Jennifer Lawrence finished up a long, exhausting, international press tour for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire on Thursday’s “Daily Show” — and it was great.

The actress joked with Jon Stewart about his bizarre interviewing style, how much his staff drinks, and how surreal it is to have your new haircut reported on CNN.

“That was seriously the weirdest thing that has ever happened to me in my entire life,” said Lawrence. “Can you imagine getting your hair cut, and then finding out about it on the news?”

The longtime correspondent began the broadcast by saying, “Let’s all just acknowledge for a moment that this is weird. This looks weird, it feels weird, it even sounds weird. It sounds weird to me, and this is my actual voice.”

Oliver joked about how Stewart had assured him that no big stories break in the slow summer months — only to have the NSA surveillance controversy explode as soon as Stewart left.

Jon Stewart is leaving “The Daily Show” anchor desk — temporarily.

On Tuesday, it was announced that the late-night series’ longtime host will be taking the summer off to direct Rosewater, a dramatic movie adapted from the book “And Then They Came For Me: A Family’s Story of Love, Captivity and Survival” by Maziar Bahari and Aimee Molloy.

While Stewart is gone, “Daily Show” correspondent John Oliver will act as host.

Rosewater is expected to start shooting overseas in June.

It will be Stewart’s first time directing a movie.

The film’s story has a “Daily Show” connection.

Bahari’s book tells of the journalist’s 2009 trip to cover Iran’s presidential elections, only to be taken into custody, interrogated, and held in captivity for 118 days.

Shortly before his arrest, Bahari had appeared in a “Daily Show” sketch with the correspondent Jason Jones, and his subsequent ordeal left Stewart and his colleagues shaken.
