Jennifer Lawrence Talks Planned Parenthood's Role in Her Life
Jennifer Lawrence took the cover of Glamour magazine’s February 2016 issue, where she made a stand for Planned Parenthood.
“Planned Parenthood is so much more [than abortion]… I wouldn’t have been able to get birth control if it weren’t for Planned P. I wouldn’t have been able to get condoms and birth control and all these things I needed as a normal teenager who was growing up in a Jesus house,” the 25-year-old Oscar winner told the mag. “And now [gestures widely] I am a successful woman who has not had a pregnancy… But seriously. What harm comes from supplying people with birth control, condoms, Pap smears, and cancer screenings?”

On being famous: “I think that we should be allowed time off [from being famous]… Three months. ‘Oh, it’s my three months off. You can’t photograph me.’ I would love to be able to control being photographed. Then I wouldn’t have a new headline out today that I wore the same jeans three days in a row. [Laughs.]”
On Chris Pratt being described as the male version of her: “Chris Pratt is always in a good mood. We laugh all day�. He’s like a chocolate Santa. He’s just like if a dog came to life and was like, ‘I’m a great actor with a perfect face.’”
