‘People are going to get sick of me’
Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence opens up to women’s magazine
Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence fears fans are going to eventually get tired of her.
The 23- year- old star tells the June issue of Marie Claire that she’s all right with the fact she won’t remain the it girl indefinitely.
“Nobody can stay beloved forever,” Lawrence told the magazine. “I never believed it, the whole time. I was like, just wait: People are going to get sick of me. My picture is everywhere, my interviews are everywhere.”
And she wouldn’t blame people for turning their backs on her.
“I’m way too annoying because I get on red carpets and I’m really hyper, most likely because I’ve been drinking, and I can’t not photobomb somebody if it’s a good opportunity,” Lawrence said.
“But it’s something I always tell myself: ‘ You need to calm the f—k down. You don’t want to constantly be a GIF.’
“I’m trying to do the right thing, waving to fans, trying to be nice, and there’s a traffic cone. The second I hit it, I was laughing, but on the inside I was like, ‘ You’re f--- ed. They’re totally going to think this is an act. … But trust me, if I was going to plan it, I would have done it at the Golden Globes or the SAGs.
“I would have never done it at two Oscars in a row. I watch Homeland, I’m craftier than that.”
Even though she came home emptyhanded from the Oscars, Lawrence said she thought Lupita Nyong’o deserved the Best Supporting Actress nod.
“I was very happy I voted for Lupita,” she revealed. “It’s beautiful when you watch something good happen to somebody when it’s well deserved.”
Lawrence also admitted that the constant media attention that has been thrust upon her makes her squirm.
“I’m a lot more closed off and frankly, probably rude,” she said.
“I mean, I’m from Kentucky. I used to be very personable and make eye contact and smile at people, and now all I do is look down. When I’m at dinner and one person after another keeps interrupting to take pictures, it’s like, ‘ I can’t live like this.’”
Lawrence is dating X- Men star Nicholas Hoult and admits their long- distance relationship can be tough.
“When we’re busy, we agree to mutually ignore each other. Not completely, but neither of us gets mad when the other doesn’t text back or call,” she said.
