Oscar nominee Jennifer Lawrence has steamed up the pages of GQ with her sizzling photo shoot. Featured in the May issue of the men's magazine, the "Winter's Bone" beauty shows off her fine physique as she strips down to bikini. One of the photos captures her lying on a leather couch in a white two-piece by Chloe, while another displays her in a sexy pink two-piece.

While it is easy to see her beauty, "X-Men: First Class" director Matthew Vaughn insists she is more than just a pretty face. "There are a lot of young American actors right now who haven't got any technique," he tells the mag. "And to be blunt, a lot of these kids assume that just by having a good set of teeth and tits, smiling for the camera's gonna be enough. I needed someone who could act."

Jennifer received her Academy Award nomination for her role as Ree Dolly in "Winter's Bone". She lost the title to Natalie Portman. She will next be seen in Jodie Foster-directed dark comedy "The Beaver", before appearing as Mystique in "X-Men: First Class". The 20-year-old has also landed the coveted role of Katniss Everdeen in "The Hunger Games".
