In a June 2023 interview with Interview Magazine, Lawrence talked with actress Cameron Diaz, 52, about how having her son influenced her feelings towards paparazzi.

"I do my best," she answered when Diaz asked about how she protects her son. "I was so nervous when I was pregnant. I was getting paparazzi'd, and I was just like, 'How the f--- am I not going to lose it on these guys when they're taking a picture of my baby?' "

"Then once he was here, I realized that my energy is more important to him than anything else," Lawrence explained. "So if he feels that I'm anxious before I leave the house, or I'm angry when we're outside, that's going to impact him."

"So it's actually done the opposite, where I've gotten a little bit more zen and a little bit more relaxed with getting photographed because I don't have a choice."

"You just have to accept it, take a deep breath and walk. I don't want him to inherit the anxiety and anger that I have," she concluded.

Elsewhere in the chat, Lawrence praised her husband, saying that the art dealer, 39, is "the greatest father in the entire world.

“So when I’m working, I don’t have any more guilt than the usual every day, all-day parent guilt," she added.

The Hunger Games star further detailed the difficulties of raising a child while working in Hollywood, explaining that she became more selecting in choosing her projects after welcoming Cy in 2022.

“There’s no squeezing when you have a baby,” Lawrence said at the time. “It definitely helps weed out projects: ‘Yes. No. Yes. No. Yes. No. Is this worth being away from my child for half the day?’ "

In 2022, Lawrence spoke with Vogue about how motherhood had changed her life. “I mean the euphoria of Cy is just— Jesus, it’s impossible,” Lawrence said. “I always tell him, I love you so much it’s impossible.”
