'People liked that I was the underdog'

Reflecting on her massive career resurgence, Jennifer mused that perhaps people liked that she was the "underdog" in Hollywood for a number of years and joked that she "cannot even walk down the street" now without being recognised.

She said: "I was recently walking in the North End in Boston, and I couldn't make it down the street. I think it's so interesting.

"I guess it's the Internet. I don't know - or maybe I have a weird walk. I think people liked that I was the underdog. I played a lot of strange women, and people were amused by the comedies I've done. Then Mike White put me in 'The White Lotus' and it was a drama and comedy at the same time - I never really had that."
