episode. “And I go, ‘F— that b—- Jennifer Lawrence.’”
“I said to my mom, ‘OK, she thinks she’s one of my sisters? I’ll f—ing slap the s— out of her,’” she continued. “I was like, ‘Invite her over and we can — I’ll go for it like she’s my sister.’”
Kourtney later discussed the situation with her friend Simon Huck, joking about whether she should respond to Lawrence with a reference to Kourtney’s infamous physical fight with Kim Kardashian.
“She asked Kim for my email, and then she sent me that email, which is so nice,” Kourtney said. “I mean, do I say something funny? Like, ‘You can come over and I’ll beat your f—ing a–?’”
“I’ll just say, next time you wanna come over, we can go at it — Kourtney and Kim style,” she added.

Despite her frustration, Kourtney admitted that Lawrence’s remarks weren’t as bad as she initially thought.
“When I rewatched it, I was like, ‘Oh, it’s not that bad, actually,’” she said. “But I’m also like, it was a really sensitive week when she sent it, and I felt like our show was airing and everybody was ganging up on me.”
The exchange marked an awkward moment in Lawrence’s longtime relationship with the Kardashian-Jenner family.
Lawrence has been an outspoken fan of the family for years. In 2017, she guest-hosted “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and interviewed Kim, whom she introduced as her “utter obsession.” During the interview, Lawrence and Kim discussed a dinner at Kris’ home where Lawrence said she became intoxicated while spending time with the family.

Lawrence also joked that she had been “obsessed” with Kim and her family “for over a decade in a really healthy way.”
During an appearance on Amy Poehler’s “Good Hang” podcast in January, Lawrence addressed the backlash surrounding her comments about Kourtney.
“I think that when I do press, I should do half [of] what normal people do,” Lawrence said. “Because I see my quotes and they’re insane. Like, ‘Jennifer Lawrence calls Kourtney Kardashian annoying.’ It’s just too … you know? It carries.”
