Actress Jennifer Lawrence fears she will never "find peace" with her new life as a paparazzi target because she cannot understand why they are allowed to legally follow her every move.

The Hunger Games beauty admits she has taken to staying indoors to avoid the snappers lying in wait outside her home, and she can only hope another young actress will rise to fame and draw away the photographers' attention.

She tells the September (13) issue of Vogue magazine, "If I were just your average 23 year old girl, and I called the police to say that there were strange men sleeping on my lawn and following me to Starbucks, they would leap into action. But because I am a famous person, 'Well, sorry, ma'am, there's nothing we can do.' It makes no sense.

"I am just not OK with it. It's as simple as that. I am just a normal girl and a human being, and I haven't been in this (position) long enough to feel like this is my new normal. I'm not going to find peace with it...

"It still makes me a little emotional, just to see how quickly everything kind of changes. So I've kind of been a big homebody lately. But I think eventually, one of these days, I guess when the next franchise starts and I'm not in it, and the new Jennifer Lawrence is born, then I'll be able to go outside."
