Lawrence literally said “whoa” after trying out a new line.
“My dentist always told me to use LISTERINE. I’ve actually been on LISTERINE for years and my kids are on it, and we’ve probably talked about it in the pod,” he exclusively told The Blast.
“The crazy story is, they reach out, like, ‘Hey, we have this brand new Clinical Solutions Antiseptic Line, it’s great, and we want you to try it.’ I said okay great. I’ve tried not to joke, many people say that a week looks different, right? Honest to goodness a week later was like a huge improvement and I couldn’t believe it.”
Lawrence said looking in the mirror one day, she literally said “whoa” because of the difference she noticed since using the new line.

Lawrence’s famous “Whoa” was not something he set out to create. It actually happened by accident during a scene from his hit show with Mayim Bialik, “Blossom.”
“It was one of those things, before social media, they had written lines in the script to be more like Keanu Reeves’ ‘whoa’ like he said in ‘Speed’ and we had a live audience which was an amazing experience. . And it was in the height of a group of teenage idols that was happening, it was crazy for me at the time,” he told The Blast. “They gave me this line and nobody really laughed. I’ve seen this beautiful girl and been like ‘whoa’ and people are like uh and they’re really not laughing, just giggling.”

“He came in and I was literally like ‘whoa,’ literally, and the audience was laughing. Third take, explode. Producers were like, do it again,” he said. “And the next three months it really blew up.”
