Jennifer Lawrence was once labelled too "fat" for Hollywood.
Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence has vowed to never ever diet again after being ordered to lose weight by producers on one of her first film shoots even threatened with the sack if she didn't slim down instantly.
"I was young. 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.she said to Harper's Bazaar UK:
"They brought in pictures of me where I was basically naked, and told me to use them as motivation for my diet. It was just that. [Someone brought it up recently] 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. she adds
" 'You really still care about that?' Yeah. I was a little girl. I was hurt. It doesn't matter what accolades you get. I know it'll never happen to me again. If anybody even tries to whisper the word 'diet', I'm like, 'You can go f**k yourself.' " Jennifer told the protagonist in disbelief.
The 23-year-old Lawrence was the second-youngest ever winner of the Academy Award for Best Actress and she was so shocked with her win in February, she accidentally tripped up the stairs on her way to collect her golden statuette.
Remembering Oscars night where she was honoured for her performance in 'Silver Linings Playbook' Jennifer went on to say, "[Another person said] 'Other people are getting up and owning the stage and you sound like a stuttering idiot. Pull it together.' And I said, 'I'm not doing it on purpose, I'm uncomfortable and when people get uncomfortable they resort to their s**t.
"I make awkward jokes and stutter. That was actually a moment when I really wanted it to be special. That was not the time I wanted to be the Down-home Girl. I wanted to be graceful."
