Jennifer Lawrence scooped up her People's Choice Award for Favorite Movie Actress with an endearing acceptance speech in which she referenced both "Mean Girls" and Robert Downey Jr.

"I've been sweating to much I'm gonna drop [this award]. Robert Downey Jr. knows, I sweat all over you," the 22-year-old "Hunger Games" actress said.

Lawrence received an Oscar nomination for "Silver Linings Playbook" the very next morning.
