Watch Jennifer Lawrence, John Oliver, Jimmy Fallon try (and fail) to tell the truth
Did Jennifer Lawrence accidentally pop an Ambien before filming a scene for The Hunger Games? Did John Oliver make Queen Elizabeth a feta omelette as a teenage chef? And did Jimmy Fallon really write a song called "Am I Doing It Wrong?" and offer it to Sir Paul McCartney free of charge? Those are the confessions the trio divulged on Monday during a game of "True Confessions" on The Tonight Show, but not everyone was telling the truth. Not surprisingly, Oliver is a master interrogator, while Fallon and Lawrence take a more casual approach to their questioning (when they aren't straight up accusing Oliver of being a dirty liar).
