Jennifer Lawrence on being called ‘fat’ and a ‘stuttering idiot’

Jennifer Lawrence is putting her haters on blast, though she isn’t naming names.

In a cover story in the November issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK, the young Oscar-winner talks about the negative feedback she’s already received during her short career, including people telling her she was overweight or calling her a “stuttering idiot.�

“I was young. It was just the kind of ... that actresses have to go through,� the 23-year-old told the mag (via the Mirror.) “Somebody told me I was fat, that I was going to get fired if I didn’t lose a certain amount of weight. They brought in pictures of me where I was basically naked, and told me to use them as motivation for my diet.�

Ouch.

“They thought that because of the way my career had gone, it wouldn’t still hurt me. That somehow, after I won an Oscar, I’m above it all. ‘You really still care about that?’ Yeah. I was a little girl. I was hurt,� she added. “It doesn’t matter what accolades you get. I know it’ll never happen to me again. If anybody even tries to whisper the word ‘diet,’ I’m like, ‘You can go ... yourself.’�

The zany actress took home the coveted lead actress award for her role as a ballroom-dance-loving widow in David O. Russell’s dramedy “Silver Linings Playbook.� As she went to accept the honor, she stumbled on the stairs and didn’t totally recover when it was time to give her speech. She received a standing ovation but called out the audience saying, “You guys are standing up because you felt bad that I fell, which is embarrassing. This is nuts.� Apparently, there was a backlash following that wipeout too.

“[The other person said] other people are getting up and owning the stage and you sound like a stuttering idiot. Pull it together. I said, ‘I’m not doing it on purpose, I’m uncomfortable and when people get uncomfortable they resort to their ... .’ I make awkward jokes and stutter,� she said.

“That was actually a moment when I really wanted it to be special. That was not the time I wanted to be the down-home Girl. I wanted to be graceful.�

Funny enough, the Ministry thought she handled the whole mishap quite well ... .

Lawrence returns to theaters Nov. 22 in the highly anticipated “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,� the second film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ young adult novel series. Last week she started filming the third installment of the four-part film series in Georgia, E! News reported. The three books in Collins’ trilogy about a dystopian televised battle for survival will be made into four films.

The Kentucky native is also back on the big screen next May reprising her role as shape-shifting mutant Mystique in “X-Men: Days of Future Past� and has already completed filming the 1970s throwback flick “American Hustle� with her “Silver Linings Playbook� director Russell and costar Bradley Cooper. She’ll also make a cameo appearence as the younger version of Kathleen Turner’s Fraida Felcher in Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels’ “Dumb and Dumber� sequel.

The accolades and critical praise aren’t what motivate her. The jokester said that it was “the money� -- and on-set catering.

“My bodyguard Gilbert, right before they call ‘action,’ I’m like, ‘If there aren’t Cheez-Its here by the time they call cut, just go home.’ And he’ll start running. It cracks me up how seriously he takes it,� she said. “It’s not my performance that is motivating me. I want to get the on-set catering.�
