As Jennifer Lawrence came down the red carpet, the train on her gown seemed to trail on endlessly behind her. She'd actually cut off six inches of it already before the show, the nominee said. “It would have been too insane,” she said. Still, the dress was long enough to hide Lawrence's feet and high heels, which she said she should take off if nobody could see them.

CBS memo or not, Jennifer Lopez went for the flesh flash Sunday night at the Grammy Awards, letting it all hang out in the leg department, a la Angelina Jolie at the Oscars. Lopez, of course, wore one of the most famous Grammy ensembles ever back in 2000 when she donned a green Versace dress that exposed pretty much everything except the unmentionables from her neck down to below her belly button. (She still has the dress, by the way, she told Harper's Bazaar recently.) This year's Anthony Vaccarello gown was definitely more modest, but given the network's warning about not showing things like "under curves of the buttocks" or "bare sides or under curvature of the breasts," it was a bit daring simply in terms of the amount of skin shown, as it revealed J.

Jennifer Lawrence has revealed one of her celebrity crushes: John Stamos of "Full House" fame. In a Tuesday appearance on "Conan," the always-unpredictable Oscar nominee said Uncle Jesse was the one celebrity who completely blew her mind. She bumped into him at a party and could not stop staring at his behind. "He was at a party and I turned into the most perverted guy," Lawrence said. "I was like following him into rooms and staring at his ass. I lost my mind when I met him - and I didn't want to meet him because it's not good when I meet people who I really idolize.
