Happy National Eating Disorders Awareness Week
February 25, 2013
What a great way to start National Eating Disorders Awareness Week: Jennifer Lawrence is so unexpectedly fierce. She has said a lot of awesome things about loving her body, despite being considered “obese” by Hollywood standards. I loved watching her in this clip above. She is just being her goofy, relate-able, human self even when the environment pulls for outward beauty and the illusion of perfection.
Jennifer Lawrence, you can be my wing man anytime.
