Happy birthday! (and may the odds be ever in your favor)

August 15, 2014

Having turned 24 a few weeks ago, it’s my turn to welcome one of my favorite actresses to the “You’re-almost-a-quarter-of-a century-old-what-the-fuck-have-you-done-with-your-life?” club.

Yep, Academy Award-winner Jennifer Lawrence has lived as many (or as few) years as there are hours in the day. It’s kind of overwhelming how much she’s accomplished by 24, don’t you think? But I should leave that topic for another day (or to discuss with my therapist while I weep about my Oscar-less life).

I’ve said before that I’m growing a bit tired of J-Law’s off-screen antics and (literal) pitfalls, but that doesn’t mean I don’t still love her amazing work on film. I recently included her in my Top 10 actresses I’d watch in pretty much anything and ever since I discovered her in Guillermo Arriaga’s The Burning Plain, she’s been giving brilliant performance after brilliant performance.

So, join me in wishing Jen a happy birthday and please do share your favorite J-Law performance in the comments!

That’s kind of bonkers that Lawrence has only turned 24. And happy belated birthday to you too!

I love her as Rosalyn Rosenfeld in American Hustle. I am almost 10 years older than her. What am I doing with MY life?

Haha, yeah, I’ve found her to be a little annoying offscreen as well, but she is great ON screen! Happy birthday to you!

Can’t wait for Mockingjay – Part 1. Very good chance that will be THE #1 box office hit of the year. 🙂

Can’t wait, either! Hope they do a good job with it, because the book is so boring!
