Just when we think we can't love her any more than we already do…
Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence has opened up to Harper’s Bazaar about being called fat in her younger days.
Now one of the most sought after actresses in Hollywood, the 23-year-old told the magazine: “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.”

The star spoke to Harper's Bazaar for the November issue
She added that some people thought she should have forgotten about it now that she was so successful; “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. 'You really still care about that?' Yeah. I was a little girl. I was hurt.”
Lawrence, who stars as Katniss in the movie adaptation of The Hunger Games, features on the cover of the November issue and added that she is now confident to stand her ground against weight critics. She said: “If anybody even tries to whisper the word "diet", I’m like, "You can go f*ck yourself.”
Don’t ever change Jennifer.
