When I first saw that Jennifer Lawrence was going to play someone name ?Marita,? I honestly thought Hollywood had gone too far and cast J-Law as a Hispanic woman. But it?s not so. The Marita in question is Ilona Marita Lorenz, a half-German and half-American woman. As a young girl, she lived in WWII-era Nazi Germany and she and her mother were forced into a concentration camp. After the war, Marita traveled with her ship captain father. Marita and her father landed in Havana, Cuba in 1959, just after the Cuban Revolution. She met Fidel Castro when she was just 19 years old, and they began an affair. And there?s a lot more. This is the woman Jennifer Lawrence will be playing.
After starring in a film inspired by the life of Miracle Mop creator Joy Mangano, Jennifer Lawrence is ready to tackle another real-life woman. The actress, who received her fourth Oscar nomination last week, is attached to portray Marita Lorenz in Marita, a hot pitch from Eric Warren Singer, co-writer of American Hustle.
Sony Pictures, moving aggressively, picked up the project from the Oscar-nominated scribe in a competitive situation. Marita centers on Lorenz and how she met and began an affair with Cuban leader Fidel Castro in 1959 when she was 19 years old. After becoming pregnant and having an abortion, Lorenz left Cuba and joined anti-communists in the U.S., where she was recruited by the CIA for an assassination mission. In 1960, she returned to Cuba to carry out the mission but, according to lore, yielded to love.
(Lorenz had quite the life, by the way. She also had an affair with a Venezuelan dictator, claimed to have been involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy and spied on diplomats for the FBI in the 1970s. She wrote two autobiographies and lives in Maryland.)

Do I think Jennifer Lawrence is the ideal candidate to play Marita? No, I do not. Do I think she?s the worst candidate? Not really. It could be much worse. They could have cast Nicole Kidman, you know? My big takeaway is that this is more about the idiot hive-mind of Hollywood, and J-Law is just That Girl, the one who gets the first look at every single female role ages 16 to 45. Every studio head is like ?Get me J-Law!? This sounds like a decent bio-pic, but I would probably be more interested in it if they cast someone else, I guess. You can see a photo of Marita here.

| | Jennifer Lawrence in red Dior at the Golden Globes: flattering or fug? | | Added 8 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Controversial opinion: I hated Jennifer Lawrence?s Dior gown this year. I get that she?s the hottest actress out there and of course she?s paired with the most elite design house in the world, but I don?t think Dior has done her many favors over the years. This is a good example of that. My thought is that it was an either/or situation: Dior could have done the retro ?shift? top part and no cut-outs, or they could have done cut-outs without the shelf top. Putting both together on what amounts to column dress was a mistake. I also thought the neckline was too high on her, which was made worse by the diamond bib necklace ? she was going for ?long-necked swan? but it has an ostrich effect. One good thing: she didn?t fall! She also won Best Actress in a Comedy/Musical for Joy, beating her BFF and co-presenter Amy Schumer. Like Ricky Gervais said, it?s like neither of them has ever had a friend before.
As for Amy Schumer, she wore this Prabal Gurung. I mean? I ended up feeling sorry for a little bit? I don?t mean that in a condescending way at all. It was a big night for her, she was nominated for a Golden Globe for a film role ? her first film role! ? and she wanted to look Golden-Globe-appropriate. She didn?t want to look like a ?trainwreck.? I like that she took it seriously, it?s just that she veered too far and ended up looking dowdy. Like, I could see this on a GOP wife. So? I?ll give her credit for actually trying and taking it seriously, but next time, she should have some fun with it. Last thing: enough with the ?raunchy? act on the red carpet. We?ve already heard you say ?vagina? like a million times.

| | Jennifer Lawrence smells like wine & she created a 'chili pizza sandwich' | | Added 8 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

I?ve been trying to tamp down my expectations for Sunday?s Golden Globes, just because it feels like the fashion drama is going to be severely muted (that?s just the vibe I?m getting). But then I remembered: Jennifer Lawrence is going to be there! YAY! She?ll probably wear some hideous Dior mess, but at least it will be something fun to talk about. Anyway, Glamour has released a video to go along with J-Law?s slutty-power-lesbian cover story, and of course, the video includes tons of Classic J-Law moments. She smells like wine! She has cramps! She invented a pizza sandwich! Oh, J-Law. You really are America?s Fart-Soaked Sweetheart. She even starts out by saying, ?Hi, I’m Jennifer Lawrence. Have you been hiding under a rock? How would you not know that?? And it just gets better from there. Some highlights (the video is at the end of the post):
Her signature scent: “Red wine. I’m sure it’s always seeping from my pores. I smell like a Cabernet.”
Women are stronger than men: ?Men get sick and it?s just ?uugghhh!? We have to deal with being sick once a month and life goes on. We?re a lot more physically tough I think, than men, and we don?t get a lot of credit for that. And I?m not saying that because I?m cramping like a pregnant lady right now.?
Her favorite curse word: “F?kery? I feel like everyone gets that. This is a bunch of f?kery. It’s not technically a word, but it makes complete sense. And it comes out of my mouth a lot.”
Her advice for her middle-school self. “School is hard, being a teenager is awful, I wouldn?t go back in time for anything. So I guess I would just say, this is gonna suck. There’s nothing you can do about it, but you will grow out of it one day and become an adult, and everything will be better. But! You get zits your whole life. Nobody ever tells you that.”
Her favorite food invention: “It’s called a chili pizza sandwich. You have a piece of pizza and you put chili in it, noodles in it, like southern chili, and then another piece of pizza and then you eat it like a sandwich. And I was totally sober. Completely sober.?
[From Glamour]
I don?t think I understand the framework of the chili pizza sandwich. So, you start with one slice of pizza, then add noodles and chili, then you top that with another piece of pizza, and then you eat the whole thing like a sandwich? That sounds disgusting. Why not just eat a slice of pizza with a side dish of chili? How farty do you have to be? Last thing: she?s absolutely right, ?f?kery? is a great word.

For a few years, I?ve gone back and forth on Jennifer Lawrence. If you just read the headlines, she can come across as try-hard, perhaps even annoying. But over the past few months, I?ve read so many interviews with her and I just have to admit: she?s a national treasure. Even at her worst, she?s a treasure. Jennifer covers the new issue of Glamour and the interview is SO funny. You have to get into her self-deprecating rhythm, but once you do, you?ll find yourself giggling in spite of yourself. I actually think J.Law is a throwback to another era, like she?s Carole Lombard or Mae West, and she has a sassy one-liner for nearly every situation. Some highlights from the Glamour interview:
Her Kentucky roots: ?My cousin and I were talking last night about what we wanted to do with our dead bodies. And I?m like, ?I want my ashes scattered on Lake Cumberland.? And when I said it out loud, I was like, ?Wow. You really are still rooted in your redneck [ways]. But basically it?s a certain grit. Everything?s very family oriented. Nobody knows or cares about designers. I care! But I didn?t used to.?
Her style: ?Slutty power lesbian. That is literally what I say to a stylist. [Laughs.] I don?t know if that?s offensive? first of all, Dior is its own house that?s very feminine and beautiful; this past press tour every dress was just phenomenal. So you don?t see me as a slutty power lesbian on the red carpet a lot, because I?m embodying the Dior woman, which is an honor.? But [also] I?ve got t-ts and an ass. And there are things that are made for skinny people?like a lot of embroidery, or it covers a lot?and those make me look fat. I have to show the lumps. If you have boobs, you have to show, like, ?These are boobs. This isn?t cellulite.? Not that there?s anything wrong with that.?
Her wage gap essay: ?The women?s pay gap is a real thing that a lot of people don?t know about. It hasn?t been in our consciousness; it wasn?t in mine. I don?t think it was Sony?s fault. I don?t think it was anybody?s fault. I wanted to open up about how my mentality got in my way? Sony?s a business. You?re not gonna give somebody more money if they don?t ask for it. They?ve got to fit a million movie stars into one movie. They?re trying to realistically make this happen. You know, [after the Lenny essay came out] my agent was like, ?God, I feel like I look like a terrible agent.? Well, no, because you have to do everything I say. And I said, ?Settle.? ?Cause I just wanted to do the movie; it wasn?t about money to me at the time. But all the actors were doing that. None of us were getting our [usual] quotes. But the difference in who was getting a little less, and a lot less, than their quote was very vast. And I wanted to write about how I got in my own way. ?Cause I assume that in negotiating, the men were tough as balls.?
Speaking up about her hacked photos: ?If I was quiet, it would have seemed like I was ashamed. And I wasn?t ashamed; I was enraged. Not once have I felt like I ?learned a lesson.? I didn’t do anything wrong! Even I’ve defended myself by saying I was in a relationship with a wonderful man for five years. But even if I wasn’t, even if I [just] went on a date with a guy?it doesn?t matter what the situation is. It’s your body. And you can do whatever you want.?
The shooting at Planned Parenthood: ?It?s so awful?. It isn?t an attack on abortions; it?s an attack on women. Because Planned Parenthood is so much more [than abortion]. My mom was really religious with me when I was young. She?s not so much anymore. And I wouldn?t have been able to get birth control if it weren?t for Planned P. I wouldn’t have been able to get condoms and birth control and all these things I needed as a normal teenager who was growing up in a Jesus house. And now [gestures widely] I am a successful woman who has not had a pregnancy?But seriously. What harm comes from supplying people with birth control, condoms, Pap smears, and cancer screenings??
She?s not misunderstood: ?I don?t feel like I?m misunderstood. I feel like I?m over-paid-attention-to. I?m not trying to be a GIF. I?m not trying to be a picked-up-on-Twitter quote. All I’m trying to do is act. And I have to promote these movies. And I am, at the end of the day, I guess, a f–king lunatic. So if you record what I?m saying, it?s gonna be goofy. What do I do? What do I do? I’m just a girl, sitting in front of the world and asking them to forgive her for speaking.
[From Glamour]
There are about a million other interesting/funny quotes. She talks about how it?s okay for women to not feel fulfilled by motherhood, she says that Larry David turns her on, she says that she would love nothing more than to be able to go without being photographed for three months, and she would love to be able to stop falling down. I love what she says about the hacked photos, what she says about wage inequality, what she says about Planned Parenthood, all of it. National treasure.

| | Jennifer Lawrence on New Year's Eve: 'I always end up drunk & disappointed' | | Added 8 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

You guys don?t even want to know how I plan to spend my New Year?s Eve, nor would you be interested in hearing how I?ve spent the last five NYEs. Let?s say my plans tend to involve no alcohol and a good night?s sleep. In my youth, I would do the staying-up-and-partying thing on NYE, but you do get to a certain age where ?looking for somewhere to pee at a crowded party? isn?t how you want to spend your New Year?s Eve. But I am much older than Jennifer Lawrence. J-Law is still in the flush of youth, and as such, she still tries to party for her NYEs. She ends up disappointed though. Drunk and disappointed. On a pre-taped appearance on the NYE edition of The Graham Norton Show, J-Law chatted about that and? puking, of course.
She hates NYE: ?I really hate it. I’ve never had a good one. Everyone’s chasing a good time and it’s always a disappointment. I plan on doing nothing and then if something lands in my lap…but I always end up drunk and disappointed? Drunk and Disappointed should be the title of my memoir!”
Her biggest Hollywood mishaps: ?I am a puker. When I get stressed and exhausted I just vomit. I was driving with my publicist the other day and had to roll down the window and I puked all down the side of the car. It was in front of all the paparazzi?I painted New York! And I threw up at Madonna’s party?on the porch!”
Her early days as a model: “You’ll never see the pictures I did for Abercrombie & Fitch. They wanted natural pictures so they made us play football on the beach. The other models played football in a pretty way but not me! My face was bright red and I was sweaty with flaring nostrils. One of the girls even yelled, ‘Get her away from me!’ And, when my agent asked why the pictures hadn’t been used, their only response was to send the pictures…you won’t see them in a store, for sure!”
[From E! News]
It wouldn?t be a Jennifer Lawrence interview if she didn?t talk about farting, puking or peeing, preferably all three. This girl and her bodily functions. That being said, I really did laugh out loud at her description of her modeling photos. Like, I could actually imagine it. The other models were trying to look hot while they were playing pretend football and J-Law was actually playing football and she was playing to win. Abercrombie SHOULD use those photos.
As for her terrible New Year?s Eve experiences? she and I are kindred spirits. She could come to my house and we could watch some old Inspector Lynley episodes on DVD whilst drinking Diet Pepsi and eating discounted Christmas chocolate, perhaps even a McFlurry. Oops, I revealed my NYE plans after all!

While people all over the globe are preparing to ring in 2016 with parties and pals, Jennifer Lawrence has a very different perspective regarding New Year?s Eve celebrations.
During her interview on ?The Graham Norton Show,? the ?Hunger Games? star revealed, ?I really hate it. I've never had a good one. Everyone's chasing a good time and it's always a disappointment. I plan on doing nothing and then if something lands in my lap...but I always end up drunk and disappointed."
Lawrence also discussed some of her embarrassing mishaps since becoming one of the hottest ladies in showbiz- "I am a puker. When I get stressed and exhausted I just vomit. I was driving with my publicist the other day and had to roll down the window and I puked all down the side of the car. It was in front of all the paparazzi?I painted New York! And I threw up at Madonna's party?on the porch!"

Jennifer Lawrence had a pretty great Christmas holiday. First, she spent the holiday in Louisville, Kentucky, her hometown. A few days before Christmas, she went to Kosair Children’s Hospital and spent hours visiting with sick kids. She didn?t even publicize the visit herself ? we only know she spent hours at the hospital because the kids and the kids? parents posted photos of her to social media.
J-Law?s big awards-baity film, Joy, also opened over the long Christmas holiday. While no one expected Star Wars numbers, this film was seen as a ?test? of J-Law?s non-Hunger Games star power. And she delivered. Well, she met expectations. Joy opened with $17.5 million this weekend and analysts think the film will probably break $100 million when all is said and done, especially if Jennifer walks away with a Best Actress Oscar nomination. As for the actual awards? Jennifer will not be getting much for Joy. This might be one of those occasions when there?s a lot of affection for the star of the film but not much affection for the actual film. Joy?s reviews were mixed, let?s say that. It?s currently sitting at 57% at Rotten Tomatoes.
And finally, J-Law had something gross/funny to reveal about Bradley Cooper, her frequent costar and friend:
Your Adorably Potty Mouthed BFF Jennifer Lawrence is once again Getting Real with interviewers about what it’s like to be a celebrity. This time, it involves her frequent co-star, Bradley Cooper.
“When we were doing our dance lessons together, I’m pretty sure he sweats from his butt first,” she told KISS FM. “You know, you’ve got pit stains everywhere but like his butt would start sweating and I’m like, ‘Is your butt sweating before your armpits are sweating?’”
Unfortunately, they didn’t have long conversations about how his butt is 90-percent sweat glands. “We didn’t, you know, have long conversations about it. It’s just something I kind of like clocked.”
[From Cosmo]
That?s embarrassing. That?s an embarrassing thing to reveal about your friend/costar. And dancing is aerobic, of course you?re going to sweat. It would be like working out at the gym with your friend and then telling the world that your friend gets super-sweaty on the treadmill. Anyway, at least we now know why Bradley Cooper wears booty shorts: it?s because he needs to air out his sweaty butt.

Stepping out for some media duties, Jennifer Lawrence paid a visit to ?The Late Show with Stephen Colbert? on Monday night (December 14).
The ?Hunger Games? hottie talked about her recent discover of The Golden Record, noting that she?s not a fan of sending information about Earth into outer space.
Lawrence argued, ?Based on history, when we find each other, we kill each other! I don?t feel like aliens are going to be like, ?Oh, great, let?s get along!? Have you seen a Tom Cruise movie?!? Check the clip!

Here are some assorted photos of Jennifer Lawrence out and about in NYC over the past few days. She?s been wearing that grey and cream coat a lot and I know why: because it?s FAB. Great coat! Jennifer has been making the rounds to promote Joy, which has already earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in a Comedy. She stopped by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night ? here?s a lengthy clip of her interview:
She joked about losing her Southern accent (I don?t think she?s lost it completely), whether her publicist hates her, and puking, of course, because she?s J-Law and she has to talk about bodily functions. She got a stomach virus while working on Joy in Boston last year and this is what she said:
“I got a stomach virus. I was puking and the poor guy?I had to make out with somebody?we were like spinning and I’d start puking and then I’d like do mouth wash and be like, ‘Hey, you ready?? Licking my chops like, ‘Ugh, let’s do it!’ I puked yesterday. I’m a puker. I’m a big-time puker. I think I have, like, nervous…I think that I don’t stop working, because I’m a show pony. I don’t have a choice. So, I just keep going, I think, until eventually my body’s just like, ‘If we don’t make her barf or pass out, she won’t stop.? I get, like, Lindsay Lohan grade exhaustion, but without any drugs or alcohol. I’m always in bed early, but I’m still tired.”
[From E! News]
While J-Law is America?s Farty Sweetheart?, I think it?s a mistake to name-check Lindsay Lohan in any way. We?re almost done with Lindsay at this point ? she?s not even worth the effort to use as a punchline. And just you wait, now that Jennifer has used Lindsay?s name in an unkind way, Lindsay will totally sue her.
Also: I?m so glad I?m not a puker. I?ve been battling a bad cold the past few days and I coughed so much yesterday that I almost threw up, and I said a little thank you to the universe because I was able to hold it back. I can’t even imagine puking on the reg.
