Cute article on Jennifer Lawrence.
Jennifer Lawrence on Being Asked to Gain Weight for Movie: “Hell Yeah!”
The 22-year-old actress, who has compared her mom to Dina Lohan and called herself “obese” by showbiz standards, is characteristically frank in an interview with the New York Times about her upcoming movie, Silver Linings Playbook.
Lawrence tells the paper that director David O. Russell asked her to gain weight for her role in the film, in which she stars as young, sex-addicted widow alongside Bradley Cooper.
Her response to Russell?
“I was like, ‘Hell yeah!’” she says, noting, “That never happens in a movie.”
