We hear you, missus, it's the worst feeling in the world. Coffee is not your friend. Florescent lights, not your friend. People shoving microphones in your face and being constantly on display must be categorically not your friend, and yet you manage to get on with it. I couldn't. Red carpet interviews with famous sorts came to a pretty abrupt halt 'cause - as it turned out - my body would attempt to turn itself inside out by various means before such encounters, which meant I wasn't very good at the question asking part.
There's no running and hiding for Jennifer, however. She's turned her constant anxiety into a positive by stating it keeps her from getting a big head:
"I'm always just very nervous. I never feel like, 'I've got this.' I'm always very nervous and aware of how quickly people can hate you and that scares me. I never feel like I'm on top of it or I know what I'm doing... so, no. I never get a big head, I just get more and more anxious."
Instead of asking her how she deals with that relentless anxiousness, day, after day, after day, interviewers were more concerned with what it was like going bra-less for her roll in American Hustle (it's sent in 1970s New York. Go figure). She said: "I normally wear bras. I wouldn't say that it's ever exciting to see yourself without a bra in a dress that's three sizes too small for you. It was... freeing."
Now that the entire marketing campaign for American Hustle is pretty much boxed off thanks to the mention of bra-lessness, it's time to give a cursory nod to Jennifer's co-star in the movie, Christian Bale, who said: "She loves nothing more than a good fight. She's up for it. She's a tough cookie. And she talks like a sailor, so I enjoy those conversations with her."
Given her level of anxiousness mixed with his propensity to combust when interrupted, those conversations were probably hell on earth for poor Jennifer.
