Can I be a dissenting voice here? Personally, I can't stand Lawrence, and find her as phony as Monopoly money. In a weird discovery for me, I heard Kristen Stewart with Leonard Lopate a couple of weeks ago and thought she's exactly what Lawrence puts on the pretense of being: Someone who honestly doesn't give a rat's ass about "stardom" and who is far more interested in doing interesting projects and then going away and living (what sounded like) a real life among actual people until she comes across something she thinks is worthwhile. Before this interview, I had no interest in Stewart at all, marking her as "that Twilight girl," but I found her to be interesting, funny, and savvy. Lawrence always strikes me as Acting Too Hard at being "quirky" and "normal" and comes across as anything but for me.
If nothing else, she owes me Big Time for both "Silver Linings Playbook" and "American Hustle."

After 20 years of fame, Clooney's humble personna may be fake, I don't think Jennifer Lawrence's personna is fake. Part of it simply is because it appears the lights are on and someone is home. She has even veered towards some politically incorrect comments, such as her indifference to PETA's criticism of bowhunting. Jon Stewart is a big fan of her acting, BTW.

Well if Lawrence's persona is fake, then she's an even better actress than I already thought she was.
(SNIP) I know we all have our different modes for different situations. If she's fundamentally different than this, then as Mr Bowie noted she's a helluva actress.

First, my apologies for being unclear on this (and I realized it when I was standing in the Costco parking lot last night). I wasn't matching up Lohan and Lawrence as actresses. Rather I was matching them as David Letterman guests. My apologies.Here is my extent of actual experience with Ms Lawrence's career: when Jack Nicholson interrupted her interview with George Stephanopoulos after winning the Oscar, and her interviews with Dave. She may be a lousy, lousy actress, but she's an incredible guest, and Dave goes into a rare mode with her that, as Tom noted, is at the Hunt/Garr level.
