Jennifer Lawrence Skinny Scandal: Was Her Picture Photoshopped?
In the past few days, there has been a picture circulating in the internet featuring Jennifer Lawrence in the 2011 cover of Flare magazine. What's it all about? Reports said that the actress was photoshopped in order to look thinner.
The Hunger Games star has spoken about being confident in your own body. In the picture, it appears that her hips, waist and face was digitally enhanced in order for her to look thinner. Her collarbone has been highlighted and her neck drawn-out to give the actress a sexier figure.
In the interview accompanying the cover photo, Lawrence spoke about her body image and revealed that she would prefer to look like a real person more than anything.
"I'd rather look a little chubby on camera and look like a person in real life, than to look great onscreen and look like a scarecrow in real life," the actress said.
She also revealed in an interview with BBC about the pressure for her to lose weight for her long as Katniss in the Hunger Games. "When we were doing the first The Hunger Games, it was a big discussion, 'cause it's called The Hunger Games-she's from District 12, she's obviously underfed, so she would be incredibly thin. But, I just kept saying, 'We have the ability to control this image that young girls are going to be seeing. Girls see enough of this body that we can't imitate, that we'll never be able to obtain, these unrealistic expectations, and this is gonna be their hero, and we have control over that."
It is not yet known whether the actress knows that her photo was photoshopped and there are still no comments from her representative.
