Actor Jennifer Lawrence mirrored on her well-known press excursions throughout her 20s, saying she misplaced “so much control over” her craft doing press for motion pictures and referred to as her interviews “so embarrassing.”
Lawrence advised The New Yorker in a profile printed Monday that, a couple of years in the past, she advised actor Viola Davis: “Every time I do an interview, I think, ‘I can’t do this to myself again.’ I feel like I lose so much control over my craft when I have to do press for a movie.”
She continued, “Well, it is, or it was, my genuine personality, but it was also a defense mechanism. And so it was a defense mechanism, to just be, like, ‘I’m not like that! I poop my pants every day!’ … I look at those interviews, and that person is annoying. I get why seeing that person everywhere would be annoying. Ariana Grande’s impression of me on ‘SNL’ was spot-on.”
Grande’s impression of Lawrence on a 2018 episode of “SNL” poked enjoyable at Lawrence’s annoying relatability, mocking the actor for consuming an entire can of Pringles.
Lawrence advised The New Yorker that she felt like she was being rejected from roles for her character.
YouTube compilations with hundreds of thousands of views present Lawrence, who received an Oscar for her position in “Silver Linings Playbook,” being goofy, tripping on the Oscars, consuming on discuss reveals, or retelling her most embarrassing moments, like mistakenly pondering she was speaking to Elizabeth Taylor when Taylor had been useless for years.
However Lawrence, who’s now selling her new film with Robert Pattinson, “Die, My Love,” is again working following a couple of years off after she stated she felt like everyone had “gotten sick” of her.
“I just think everybody had gotten sick of me,” Lawrence advised Vainness Truthful in 2021. “I’d gotten sick of me. It had just gotten to a point where I couldn’t do anything right. If I walked a red carpet, it was, ‘Why didn’t she run?’… I think that I was people-pleasing for the majority of my life. Working made me feel like nobody could be mad at me: ‘Okay, I said yes, we’re doing it. Nobody’s mad.’ And then I felt like I reached a point where people were not pleased just by my existence. So that kind of shook me out of thinking that work or your career can bring any kind of peace to your soul.”
Lawrence advised Stephen Colbert in 2021 on his late-night present that her break was “quiet” and she or he grew to become “part of the world again without fanfare.”
And on a current look on The Graham Norton Present, Lawrence stated she was “at peace” with probably not returning to appearing after taking a break.
