When Jennifer Lawrence was preparing for her gig on Thursday’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, she had a bit of company.
The 27-year-old actress posted a Facebook video that day of herself and her tiny dog Pippi, writing: ‘We’re hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight! Tune in at 11:35/10:35c.’
Dressed casually in a black T-shirt and matching leggings, Jennifer could be seen on a couch, pulling a pair of shorts onto the pooch.

‘Good girl – ,’ Jennifer began, only for Pippi to thrash on the couch, knocking the human clothes off of herself.
Jennifer, as well as the person filming this episode, burst into laughter.

‘Coyotes, bigger dogs, rattlesnakes, big crows. Every 20 minutes I have a heart attack. I’m going to be a great mother,’ said Jennifer, whose new film – directed by her boyfriend Darren Aronofsky – happens to be called Mother!.
Her dog’s full name is Pippi Lawrence-Stocking, a reference to the Pippi Longstocking children’s books by Astrid Lindgren.
She had clarified as much on Late Night With Seth Meyers last year, joking that when Vanity Fair misnamed Jennifer’s dog as ‘Pippi Longstocking,’ ‘Pippi was so upset,’ to the point that ‘I got a call from her publicist.’
