In 2016, Jennifer Lawrence continued to hold the top spot on the list of highest-paid actresses with a huge amount of money: 46 million US dollars. Not any other prestigious or veteran name, but this 9X beauty is the one who continuously reaps success in both the number of film awards and the revenue of the films she participates in. Why do producers favor her so much? Perhaps it is thanks to Jen’s tireless efforts to express herself over the years.

As a child, Jennifer was a healthy and personable girl. She was even “banned” by her teachers from playing with other girls because she was too… rough. She is on the cheerleading team, plays field hockey and softball. Not only that, Jennifer also studied “extremely” when she graduated from high school in just 2 years with an almost perfect GPA: 3.9/4.0.

Jen always thought she would become a doctor when she grew up. She used to model and perform in community theater but never dreamed of becoming an actress. The turning point happened on spring break at age 14, when she and her family traveled to New York. A talent scout asked for a photo of her and Jennifer’s mother’s phone number. The next day, they called back and asked if Jennifer could come to a rehearsal. This was also the time when Jen realized her potential and passion for acting, so she decided to pursue it seriously.

When her family moved to Los Angeles, this was also where Jen had her first roles in her career with small series such as Monk, Medium, Cold Case… before getting the main role in the TBS series The Bill Engvall Show. . At the same time, she also tried her hand in independent films such as The Poker House and The Burning Plain.

In 2012, Jennifer Lawrence once again attracted attention for her leading role as Katniss Everdeen in the film The Hunger Games, adapted from the novel by Suzanne Collins. This is a big project that Jennifer had to consider a lot before accepting, because she was afraid it would affect her career. This role took Jennifer a lot of practice and physical preparation, including having to skin a squirrel with her bare hands.
