Jennifer Lawrence wants the industry to create a “new normal-body type” because of the flawed perspectives on body image and what should be considered “normal.”

“I would like us to make a new normal-body type,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “Everybody says, ‘We love that there is somebody with a normal body!’ And I’m like, ‘I don’t feel like I have a normal body.’ I do Pilates every day. I eat, but I work out a lot more than a normal person.”

She added, “I think we’ve gotten so used to underweight that when you are a normal weight it’s like, ‘Oh, my God, she’s curvy.’
