Oscar-winning actress <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/hilarious-and-sad-hollywood-a-lister-mocked-for-saying-tucker-carlson-haunts-her-nightmares/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jennifer Lawrence</a> claimed during a panel discussion that male directors often threw &#8220;the biggest hissy fits&#8221; on set, pushing back against the idea that women were more likely to let their emotions distract them from the job at hand.
Lawrence joined a <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/jennifer-lawrence-michelle-yeoh-actress-roundtable-1235282817/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hollywood Reporter roundtable</a> discussion that also included Danielle Deadwyler, Michelle Yeoh, Michelle Williams, Emma Corrin, and Claire Foy — and the group addressed a number of topics from how sexual abuse and trauma are portrayed in film to how far they would go to convince a director they wanted a specific part.
&#8220;When &#8216;Winter’s Bone&#8217; turned me down, they were doing L.A. casting that I went to, and they were like, &#8216;No, thank you,'&#8221; Lawrence recalled. &#8220;And then, they opened up casting in New York, and I flew to New York and just reentered like a stranger.&#8221;
Lawrence&#8217;s gamble payed off, and she eventually got the role — which she and the others agreed may have been in part because the directors were convinced she&#8217;d work harder because she&#8217;d shown that she really wanted it. &#8220;Maybe they were just scared at that point, and they were like, &#8216;OK.'&#8221;
But then the conversation turned to what it was like working with women at the helm of film projects — and Lawrence, who both produced and acted in &#8220;Causeway,&#8221; weighed in on that as well.
&#8220;It was just so interesting to be on a female-led movie. My producing partner and I were the lead producers. We had a female director [Lila Neugebauer],&#8221; she said. &#8220;The schedule made sense. There were no huge fights. If an actor had a personal thing and wanted to leave early, instead of going, &#8216;Oh! Well, we’d all love to leave early!&#8217; we’d put our heads together and go, &#8216;OK. How can we figure this out?'&#8221;
Lawrence went on to say that she didn&#8217;t mean to suggest that everyone agreed on every little thing — only that she believed disagreements were addressed in a more productive fashion when women were leading the discussion.
&#8220;We disagreed, and we listened to each other. Sometimes I was wrong and would learn that I was wrong, and sometimes I was right. It was incredible to not be around toxic masculinity. To get a little break from it,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And it did always just make us laugh about how we ended up with, &#8216;Women shouldn’t be in roles like this because we’re so emotional.&#8217; I mean, I’ve worked with Bryan Singer. I’ve seen emotional men. I’ve seen the biggest hissy fits thrown on set. [Neugebauer’s] my third female director, and they are the calmest, best decision-makers I’ve ever worked with. I absolutely love working with female directors.&#8221;

Jennifer Lawrence clarified her earlier remarks when she <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jennifer-lawrence-claims-nobody-had-ever-put-a-woman-in-the-lead-of-an-action-movie-before-hunger-games-theres-just-one-problem-with-that">falsely claimed</a> to be the first female led-action hero in &#8220;Hunger Games&#8221; in 2012 following the backlash over her comments and said that &#8220;it came out wrong.&#8221;
During an interview with the <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/jennifer-lawrence-female-led-action-films-1235278203/">Hollywood Reporter</a> on Thursday, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jennifer-lawrence">32-year-old actress</a> said when she said &#8220;nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie&#8221; prior to her landing the role of Katniss Everdeen in the hit dystopian movie, it wasn&#8217;t what she meant.
&#8220;That&#8217;s certainly not what I meant to say at all,&#8221; Lawrence explained. &#8220;I know that I am not the only woman who has ever led an action film. What I meant to emphasize was how good it feels.&#8221;
&#8220;And I meant that with Viola [Davis]— to blow past these old myths that you hear about … about the chatter that you would hear around that kind of thing,&#8221; she added. &#8220;But it was my blunder and it came out wrong. I had nerves talking to a living legend.&#8221;

Davis, did not push back against the claim, as the actress went on to say that it makes her so happy &#8220;every single time I see a movie come out that just blows through every one of those beliefs, and proves that it is just a lie to keep certain people out of the movies.

Jennifer Lawrence Clarifies First Female Led-Action Hero Remarks Following Backlash

Entertainment

Hollywood star Jennifer Lawrence is facing backlash after she falsely claimed that &#8220;nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie” prior to 2012’s &#8220;Hunger Games&#8221; — and Variety has since deleted its tweet in which she made that claim.
During a <a href="https://variety.com/2022/film/features/jennifer-lawrence-viola-davis-action-heroes-motherhood-1235451405/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Variety</a> Actors on Actors interview, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jennifer-lawrence'" target="_blank" rel="noopener">32-year-old</a> actress claimed she was the first woman ever to be cast in the lead role of an action film when she landed the part of Katniss Everdeen in the 2012 hit dystopian movie, which was not true, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jennifer-lawrence-claims-nobody-had-ever-put-a-woman-in-the-lead-of-an-action-movie-before-hunger-games-theres-just-one-problem-with-that" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
&#8220;I remember when I was doing &#8216;Hunger Games,&#8217; nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie because it wouldn&#8217;t work — because we were told girls and boys can both identify with a male lead, but boys cannot identify with a female lead,&#8221; Lawrence claimed.
Lawrence spoke with fellow actress Viola Davis, who did not push back against the claim.
Twitter users slammed the actress, noting all the famous female stars who had landed lead action roles for decades before Lawrence did, citing Sigourney Weaver in 1986’s “Aliens,” Angelina Jolie in 2001&#8217;s &#8220;Lara Croft: Tomb Raider,&#8221; and Uma Thurman in 2003’s “Kill Bill: Volume 1.”
One Twitter user <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/now/jennifer-lawrence-faces-backlash-claiming-190847716.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>, &#8220;She [Lawrence] can&#8217;t even really argue there was a regression before Hunger Games because female led action movies actually THRIVED in the 2000s with HUGE budgets. Franchises &amp; movie stars were made. Angelina, Uma, Lucy, Cameron, Drew, Milla, Kate etc. Without them she wouldn&#8217;t be here.&#8221;
&#8220;Sure glad nobody ever told that to Sigourney Weaver, Linda Hamilton or Uma Thurman. They&#8217;d be pretty upset,&#8221; another user <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/12/07/jennifer-lawrence-roasted-for-saying-she-was-1st-woman-action-lead/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shared</a>.
While another wrote, &#8220;Oh Jennifer, I love you like crazy, but did you never see any movies at all before you were hired for &#8216;Hunger Games&#8217;? I know there are some actors who never go to movies (Bob Hoskins was one, he never watched movies) but I would have thought you would have heard of, say, &#8216;Kill Bill.’”

Jennifer Lawrence Facing Backlash After Claiming She Was First Lead Female Action Hero; Variety Deletes Tweet

Jennifer Lawrence said that before &#8220;Hunger Games,&#8221; no one &#8220;had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie.&#8221; But there&#8217;s just one problem with that. It&#8217;s not true.
During <a href="https://variety.com/2022/film/features/jennifer-lawrence-viola-davis-action-heroes-motherhood-1235451405/">Variety&#8217;s</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05EhMqgUpME">Actors on Actors</a> interview, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jennifer-lawrence">32-year-old actress</a> claimed she was the first woman ever to be cast in the lead role of an action film when she landed the part of Katniss Everdeen in the 2012 hit dystopian movie.

For as far back as the 1980s, many women have landed action hero lead roles, such as sci-fi action heroes like Linda Hamilton in the monster 1984 hit &#8220;The Terminator,&#8221; and Sigourney Weaver in &#8220;Aliens&#8221; in 1986.
There were also female action stars like Bridget Fonda in 1993&#8217;s &#8220;Point of No Return,&#8221; and Geena Davis in &#8220;The Long Kiss Goodnight&#8221; in 1996. Not to mention actresses such as Angelina Jolie in 2001&#8217;s &#8220;Lara Croft: Tomb Raider,&#8221; Uma Thurman in &#8220;Kill Bill: Volume 1&#8221; in 2003, and Milla Jovovich in &#8220;Resident Evil&#8221; that same year.
At one point in the interview, Lawrence also discussed how her career has changed since becoming a mother while making her new movie &#8220;Causeway.&#8221;
&#8220;I made the movie right before I got married,&#8221; the actress shared. &#8220;And then we had the pandemic. Two years later, I&#8217;m pregnant, we go back, and we make the rest of it. It was the scariest thing in the entire world to think about making a family. What if I f*** up? What if I can&#8217;t do it? And I was so scared that I would f*** it up. And it was so interesting to make a movie where I&#8217;m feeling so scared and feeling this mirrored in Lynsey.&#8221;
&#8220;Every day of being a mom, I feel awful. I feel guilty,&#8221; she added. &#8220;I&#8217;m playing with him and I&#8217;m like, &#8216;Is this what he wants to be doing? Should we be outside? We&#8217;re outside. What if he&#8217;s cold? What if he&#8217;s going to get sick? Should we be inside? Is this enough? Is this developing your brain enough?&#8221;

Jennifer Lawrence Claims 'Nobody Had Ever Put A Woman In The Lead Of An Action Movie' Before 'Hunger Games' - There's Just One Problem With That

Motherhood

Women

Remember Jennifer Lawrence?
No, not the 32-year-old star of AppleTV+’s “Causeway,” another Oscar-bait film released during awards season.
We know all about her.
We mean the young star of “Winter’s Bone,” the indie drama that made her a star at the ripe old age of 20. She dazzled, again, in 2012’s “Silver Linings Playbook,” netting a Best Actress Oscar for her performance.
And, famously<a href="https://people.com/movies/jennifer-lawrence-confronted-anderson-cooper-after-he-claimed-she-faked-her-viral-oscars-fall/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">, she took a spill</a> while en route to the Oscars podium in 2013 to collect her trophy.
The Kentucky native’s interviews gave audiences the impression she was just a heartland gal whose beauty and talent forged her ticket to Hollywood. She earned another Oscar nomination a year later for “American Hustle,” and her star status came with a certificate of authenticity.
Would fame and fortune change Lawrence, dubbed in select press circles <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/jennifer-lawrence-netflix-america-s-sweetheart-upcoming-films-career-hunger-games-a9547846.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“America’s Sweetheart”</a> for her aw-shucks appeal (she once played on her school’s all-boy basketball squad)? Or might the industry’s hard-Left status make her into yet another progressive star weighing in on the latest Beltway shenanigans?
The actress who once said she didn’t “<a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2021/11/jennifer-lawrence-on-love-fame-boundaries-and-dont-look-up" target="_blank" rel="noopener">want to be a douchebag</a>” took a nastier turn once a certain real estate mogul took an infamous escalator ride in 2015.
Lawrence reacted to Donald Trump’s presidential run as aggressively as any of her peers. She vowed <a href="https://time.com/5053969/jennifer-lawrence-trump-oprah/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to throw a martini</a> in the mogul’s face if their paths ever crossed.
This “Sweetheart” sounded just like her peers. Slowly, Lawrence <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/politics-are-killing-people-jennifer-lawrence-said-shes-feuding-with-conservative-family-over-abortion-gun-control" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leaned into her progressive beliefs</a> but took matters one step further.
She started throwing people under the bus. And it started, naturally, with the GOP.
In 2021 <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/jennifer-lawrence-radical-wing-republicans-voting-restrictions-psa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lawrence aligned with the group RepresentUs</a> to push the so-called For the People Act targeting voting rules.
<blockquote>Whatever your personal politics are, whatever side of the aisle you find yourself on, you need to know that your vote matters and the outcome of our elections are not maneuvered and manipulated. In Texas, Georgia and Florida and 44 other states, there’s a radical wing of the Republican Party that is actively dismantling America’s right to vote because they don’t have the numbers to win otherwise.</blockquote>
In her 2022 Vogue interview she attacked Republican voters, again, but this time they had company — <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/jennifer-lawrence-october-cover-2022-interview" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the actress’ parents</a>.
<blockquote>I just worked so hard in the last five years to forgive my dad and my family and try to understand: It’s different. The information they are getting is different. Their life is different… I’ve tried to get over it and I really can’t. I can’t. I’m sorry I’m just unleashing, but I can’t f*** with people who aren’t political anymore. You live in the United States of America. You have to be political. It’s too dire. Politics are killing people.</blockquote>
She doubled down on her parents in a separate interview, courtesy of Vanity Fair. She uses MSNBC-style verbiage to attack family members for <a href="https://archive.vanityfair.com/article/2021/12/01/a-happy-new-year?utm_brand=vf&amp;utm_social-type=owned&amp;mbid=social_twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">being part of MAGA nation</a>.
<blockquote>It’s wild to disagree on things you thought you would never…there’s no way we’re going to disagree on this in 2021. White supremacy. Attacking the Capitol. Nazis being the bad guys. Or just, science. I don’t know.</blockquote>
To be clear, the Oscar winner just suggested her parents support the January 6 riot, Nazism and white supremacy. Those labels are commonplace in far-Left circles, but they’re usually applied to generic, faceless Republicans by rhetorical bomb throwers on MSNBC.
Lawrence puts a very familiar face on those accusations. Her parents’ faces.
Now, those tribal battles are happening across America, sadly. Most people don’t have access to glossy magazine features to spill their personal dirt, though. And, if they did, they’d likely keep such skirmishes to themselves.
Not Lawrence, apparently. She’s not done with trashing things, though. More recently she’s targeted her own IMDB.com page.
She shares a story about a <a href="https://variety.com/2022/film/news/jennifer-lawrence-adele-warned-passengers-flop-1235420909/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">famous singer cautioning her against making “Passengers,</a>” a sci-fi disappointment from 2016 co-starring Chris Pratt.
<blockquote>Adele told me not to do it! She was like, “I feel like space movies are the new vampire movies.” I should have listened to her.</blockquote>
It’s worth noting actors are reticent to trash their own films, with rare exceptions like George Clooney repeatedly mocking his own contributions to 1997’s flop “Batman &amp; Robin.” It can burn bridges with collaborators, for starters. It’s also insulting to the cast and crew, all of whom assembled in a good faith effort to make a fine movie. (It just doesn’t always turn out that way).
Here’s betting Pratt is less than eager to reteam with Lawrence moving forward.
The actress recently <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/jennifer-lawrence-passengers-regrets-parted-with-caa-1235254027/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">piled on her former talent agency</a>, CAA, charging it didn’t send personal-sized projects her way.
<blockquote>I found out that a lot of filmmakers that I really loved and admired had scripts that weren’t even reaching me.</blockquote>
Now, she vows to eschew big-budget productions in order to shoot the films she wants to appear in. Smaller. More passion-based. Of course, should her box office fortunes wane she might beg to star in an MCU movie or “Hunger Games” spinoff.
Will she throw herself under the bus in that case?
Lawrence went from a talented, fresh-faced starlet to a star regretful of her fame and eager to publicly trash her own family during puff-piece magazine profiles.
Imagine how she’ll spend the rest of her 30s.

‘You Have To Be Political’: Why Jennifer Lawrence Is Throwing Everyone Under The Bus

Readers Pass

Celebrities have been political for decades.
Remember when Marlon Brando sent Native American Sacheen Littlefeather to decline his Oscar for “The Godfather?” How about when Michael Moore used his Best Documentary Oscar speech to blast President George W. Bush in 2003?
That was just a taste of the New Normal. Today’s stars are hyper-political, almost always in unison with the progressive playbook. They vent on social media, in magazine profiles, and, of course, from awards show stages.
A few stars go beyond those virtue signals. They seemingly live and breathe political banter, using every opportunity to rage against the GOP. And you can blame some, if not most, of it on a certain real estate mogul.
<h3>Rob Reiner </h3>
The man affectionately known as Meathead from “All in the Family” became one of Hollywood’s best directors after leaving the CBS sitcom.
“This Is Spinal Tap.” “Stand By Me.” “The Princess Bride.” “Misery.” “A Few Good Men.” “When Harry Met Sally.”
Few modern directors can match that resume.
These days, he directs flops (“Shock and Awe;” “And So It Goes”) in between having raging fits against former President Donald Trump on every platform possible. His most embarrassing moment? He used the death of his father, comedy icon Carl Reiner, <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/rob-reiner-father-hoped-live-205216941.html">to target Trump</a>.
His August appearance on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” found him <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2022/08/29/maher_media_buried_the_hunter_biden_story_because_they_couldnt_risk_having_trump_win_the_election.html">unable to answer a direct question</a> from the affable host about the media burying the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. He couldn’t abandon his progressive talking points and looked foolish in the process.
His next project could, in theory, put an end to his cinematic cold streak. He’s directing a sequel to the classic mockumentary “This Is Spinal Tap.” Will his Trump derangement enter the frame? Would anyone bet against it?
<h3>Chelsea Handler</h3>
The former E! superstar left the channel to join Netflix’s team, but she eventually decided to become a full-time activist. Why? Politics gnawed at her, and she figured she’d be more effective as an activist than a talk show host.
Or, perhaps, her Netflix series drew terrible ratings, and she left before she got canned.
Either way, she’s transformed her shtick from bawdy blasts from her boudoir to lectures about so-called <a href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/chelsea-handler-donald-trump-white-privilege_n_5d8301e8e4b0957256b11476">white privilege</a>. She even said white males are the <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/chelsea-handler-white-men-woke-comedy/">only “approved” target</a> for comedians today.
She did much more than overhaul her act, though. She sauntered in several women’s marches, ignored politicians accused of sexual misconduct if they had a “D” in front of their names, and demanded racially-charged jokes become illegal in the U.S. &#8211; while ignoring <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/chelsea-handler-ripped-hypocrite-condemning-jokes-racism-153019877.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall">her own “criminal” past</a> on the matter.
In between political broadsides, Handler discusses the progress <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/chelsea-handler-47-says-therapy-gave-her-the-self-awareness-she-needed-to-fall-in-love-with-jo-koy-145856232.html">she’s made in therapy</a> following the Trump era.
<h3>Ron Perlman</h3>
The character actor landed the role of a lifetime as Clay, the head of the “Sons of Anarchy” motorcycle club. That FX series showcased Perlman’s range and ability to project anger on screen.
Over and again.
We’ve gotten a taste of that off-screen, too, ever since Trump took office. Perlman became obsessed with the 45th president, turning his Twitter feed into a round-the-clock, anti-Trump showcase.
His most embarrassing Tweet? He said he’d <a href="https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/ron-perlman-trump-twitter-resistance/">risk death to dethrone Trump.</a>
Perlman never stops working – his IMDB page is chock-full of soon-to-be released titles. His political fires still burn, however, despite a new president inhabiting the White House. Trump Derangement is a permanent part of his psyche, alas, and chances are his TV is permanently set to MSNBC.
<h3>Alyssa Milano</h3>
The 40-something actress landed not one but two beloved shows – “Who’s the Boss” and “Charmed.” These days, she’s more activist than actor. Her podcast, “Sorry, Not Sorry,” lets her weigh in on the latest political headlines, and she’s equally vocal with social media, particularly her 3.6 million strong Twitter account.
Her cause celebre? Women’s rights … except when they overlap with her progressive pals. She became one of Hollywood’s #MeToo warriors, but she initially laid low when former Biden staffer Tara Reade accused the now-president of sexually molesting her in 1993.
Milano finally commented on the ugly charge, saying her “Believe All Women” mantra came with an asterisk.
She similarly softened her hard-charging approach when 11 women charged New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexually inappropriate behavior as well as when the group Time’s Up, which was established to protect women, couldn’t rally on their behalf.
Fellow “Charmed” alum <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/rose-mcgowan-slams-alyssa-milano-joe-biden-times-up-ceo-cuomo-sex-scandal">Rose McGowan called Milano’s blazing hypocrisy</a> out on the matter, &#8220;Milano, TimesUp, fake performatives and profiteers. Alyssa&#8217;s statement at the time was gaslighting in full effect. She said of my truth telling ‘Hurt people hurt people.’ No, Alyssa, it&#8217;s lizard people like you, SDK Knickerbocker, Gov Cuomo, the Pres, Tina Chen who hurt people. Your time is up. Exit stage left.”
<h3>Jennifer Lawrence</h3>
What’s a sure sign you’ve let politics get the best of you? You throw your immediate family under the bus in a fawning magazine profile.
That’s exactly what this “Hunger Games” star did when talking up her next movie at Vogue Magazine. Lawrence said she tried and tried to forgive her right-leaning family for not aligning with her progressive views.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ben-shapiro-reads-vogues-jennifer-lawrence-interview-and-it-makes-him-jealous-of-tucker-carlson">She just couldn’t do it.</a>
Even more alarming? She admitted to having nightmares about Tucker Carlson, the Fox News superstar.
<h3>Amy Schumer</h3>
Schumer took a page out of Handler’s woke playbook in transforming her once-blazing career. Now, her movies do little damage at the box office, and she’s relegated to small screen gigs like “Life &amp; Beth,” which barely moved the pop culture needle.
Why? She used her “Inside Amy Schumer” showcase to promote <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/amy-schumer-drops-new-anti-gun-sketch-chase-stephens">progressive causes like gun control</a>, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/amy-schumer-protesting-nfl-says-she-wont-do-any-emily-zanotti">got herself arrested</a> for protesting Supreme Court justices under the flimsiest of sex abuse allegations, and then boycotted the NFL for not employing failed quarterback Colin Kaepernick. She essentially cut her potential audience in half with her hard-left politics, and she’s no longer the industry’s go-to comedienne.
Her tepid co-hosting gig at the recent Oscars ceremony showed anew her best comic days are behind her. That won’t stop her activism, though.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/author/ben-shapiro" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Shapiro</a> tipped his cap to fellow conservative <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/tucker-carlson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tucker Carlson</a> Wednesday after learning the Fox News host has landed a starring role … in the nightmares of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/politics-are-killing-people-jennifer-lawrence-said-shes-feuding-with-conservative-family-over-abortion-gun-control" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hollywood Leftist Jennifer Lawrence</a>.
The Kentucky-born actress told <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/politics-are-killing-people-jennifer-lawrence-said-shes-feuding-with-conservative-family-over-abortion-gun-control">Vogue</a> in a months-old interview published this week about how she fights over politics with her flyover family, railed about the overturning of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/roe-v-wade" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Roe v. Wade</a>, and divulged that her political awakening came courtesy of a sitcom. The unburdening came as Lawrence and interviewer Abby Aguirre got spa treatments, and included the revelation that Lawrence told her therapist she had nightmares about Carlson.
“I&#8217;m a little jealous,” Shapiro quipped on his daily podcast of “The Ben Shapiro Show,” as he skimmed through the article in the members-only hour of his show.  “I&#8217;ll be honest with you, when Jennifer Lawrence is having nightmares about you, that&#8217;s kind of amazing. Like, good for Tucker. Seriously living, literally living rent free in Jennifer Lawrence&#8217;s head. That&#8217;s amazing stuff.”
After Lawrence and Aguirre got a treatment called “Korean body scrubs,” the subject turned to the baby she had in February with her husband, described in the interview as “the art gallerist Cooke Maroney.” Lawrence had brought her breast pump to the spa in what Aguirre celebrated as a selfless act of motherhood.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="The Green Suicide Pact | Ep. 1569" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7VKZ99JlKng?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
“I love all these pieces because they really are the most obnoxious people talking about the most obnoxious people, about the most obnoxious topics,” Shapiro said. “It&#8217;s incredible. It&#8217;s like an infinite, regress of obnoxiousness.”
After the spa treatment, the two repaired to an outdoor dining area to enjoy some white wine, which some breast-feeding mothers avoid. Lawrence warned her interviewer she was “in a mood.”
“Well, not a bad mood exactly, but a consistently emotional one brought on by the Supreme Court decision overturning Roe versus Wade a few days earlier,” Aguirre wrote. “Much of her disappointment was directed at certain relatives back in Louisville, Kentucky, where she&#8217;d grown up, including her father.”
Lawrence, complaining about her family’s differing world view, claimed that all people “have to be political. It’s too dire. “Politics are killing people.”
“Okay, so I&#8217;d like everybody to remember this,” Shapiro said. “Next time Jennifer Lawrence asks you to go to one of her movies. She hates your guts, okay? If you are on the other side of the political aisle, everything is political, every single thing. You can&#8217;t go to a movie to just enjoy a movie. It&#8217;s too dire, guys. You are too dire.”
Lawrence told Aguirre she had thought of herself as a Republican while growing up, but it all changed when she was 16 and saw an episode of the NBC show “30 Rock” and heard Tina Fey’s Liz Lemon character say something like, “I&#8217;m not a crazy liberal. I just think people should drive hybrid cars.”
That, Lawrence told Aguirre, is when she came of age politically and rejected her conservative family’s values.
“That is the way that I decide my politics,” Shapiro said, channeling Lawrence. “I watch written characters by Tina Fey on a sitcom. These are deep thoughts here from Jennifer Lawrence, who has nightmares about Tucker Carlson. She literally says that Liz Lemon on 30 Rock defined her politics.”

Tucker Carlson

Critics roundly mocked superstar actress <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/jennifer-lawrence-says-shes-quitting-acting-order-emily-zanotti/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jennifer Lawrence</a> after she admitted to having nightmares about popular Fox News host Tucker Carlson on a regular basis.
Lawrence said that she had been &#8220;trying to heal&#8221; after feuding with her own family over politics, and said that recurring nightmares about Tucker Carlson had even been a topic of discussion between the actress and her therapist. Her comments appeared in her recent Vogue <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/jennifer-lawrence-october-cover-2022-interview" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cover story</a> — wherein she also divulged for the first time the name and sex of the baby she delivered last February: a baby boy named Cy.
Critics quickly took to Twitter to mock the Academy Award winner over her comments.
&#8220;This is hilarious and sad at the same time. Jennifer Lawrence admits that she has NIGHTMARES about Tucker Carlson. These people are absolute lunatics,&#8221; Robby Starbuck said in a tweet sharing a screenshot of the article.

Wade pursuant to a 6-3 decision in the more recent case, Dobbs v. Jackson Women&#8217;s Health Organization.
&#8220;I just worked so hard in the last five years to forgive my dad and my family and try to understand: It’s different. The information they are getting is different. Their life is different,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I’ve tried to get over it and I really can’t. I can’t. I’m sorry I’m just unleashing, but I can’t f*** with people who aren’t political anymore.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jennifer-lawrence">Jennifer Lawrence</a> said she’s at war with her conservative relatives over politics. 
The 32-year-old Kentucky native commented on her family feud during a cover interview for <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/jennifer-lawrence-october-cover-2022-interview">Vogue</a>. Lawrence discussed having nightmares about Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson and recalling how the 2016 election caused a major rift between her and some relatives.
“I just worked so hard in the last five years to forgive my dad and my family and try to understand: It’s different. The information they are getting is different. Their life is different,” she said.  
“I’ve tried to get over it and I really can’t. I can’t. I’m sorry I’m just unleashing, but I can’t f*** with people who aren’t political anymore. You live in the United States of America. You have to be political. It’s too dire. Politics are killing people.”
Lawrence is an avid supporter of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/abortion">abortion</a> and is <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/gun-control">pro-gun control</a> as well. 
The “Silver Linings Playbook” star went on to profess her opinion that former President Donald Trump only got elected because he was a man. “It breaks my heart because America had the choice between a woman and a dangerous, dangerous jar of mayonnaise,” Lawrence said. “And they were like, Well, we can’t have a woman. Let’s go with the jar of mayonnaise.”
The Academy Award winner revealed more opinions about her family. “I don’t want to disparage my family, but I know that a lot of people are in a similar position with their families. How could you raise a daughter from birth and believe that she doesn’t deserve equality? How?”
Lawrence spends much of the interview describing how her newborn son, Cy, has changed her life for the better in immeasurable ways. But at the same time, she believes women should have access to abortion. The actress said she planned to have an abortion in her early 20s but then miscarried instead. 
Now, she doesn’t believe women should be “forced” to stay pregnant.
“I remember a million times thinking about it while I was pregnant,” Lawrence said. “Thinking about the things that were happening to my body. And I had a great pregnancy. I had a very fortunate pregnancy. But every single second of my life was different. And it would occur to me sometimes: What if I was forced to do this?”
Next, Lawrence shared her thoughts on gun control.
“I’m raising a little boy who is going to go to school one day. Guns are the number-one cause of death for children in the United States. And people are still voting for politicians who receive money from the NRA. It blows my mind,” Lawrence told Vogue.
“I mean if Sandy Hook didn’t change anything? We as a nation just went, Okay! We are allowing our children to lay down their lives for our right to a second amendment that was written over 200 years ago.”

Ellen DeGeneres appeared to let slip the sex of Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney&#8217;s first child together, a baby who is now three months old, during &#8220;The Ellen Show&#8221; when it aired on Monday.
During the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ellen-degeneres-to-end-talk-show-blasts-culture-where-people-cant-learn-and-grow-from-mistakes">64-year-old&#8217;s</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imKTiANJs7U&amp;t=110s">talk show</a>, DeGeneres made a phone call to &#8220;The Hunger Games&#8221; star at her home — the superstar actress made headlines when she reportedly gave birth back in February. While on the phone, the two discussed the fact that Ellen is Lawrence&#8217;s neighbor — and the host said she can sometimes hear Lawrence talking to &#8220;him.&#8221;
&#8220;People don&#8217;t know this, but I used to live in the house that you live in now when I started the show 20 years ago,&#8221; the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ellen-degeneres-reportedly-paying-staff-2-million-in-bonuses-before-shows-finale">talk show host</a> shared.

&#8220;Now I live next door to you, and I&#8217;m looking at you living in my house with a brand-new baby,&#8221; she added. &#8220;By the way, I do hear you sometimes talking to him.&#8221;
DeGeneres called Lawrence&#8217;s conversations with her baby &#8220;really cute.&#8221;
&#8220;I can hear you go, &#8216;I know!'&#8221; the host explained. &#8220;It&#8217;s so sweet.&#8221;
The 31-year-old actress has yet to speak publicly about her pregnancy or motherhood, other than a brief comment she made to <a href="https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2021/11/jennifer-lawrence-on-love-fame-boundaries-and-dont-look-up">Vanity Fair</a> in November 2021 when she made it clear that when it comes to her kid, it&#8217;s going to be a private matter.
&#8220;If I was at a dinner party, and somebody was like, &#8216;Oh, my God, you&#8217;re expecting a baby,&#8217; I wouldn&#8217;t be like, &#8216;God, I can&#8217;t talk about that. Get away from me, you psycho!'&#8221; the &#8220;Red Sparrow&#8221; star said at the time. &#8220;But every instinct in my body wants to protect their privacy for the rest of their lives, as much as I can.&#8221;
In 2018, reports first surfaced that Lawrence and Maroney were dating and a year later the two got engaged. Eight months later the couple tied the knot at a ceremony in Rhode Island.
The host of &#8220;The Ellen Show&#8221; noted during her discussion with Lawrence that her daytime show is winding down and will officially come to an end this week. The final episode is set to air Thursday May 26. It will mark the <a href="https://tvline.com/2022/04/29/ellen-degeneres-show-last-episode-date-finale/">conclusion of nearly two decades</a> of the popular daytime show lead by the comedian and actress.

Jennifer Lawrence is speaking frankly about her annoyances with co-stars. The 31-year-old Academy Award winner most recently worked on the satirical film “Don’t Look Up” alongside fellow A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio. But she certainly didn&#8217;t love every minute of working together. 
The actress went on Stephen Colbert’s talk show to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bw8tIrMawY4&amp;t=74s">discuss</a> her thoughts on filming the movie, and apparently they were not favorable.
“It was the most annoying day in my life,” the “Silver Linings Playbook” star revealed to Colbert. “They drove me crazy that day.”
When describing filming a scene in the car with DiCaprio and Timothée Chalamet, Lawrence said: “I don’t know what it was… Timothée was just excited to be out of the house [after the pandemic lockdown]. I think it was, like, his first scene&#8230;. And Leo had picked the song that was playing in the car and was just, like, ‘You know, this song was about, you know, blah, blah, blah.’”
She continued, saying, “I just remember being in absolute misery that day&#8230;.It was hell.”
Lawrence admitted that overall she thought working with her costars was “cool” except for that one very frustrating day. 
Lawrence is making her return to the big screen after taking some time off to spend with her family. “I think the things I learned are so deep and profound … that I don’t want to tell you,” she told Colbert of her extended break from work. “I mean, it was really nice.”
Besides getting frustrated with her co-stars, Lawrence was pleased with the overall vibe on set. “I’ve always found comfort in a schedule and doing something and being somewhere, and just kind of the comfort of being on set where the world is one thing and very organized,” she said during the interview. 
“I think coming out of the ‘Hunger Games’ and all of that, it was nice. I took a break and nobody really cared and it was quiet,” she continued. “I got to feel like I could become a part of the world again without fanfare. Literal fanfare.”
The movie “Don’t Look Up” is a thinly veiled satire about climate change. In it, two low-level astronomers discover that a comet is poised to destroy the earth, but they can’t get anyone to care about the impending disaster. Even the president worries about petty problems instead of dealing with the larger issue.
The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/even-film-critics-are-hating-on-leonardo-dicaprios-new-climate-change-movie-smug-shrill-obvious-satire">reported</a> that critics were not kind in reviewing the dark comedy, which comes from director Adam McKay of “Vice” and “The Big Short” fame. 
Film critic Chris Evangelista of SlashFilm <a href="https://www.slashfilm.com/679771/dont-look-up-review-this-smug-shrill-disaster-movie-satire-is-just-a-disaster/">said</a>: “… [H]ere the filmmaker has stumbled too far from the path, and he can no longer see the forest for the trees. He’s created a smug, shrill, obvious satire that has nothing to say other than ‘Humanity is screwed.’”
He continued, saying, “Don’t Look Up” is “an excuse for smug, self-righteous liberals to bask in how smart they are while everyone else is a dunce. This isn’t a movie with a message; it’s an excuse to point and laugh at the oblivious.”
“Don’t Look Up” premiered in theaters on December 10 and will be released on Netflix December 24.

Actress Jennifer Lawrence once again used her celebrity status to bash Republicans.
In a PSA advocating the much-touted voting rights bill, the &#8220;For the People Act,&#8221; Lawrence scolded Republicans for passing voter integrity laws in states like Texas and Georgia.
&#8220;Whatever your personal politics are, whatever side of the aisle you find yourself on, you need to know that your vote matters and the outcome of our elections are not maneuvered and manipulated,&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnB34NSY4W0&amp;t=3s" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">she says in the PSA</a>. &#8220;In Texas, Georgia and Florida, and 44 other states, there’s a radical wing of the Republican Party that is actively dismantling America’s right to vote because they don’t have the numbers to win otherwise.&#8221;
&#8220;Without Gerrymandering or shutting down hundreds of voting facilities within reach of minorities, and specifically targeting and carving out people of color, they can’t win. But this is cheating and it is not democracy,&#8221; she adds.
Lawrence then touted the &#8220;For the People Act&#8221; as a law that will protect Democracy and stop billionaires from stealing elections.
&#8220;There’s a law in the Senate right now called the For the People Act and it can reverse these anti-voting laws and it can stop billionaires from being able to buy our elections,&#8221; she says. &#8221; It even says that all voting machines need to be made here in the U.S. But it’s going to take a lot of pressure from us to get it to pass.&#8221;
&#8220;Let the politicians bicker and throw tantrums, let’s just make sure they remember who they work for,&#8221; she concludes.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Jennifer Lawrence: Democracy is at a critical moment in America" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QnB34NSY4W0?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) has already said he will not support the law, believing it is too broad and that it is not the right legislation to unite the country at this moment in time. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) has also said <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/arizona-dems-pressure-kyrsten-sinema-to-help-kill-the-filibuster">she will not</a> help kill the filibuster. Jennifer Lawrence made no mention of either Democrat.
Lawrence was a frequent critic of President Donald Trump throughout his tenure, both before and after the election. In 2018, she even said that she might take a break from acting in order to save America.
“I’m going to be working with this organization as a part of [anti-corruption organization] Represent.US… trying to get young people engaged politically on a local level,” the actress told <a href="https://t.co/Q72Nj79Eiy">Entertainment Tonigh</a>t. “It doesn’t have anything to do with partisan stuff. It’s just anti-corruption and stuff trying to pass state by state laws that can help prevent corruption, fix our democracy.”
“My political passion has almost turned into an obsession. I mean, I don’t think you ever do feel settled, (but) as soon as you feel settled with your home and your personal life, you’re looking at the world and going, ‘How in the hell do I fix this? What do we do?’” she added.
After revealing that she previously voted for John McCain and once considered herself a Republican for fiscal reasons, actress Jennifer Lawrence has now clarified to her many dismayed followers that she is a “proud Democrat” and believes she was living by misguided principles. Speaking on the  <a class="gnt_ar_b_a" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jennifer-lawrence-shes-got-an-oscar-ive-got-sciatica/id1469643813?i=1000495502329" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-t-l="|inline|intext|n/a">“Absolutely Not” podcast </a>in October of last year, the “Hunger Games” star said she changed her original Republican “politics based on the things I learned.”
“My first time voting, I voted for John McCain. I was a little Republican,” Lawrence said.
Lawrence appreciated “the fiscal benefits of the Republican policies” at the time she first voted while recognizing that the “social issues weren’t in line with my views.”
“When Donald Trump got elected, that just changed everything,” she said. “This is an impeached president who’s broken many laws and has refused to condemn white supremacy, and it feels like there has been a line drawn in the sand. I don’t want to support a president who supports white supremacists.”
