Jennifer Lawrence Lands Top 20 Hit in UK, Australia With ‘The Hanging Tree’
There really isn't anything she can't do!
— -- Yep, Jennifer Lawrence has a Top 20 hit on her hands.
The "Hunger Games" star, 24, is an Oscar-winning actress and now is dominating the music scene.
Lawrence's hit "The Hanging Tree" off "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay -- Part 1" soundtrack reached 14 on the U.K. singles chart and 12 on Australia's Top 50, according to Billboard magazine.
"The Hanging Tree" features Lawrence and James Newton Howard, and is written by "Hunger Games" author Suzanne Collins.
This success is before Billboard has released its Hot 100 singles chart, but the magazine implies she's primed for a birth on the coveted list.
The song is also featured in the movie and sang by Lawrence's character Katniss Everdeen to inspire the rebellion.
Can we expect more singing from Lawrence in the future? Maybe not.
In an interview with HitFix, she admitted she "cried" during the process.
"I can't stand singing. The idea of singing in front of people is like my biggest fear in the entire world," she said. "I cried the day I shot that and I was shaking, and I was like, 'I want my mom!'"
Lawrence also added that she's never listened to the song.
