Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence is an Academy Award-winning actress who became the highest-paid actress in the world by age 24. Born in Indian Hills, Kentucky, she showed an early passion for performing and moved to New York City at 14 to pursue acting, dropping out of school to focus on her career.

Lawrence’s breakthrough came with the indie drama “Winter’s Bone” (2010), earning her first Oscar nomination at just 20 years old. She then became a global superstar as Katniss Everdeen in “The Hunger Games” franchise (2012-2015), which grossed nearly $3 billion worldwide. Her collaborations with director David O. Russell produced three acclaimed films: “Silver Linings Playbook” (2012), for which she won the Best Actress Oscar, “American Hustle” (2013), and “Joy” (2015).

Known for her refreshingly candid personality and down-to-earth demeanor despite her fame, Lawrence has been a vocal advocate for gender pay equality in Hollywood. She’s also a prominent face of Dior, having signed a multi-million dollar endorsement deal that remains one of the most lucrative in fashion history. Recent works include “Don’t Look Up” (2021) and “No Hard Feelings” (2023).
