For two years, the star of “The Hunger Games” has managed to maintain a leading position in the list of the highest paid actresses. And this is last fact about Jennifer Lawrence from our selection.

A few months ago, a message appeared in the press that the famous Quentin Tarantino decided to make a film about the life and tragic death actress Sharon Tate, who died in August 1969. There is nothing surprising in this, except that the actress has not yet been chosen for main role. Rumor has it that Quentin settled on 2 movie stars: Margot Robbie and Jennifer Lawrence, only one of them categorically does not suit the relatives of the deceased Tate.

Debra Tate vs Lawrence

Until the filming of the biographical film about Sharon's sister began deceased celebrity- 69-year-old Debra Tate, who is known in America as a very successful makeup artist, decided to express her point of view regarding who should play her sister. These are the words Debra said:

"Lawrence and Robbie - wonderful actresses, but I think that the main role in this film should go to Margot. I understand how terrible things I have to say now, but I made my choice very consciously. The fact is that Jennifer is not beautiful enough to play Sharon. For many years, my sister was an icon of style and beauty of the time, all thanks to the fact that she had stunning looks. In addition, I attended the auditions and saw how the two actresses work. What can I say, Lawrence has a completely different presentation of emotions - tougher, or something, while Robbie is somehow very airy and graceful. This is exactly what Sharon was, as many people remember her. If Tarantino decides to film Jennifer, I will be very disappointed. Maybe this will all work out good movie, but it definitely won’t be about Sharon Tate.”

After these words, there have been no comments from Robbie, Lawrence and Quentin in the press yet. As for the fans famous actresses, however, like the director, a number of votes appeared on the Internet about who viewers would like to see in the biographical film. However, as practice shows, Tarantino makes decisions himself, and sometimes they are so extraordinary that they amaze those around him. Despite this, many of Quentin's projects are very successful.

Sharon was brutally murdered by members of the Charles Manson cult

The famous actress Tate was in Los Angeles at her home on the day of her murder. Her husband, film director Roman Polanski, was not at home at the time due to the fact that he was on a business trip. A few hours before the murder, Sharon's sisters invited her to spend the night with them, but she refused. Instead, the woman went to El Coyote restaurant for dinner with friends Jay Sebring, Wojtek Frykowski and Abigail Folger. The company returned at about half past ten and immediately went to bed. An hour later, killers, who turned out to be members of the Charles Manson sect, broke into the house and killed those in the house with knife and gunshot wounds. At the time of her death, Sharon was 8 months pregnant, but this fact did not stop the killers.

It turns out that the 36-year-old comedienne and the 26-year-old Passengers star are fast friends. And in their “sister” company there is one more person...

Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer spent time together: the latter shared in her Instagram photo, in which the girls are captured in the company of Woody Harrelson. Judging by the atmosphere and their relaxed appearance, the trio was visiting someone. Amy captioned this photo briefly: “Sisters” (I wonder if she included Harrelson in that too?)

In the late afternoon, the actors went to the New York comedy club Comedy Cellar, where Harrelson was scheduled to perform a stand-up performance. Amy immortalized this moment by posting a photo of him standing at the microphone. She herself also seemed to take part in the show.

Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence have been friends since 2015, despite never meeting on film set. However, such a turn was inevitable: both are famous for their excellent sense of humor, and they could not help but notice each other!

Actually, it was the fearless and spontaneous Lawrence who took the first step towards the meeting: after seeing and highly appreciating her colleague’s work in the comedy “Girl Without Complexes,” she decided to write to her about her impressions.

"I sent her an email," she shared last year. "I wrote, 'I don't know where to start, but I guess I just have to say this: I'm in love with you.' We started corresponding"

By the way, now the comedians are going to star together in a film for which they themselves wrote the script. "It's about two sisters who go on a road trip to connect with their brother," Lawrence said in December. "The script is complete and we're trying to coordinate our schedules."

Is Woody Harrelson going to play their brother?..

It looks like there is a new popular look for actresses in Hollywood. If earlier in fashion there were busty girls with bow lips, then slender and tall ladies- the very embodiment of elegance, now every day more and more often round-faced pretty girls with heavy eyelids, almond-shaped eyes and plump lips ascend to the pedestal of fame.

Among the brightest representatives of this type is everyone’s favorite Renee Zellweger(which, however, has already been undertaken)...

Incredibly popular today Jennifer Lawrence...

AND Haley Bennett.

Doesn't the name Hayley mean anything to you? Don't worry, this is temporary! Over the next few months, this girl will turn from a little-known actress into new Jennifer: right now, blockbusters with her participation such as "The Magnificent Seven"- yes, yes, she played the only female role there - and the long-awaited one "The Girl on the Train"


Hayley in "The Magnificent Seven"

Hayley in "The Girl on the Train"

It's no joke, two major premieres in a row, and with the main female roles at once!

It is not surprising that, becoming more recognizable and popular every day, Hayley also receives many comparisons with Lawrence - the girls actually look like sisters.

But no, they are not relatives: 26-year-old Jennifer and 28-year-old Hayley have never even acted together. But they would make a good on-screen team!

Sharon Tate/Jennifer Lawrence

For several days now Western press a film is being discussed that director Quentin Tarantino is preparing to present. It will be dedicated to the 26-year-old actress and model, wife of Roman Polanski, Sharon Tate (the star died at the hands of members of the Charles Manson sect on August 9, 1969). But the question remains unresolved: who will still play the role of a celebrity in the film?

Sharon Tate's sister Debra said she did not consider the 26-year-old as a contender for the leading role. By the way, it is Jennifer who can star in Quentin Tarantino’s film. However, this information has not yet been confirmed. But Debra decided to express her opinion on this matter from the very beginning. At the same time, they claim that this role will probably go to 27-year-old Margot Robbie.

They are both wonderful actresses, but I would like to say that I would choose Margot. Just because her outer beauty and the way she carries herself reminds me a lot of Sharon...But I can't say the same about Jennifer. I have nothing against her. But it seems to me that she is not beautiful enough to play this role. It's terrible to say such things, but I have my own standards... External beauty wouldn't be so important if it weren't for six years successful career Sharon, who were repelled precisely by her external perfection,

Debra told Western publications.



Whether the creators of the future film will agree with her opinion remains a mystery. Moreover, Jennifer Lawrence and Margot Robbie themselves have so far refrained from commenting. Fans are now extremely curious about how Jennifer reacted to Debra’s words.

Let us remind you that Sharon Tate was killed at night in a house on Cielo Drive. Sixteen stab wounds were found on her body, five of which were fatal. At that time, the celebrity was eight months pregnant. Her husband Roman Polanski was not in Los Angeles. He was planning to arrive in a few days.


Sharon tearfully begged the criminals to spare her and the unborn baby, but nothing could stop the killers. Jay Sebring, Wojtek Frykowski and Abigail Folger were with Tate that night. All of them were also killed. The police managed to arrest only one - caretaker William Garretson. For a long time he tried to deny his guilt, citing the fact that he did not see or hear anything.

Roman Polanski couldn't believe what happened. He literally suspected everyone, including close friends, but found the strength to come to terms with what happened when the names of the killers were made public.
