Jennifer Lawrence has revealed that her mom once sold her used toilet on Craigslist.

Lawrence made the admission in an interview with PEOPLE magazine, drawing a shocked 'woah!' from her co-star Andrew Barth Feldman.

The pair had been talking about their upcoming movie No Hard Feelings, which sees two concerned parents placing an advert on Craigslist for a woman to date their shy teenage son and help him become more confident - Feldman being the son and Lawrence being his date.

In the interview, however, Lawrence decided to recount her own real life experience on Craiglist, revealing that her mum had sold her toilet on the site.

But don't worry, it's not as gross as you might think.

By a quirk of fate, it was bought by Lee Eisenberg, who is the writing partner of No Hard Feelings director Gene Stupnitsky.

Lawrence told PEOPLE: “Years ago, Lee Eisenberg bought a toilet on Craigslist from my mom. My toilet."

But why on earth was Jennifer Lawrence's mother selling her toilet online? Well, it turns out that the commode was broken and Lawrence needed to get rid of it.

She said: “I’m like, ‘I broke it.’ My mom sold it for me.”

Lawrence has previously acknowledged that she has not always had an easy relationship with her parents, with her dropping out of school to forge her own path.

“My parents, you know — changed their entire lives to support me", said Lawrence.

At times Lawrence's antics became a bit much for her parents, who sometimes even took rather extreme measures with their daughter.

She added: “My parents were just—you know, they would go through periods of time where they just wanted me outta the house. And it was called a lockout.

"And so I'd go to the door and it was locked. And I'd be like all right. I gotta find something else to do until my parents were ready to deal with me again."

On one occasion she even pretended to have a wooden leg in school and walked with a pronounced limp to convince her classmates and teachers that she did, in fact, have a wooden leg.

She said: “I, like, walked in a very consistent limp. Like, incredibly consistent. And when my mom came to get me from school, my teachers were, like, ‘It's awful what happened to Jennifer's leg.’

"And my mom was, like, ‘She does not have—she's—her leg has not been amputated.’ I used to just invent stories just to invent them.”

Lawrence added: “I was a handful. And I got it. We never fought about it. I've always been very self-aware about my annoyingness."
