Our favourite funny lady skipped out on the London premiere of X-Men: Days of Future Past and simultaneously broke our hearts.

Jennifer Lawrence, why must you play with our emotions like this?

After her amazing appearance at the New York City premiere of X-Men: Days Of Future Past this weekend, we couldn't wait to see J.Law at the London premiere. How would she amuse us on our home turf? What eye-catching gorgeous gown would she wear? And would she stumble AGAIN?

Sadly none of those things happened, because Jennifer was heartbreakingly absent from Monday night's blue carpet.

Her costar and real-life boyfriend Nicholas Hoult was also missing from the London premiere. So were the two skiving off together, enjoying some rare couple time? Not exactly. The 23-year-old actress was reportedly busy filming scenes for the next instalment of The Hunger Games. (We guess that's an acceptable excuse.)

Jennifer and Nicholas weren't the only missing stars. Hugh Jackman, Peter Dinklage and Fan BingBing are currently busy promoting the film in Beijing.

But despite the limited roster (and the rainy weather), the blue carpet wasn't a total wash. We did get to admire some of the film's handsome male stars - including Sir Patrick Stewart, James McAvoy, Sir Ian McKellen and the ever-sexy Michael Fassbender.

While their outfits aren't nearly as fun to analyse as J.Law's, we are pretty impressed that they all managed to wear a different colour suit. Clever planning...
