Random Facts You Never Knew About Jennifer Lawrence (17 items)

(#7) She Modeled For Abercrombie & Fitch

Before booking regular acting roles, Lawrence landed a modeling gig with teen clothing retailer Abercrombie & Fitch. But none of her photos were selected to appear in the store or the catalogue. Lawrence apparently over-committed to the shoot, which involved playing football on a beach.

Rather than playing "pretty" football, Lawrence recalls being red-faced and covered in sweat, joking that one model asked the crew to "get her away from me."
(#10) She Never Took Acting Classes

Because Lawrence was discovered so suddenly, her acting career took off before she'd had the chance to do any formal training. But that's what made her unique. When Lawrence finally did go to an acting coach, he told her not to take classes or see teachers, because they would just make her acting "like everybody else."
(#12) She Was Voted Most Talkative In Middle School - Twice

Lawrence often comes off as chatty and personable in interviews, sometimes sharing to the point of over-sharing. So it's no surprise that she was voted "Most Talkative" by her middle school classmates two years in a row.
(#6) She Auditioned To Play Bella In 'Twilight'

Lawrence auditioned to play the role of Bella Swan in Twilight when she was 17 years old. She described it as "just another audition," and said she didn't realize the impact of Twilight until the film came out. After that, Lawrence was happy she didn't actually land the role and all the baggage that came with it.
Other major roles she auditioned for? Jules in Superbad, which went to Emma Stone, and Lisbeth Salander in Girl With A Dragon Tattoo, which went to Rooney Mara.
(#11) Her Mystique Make-Up Stained Her Bathtub

For her role as Mystique in X-Men: First Class, Lawrence had to sit or stand on a bicycle for eight hours while the blue paint was applied to her body. The body paint irritated her skin and stained the bathtub of her apartment, which caused a problem when she tried to get her security deposit back.
The make-up was such a hassle that Lawrence started wearing a body suit in X-Men: Days of Future Past, leaving only the face paint, which took a mere three hours to apply.
(#9) She Got In A Car Accident Because She Thought She Saw Honey Boo Boo

Lawrence's pension for accidents doesn't end with those red carpet trips. In 2012, Lawrence rear-ended a family's car in Georgia because she thought she saw reality TV star Honey Boo Boo. As she told Jay Leno on The Tonight Show, she was driving by a breast cancer parade and mistook the word "boobs" for "boo boo."

She was straining to catch a better look when she got in the fender bender.
