Jennifer Lawrence snubs Hollywood`s weight pressure

Thin is not beautiful for actress Jennifer Lawrence who eats normally and doesn`t worry about the `size zero` fad in Hollywood.

Los Angeles: Thin is not beautiful for actress Jennifer Lawrence who eats normally and doesn`t worry about the `size zero` fad in Hollywood.
"Oh god, yes, I am so tired of the lollipops. I mean, if I looked like that I wouldn`t be tired of it, obviously, but it`s hilarious, the way I am supposedly the overweight one," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Lawrence as saying. "Like, they (the paparazzi) got me at the movies yesterday and the caption read something like, `Curvy star cannot wait to dig into a tub of popcorn`. I mean come on! I`m just a normal girl who likes to eats," she added. The 22-year-old takes the responsibility of playing teen idol Katniss Everdeen in "The Hunger Games" very seriously and wants to be a good role model to her fans. She admits she has little in common with her tough on-screen alter-ego and is far from a natural leader in real life. "I guess people expect that of me, and if I had to kill something for survival, maybe I would and yeah, maybe I was a tomboy when I was growing up. But I`m definitely a girl now. "Of course, there`s a responsibility I`m aware of. In one sense, luckily, it comes naturally because I can`t stay out beyond midnight. I don`t really have an exciting life. But if you mean, am I natural leader? No. I just appear that way," she said. IANS
