An ally! Jennifer Lawrence shows her support for the LGBTQ+ community by buying a Pride flag in NYC
Jennifer Lawrence showed her support for the LGBTQ+ community by buying a rainbow striped flag symbolizing gay pride on Sunday afternoon.
As the 32-year-old Don’t Look Up star pushed a black stroller down the street in New York, she looked effortlessly cool in a black tee, baggy white pants and a pair of matching Adidas trainers.
The mother-of-one, who gave birth to son Cy with husband Cooke Maroney last year, complemented her casual look with a gold chain and aviator sunglasses.
She wore a simple baseball cap over her golden tresses, which she wore in two pigtails to celebrate Pride Month.
The Oscar-winning actress was seen walking home from Washington Square Park, a frequent place for LGBT+ activists to organize, march and protest.

Lawrence has been vocal in support of gay rights, previously telling Vogue that she doesn’t want to be “silent” about fundamental rights like gay marriage and equal rights.
In the same 2015 interview, she also confirmed that she was “straight as an arrow.”
The following year, after Donald Trump was elected president, she penned a column for Broadly urging LGBTQ+ people not to be “afraid” of “being loud.”
“Let this be the fire you didn’t have before,” she encouraged. “We can all be sad that the present is not what we thought. But we must not admit defeat.”
Her latest sighting comes after she joked that she “only” wants to be cast in R-rated movies from now on after starring in her raunchy new comedy No Hard Feelings.
Speaking to her pal Cameron Diaz for Interview Magazine, Jennifer admitted she’s always wanted to be in a comedy but struggled to find a role that was funny enough.
She said: “It was a great time. I’ve always wanted to do comedy and have been asked a million times.
“I’ve never been against it, but you’ve seen the movies that have come out. I don’t want to give specifics, but nothing fun like this has happened before.”

Given that this is Jennifer’s first role in a raunchy comedy, Cameron said, ‘It’s something you were born to do, hard R-comedies.’ It could be your sweet spot.’
Jennifer then replied, “If that’s my sweet spot, then I never want to do anything else.”
And while Jennifer found her new “sweet spot,” she continued to refer to Camerona as the reigning “R-rated comedy icon.”
In No Hard Feelings, Jennifer portrays 32-year-old Uber driver and bartender Maddie, who responds to a Craigslist ad from “helicopter parents” looking to “date” their 19-year-old son, Percy [Andrew Barth Feldman].
She is also co-producing the R-rated comedy directed by Gene Stupnitsky, 45, from a screenplay he co-wrote with John Phillips.
