Marking a huge surprise for fans of the actress and "The Hunger Games" alike, the song she sings in the first installment of "Mockingjay", has reached Billboard status in the United Kingdom: Jennifer Lawrence's "The Hanging Tree" is a hit, all while getting cozy with co-star Liam Hemsworth!
While it is known that J-Law is perhaps the most talented actress of her generation - she hasn't even hit 24 and she's already got an Oscar and two more nominations -, but the latest success of Jennifer Lawrence's "The Hanging Tree" also shows she's beloved for something else: her pipes!
In "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part I," her character, Katniss Everdeen, becomes a symbol for revolution in the battered country of Panem - and it's then when Jennifer Lawrence's "The Hanging Tree" performance becomes a thing, as a camera crew follows her around while the country enters civil war.
According to The Daily Mail, the song has become a wild hit in the country of Shakespeare and The Beatles: right now, Jennifer Lawrence's "The Hanging Tree" has reached number 8 in the United Kingdom's iTunes countdown this week, certainly marking the first time the "Silver Linings Playbook" actress has a hit song in the country.
Last year, J-Law's "American Hustle" performance featured a scene where her character lip-synched to the classic Paul McCartney and Wings song "Live and Let Die," in one of the best scenes of the movie, which got Lawrence her third Academy Award nomination.
Though the chart number is higher in iTunes, it seems that Jennifer Lawrence's "The Hanging Tree" has reached 29 overall in the European country's Official Charts Company, according to Time Magazine.
In any case, this would only be the latest bit of success for the actress, who this year also saw the latest film of another franchise she's a part of: "X-Men: Days of Future Past," where she plays mutant Mystique.
Whatever Jennifer Lawrence's "The Hanging Tree" success ends up being, there's certainly one thing she can be happy with: according to several news outlets such as Hollywood Life, she's now dating her co-star Liam Hemsworth, the very same who was engaged to pop star Miley Cyrus not too long ago.
So, considering Liam is the brother of Thor actor Chris Hemsworth, does this mean that Mystique and Thor could be in-laws? Insane Marvel news right there!
