Like most Hollywood stars, Jennifer Lawrence has a bodyguard. But when she stepped out in New York City on June 10 and 11, her latest bodyguard Greg Lenz took the spotlight away from the A-list actress.
He was first spotted escorting Jennifer around the cobbled streets of the Manhattan neighborhood last Wednesday afternoon to go apartment hunting.
Although the Hunger Games star showed off her toned legs in a pair of super-short denim shorts, she was overshadowed by her handsome bodyguard walking protectively just a few paces behind her.

He then joined Lawrence again on Thursday, where he was snapped leading her out of a hotel. He wore a printed blue and white gingham button-down and jeans as he clutched Lawrence's puppy in one arm and held her duffle bag in the other.
Despite all the cameras clicking, Greg remained totally professional, leading Jennifer through the crowd and keeping a tight hold on her beloved pet, Pippi. Lenz has instantly gone viral and his photos were making rounds on the internet and caused a mini-frenzy on people's social media account feeds.
This may have been the first time we’ve noticed Greg and Jen together, but he’s actually been around for a while. In several photos from the Catching Fire press tour in 2013, Greg is spotted in the background.
Back in December 2014, paparazzi cameras caught the 24-year-old actress with a different bodyguard Justin Riblet, who also caused a stir on social media and Twitter users nicknamed him as 'McRiblet.'

Clearly, JLaw has a type when it comes to bodyguards. "Jennifer likes the hot ones!" an insider said.
Jennifer's fans might be hoping for a romantic connection with her bodyguard, but accoring to US Weekly Greg is married and Jen is still being romantically linked to Chris Martin, and they were seen together at a U2 concert just earlier this month.
After the photos of Jennifer and Greg surfaced this week, Twitter completely blew up with poeple gushing over the gorgeous stud.
