Jennifer Lawrence Reveals Real Reason For Wearing Flip-Flops at Cannes 2023
In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Jennifer Lawrence addressed the reason behind her choice to wear black flip-flops on the red carpet at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. The renowned actress clarified that her decision was not driven by any political agenda, although she mentioned that she wouldn’t shy away from making a statement if she wanted to.
“I was not making a political statement, not that I wouldn’t,” she clarified to the publication.
Lawrence, known for her roles in films like The Hunger Games and Silver Linings Playbook, expressed her surprise at the controversy that arose over people wearing flats or going barefoot on the red carpet.“I had no clue. My shoes were a size too big,” the Hollywood star confessed. She explained that she had to take a picture with her cast from Anatomy of a Fall, and she was aware that she might stumble into shoes that were too large for her.
“I knew I would go down in the shoes that were a size too big,” she shared. Thus, she opted for “the flip-flops,” which led to the exaggerated response of people perceiving it as a deliberate statement.
“I’m all for making a statement. I just would want it to be on purpose,”
