In honor of Gossip Girl author Cecily von Ziegesar’s series It Girl, each week we celebrate the women who are making headlines. This week, we look at the Hunger Games ladies who the world will be watching when the movie opens on Friday March 23, 2012! Check them out below:
- Jennifer Lawrence – She plays Katniss, the girl on fire — and boy, is she ever! Jennifer was on the cover of Glamour and Seventeen this month and has been featured in numerous other publications. We also love all of the amazing body image messages she’s been sending by saying she’s never starved herself to lose weight. “I do exercise, but I don’t diet,” she said.
- Elizabeth Banks – She plays Effie Trinket, and you might recognize her from some of her past roles on 30 Rock, Spider-Man, Role Models, and Definitely, Maybe. Was it hard for Elizabeth to channel her inner biatch? Not exactly. “So easy,” she said. “I love being mean.”
- Isabelle Fuhrman – The 15-year-old plays Clove in The Hunger Games, but you might recognize her from the super-creepy scary movie Orphan. A fun fact about Isabelle is that she ended up submitting a one-and-a-half page back-story for her character. “When you read the book, it’s written through Katniss’ eyes and you really get to know who Katniss is, and you understand certain characters and parts of them, but I wanted to develop and figure out Clove’s psyche and where she came from.”
This week’s “It Girls” receive the “Unforgettable” because we’re pretty sure no one will forget how excited they were for this movie! Check out more info on The It Girl book Unforgettable here!
