An ally! Jennifer Lawrence shows her support for the LGBTQ+ community while purchasing a Pride flag in NYC
Jennifer Lawrence showed her support for the LGBTQ+ community while purchasing a rainbow-striped flag, which represents gay pride, on Sunday afternoon.
While pushing a black stroller down the street in New York City, the 32-year-old Don’t Look Up star looked effortlessly cool in a black t-shirt, baggy white pants and a pair of coordinating Adidas sneakers.
The mom-of-one, who welcomed her son Cy last year with husband Cooke Maroney, accessorized her laid-back look with a gold chain and aviator sunglasses.
She wore a plain baseball cap over her golden tresses, that she opted to style in two braids as she celebrated Pride Month.
The Oscar-winning actress was seen heading home from Washington Square Park, a frequent place for LGBT+ activists to organize, rally and protest.

Lawrence has been vocal about supporting gay rights and previously told Vogue that she doesn’t want to stay ‘quiet about’ basic rights, like gay marriage and equality.
In the same 2015 interview, she also confirmed that she is ‘straight as an arrow.’
The following year, after Donald Trump was elected president, she penned a column for Broadly, in which she urged those who are LGBTQ+ not to ‘be afraid’ to ‘be loud.’
‘Let this be the fire you didn’t have before,’ she encouraged. ‘We’re all allowed to be sad that the present isn’t what we thought it was. But we mustn’t be defeated.’
Her latest sighting comes after joking that she ‘only’ wants to be cast in R-rated films from now on, after starring in her raunchy new comedy No Hard Feelings.
Speaking to pal Cameron Diaz for Interview Magazine, Jennifer admitted she’s always wanted to star in a comedy, but struggled to find a part that was funny enough.
She said: ‘It was a blast. I’ve always wanted to do comedy and I’ve been asked a million times.
‘I was never against it, but you’ve seen the movies that come out. I don’t want to name anything specifically, but there hasn’t been anything that funny.’

Given this is Jennifer’s first role in a raunchy comedy, Cameron said: ‘This is something you were born to do, hard R comedies. It might be your sweet spot.’
Jennifer then replied: ‘If that’s my sweet spot, then I don’t ever want to do anything else.’
And despite finding her new ‘sweet spot,’ Jennifer went onto brand Camerona the reigning ‘icon of R-rated comedies.’
Jennifer in No Hard Feelings portrays 32-year-old Uber driver and bartender Maddie who answers a Craigslist ad from ‘helicopter parents’ seeking a ‘date’ for their 19-year-old son Percy [Andrew Barth Feldman].
She also is a co-producer of the R-rated comedy directed by Gene Stupnitsky, 45, from a screenplay he co-wrote with John Phillips.
