Jennifer Lawrence reveals she feels ‘like an ogre’ in heels and turns into a ‘chihuahua’ on the red carpet

Jennifer Lawrence may be the epitome of elegance as she steps out in Dior dress after Dior dress and ruled the red carpet this awards season but the star doesn’t believe the frontline of fashion is wear she belongs.

JENNIFER LAWRENCE: I DON’T HAVE TIME TO FEEL COCKY

Speaking to Fabulous magazine Jennifer Lawrence revealed walking the red carpet doesn’t appeal to her, she said: ‘It’s not my comfort zone. Making movies is where I belong. I shouldn’t be heard just talking.

‘So, when I’m doing movies, I’m really happy. That’s where I’m comfortable, that’s my home. When you put me on a red carpet or on a stage, I turn into chihuahua Jennifer.’

We’re afraid we have to disagree!

But it’s not just being in front of the flashbulbs that makes the star feel uncomfortable, she always shares Kristen Stewart’s hatred of heels.

‘When I’m in high heels I feel like an ogre,’ Jennifer said. ‘I can’t walk and my feet are uncomfortable. I’m at that awkward height where I’m already kind of tall [5ft 7½in], so when I put heels on, everyone is like: “Oh, well, where’s the ball?” It’s just that they make me look too dressed up and yeah, I’m terrible in heels.’

Not that she looks it!
