Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence started crying when she saw a spider while filming 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire'.

The 23-year-old actress said she has a mortal fear of the eight-legged bugs, and gets severely freaked out when she came face-to-face with them while shooting in the Hawaiian jungle, reported Contactmusic.

"Everybody told me there were no spiders, so when I saw three, I started crying. Jungles are not easy when you're afraid of everything.

"I think I am a legitimate alcoholic. No, what's it called? An Arachnophobic," she said.

Lawrence said she is already filming the third part in the franchise, 'Mockingjay', but admits she would like to slow her career down a little.
 

"I would like to slow it down. You don't want more than one or two movies out a year; people get sick of you.
