EastEnders Lauren signs new contract- spoiler
http://www.dailystar.co.uk/posts/vie...ueline-Jossa-/
EASTENDERS DEAL JUST ACE FOR JACQUELINE JOSSA EASTENDERS star Jacqueline Jossa has just signed a new one-year contract – and said she’s happy to stay as long as soap bosses want her. The stunning actress, who plays *tearaway Lauren Branning, also lifted the lid on her romance with fellow *EastEnders star Tony Discipline. But she said she is more likely to move in with her sexy co-star Hetti Bywater – Lucy Beale in the drama – than the hunky actor. Bubbly Jacqueline, 19, said: “When *people ask me about marriage or even moving in with Tony I have to laugh. “It’s just so ridiculous. I am 19 years old and am enjoying myself. “Hetti and I are currently neighbours and I can definitely see myself living with her. I mean, imagine it – Lauren and Lucy *actually living together. “I’m having a great time. I’ve just signed a one-year contract and am happy to stay for as long as they’ll have me. “I get so excited when I open my scripts. So as long as that continues, then I’m happy. I really do love it.” The leggy brunette took over the role of troublesome, binge-drinking teen Lauren two years ago after bosses decided to re-cast the character. Since then she’s been involved in some of the BBC1 show’s grittiest storylines. *Lauren’s aunt Carol Jackson blamed her for cousin Billy’s death from alcohol poisoning, she taped love cheat sister-in-law Stacey confessing to Archie’s murder and helped mum Tanya battle cancer. But as she struggled to cope with her mum’s life-threatening illness she *continued to hit the bottle, dropped out of school and had a number of one-night stands. And with Lauren about to experience love for the first time after falling head over heels for her good-looking cousin Joey, she’s set to once again go off the rails – with explosive consequences. Jacqueline said: “Obviously I can’t relate to liking my cousin. But the thing that I’m holding on to is that they haven’t been brought up together as cousins. They’ve *really only just met. “So I kind of feel that it’s not that weird that they’re cousins – and it can be **justified. He’s good-looking as well. And as we all know, Lauren’s a bit of a weirdo. She loves it really, she’s like ‘this could really piss off my dad’. “It’s not her biggest motivation, though, as she really does fall for Joey.” Jacqueline said her character’s attitude to alcohol has had an impact on the way she drinks. And she revealed people are constantly trying to buy her drinks when she’s out. But she said she does not mind because she enjoys the fame that comes with working on one of the country’s biggest shows. She said: “Lauren’s drinking has affected me a little bit. “I get a lot of people come up to me and say, ‘Hey, let me buy you a drink’. And I’m like, ‘Oh no’. I guess it’s put me off a little bit but I still drink. “But I don’t like being smashed out of my face because I don’t want them to look at me in the same way that they look at Lauren. “She’s bad. I’m not as bad as her.” She added: “I don’t mind people coming up to me. To be honest, I actually like it. You wouldn’t do this job if you really hated it. I like talking to people. “I always get ‘You’re so like my *daughter’. And I always say, ‘No, really? Did she try and run over your husband?’ Awkward! |

Not really a fan of the character, but from those quotes the actress seems like a decent, grounded girl who knows she's onto a good thing, so good for her.

I think Jacqueline Jossa took a while to settle into the character of Lauren Branning, but this last year or so she has gone from strength to strength not only in the acting stakes but also the character has been written a lot better and has had some meaty stuff to get her teeth into.
I must say I'm really looking forward to see how Lauren is further developed and I'm sure Jacqueline will continue to shine. Lauren is one of my most favourite young characters on the show, she is just so funny but at the same time can really pull off the dramatic stuff. |

![]() But I agree with what I think your point is: it sometimes feels like a new character all together, same with Lucy and Ben. Hope I understood that the way you meant it

Sigh. And to think I had high hopes of Lorraine. I really rate Jacqueline as an actress. She comes across as a very natural actress, and she was brilliant during the cancer storyline, she has just been written poorly at times since then. I don't have high hopes for the Joey storyline, he is incredibly wooden and doesn't have any chemistry with any character he's interacted with thus far. |

Renewing the contract of arguably one of the better young actresses in the show is a hallmark of doing a poor job?

If it wasn't for the fact a lot of teens on here seem to want to get into her knickers I think she'd have been axed a long time ago. |

Jacqueline Jossa is an appalling actress, all she does is shout her lines, as someone else pointed out elsewhere, she does smell the fart acting a lot which she picked up from Joey Tribbiani.
