Jennifer Lawrence leaving Los Angeles

THE HUNGER GAMES star JENNIFER LAWRENCE is moving out of Los Angeles because she is convinced her life in Hollywood is "far from normal".

The 22 year old, who was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, has lived in California while pursuing an acting career but now she is fed up with being hounded by photographers on a daily basis.

Lawrence admits she is desperate for a change of scenery - and is even contemplating a move to Europe.

She tells W magazine, "Sadly, I cannot live in Los Angeles anymore. I don't understand how actors can do it. You have no life here. You are followed everywhere. It's not like that anywhere else in the world. I don't want to stay in L.A. and start thinking that's reality - because it's very far from normal.

"But I still love movies. I'm just going to love being in them from Kentucky, or Prague, or somewhere else."
