Here are some photos from the Paris premiere of ?mother!? Jennifer Lawrence and Darren Aronofsky were seemingly the only people from the film in Paris to promote the film – Javier Bardem had to stay behind in Venice to promote another film, and I guess Ed Harris and Michelle Pfeiffer won?t be doing a ton of stuff to promote the film at all (to be fair, Ed Harris has done nothing so far). So, what we?re getting is another J-Law fashion show. I enjoyed her J.Lo-esque Versace number in London, mostly because I hoped it was a signal that she wasn?t going to wear endless Dior pieces. But of course she went with Dior for the Paris premiere. Even though it?s sort of bland, I do like this gown. It?s pretty. It feels like it?s a little bit wasted on a low-key Paris premiere though – this would have been a good gown to give to a TV star for the Emmys next weekend.
Meanwhile, as we?ve been discussing for a few months, it does seem like J-Law has a thing for somewhat abusive directors. In her Vogue interview, Jen said that Darren Aronofsky made her keep filming even after she tore her diaphragm. There are stories circulating that he bullied her constantly during filming too. So what does Aronofsky have to say about it? From his Guardian interview:
On the reports that he likes to ?break down? his actors: ?No, no. It?s not about breaking them down. They break themselves down. They?re game. Actors? Sometimes they forget, but I think the original reason they started acting was to be able to cry in front of class. Sometimes they forget that, when they become big action movie stars, because that?s more about modelling than acting. But they love it, really. So I?m always looking for actors who want to roll up their sleeves and let loose and just cry. Javier?s not afraid of crying; he?ll do anything. Jennifer, completely the same. She?s still very young; not jaded in the least. And, yeah, she was scared on this movie, because she knew she was going to have to go for some big emotions.?
Jennifer tore her diaphragm: ?Yeah, she ended up tearing her diaphragm. She was hyperventilating. Because of the emotion.? Is it true that he then immediately ordered her to do the whole scene again? The director snorts. ?Well, yeah. Pull it together. That?s very British, right? Come on, let?s go.? And how was Lawrence with such behaviour? Did she tolerate it? ?No, no,? he says, apparently worried I?m getting the wrong end of the stick. ?I mean, we gave her time to recover. The thing is that she?d been thinking about that scene way too long, and it got all up in her head. So then the emotions flooded her and I saw what was happening ? because I?m experienced ? and was able to get the camera in the right place. The shot was originally on her back and I flipped the whole thing, let her recover and then said, ?Get the camera on her face, right now?, because that?s the kind of emotion that you never, ever see.?
[From The Guardian]
Basically he?s saying that when his lead actress hurt herself because she was so consumed by getting the performance right, his first concern was flipping the camera around to film her in pain and make sure that he captured her true distress. I really don?t understand directors like this, and yes, I know that many brilliant directors treat their actors this way. Stanley Kubrick did it too – driving his actors to madness with endless takes, wanting to see ?real? emotion and pain instead of ?acted? emotion and pain. It just? sucks. It sucks that Jennifer is dating Aronofsky.

This was me, looking through these photos of Jennifer Lawrence at the London premiere of ?mother!?: ?Wow, that?s a different look for her, is it possible that Dior finally did right by their golden girl?? This was me, discovering that the designer ID of the dress: ?Oh, of course I like it. IT?S NOT DIOR. It?s Versace.? I don?t know if Dior refused to send J-Law a dress for the London premiere or if she simply felt like wearing something other than a ?princess dress,? but I?m so glad she changed it up. This Versace looks like something Jennifer Lopez would wear or has already worn, and I mean that as a compliment: at this point in her life, J-Law needs to start leaving those tulle skirts and Cinderella-looking Dior gowns by the wayside. Everyone needs a little J.Lo in their lives.
Jen told Empire Magazine that she threw the script for ?mother!? across the room when she first read it and texted Darren Aronosky, ?There is something seriously wrong with you.? The next day, she texted him again: ?By the way, it?s a masterpiece.? She says now that, ?There was a full 24 hours where everybody thought I had turned it down in a really huge way. But it was like reading poetry or scripture, or Darren?s diaries: excerpts from a f***ed-up mind.? Jen also gave an interview to a British TV show which aired last night. Here?s a clip where Jen talks about pay discrimination and fear of women:
?Why are we so afraid of women??

Here are some photos of Jennifer Lawrence and that cast of ?mother!? at the Venice Film Festival. I?ve been writing it as ?Mother!? but the ?m? really is lowercase on purpose, apparently. Jennifer and her director lover Darren Aronofsky arrived in Venice a few days ago, along with castmates Javier Bardem (bueno) and Michelle Pfeiffer (guapa). First a note about the fashion – at the evening premiere, Jennifer wore this friggin? Dior ballgown which I flat-out HATE. Hate, hate, hate. At this point, J-Law honoring her Dior contract just triggers my gag reflex, because she inevitably gets the most twee, princess-y looks from the house and IT?S NOT WORKING. My kaiserdom for J-Law in a clean, simple Armani. Michelle kept it simple in a Michael Kors, btw.
As for mother! (God that title is annoying), Variety did an in-depth review after screening the film in Venice – go here to read. Some SPOILERS (just skip this paragraph if you don’t want even mild spoilers)…I found the Variety take very interesting, because the reviewer came away with this idea: the central mystery of the horror story is never answered. That mystery? Why Javier Bardem?s character is so hateful to his lovely young wife, played by J-Law. The reviews coming out of Venice are pretty good-to-mixed in general – go here for THR?s review, and here for Vanity Fair?s review. My take, having just skimmed the reviews? This film is not for me. And I find it creepy that J-Law ended up dating a writer-director who ?gave? her this part where she?s repeatedly punished for the crime of… renovating her house.
Here are some pics from the photocall earlier in the day. Jen wore a Giambattista Valli Resort 2018 dress which? should have been floor-length, then it would have been perfect. Whoever did her hair for the photocall did a bang-up job too.

When I was a kid, I was a barfer. I had a hair-trigger gag reflex, and if I felt even a little bit ill, I could barf at will just by thinking about it. Then I grew up. Certain smells still get to me and I?ll gag or dry-heave sometimes, but the last time I actually threw up was? years ago. When I had the Norovirus and I thought I was going to die. Not everyone is the same as me though. Some people never lose that ability to barf at will, just by thinking about it. Jennifer Lawrence is one of those people. J-Law has talked for years about her bodily functions (farting, pooping and her ability to pee anywhere) and she always has barfing stories. She?s a world-class barfer, in that I believe she?s probably barfed in every country she?s ever traveled to. So please enjoy this story about J-Law barfing at a Broadway show:
?The Hunger Games? star Jennifer Lawrence lost her lunch during a performance of Olivia Wilde?s Broadway show, ?1984,? on Monday night ? but it wasn?t the edgy play that made the megastar sick. Page Six has previously reported that theater fans have been regularly fainting and tossing their cookies at the intense Orwellian drama at the Hudson Theatre.
?Sending my love to those 4 people who fainted in the audience,? Wilde even tweeted in May with the disclaimer, ?Warning: this is not your grandma?s Broadway.?
The visceral reactions are apparently thanks in part to the show being ?loud, and people find it shocking,? a theater pro said. ?There is a particularly harrowing scene involving a rat.?
But on Monday night, a source told Page Six: ?Midway through the show, Jennifer Lawrence bolted from her seat. Several people saw her getting sick in the lobby. The ushers were very helpful and courteous in helping her out.? But a friend of Lawrence?s explained that the star?s reaction had nothing to do with the play but rather, ?She caught the stomach flu from her nephews.? The pal added that poor Lawrence is ?really sick.?
[From Page Six]
If Jennifer Lawrence is ?really sick,? then why didn?t she stay home and rest? Why did she go and infect an entire Broadway audience with the flu? And was she trying to make it to the bathroom and she just ended up barfing in the lobby? Yikes, those poor ushers. I can?t imagine already feeling sick but still dragging myself to a Broadway play? a play which is already becoming famous for making people sick. Incidentally, my gag reflex would probably be triggered if I watched a ?harrowing scene involving a rat? too. Why would you pay money to see this play?!?!

Jennifer Lawrence was in the passenger seat of a scary situation on Saturday. The 26-year-old actress, who was in Louisville, Kentucky visiting with family, experienced a harrowing flight on a private plane.
According to E! News, during the flight, which was headed for New Jersey’s Teterboro Airport, one of the plane’s engines failed at 31,000 feet. The pilots were forced to perform an emergency landing and arrived safely in Buffalo, New York. And, if being forced to make an emergency landing wasn’t scary enough, the jet’s second engine failed during the landing. Thankfully, no one was injured.
A spokeswoman for the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) told the Buffalo News that the jet, a Beechcraft 400 Beechjet, was diverted to the airport Saturday afternoon. She went on to say that two passengers and crew members were on board the plane, but did not say that Lawrence was among them. The FAA is currently investigating the cause of the engine failure.
What is it with celebrities and private planes? Ever since “the day the music died”, when Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper died in a plane crash, there have been so many other entertainers who lost their lives in small plane crashes. I mean, Jim Croce, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Otis Redding, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Aaliyah…the list goes on. Commercial air travel sucks, but if I were famous, I’d definitely opt for a big plane. Glad everyone’s okay.

I haven?t written about Jennifer Lawrence in two months. And when I did, it was a political-ish story about her reaction to Donald Trump. J-Law has been pretty quiet now for months, ever since she finished promoting Passengers in December. She?s been working in Budapest, and I haven?t missed her at all. In the middle of the awards-season, it actually struck me that this was the first time in years without Jennifer falling all over the place at an awards show. Let me clear: I actually sort of like J-Law and I?m an apologist for her about many things. But she needed to ?go away? for a while and let people miss her.
Something I actually forgot about was the fact that J-Law had started dating Darren Aronofsky last year. They apparently started up late in the summer, and while we haven?t heard much about them in months, they?re still together. They were photographed this week in New York.

There are a bunch of new Jennifer Lawrence stories and very few of them are actually interesting to me. The only one I really like is her Good Morning America interview this week, where she discussed why she felt the need to write that Vice essay immediately following the election. Jennifer?s essay wasn?t bad at all ? she was basically telling her fans ?don?t feel defeated, we still have work to do.? It wasn?t about seeking conciliation with an orange fascist or curling up and ignoring the world. Her argument was: we?re still fighting. Here?s the interview:
Jennifer told GMA:
?I didn?t mean to speak to only people who voted for Hillary, I meant to just speak to the divide ? for any presidential candidate, being very extreme is scary, left or right. For me, I was the star of the Hunger Games. So I had a lot of 12-year-olds and 11-year-olds and I know that they look up to me. I know that they?re listening to me and watching me. When the election happened, I couldn?t help but think of those girls who are 18. I completely understand when people say, ?Just shut up and act.? But for me there are times where I feel a real need to speak to those girls.?
While I have so many issues with J-Law these days, I?m totally fine with what she says here. Her thoughts were with her young fans, just as Hillary Clinton?s concession speech included a message to those girls and young women: you are valuable, you have worth, and your voice is vital, despite what you hear from President Deplorable.
As for the other Jennifer Lawrence stories? she appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Monday night. J-Law is a huge fan of the Real Housewife franchises, and she gets very involved in all of the manufactured drama, etc. Here are some clips. I would love to know who ?The Lady? is, and who in the world is ?Pickle???

SPOILERS for Passengers.
I wasn?t going to see Passengers in the theater anyway, but I?m definitely not going to see it now that the film is getting bad reviews all over the place. Entertainment Weekly gave the film a D+, and EW is in the business of supporting movie stars and these kinds of stupid space movies! Reviewers are using words like: grim, mess, stupid, icky, disaster, creepiness and stalkerish. In fact, most of the early reviews are focused (correctly) on the actual, central plot device at the heart of the film. This is pretty spoilery, so if you don?t want to know, don?t read past this paragraph.
The plot, as I?m sure you?ve seen from the trailers, is that Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence are part of a group of people who agree to spend 100 years in deep-space sleep and they?ll wake up in a new century in space or something. Pratt?s space pod malfunctions and he wakes up 90 years early. He gets lonely, being the only awake human on the spaceship. So he watches all of the hibernating girls and decides that Jennifer Lawrence is the one for him, so he sabotages her space pod, waking her up early too. So he decides that they should hang out and that she will be a good girlfriend/companion and her consent doesn?t really come into play whatsoever. NY Mag explains:
The reason Jennifer Lawrence woke up early is because Chris Pratt got lonely. Passengers begins with a mysterious malfunction in the sleeping pod of Pratt’s character, Jim Preston, which causes him to wake up 90 years before his spaceship is supposed to arrive on a new interstellar colony. For the first 30 minutes or so, Pratt wanders around the spaceship, trying to make peace with the fact that he?ll die before anyone else wakes up. He bonds with Michael Sheen?s robot bartender. He grows a beard. (Think Castaway, if it took place in an Apple Store.) One day, he sees Jennifer Lawrence?s character, Aurora Lane, asleep in her pod. He watches interviews she taped before setting out on the journey, becomes convinced that they belong together, and despite knowing that she?d also be doomed to die on the ship if he woke her up, he decides to do just that.
Much of what happens next involves the two leads developing a relationship while alone on the ship together, as well as dealing with the technical problems that start to plague the spaceship. Passengers? trailers have played up the sexy aspects of the film, lingering on shots of Pratt?s chiseled body or Jennifer Lawrence?s bedroom eyes. But despite what the film?s marketing implies, Passengers is really more of a horror movie, especially if you view it from Aurora’s perspective: Her character never asked to take part in the space rom-com that Jim has devised for her, and compounding matters, she doesn?t know that he woke her up on purpose.
Passengers does explore the fact (it?s not really a question) of Aurora’s lack of consent ? whether or not it succeeds is a matter for the reviewers. As you can deduce from the trailers, the film also introduces more action elements as the ship starts to malfunction. There are a few actual twists, which we won?t spoil here. But still, this is not exactly the movie you saw advertised, and we simply feel that it’s our duty to inform you that Passengers is darker than it seems. A lot darker. Like, wow.
[From NY Magazine]
If you couldn?t tell by the name ?Aurora,? this is supposed to be a futuristic twist on Sleeping Beauty. But unlike Sleeping Beauty?s forced hibernation because of an evil queen?s curse, this Aurora falls asleep by choice. And she?s woken up without her consent by a guy who wants to be her friend and bang her, because it?s all about him and his loneliness. Many of the early reviews are making this lack-of-consent the central problem of the film ? apparently, Pratt?s character seems stalkerish, creepy, predatory. So? yeah, don?t see this movie.

I can count, on one hand, the number of times I?ve peed outside in the open air. I?m a private-bathroom person (only child!) and I absolutely loathe peeing outdoors. Thinking back on it? I think it?s only been three times? And two of those times involved one ill-conceived camping trip. Obviously, Jennifer Lawrence is nothing like me. Jennifer Lawrence will pee and barf wherever she wants. And she?ll tell all of her peeing and barfing stories on national television, because she?s so real, you guys. Isn?t it SO funny that she?s so real? She?s so real that she destroys sacred rocks with her ass. And it?s so funny that she just pees on her mom?s lawn for no real reason. I?m not really sure what the point of this story is?
The gist is that Jennifer Lawrence brought a photo of herself and her mother, which features her mom sitting in a chair with a wine glass and Jennifer squatting behind her mom, peeing. Her mom is oblivious to that fact. Jennifer said: ?She has no idea, no clue. I went to pee and my friend got the phone because she knew I was peeing and then we both decided to leave my mom out of it.” What is the joke here? ?Isn?t it funny that we took a photo of your mom while you peed in the background and she had no idea?? Is that even a joke or a prank? But what really bugs me is what goes unsaid: why the hell is Jennifer Lawrence peeing on what appears to be a manicured lawn? Was she too lazy/drunk to simply walk inside the house to use the bathroom?

Here are some photos from the big, splashy premiere of Passengers in Hollywood last night. The star of the red carpet was easily Jennifer Lawrence, wearing this Dior gown. This Dior honestly seems like it would be better suited for an awards show, although this year, it?s looking like J-Law probably won?t be going to any awards shows because she?s not nominated for anything. She?s been nominated for an Oscar four times in the past six years, so it?s notable that this a rare J-Law-free awards season. As for the Dior itself? it?s pretty. It doesn?t feel overworked, which is a miracle. I even like the boob-heart embroidery. That being said, this is totally a cotillion dress.
Jennifer was joined by her costar Chris Pratt and Chris?s wife Anna Faris. Pratt wore a Dolce & Gabbana suit and Anna wore Reem Acra. I don?t mind a blonde in a pastel frock, although I take issue with the bust of this gown. Anna is a petite, small-chested woman? and this Reem Acra makes her look even smaller.
Michael Sheen also has a part in Passengers as a robot bartender. Isn?t that weird? Sheen is the best actor in the cast and he was relegated to playing a robot bartender. Anyway, Sheen came out with his still-happening girlfriend Sarah Silverman. I think they?re a weird couple but whatever. They seem to adore each other.
