Jennifer Lawrence said that her early success and the entertainment industry’s enthusiastic response to it seriously affected her, during a conversation at the London Film Festival (via Variety).
Lawrence stated that she lost sight of the artistry of acting after seeing the value of her own brand soar so quickly. Lawrence stated “I think I lost a sense of control,”
Adding, “Between The Hunger Games coming out and winning the Oscar, I became such a commodity. When I reflect now, [there was] just a loss of control.”
Lawrence acknowledged that even now she is still processing receiving an Academy Award at age 22. I keep thinking ‘when will it hit me?’ I don’t think it ever will, she said.
