We were shocked to learn Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Martin "consciously coupled" last week, and a new report suggests Martin was drawn to the star because she is the "polar opposite" of ex Gwyneth Paltrow. Are you surprised?

"Jennifer is loads of fun and they can't stop laughing when they are together," an insider revealed to The Sun. "Chris feels he is dating someone who has everything he's been missing out on in the past 11 years."

Martin gushed Lawrence gave him "a new lease of life."

"Jennifer doesn't take herself too seriously and when she is not filming she just wants to hang out and have a good time," the source explained.

The two met in July at the after party for Coldplay's Royal Albert Hall show in London. They enjoyed deep conversation and developed a texting relationship before Martin spoiled the actress on her birthday.

Lawrence had an on/off relationship with Hoult for three years, and he was spotted out with Kristen Stewart shortly after the split. The breakup was announced in June.

"They spent a lot of time apart because of work, and it was difficult on their relationship," a source told E! News.

Paltrow is said to have moved on with Brad Falchuk, executive producer and co-creator of Fox's "Glee."

Martin and the "Iron Man" beauty announced their "conscious uncoupling" earlier this year on Paltrow's GOOP lifestyle site. They have two children together, Apple and Moses.

We told you last week Coldplay's song "Atlas" was on "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" soundtrack.

"They were talking the whole time and being really flirty," a witness told Heatworld.com. "There was a whole party of people wanting Chris' attention, but his eyes were only on her."

"He seemed really into her," the insider continued. "How could you not fancy Jennifer Lawrence?"
