Jennifer Lawrence’s most frank and sarcastic quotes ever
Jennifer Lawrence is certainly not your average actress. There’s quite a charm to the woman. Her life has been a powerful message – a message she delivers awkwardly with a whole bunch of sarcasm. Let’s see how sarcastic JLaw gets with her frankest and most honest quotes.
Jennifer hating diets
- “If anybody even tries to whisper the word ‘diet,’ I’m like, ‘You can go f**k yourself.”
- “I hate saying, ‘I like exercising’ – I want to punch people who say that.”
- “Be comfortable. What are you going to do? Be hungry every single day to make other people happy? That’s just dumb.”
- “I don’t really diet or anything. I’m miserable when I’m dieting and I like the way I look. I’m really sick of all these actresses looking like birds…I’d rather look a little chubby on camera and look like a person in real life, than look great on screen and look like a scarecrow in real life.”
- “In Hollywood, I’m obese. I’m considered a fat actress. I eat like a caveman. I’ll be the only actress that doesn’t have anorexia rumors! I’m never going to starve myself for a part. I’m invincible. I don’t want little girls to be like ‘Oh, I want to look like Katniss, so I’m going to skip dinner!’
- “That’s something I was really conscious of during training, when you’re trying to get your body to look exactly right. I was trying to get my body to look fit and strong—not thin and underfed.”
- “I think it’s really important for girls to have people to look up to and to feel good about themselves. I want my body to look fit and strong, not thin and underfed.”
- “At the end of the day, there’s probably nothing that makes me feel better than junk food and reality TV.”
Jennifer being clumsy
- “I spilled milk this morning. Last night I spilled red wine all over the rug. All I want to be able to do is just walk from one place to another without falling!”
- “I had to have running training because I’m not a very good runner. I run weird. The hardest stunt is probably basic running. And trying not to hit myself in the face with my bow, are my two greatest challenges.”
- “You guys are just standing up because I fell, and it’s so embarrassing.”
- “Anybody that makes fun of me (after falling down), I’m like, ‘Yeah, and then I got touched by Hugh Jackman’
Jennifer being JLaw
- “It doesn’t matter how much money I make, unfairness in prices really fires me up. Like shopping in L.A and a T-shirt costs $150.”
- “If I don’t have anything to do all day, I might not even put my pants on.”
- “I don’t like going out that much. I’m kind of an old lady. After it’s 11, I’m like, ‘Don’t these kids ever get tired?’ When I’m out, I think about my couch. Like, ‘It would be awesome to be on it right now. I bet there’s an episode of Dance Moms on.’”
- “I really would not call myself a fashion icon. I would call myself somebody who gets dressed by professionals. [It’s like], ‘Dance, monkey, dance’ right on the red carpet. I would call me more of a monkey.”
- “I’m a horrible dancer! I’m like a dad at prom. I look like Gumby getting electrocuted.”
- “This (Award function) isn’t like an auction, right? You guys aren’t going to take it (her first Oscar) away?”
- “Helena Bonham Carter and Jeff Bridges waved at me. And, of course, it would be absurd if they were waving at me, so I just stared at them. I stared at both of them. And they were like, ‘Alright, fine.’
- “Once I’m obsessed with somebody, I’m terrified of them instantly. I’m not scared of them – I’m scared of me and how I will react. Like, for instance, one time someone was introducing me to Bill Maher, and I saw Meryl Streep walk into the room, and I literally put my hand right in Bill Maher’s face and said, ‘Not now, Bill!’ and I just stared at Meryl Streep. I just creepily stared at her
- “He (John Stamos) was at a party, and I turned into a perverted guy. I was like following him into rooms and staring at his ass… He asked me if I was on mushrooms and I said, ‘No. I’m dead sober. This is just me.”
- “It’s so scary. And then I end up getting so nervous that I get like [I am] now. I get really hyper. [Squeals.] So then I go in interviews and I’m like, ‘I’m like a chihuahua! I’m shaking and peeing!’ And then afterwards, I’m like, ‘I just talked about peeing on the red carpet.’”
- “I always feel like an idiot every time I fly first class because I’m a kid. And I just sit there, and everyone’s got their newspapers and they’re on the computer, and I’m like, ‘Can I get a coloring book, please? Can I get some crayons?’”
- I don’t like going out that much. I’m kind of an old lady. After it’s 11, I’m like, ‘Don’t these kids ever get tired?’ When I’m out, I think about my couch. Like, ‘It would be awesome to be on it right now. I bet there’s an episode of Dance Moms on.”
Jennifer being successful
- “Oh, what does it (Golden Globes Award) say? ‘I Beat Meryl’!”
- “I like the financial security because I know how hard it is for so many people who struggle to earn a living. I’m grateful I don’t have to worry about money and I can live very freely and do something I love and get paid very well to do it. I tell my friends to slap me if they ever think I’m getting full of myself.”
- “I put in my time; I lived in a rat-infested apartment when I was 14 and I was told ‘No’ many times. I put my blood, sweat and tears into all of this. It’s easy to look from the outside and see my career grew very fast but there was a time before that career when I was working for it and I definitely wouldn’t have wanted that time to go on any longer.”
- “I have an amazing group of friends who are not in the business, who I trust…Because I don’t feel any different…So I surround myself with people who don’t fake laugh at my jokes.”
- “I learned that you can’t have any expectations with life. You never know what’s going to happen.”
- “Even as far back as when I started acting at 14, I never considered failure.”
