Jennifer Lawrence Goes Boom

Jennifer Lawrence might have fallen during her walk to the stage to accept the Best Actress award, but she covered nicely during her chat with the media. Kind of looks she was doing a Tebow.

    My unpopular opinion is that I'm sick of JLaw being shoved down our throats. At first I didn't mind her and I'll take her over AnnE any day, but I'm over her now.

    I would have loved if she had said "I fell! I fell in Dior!" (SATC reference). She's still my favorite for a long time for saying "I beat Meryl!" (First Wives Club) at the Globes

    Damn I can't stand her. She knew she had that Oscar just like Anne did. Had too laugh when she fell. Hell she probably fell on purpose, don't see what is so likeable about that chick.

    If someone has a problem with Lawrence, they're just looking to have issues with someone for no good reason. She seems to be nice, self-deprecating, and taking the Hollywood thing in stride without going off the rails.

    A definite case of damned if you do, f*cked if you don't. This is why we can't have nice things. We get someone decent a star and we still gripe about it.

      Agreed! She's a breath of fresh air. Not nearly as insufferable and rehearsed as AnnE. JLaw, please don't change!

    I like Jennifer Lawrence, but it just seems like as a 22 year old, she was horribly miscast in Silver Linings Playbook. But apparently, the academy does not share my opinion.

    You just can't complain about everyone. If they're too nice, they're faking it. They're reserved, they must be a b*tch. They're ugly, they're too skinny, they're full of themselves, they're too theatrical. Folks, they're actors, we have no clue who or what they really are. Have fun with it, snark away, but honestly? Some of them seem alright but we hate them, anyway. What gives?

    And really? No one trips on purpose during the Oscars.

    I think she's hilarious, so not in danger of disappearing up her own arse, like so many are.

    Over here in Blighty, one of the BBC Radio's entertainment correspondents scored an interview with Ben Affleck (quite the coup), and then asked him if he felt he'd come a long way "since Gigli". Affleck was stunned, silent, and next to him was Clooney, who was absolutely livid about the question!

    Back to the clip. Don't some interviewers/correspondents ask the dumbest questions? Points to Lawrence for showing them how stupid they were.

    As a person who found Jennifer Lawrence intolerable up until recently I must say she's really grown on me. She seems sweet, down to earth, a little goofy. I resonate with her because I am all of those things. Oh and clumsy. I fall constantly. Plus she has an incredible booty. Yes I am jealous.

    I am always saying exactly these things about Angelina, how we don't actually know her, and nobody listens.
    People make up their minds about someone, and fit everything that person does into the mold they've created, anything that doesn't fit is forgotten.

    Just like they attack Anne for everything. Everything this year. She's not surprised she won, but would you be?

      I agree. I guess I shouldn't be surprised people do these types of things. We all judge people on limited knowledge about them. Even our own spouses, there's no way to ever know absolutely about someone except yourself so we really can't judge people at all. Poor Angelina... Hated because she stole a man, but I just miss her pre-Brad because she was all crazy and sexed up with Billy Bob. Miss them together.

    She is so genuine and adorable in interviews. I love that she doesn't have the jaded filter that most stars have. She looks like she'd be fun to hang out with. Her falling in that monstrosity of a dress is something a normal human would do.

    I guess we all really do have different taste. I adore her.

    I think she is cute and real and seems to be pretty normal, unlike a huge number of people in that town. She appears to be sincere and hasn't turned into a Hollyweird b*tch yet who thinks she's better than everyone else. I hope she never does. In the mean time, I think she is very easy to root for and I like hearing what she has to say. It isn't necessarily profound, but it's honest.

    Can't help but laugh at the "she fell on purpose" theories. If anyone was going to do a fake fall, I'm sure they would've tried to make it a little more glamorous. I think the humongous skirt caused the fall, but at least it hid how unflatteringly splayed her legs must have been.

  28. dia papaya7:06 AM

    I was horrified for her! No one wants to fall during their glory moment and she was so gracious about it.

    Poor thing was wearing an enourmous dress that made her unsteady! Who would have had good balance wearing a giant bell!?!

    And lets remember that she is only 22 years old. I was no where near as poised or confident then. I was wasting time dancing to techno at Raves and gay bars. Yes I AM a Geriatric Raver!

    I know people say we don't actually *know* these actors, and that it's not fair to say they're horrible/insufferable/etc., but whether they like it or not, they project an image. Sometimes that image is likeable, sometimes it's not.

  33. Patty7:15 AM

    Regarding the dislike towards some celebrities...I think each of has hits a saturation point with them. Same as a song you would listen to over and over gets boring and you can't stand it anymore. Or maybe they remind us of someone we didn't like in our past/present. They portray the same qualities of the person we don't like and by extension we don't like them either. It may just be a matter of the tolerance tank hitting "full".

    And all the Gigli comments towards Ben last night...show me one person in that room that has not thrown a stink bomb of a movie. Just one. How clever they all are to pick on him. Let it go. He moved on from that failure and did pretty well for himself.

    I don't feel like she's been shoved down our throats at all. I feel like Anne Hathaway has been. I currently love Jen L.

    With that being said, I think Jen Lawrence is still a good, sweet, normal and genuine person...but see if fading within the next year or two, especially since the oscar win. She'll be a nasty, self absorbed diva before we know it. They all start out sweet and humble...then their heads all blow up and they become holier than thou.

    I second @Lauren Eaker's opinion. So many actresses are contrived, full of themselves or just regurgitate what their PR people tell them to say. Here is a broad that really seems human, something your Kidmans, Anistons, and Hathaways of the world will never be.

    Look at what a twat that Stewart ho is after being in one franchise movie. Lawrence has 2 franchises going, along with 2 Oscar noms and a win. And she's not papped all over the place and daily tabloid fodder. If she handles her $$ right, she could walk away by 30 and not lift a finger the rest of her life.

    I only hope that all this success doesn't keep her from showing her tits in a film.

    P.S. Next "Your Turn" should be: What actress would you have rather seen fall down on their way to get an award?

    I get the "love to hate" celebrity thing, I do. I do it too. But it always fascinates me as to who gets sh*t all over and who gets a pass. Everyone hates Anne but gushes all over he insufferable ass that is DDL.

    Seriously, he's a complete a**hole on a personal level (dumps Isabelle Adjani BY FAX because she got pregnant. Goes off to Europe and gets married - meanwhile HIS LIVE-GIRLFRIEND that he had at the time finds out about it when her friend, hearing that DDL got married, called her to say congrats. Girlfriend is like, uh, he didn't marry me, and *he didn't even have the balls to tell her*

    And his insufferable priggishness on the professional level. He's at the Golden Globes, at the same event Bill Clinton spoke at, and when he gets up for his speech says, "Is there room for two former presidents on stage?"

    Let's think about this. On the one hand we have a man who worked his whole life, campaigned for, and was elected (twice) to the highest office in our country. He was freaking leader of the free world. He had all the power and responsibility and everything that comes with such lofty office.

    On the other hand, you have DDL who pretended to be a president in movie LUMPING HIMSELF IN WITH AN ACTUAL PRESIDENT. Like that's totally appropriate. Like his importance is on par. Please.

    I know I"ll get crap for this - I'm just genuinely interested in who sets off the hate-o-meter and who slides by, and why.

    I kinda have a love/hate relationship with BCoop. I want to believe he's all nice and good but I just can't believe it. I did feel though that he needed some love because of his efforts in saving Jennifer ;)

    I do love love love DDL but he is/was a major MANWHORE. I read an interview with Isabella Adjani where she said that it was her who phoned his live-in girlfriend to congratulate her on the marriage but lo and behold, he had married -Rebecca Miller and not her. I still love him though. It's unexplainable.

    I've never warmed up to AnnE Hathaway and I doubt I ever will. I do enjoy her performances though, I just mute her speeches.

    And Jennifer Lawrence can do no wrong in my book. I think she's the only young actress these days that I like. I can't name any other 20 something chick that I like! And that conversation with Jack is one of the greatest things I've ever seen.

    Sounds like we're all supposed to "hate" Jennifer Lawrence now she's got an Oscar. Boo, I refuse to be goaded, implied, innuendoed into this. She seems like a good kid, I've seen nothing to the contrary, and that was a great recovery after her fall. Oh, and DUH, of course she's being promoted with an Oscar. The "unexpected" win by a young woman over seasoned veterans is an Oscar perennial which really ought to be retired. But won't be.

A room where everybody takes turns making fun of me?". Then the disembodied voice announced "Last question" and JL said loudly "Thank God!!".

    Of course she fell, LOL. If she hadn't, I'd have been surprised. Love her - ever since "Winter's Bone"! I don't know that she deserved to win, but suspect she did because she is so likable. She comes across as the average girl next door, and seems genuine. Damn good actress, too.

    That being said, the Oscars are soooooo predictable. And this year it looks like all the money went into the garish set design rather than towards good writing and production.

    I do wonder how inadequate JL makes actors feel who spend years going to drama schools learning techniques & theories about acting and here JL who never took an acting lesson walks on camera at 16 in The Poker House and gives a performance 99% of the actors in Hollywood will never match no matter how many lessons they take or how many books they read on the craft. Then she follows that up with Winter's Bone & Silver Linings Playbook. I almost felt relieved for her that she finally got to relax in X-Men First Class. That seemed like a day at the beach for her compared to the heart wrenching dramatic performances in her indie film career.

    @lazyday, she was so good in The Poker House... was trying to remember the name. Did you know that's Lori Petty's story? She wrote and directed it, that's how she grew up. Harsh. I saw it after I saw Winter's Bone and I went looking for more JL to watch.

    I adore her. And after last night I love her even more. That media interview was cracking me up last night. "You don't worry about peaking too soon?" Throws arm in the air "Well now I am." I also love when she said, "I feel like I'm picking people to make fun of me."

    @EmEyeKey, back when "A League of Their Own" 1st came out I couldn't watch Lori Petty's eyes without starting to cry. She could show so much pain at how her older sister could do everything better than her, no matter how hard she tried. After seeing & reading about The Poker House I learned how she came by those pained eyes. What an awful way to grow up.

    So where is the explanation for JLaw giving a middle finger in her press appearance last night?

    I knew last night watching the show that it was Cooper who jumped up to help her, he was sitting right next to her so of course he was the one who showed up on camera. Not sure why so many people thought it was Hugh, but glad to see the gif shows it was both of them.

    I like Jennifer Lawrence, but she was miscast in the movie she won for. She's only 22, so where is her career going to go? I have a feeling she will go the way of Halle Berry and make bombs. At least she's not married and saved from the Best Actress Oscar curse.

    I just re-watched the clip and it is Hugh on camera, which is funny to me that I thought it was Cooper. Cooper is there hugging her right before she tripped, so maybe I just thought it was him right away on my little TV. Still glad that it was both of them. :)

    I both love and hate her dress and I'm not surprised it made her fall. (Incidentally, it looked white on camera; I was surprised at reports that it's actually pink.)

    I loved that post Oscar interview. She does seem genuine and I hope that this series of wins won't change her. She mentions her family a lot. Hopefully they will help keep her grounded.

    Ben Affleck has no reason to be angry about Gigli. No one forced him to make that movie. He and Clooney should have stock answers ready when reporters ask they about Gigli and Facts of Life. They weren't angry when they were accepting paychecks for those jobs and they shouldn't be pissed off now that they're breathing rarefied Oscar air.

    "I do wonder how inadequate JL makes actors feel who spend years going to drama schools learning techniques & theories about acting...."

    Lazyday, I can tell you exactly how the hard grifters of the craft feel about people like that: some resent them, but the real pros admire 'em. A little ruefully, but not with resentment. They're the "naturals". They just walk in off the street as young punks, no training, read through the script once and then--almost always reading for the role that everyone wants--gives the most utterly perfect performance possible. There are those rare few, and if you've ever worked with them in-scene or watched them work close-up, it's mind-boggling. They can be right there before you, then turn away for a few seconds and turn back being a completely different person.

    I don't think that J-Law truly has that gift, but she's got a voice and she should follow it. The director in me wants to tell her, "Don't let anyone tell you how to act, for the next ten years at least. Just keep doing what you're doing."

    Interesting tidbit Livia. I did not know that about DDL. And Libby, I want to hear the story about Julia Roberts trying to get him to work with her.

    I love Jennifer but feel a little jaded by the mention the other day that Harvey bought her an Oscar. I sincerely think Jessica earned it and Jennifer could wait but we know that H'weird rewards youth.

    And it looks like JLaw did an amazing job in the movie but again..Why a 22 yr old with a 39 year old man? That role should have been cast someone in their 30's with all the baggage the character apparently had. Again, crappy casting even though she did the part beautifully enough to earn an Oscar.

    I absolutely loved her in Winter's Bone and in that interview. She was sharp! And when she met Jack Nicholson. Lord, I pray she wasn't left alone with that lecherous old man!!! But girlfriend looks like she can hold her own. Hope all this doesn't make her a huge Diva PITA.

    She looks like my mother's annoying dog so I can't like her. Not that I've ever actually seen her in anything or plan on it (hate movies and don't watch TV but love gossip). She also looks like a completely different person in every picture and her mouth is super weird. She's got too much skin around it, makes me think of the Stephen King story about the library police, if they make that into a movie she should play the monster. She's probably a nice person or whatever, I don't really care, but looking at her weird face creeps me out.

    I hope this doesn't offend you but if you don't watch movies or TV, how do you know who is being gossiped about? I skip the reality TV and hip hop blinds because I don't know anything about the players, so the gossip doesn't mean anything to me.

    Well, this does not look good for Dior. They have had two dresses deconstruct, and one take down an Oscar winner. I think the dress is a work of art, but at what cost?

    I love her with all my heart, so much I even kind of didn't want her to win since I'm so afraid of the backlash. I too didn't like the Harvey Weinstein bought her an Oscar-remark, but even though she's only turning 23 maybe her body of work speaks for itself already.

    So maybe there won't be one; she has Hollywood at the palm of her hand. Sincerity is so fucking rare in Hollywood these days, she's like a ray of light and not even the most jaded H'wood star can resist just relaxing in her presence.

    I've met people like her before and they are always the most sincere, charming and witty people. The most endearing thing is that you sense that they aren't even fucking trying; they're stars just by waking up in the morning! I carry a MAJOR torch for this lady and I hope she never changes!

    I think she's a nice girl and loved her in Winters Bone, that should have won her an Oscar IMHO, she was good in Silver Linings but I agree that she was miscast and not completely believable in the role. I think the problem is her handlers and movie execs like Weinstein who maybe did buy her that Oscar and have pushed her down our troaths to get that award. I hope she continues to make good movies, she has a lot of talent.

    She has what, 2 more Hunger Games and probably 2 more X-Men? With those pay days ahead, she can cherry pick 2 movies that she thinks will get her nominations, and be set for next 3-4 years as far as work goes.

    Liked JLaw in SLP, like her even more after seeing how she handled last night. Hope that she stays as she is, relatively unaffected. That's gonna be the hard part.

    I worry how TPTB in Hwood will use her here out. If you thought SLP was awkward and age-inappropriate casting, wait for her next Russell film: she'll be playing a FIFTY yr old woman. That's how old Marie Weinberg was during the abscam antics; unless they plan on changing the characters age thereby really fictionalizing then she's playing more than TWICE her age. And all the male leads are almost twice her age. It boggles a bit.

    She's a good actress though and it'll be interesting to see how she plays it.

    Jennifer is my BFF fo sho. She is unbelizeable!

    I can agree with the miscasting in SLP, I never read the book, but from what I heard her character was a lot older. When I saw the movie I thought she had been cast to play someone in their mid 20's, not portraying her actual age. Whatever it was, I see the issue there.

    The thing with Anne is that she comes across as a huge facade. Nothing about her seems genuine or real, everything she says and does is like a carefully constructed act in order to make the public think that she is this humble, nerdy, down to earth, oh shucks actress.
    If she owned who she was and gave us a glimpse of that person I would definitely reconsider my dislike for her. But as it stands, she is still the same, insufferable, "who me?!" Ann with an E.

    And really? You think Jennifer Lawrence face planted on live, national television at the most prestigious event for her profession, on purpose? If that really is what happened, then she deserves that damn Oscar every year for fooling the entire world into thinking she is the badass person that she is.

    I can't believe I am the only one who thought - her fee just went up for the Hunger Games sequel(s) still left to shoot. Then I thought of Liam & Miley and wondered what they thought and what kind of WTF looks they had on their face when she won...and I had a rather large, satisfied grin.

  102. Sherry3:53 PM

    Right Pink Palace? And it almost seems like she shouldn't even continue with that franchise, like it's almost beneath her now that she has her Oscar. I do wonder if they'll try to renegotiate her fee.

    But one thing for sure is at least she has stuff lined up and will avoid the Oscar slump that so frequently happens when one wins that coveted Oscar. For women at least. Doesn't seem to affect men though.

    Before I get started:

    *climbs ladder to roof of CDAN building, pushes door open in spite of snow piled against it, shovels path to water tower, turns on Iron Man signal*

    OK...now, where was I? Oh, yeah...

    A site I like to read a lot during movie awards season is Awards Daily; I've been following them since they were Oscar Watch back in the day, before AMPAS came after them and necessitated a name change, and overall I've enjoyed it a great deal. Even when I don't necessarily agree with the people who run the site and/or the commenters, it's still an interesting place to follow the long and winding road to Oscar. This year, though...oy...*holds throbbing head; goes in search of Advil*

    A number of people were Really Not Happy with how the awards finally turned out, and I understand feeling that way; yes, there's definitely an issue with ageism and sexism in Hollywood, and that needs to change. Unfortunately, well...the discussion became a bit heated, and after reading enough of it, I finally felt compelled to get on my own soapbox:

    http://www.awardsdaily.com/blog/2013/02/25/old-white-guys-prefer-hot-young-babes/

    Read some of the other Oscar-related threads if you want to get the full context of my rant; if you're a JLaw fan, though, you might want to pour a stiff drink or pop some Ambien first, because I'd rather not be responsible for anyone's blood pressure spikes. Anyway, I put in my rather-more-than-$.02-worth, so here's hoping I don't end up dodging too much abuse, eh? *sigh*

    (Hi, Himmmm! Thought you might appreciate that I gave you a shout-out in the midst of my ranting, so I turned the light on for you...Oh, and you guys were all way too cute last night. :-)

    JL only won the Oscar because Harvey bribed and bullied a win for her. Dont' get me wrong, she does have talent but her role was nothing special. Actresses such as Kate Winslet or Reese Witherspoon could have played it in their sleep. Yes, she is popular thanks to the X-Men and Hunger Games franchise but let's face it, she hasn't had the sole reponsibility of carrying a film on her own. I feel that Selena will be a test of her star power, where she and not Brad will get top billing. If the film tanks, she will not doubt get the blame. BTW, was Bradley that po'd because she won that he couldn't have gotten up and helped her after she tripped? Thank goodness, Hugh Jackman was gracious enough to help her.
