Jessica Chastain isn't a mean girl, despite what people may think.
The actress shot down rumors that she's feuding with Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence in the March issue of Haute Living.
Speculation of their discord began in 2013 when the 28-year-old was
nominated for an Academy Award for her performance in "Zero Dark
Thirty."
Despite having won the Golden Globe that year, J-Law instead took home
the coveted Best Actress award for "Silver Linings Playbook."
"[The media] were trying to get headlines and get clicks, [and] were
trying to fabricate a fake rivalry between Jennifer Lawrence and myself
and I immediately came out and said this is a media myth that has to
stop," she told the magazine.
She added that she cheers "for women to succeed" because "that means there's going to be that many more roles for women."
One thing that impressed the "The Help" star about J-Law is her “Why Do
I Make Less Than My Male Co-Stars?” essay that appeared in Lena
Dunham's Lenny Letter.
“It was incredible. I loved her op-ed…and I was really disappointed
after she wrote it that she got criticism. Sometimes people have that
attitude where ‘You’re an actress making a lot of money, how dare you
complain?'"
