Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss

In the upcoming interview, which will be released this Friday, Jennifer Lawrence compared playing the role of Katniss to her experience with the Oscars.

"(Gary Ross) was asking me what the experience was like, and I just kind of opened up and said, 'I feel like a rag doll. I have hair and makeup people coming to my house every day and putting me in new, uncomfortable, weird dresses and expensive shoes, and I just shut down and raise my arms up for them to get the dress on, and pout my lips when they need to put the lipstick on.' And we both started laughing because that's exactly what it's like for Katniss in the Capitol. She was a girl who's all of a sudden being introduced to fame. I know what that feels like to have all this flurry around you and feel like, 'Oh, no, I don't belong here.'"
