Because everything J-Law says is unfiltered and awesome
One thing that's certain about actress Jennifer Lawrence: She calls it like she sees it. Another thing: We all love her for it! So, in honor of the release of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, enjoy these amazing life nuggets from the movie's star (and everyone's dream bestie).
Life Lesson #1: Embrace Yourself As Is
"You look how you look," she said in a Yahoo! fireside chat earlier this month. "Be comfortable. What are you going to do? Be hungry every single day to make other people happy? That's just dumb."
Life Lesson #2: Always Search for the Silver Lining
Regarding her spill on her way to accept her Oscar: "Anybody that makes fun of me, I'm like, 'Yeah, and then I got touched by Hugh Jackman,'" she told Extra's Maria Menounos.
Life Lesson #3: Be Kind Not Catty to Other Women
"Why can't we just be nice?" she said on Good Morning America yesterday morning. "It's like, we grow up, and then we get right back into high school."
Life Lesson #4: Know Your Strengths
"I'm the fastest pee-er ever," she told Rolling Stone in 2012. "I'm famous for it." (We think she has a few other talents, too… But nothing wrong with owning this one!)
Life Lesson #5: Strive For Strength and Health
"I'm never going to starve myself for a part," she said in Elle's December 2012 cover story. "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."
Life Lesson #6: Go for the Bold Haircut
"It was really impulsive," she also said yesterday on GMA. "I was just like, I'm cutting it! And then it was just all gone."
