She interestingly  disclosed that it was Woody who helped them exchange phone numbers, leading Stone to send Lawrence a text. Lawrence’s response, however, was far from the expected polite greeting. She hilariously recounted her reply admitting, “I replied, ‘F—k off!’ And we’ve been really good friends ever since.”
