Recalling a time she went with a friend to buy a French Bulldog, Jennifer said that one day she had gone with girlfriend who wanted to buy a French bulldog and the seller got along well with us and even had friends in common, "But I didn't realise [the seller] was taking pictures of me with his phone which he later sold online."
"I don't want to have to question every person that comes into my life but at the same time I have reason to. I don't want to change but people need to stop being such a**holes."
"The hard part of the job that comes with the territory is losing a lot of privacy and a lot of control over things that just out of human decency you should have control over."
Lawrence has managed to hold her head up high through the whole cyber hacking crime and she admits that not growing up in Hollywood and having a sense of humour has helped her survive it all.
She continued: "I have perspective because I didn't grow up in this business. I'm not from Hollywood. I'm from Kentucky. Humour has helped me to survive all this.
"My dad taught me always to laugh at myself. I guess I can have an intellectual conversation for five minutes, but then I want to get back to laughing."

Indeed. :)


What you saw is all there is (though that video does appear edited down). There was a lot of goofing around though, and most everything said in the piece was in jest. Nothing that was said was about the phone hack though. Not one word. Not even implied.



I was too, until the Serena premiere, and the ELLE Women speech made me realize she was, and would be, just fine. Always.


Everybody, and I do mean everybody, who gets famous gathers up those that not just dislike them, but full on hate them. This is particularly the case for women, and is gets more pronounced the more famous they get. And Jennifer's just about as famous as you can get, without actually being Tom Cruise. I think you're issue is, that you didn't see any of this directed at Jennifer until after the phone hack business. Believe me though, it was there.

But, and this is a HUGE but, that's YouTube, that's Tumblr, that's the internet. People are *******s on the internet. The anonymity affords them that. If you were to count the number of negative comments and compare them against the positive though, you'd find the positive wins out by a country mile. Every time somebody says something mean about her, there's ten people or more, that rush to berate them for it and defend Jennifer.

When the phone hack happened, I thought; '****! This is going to seriously damage the perception of her.' But it hasn't. I have never seen the press and media be more eager to defend and support a movie star. Usually they don't care, they just want the scandal, and anything that perpetuates it will be made use of. Certainly there were those that criticized her, there were those that took the opportunity to exploit her further, but the majority sided with her.

That's how I know she's loved. For the **** that's hurled at her just for being famous, for all the attempts to defame and impugn her, there are throngs of people who want to fight for her, and celebrate her.

When Jennifer first got on my radar (and I've been a fan since way before she was 'JLaw' if you get me) I was enormously worried about her. I didn't know how, or if this deeply human, funny, bright young woman would be able to stay the same once she got properly sucked into the Hollywood machine. I used to almost chant as I watched her interviews, 'Don't let them change you, don't let them change you.' I needn't have worried though, because no matter how much they keep trying to get her to play the game, to behave like a movie star, Jennifer seems to see the whole board, the streams of code, and she just rearranges it to her purposes. I don't know if that's conscious, or just a fluke of personality, but I've stopped worrying about her. Particularly since the nude pictures theft. If she can whether that, and remain the same funny, kind, amazing woman, then she's able for anything.



There's gonna' be nip-slips, and up-skirts, and 'did she really say...' and 'who's she sleeping with?' and I find all that just as disgusting and dehumanizing as you do. But she shakes it off, she stays who she is, and she keeps laughing, and she keeps being awesome. And the public will continue to love her for all that.

She's gonna' be just fine.



That's just friendly jibes and insults though. That's what friends do. That's how you know they're your friends. I hope he never stops messing with her. I hope she's able to find other people on other movies who'll mess with her, and **** with her the way Josh does. The way Liam does. The way Woody, and Francis do. The way James McAvoy does. The way her brothers do, and her father does (according to her).



Well, I suppose with medicine you're dealing with accident and illness. I suppose you have to confront human indignity and cruelty as well on an almost daily basis. But I don't know, I suppose what we saw with Jen recently felt like the attack of a virtual mob. One which sought to dehumanize and commodify another human being on a mass scale. In a case like that, even one voice that blames the victim, that criticizes her, or calls it her fault can feel like a kick in the stomach.

It shakes our belief in human decency, which we need to have if we're going to exist in society. For me though, there was so much human decency on display in the wake of all that, and from places I wouldn't have expected, that my faith was renewed quite quickly.

There's also the fact that Jennifer and her antics, her movies, and her humanity can be an escape from the random cruelty of everyday life. But that cruelty seeped in, and damaged that escape. It's impossible not to be disheartened by that. But it's important that we move past it as well.


I'm glad if my words are having some effect. I just wish I could say the right thing to make you a little less sensitive, but I suspect time, and Jennifer's continued awesomeness will manage that.

I'm not a journalist, I'm a movie buff I suppose you'd say, and while I have very little time for celebrity culture on a whole, there is an overlap there. I've seen how that side of entertainment 'journalism' works over the years. I remember watching interviews with Ben Affleck the year Daredevil was released, and all anybody was asking him about was his relationship with Jennifer Lopez. This to the point that Ben actually needed to say, in a couple of interviews, 'you know there is actually a movie I'm here to talk about.'

They're not interested in truth, they're interested in story. In gossip. It's oul' one's nattering over the back fence and hanging their washing, just on a grander scale. It's heightened these days by social media, and camera phones but the principle's the same.

The more that you see of this stuff though, the more you're able to read between the lines. And between the lines of Jennifer's ET, EW, TMZ narrative is a public, and yes even a press, that genuinely like her. In fact, those few who don't are more incensed by the fact that others LOVE her SO much, than anything about Jennifer herself. The enmity they feel is largely regarding her ubiquitouseness. Jen knew this herself way back when she first started doing press for The Hunger Games. She remarked many times that her being on all the magazines, and all over peoples TV's was going to make people hate her. "Get off the TV, get out the magazine. Ugh!"

I don't like to see anybody talking **** about her, or being cruel towards her either, but I can't stop it. What you're doing I think, is expecting it at every turn so that it doesn't bite as much on those few occasions that it does happen. All you're doing though, is diminishing your enjoyment of the truly wonderful moments, even tarnishing some with the blight of the darker moments (like that Good Morning Britain interview), despite those moments being vastly outweighed by the good. Vastly!
