During the actor's interview with Ryan Seacrest on E!'s Live From the Red Carpet today ahead of the 2015 Oscars, Hutcherson, who is presenting tonight, was asked whether or not he had "Hanging Tree" (the song J.Law sang for their film Catching Fire) on his phone, and Josh let us know that he does, but because Lawrence made sure of it.
"It is, because Jennifer bought it and put it on my phone for me," he told us. LOL. She would do that. But again, why wouldn't he have it? It's amazing!
Making the talk show rounds in support of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay—Part 1, Lawrence told David Letterman back in November that she dreaded having to sing "The Hanging Tree" for an essential scene in the franchise's latest installment, saying that she asked the filmmakers if they could just have Lorde sing it instead and she could lip sync.
"I still haven't heard it," she said of the song. "I put my fingers in my ears...I was like, 'Will you guys please get, like, Lorde to really sing it and I'll lip synch?' They said, 'No, it's really [got to be] your voice.' So, I avoid [watching] that scene."
However, not only did the song become the song of solidarity for the rebelling Districts of Panem, but "Hanging Tree" started climbing the music charts all over the world and inspired a number of EDM remixes of the song.
