Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence is the cover girl for the November issue of U.K.’s Harper’s Bazaar, and she’s sharing some of the terrible criticism she’s encountered in Hollywood because of her weight.
The 23-year-old actress told Harper’s that she’s been body-shamed over the course of her career: “I was young. It was just the kind of shit that actresses have to go through. Somebody told me I was fat, that I was going to get fired if I didn’t lose a certain amount of weight. They brought in pictures of me where I was basically naked, and told me to use them as motivation for my diet.”
“It was just that,” Lawrence added. “They thought that because of the way my career had gone, it wouldn’t still hurt me. That somehow, after I won an Oscar, I’m above it all. I was a little girl. I was hurt. It doesn’t matter what accolades you get. I know it’ll never happen to me again. If anybody even tries to whisper the word ‘diet’, I’m like, ‘You can go fuck yourself.’”
Jlaw has one serious guilty pleasure when it comes to snacks – salty food! “[To m]y bodyguard Gilbert, right before they call action,” said Lawrence, “I’m like, ‘If there aren’t Cheez-Its here by the time they call ‘cut,’ just go home.’ And he’ll start running. It cracks me up how seriously he takes it.”
“It’s not my performance that is motivating me,” joked Lawrence, “I want to get the on-set catering.”
