At the age of 22, she is already an Oscar winning actress and has the pick of Hollywood movie roles.
But it seems Jennifer Lawrence saw it all coming from a young age.
In a new interview with Vogue, the actress says she foresaw her fame while growing up in Kentucky.
'Ever since I was really little, I've always had a very normal idea of what I wanted,' she tells the magazine. 'I was going to be a mom and I was going to be a doctor and I was going to live in Kentucky.
'But I always knew that I was going to be famous. I honest to God don't know how else to describe it. I used to lie in bed and wonder: "Am I going to be a local TV person? Am I going to be a motivational speaker."
'It wasn't a vision. But as it's kind of happening, you have this buried understanding: Of course.'
However, not everything always went so smoothly for the actress who reprises her role of Katniss Everdeen in Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire out in November.
'I was a weirdo,' she said about her childhood. 'I wasn't picked on or anything. And I wasn't smarter than the other kids. That's not why I didn't fit in. I've just had this weird anxiety. I hated recess. I didn't like field trips. Parties really stressed me out.'
Nowadays, it's her growing fame which is proving hard to handle.
'I teeter on seeming ungrateful when I talk about this,' she declares. 'But I'm kind of going through a meltdown about it lately. All of a sudden, the entire world feels entitled to know everything about my me.
'I am just not okay with it. It's as simple as that. I am just a normal girl and a human being and I haven't been in this long enough to feel like this is my new normal. I'm not going to find peace with it.'
After filming Catching Fire, Jennifer turned down a vacation to take on the role of Rosalyn, Christian Bale's wife in American Hustle in a part written expressly for her by her Silver Linings Playbook director David O'Russell.
'Rosalyn is 100 percent a product of David's imagination,' says Jennifer. 'She's a manic depressive alcoholic and I couldn't wait. Plus, I got to make out with Christina Bale.
'I couldn't say no. And then when I was on set, I was like "This is much more important than a vacation". It's so much better for my brain to be creatively stimulated in this way, It reminded me: "This is what I love."
-I.
