Jennifer Lawrence: The 2013 TIME 100 Issue

Every year, TIME Magazine presents its annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world, from artists and leaders to pioneers, titans and icons. Jennifer Lawrence was chosen for one of seven special cover editions. Academy Award winning actress Jodie Foster wrote about Jennifer Lawrence for the 2013 Time 100 Issue.

From TIME:

 You’ll remember where you were when you first felt it, how you were stuck to one spot like a small animal considering its end. The Jennifer Lawrence Stare. It cuts a searing swath in your gut. A reckoning. I remember going to the cutting rooms of Winter’s Bone. I thought, Sure, this girl can act. But, man, this girl can also just be. All of those painful secrets in her face, the feeling that there’s some terrible past that’s left impossibly angled bone and weariness in its wake. She’s worn from the pain of living — something none of her characters would ever have the energy to articulate. It’s just part of her, like skin and muscle. The good news is that Jen, her good-humored, ballsy, free-spirited alter ego with the husky voice and a propensity for junk food … Jen, the spritely tomboy from Kentucky — that Jen’s got it together. A hoot. A gem. A gem with a killer stare.

from MTV Hollywood Crush:

"No hazing, fortunately," he said, laughing. Instead, he described "Catching Fire" as a great place to be, adding, "But to be a part of that, it was pretty cool. Jennifer's star just continued to rise, even through production...it was just cool to be there."

 And not only was Alan not put through the wringer by his co-stars, he said that everyone, particularly the fantabulous Stanley Tucci (with whom he did his pre-Games interview scene), was "super-generous and giving."

Meanwhile, the actor says that the scenes he's most looking forward to seeing on the big screen are the same one the fans are likely clamoring for: the highly anticipated action sequences from the 75th Hunger Games.

"We shot some cool scenes," he said. "I like the really physical kind of action stuff. I spent months training for this stuff, fight training, and becoming a dagger specialist. All those things in the arena are going to be a lot of fun."

Alan also talked to E! about watching Sam Claflin break his hand during production of Catching Fire:

"Sam got hurt the worst," Alan Ritchson, who plays Gloss in Catching Fire, told me at the MTV Movie Awards. "He broke his hand doing a stunt."

Don't look for footage of the mishap in a DVD extra, though. 

"It was in rehearsal, so we weren't even shooting," Ritchson said. "He broke it on the stunt guy, warming up. I was standing right next to him. It was tough to watch."

But, Ritchson said, Claflin "took it like a champ—he took it and kept moving."

Jennifer Lawrence Wins 2 MTV Movie Awards

With all the Catching Fire Trailer excitement, we almost forgot to mention that Jennifer Lawrence picked up TWO MTV Movie Awards last night!

Jen snagged the golden popcorn for Best Female Performance and Best Kiss with Bradley Cooper, both for her work as Tiffany Maxwell in Silver Linings Playbook.

Bradley picked up the Best Kiss Awards for Jen saying, "Sorry Jennifer isn't here....she WAS great to kiss!"

While it's slightly (!) less prestigious than an Oscar, congrats Jen!
