Jennifer Lawrence hit back at speculation that she has had plastic surgery on her nose and eyes in an interview with Kylie Jenner.
The 33-year-old Oscar-winner hosted a Q&A with the 26-year-old make-up mogul – who got candid about her recent reunion with Jordyn Woods – in the latest edition of Interview Magazine.
Jennifer – who was seen with her son in New York over the weekend – insisted that her recent change in appearance was due to a make-up technique.
She said: ‘I also think it’s incredible what make-up can do because I work with. Hung [Vanngo], who overlines the lip, and I call him a plastic surgeon, because everybody in the last few months since I’ve been working with him is convinced that I had eye surgery.’
Jennifer took a hard stand on the controversy as she reiterated: ‘I’m like, “I didn’t have eye surgery. I’m doing make-up.”
Kylie complimented the actress as she said: ‘Oh my god. You know, you’ve been looking amazing. Have you always worked with him?’
Jennifer responded by joking with a laugh: ‘Well, apparently I’ve had full plastic surgery.’
Kylie backed up the actress as she said: ‘No, I’ve been seeing the pictures. It doesn’t look like that.’
The mother-of-two then got candid about the scrutiny over her face as she once again insisted that she has only had lip fillers.
She said: ‘I did end up getting lip fillers, but it’s also the same with me. I’ll see before and after photos when I’m 12 years old versus 26 and my eyebrows are filled differently. I have contour on. I’m like, “How can you compare my 12-year-old face and say I’ve gotten my jaw shaved and eyelids removed?” I’m like, “What are we talking about?”‘
Jennifer responded by saying that people do not understand how much aging and maturing changes one’s appearance.
She explained: ‘I have the same thing. I started at 19, so I get the before and after pictures from when I’m 19 to 30 and I’m like, “I grew up. I lost baby weight in my face, and my face changed because I’m aging.”
‘Everybody thought I had a nose job, and I’m like, “I’ve had the exact same nose. My cheeks got smaller. Thank you for bringing it up.”‘
Meanwhile, Jennifer and Kylie bonded over their roles as mothers as the make-up mogul has two children with rapper Travis Scott – five-year-old daughter Stormi and 21-month-old son Aire Webster – while The Hunger Games star is mom to 21-month-old son Cy.
The two A-listers chatted about having to have security details with them at all times while out in public as Jennifer asked the reality star how her kids react to having another person with them.
Kylie said: ‘I was young when I got pregnant, but I never had security until I got pregnant. I have two security in rotation for them and they have been with me for five-plus years. She’s very familiar with them, which I feel comfortable with. She actually has a lot of love for them.
‘I just tell my security to not make it so serious, so they have a good relationship. I’m trying to figure it out too because I never had security growing up, so I don’t know what that’s like, but I try to make it as normal and friendly as possible.’
Jennifer said that she initially believed that she thought there would be no personal connection with a bodyguard before realizing that they actually play a crucial part in the lives of her family.
She explained: ‘Yeah, friendly is nice because before I hired them, in my mind I was like, I want them to be invisible. I don’t want my kid to see you or know you. And then once they start working for you, it’s like, “Well, wait. This is a person in our life. He’s helping us.”
‘That’s not really a good lesson to ignore the person that’s helping us. It’s probably better to say, “Say good morning to Sean. Hi. How are you?” We’ve incorporated them more in our lives, which surprised me. That wasn’t how I planned it.’
Earlier in the interview Kylie commended Jennifer on her interviewing skills.
The Silver Linings Playbook actress asked: ‘How do you get your coffee? Do you go downstairs and get it? Does somebody bring it to you?’
