1.) She constantly gives fans Gif-able moments.
Lawrence, meet the Internet. It’s a cruel world out there, but the one thing that can bring anonymous readers together is memes and Gifs. And Lawrence, with her overly-expressive face and great reaction shots, always, always delivers.
GET MORE EW: Subscribe to the magazine for only 33¢ an issue!Evidence: That time Jack Nicholson surprised her mid-interview and she completely freaked out.
2.) She’s a press darling.
We see more of our stars than ever, with YouTube allowing us to replay quick television interviews from Berlin or paparazzi cameras capturing a down moment. But Lawrence consistently nailed it not only during never-ending franchise promotion for Hunger Games but also throughout awards season. Result? Her likability factor goes through the roof.
Evidence: This after-the-Oscars Q&A, where she casually cops to taking a shot prior to talking.
3.) She’s relatable.
Entirely fair or not, our favorite Hollywood stars are women we can imagine being the girl next door (see also: The enduring appeal of Jennifer Aniston). Whether she’s embarrassing herself while stalking John Stamos or falling up the stairs at the Oscars, she always allows fans to think, “If we ever met, we’d totally be best friends.” Those moments then get constantly reblogged on Tumblr and other sites, allowing the world to collectively fangirl together.
Evidence: Just check out her joke-y trash talk about Emma Stone on the red carpet.
4.) She’s hyper aware she’s an actress in the public eye.
It can be tough being a Hollywood ingénue. Care too much, and it’s all Hathaway Hate. Care too little, and people roll their eyes as you shuffle down another carpet (*cough* Kristen Stewart). Lawrence has managed to strike a balance where she appears grateful for the support and opportunities, but also aware that some parts of her job are rather silly. Especially in 2013′s media landscape, where everyone is all-too-ready to write a hasty opinion, this mindset is more important than ever.
Evidence: She told EW a few months ago, “I’m so aware of all the b.s. that surrounds Hollywood, and how everyone gets on this high horse and thinks that they’re curing cancer and it makes me so uncomfortable every time I see it. So I go in the exact opposite direction and end up saying something like ‘I’m pregnant!’ when I’m in two franchises.”

They include the custom-tailored skin-tight white pants Lawrence wore during the film’s climactic ballroom dance scene with co-star Bradley Cooper.

Read the rest of the list here.Katniss and Peeta, The Hunger Games trilogy
First Encounter: It began with a loaf of bread and an act of kindness…. Though Peeta, a baker’s son, made his first lasting impression on Katniss when he threw her a loaf of burnt bread that allowed her hungry family to eat, the two don’t really get to know each other until they are sent to compete in the nationally televised fight-or-die reality show/sacrifice ritual, The Hunger Games. Defining Moment: With Peeta injured, ill, and on the verge of death, Katniss kisses Peeta knowing cameras will capture their courtship and sponsors will send them food and medical supplies. It’s her version of returning the favor. Relationship Challenges: Because of her hard-scrabble background Katniss almost unwaveringly looks out for herself, so there’s little room for anyone else in her heart or mind — though a certain rugged hunting partner named Gale does confuse her feelings. Later in the series, a drastic shift in Peeta’s personality (after he’s tortured with tracker jacker venom) complicates the showmancers’ yin-ang-yang dynamic further. Why They Work: Peeta is a fundamentally good-hearted, smooth-talking person with sensitivity that balances out Katniss’s edge, self-consciousness, and lack of social propriety. He truly loves her, which she needs and appreciates — even if it takes her a little while to realize it.

Lionsgate has exercised its option for Danny Strong, who wrote the Emmy-winning HBO movie Game Change, to pen the script for the second part of the company’s adaptation of Mockingjay, the finale of the Hunger Games movie series. Strong already had written the script for Mockingjay, Part 1 and had a deal to write the script for the second part. But it was always contingent on the studio liking and approving his draft for Part 1.Source: THR

Summary:Remember you can always listen to old episodes on Itunes.
In this Valentine's Day episode we feature one of our favorite special segments, Hunger Games Dating Game, where we portray anonymous HG characters on a dating game show. We cover Catching Fire news as well as a few awards won in the fandom. During our discussion of Catching Fire Chapter 15, we are introduced to many new victors including Finnick. We analyze Katniss and Finnick's relationship. We question why Chaff didn't accept a prosthetic arm. Would Darius and Katniss had a romance if she hadn't been a tribute? Would Katniss and Peeta have ended up like all the other victors as a celebrity if only one of them had made it out of the arena alive? We feature a fanfiction that takes place on Katniss and Peeta's first date. To end the show we relate a romantic song to Finnick and Annie's relationship.

TV: Do you like your blonde hair?Source: Teen Vogue via. mockingjay.net
SC: It’s definitely taking some getting used to. I have a tan and a six-pack now after four months of hard work. I feel slowly but surely like I am Finnick Odair.
TV: Your training sounds intense!
SC: From the moment I set foot in Atlanta, they had me at the gym, working out twice a day. And then stunt training, it’s nonstop. To be fair, I spend a lot of the film carrying an old lady on my back, as Finnick carries Mags for the majority of the arena scenes. I feel like every day of filming is a workout, running around Hawaii with little old Lynn Cohen on my back. As for my diet, I think I’ve eaten more chickens than there are in the world. [Laughs] I would eat chicken and asparagus for lunch and dinner, and for breakfast I’d have an omelet and oatmeal. And I had that every day for four months. I’ve talked to my friends and said, “Oh my God, I’m so depressed, I just want a burger.” And they’re like, “You don’t know how lucky you are to be doing what you are doing.”

Question: What has this year been like for you?
JENNIFER LAWRENCE: Well, it’s good and bad, just like any job. There’s an amazing side of it that feels incredible, and then there’s the side that’s the bad side and you just have to move on. But, it’s been amazing. A lot of things that I didn’t even think could ever be possible for me have happened, all in a year. It’s been really overwhelming, but in a wonderful way

Though he joked that her recent run of success may mean she’s now rethinking their relationship: “It got to a point where I was texting her every day saying: "Congratulations, congratulations again for something else, congratulations on your nomination, congratulations on winning" and I think she must be bored of my English voice by now!"
About the forthcoming film he revealed: “I'm hugely excited to see it, but nervous to be honest. We worked so hard and had so much fun.”
And it seems the hard graft wasn’t just reserved to Sam’s on-set experience – his diet for the active role also proved a struggle: “People think I exaggerate when I say I literally ate chicken and asparagus every day, twice a day for three/four months.”

Source: Daily Mail via. mockingjay.netThe actress has been recovering from a nasty flu bug, which was not helped by recent filming on the second Hunger Games movie, Catching Fire. She was shooting outside, in freezing weather, in only a T-shirt.
‘That probably wasn’t the best for my sickness,’ she said, wryly.
Luckily, the remaining nine days of filming, in her role as Katniss Everdeen, will take place on location in Hawaii.
