Jennifer Lawrence On Amy Schumer And Friendship After Fame: ‘My Bulls--t Detector Is Phenomenal’

Entertainment Weekly has named Jennifer Lawrence as its Entertainer of the Year on Tuesday. The 25-year-old actress opened up to the magazine about some of her famous friends, like Amy Schumer, and what fame has taught her about friendship.

"I have a very small circle. The moment I feel like someone is using me or is in it for the wrong reasons, I have zero guilt about just cutting them the f--k out of my life," she told EW. "My bulls--t detector is phenomenal. None of my friends bulls--t me. Everything in my life has to be real."

Lawrence told the magazine that her small circle included her "Hunger Games" co-stars Liam Hemsworth, Josh Hutcherson and Woody Harrelson, as well as Amy Schumer and her sister Kim Caramele, who are writing a screenplay together, as HNGN previously reported.

"They're brilliant writers, too. We work really well together - it's been the most fun thing ever," Lawrence said of the sisters, according to People. "All I do is laugh."

In the still untitled film, Schumer and Lawrence will play two very different sisters. Schumer will play the sister that has her life together while Lawrence will take on the role of the sister who is "a mess."

For her next role, Lawrence teamed up with David O. Russell for the third time for the film "Joy." Lawrence and Russell had previously worked on her Academy Award-winning role in "Silver Linings Playbook" as well as "American Hustle."

"David and I will never, ever, ever, ever not do movies together," she told EW. "I love him so much that sometimes I can't talk about him without tearing up. Look! I'm tearing up. I understand every look, every eyeball move, every word he says or doesn't say. We were made for each other."

"Joy" comes out on Christmas Day.
