Jennifer Lawrence loves British reality TV.

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire actress has become addicted to ITV2 show The Only Way Is Essex thanks to her British beau Nicholas Hoult and is fascinated by their vacuous lifestyle of tanning and vajazzling.

She told The Sun: "You guys have your own version of Jersey Shore which is so ridiculously amazing I can't even begin. It's like another world in Essex."

Jennifer was treated to a tour of Skins star Nicholas' favourite local spots when she visited him over Christmas, including Hampshire pub the Jekyll & Hyde.

And the Oscar-winning Silver Linings Playbook actress is a self-confessed Anglophile and says she likes nothing more than scoffing fish and chips in front of the TV.

She said: "I'm a big fan of all things British. I get to spend some time there now and again and I like that I can go for fish and chips wearing the most awful outfit and it's cool, you know.

"I don't do much when I'm in the UK, though I do watch the TV. I really like the shows you have there. You guys get to say f**k and s**t a lot more than our main TV shows do."
