In the nine years since Jennifer Lawrence's breakout role in 2010's Winter's Bone, the actress has established herself as the ultimate onscreen badass and one of Hollywood's most desirable BFFs, the combination of which makes her box office and newsstand gold. Even better, her infectious personality isn't a PR product — after all, she was bringing on the LOL-worthy moments way before she got super famous, and she clearly lacks the filter necessary to emulate anyone else's path to fame. Let's look back at all the times we could not hide our admiration for the daring A-lister.
