During a recent interview with Nylon, Jennifer Lawrence gushed over how handsome her "Hunger Games" co-star, Liam Hemsworth is.

Though she insists that Hemsworth is only her best friend, Lawrence did admit that she was "surprised" over how good her friend looks. She also described Hemsworth as "the most wonderful, lovable, family-oriented, sweet, hilarious, amazing guy."

Lawrence also continued to explain how Hemsworth's friendship taught her a number of positive traits including "how to be fair and to stand up for myself."

" It's my biggest weakness: negotiating," she added. "I'm a wimp about standing up for myself and Liam is always fair. He's always on time, he's always doing his job, and he's good about making sure that things stay fair. He's teaching me to toughen up a little bit. That was important, I need that."

In a separate interview with the Associated Press, Hemsworth also gushed over his friendship with Lawrence adding that the Academy award winning actress helped him get over his ex-girlfriend, Miley Cyrus.

"For a few years, I went down a path where I forgot to be in the moment and enjoy the moment," he said. "But being around someone like Jen, who is so honest and laughs all day long, I am forced to be in the right now. I'm much happier."

Naturally, Lawrence and Hemsworth kind words about each other sparked rumors of a possible romance emerging between the two.

OK! is among the many media outlets reporting on Hemsworth and Lawrence's budding romance.

An OK! source via the Hollywood Life claims that Hemsworth and Lawrence's romance first began around the time that she was getting over her nude photo leak and her recent breakup from Chris Martin.

"It happened while they were in Germany, promoting the movie, having a heart-to-heart in Liam's hotel room. Jennifer was overwhelmed by all the publicity surrounding her split from Chris Martin and her nude photo scandal, and he was more than happy to listen to her vent," said an OK! source.

The OK! source continues to reveal that Hemsworth's consoling brought out romantic feelings in Lawrence and the two quickly decided to make it official.

Neither Lawrence nor Hemsworth has confirmed or denied the romance rumors.
