77°Good evening

Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence says she is still stung by criticism early in her career that she was too overweight for Hollywood. "Somebody told me I was fat, that I was going to get fired if I didn't lose a certain amount of weight," she says in the November issue of the UK edition of Harper's Bazaar. "They brought in pictures of me where I was basically naked, and told me to use them as motivation for my diet." Lawrence, 23, said she was surprised people would believe that "somehow, after I won an Oscar, I'm above it all. 'You really still care about that?' Yeah. I was a little girl. I was hurt. It doesn't matter what accolades you get."
