I unabashedly love Jennifer Lawrence and think she can pretty much do no wrong, and she is pretty much the only reason (sorry!) I saw “The Hunger Games.” But what in holy hell is going on with this Elle magazine cover? Jennifer looks like she’s ready to kill somebody. Also? Those bangs. So is she thinking:

  1. “I suffered through “The Hunger Games” for this?”
  2. “Where is Tawny Kitaen?”
  3. “Serving ’80s rock video realness.”
  4. “How much longer before I can put my sweatpants back on?”
  5. “Who frosted my tips?”

What’s your guess? [Elle]

“The Hunger Games” Jennifer Lawrence seems rather sweet and awesome — and apparently she’s also a pretty good shot. She was asked to go head-to-head against the host of a Spanish television show in archery and fared pretty well for herself. I guess playing Katniss Everdeen really rubbed off on her. [YouTube]

Participating in the Hipster Hunger Games might be no big deal if you’ve, like, already been a raw vegan or whatever. But for the rest of us who are off in our overly expensive apartments downing PBRs and listening to that really cool band you haven’t heard of yet, it’s going to be kind of tough out there. So you’d better watch this video from “District Silverlake” and prepare for the inevitable. “The Hipster Hunger Games: May the trends be ever in your favor.” [YouTube]

Take note: just in case you are planning to see “The Hunger Games” this weekend — I think most people are, right? — legendary sex advice columnist Dr. Ruth (yes, she’s still alive and kicking!) took to Twitter to issue a warning! She says that the flick’s violent nature makes it a bit of a boner killer. The good doctor recommends that you and your date bone before the movie. We thank her for the advice.

Well, this is highly suspicious. “The Hunger Games” has licensed some of its apparel rights to Toys “R” Us, which is now selling “Hunger Games” training tees. Now you can dress your kids like a “Hunger Games” tribute, which is to say, a child who is fighting other children to the death for the honor of their district. That sounds awfully … creepy. But anyway! Wouldn’t little Jaden and Jennifer look adorable dressed as skilled killers? Thought so! [Toy "R" Us]

The Frisky's favorite books this week! 5 Photos »

“Just recently I started letting myself eat things from the minibar. When we were kids, we would never open the minibar. A $6 Snickers bar? But the other day I was in a hotel and I was staring at a Snickers bar, and I finally just ate it. Then it was like something in me snapped. I opened all these drinks. I thought: I can do it now. Now I’m all grown-up. I can eat things from the minibar.”

—Jennifer Lawrence, star of the eagerly anticipated “Hunger Games“ movie, tells Glamour magazine how her life has changed as a famous actress. As I mentioned here, I read the first Hunger Games book on my flight from Portland to New York and loved it. For the flight back home I bought the second book, Catching Fire, as well as this issue of Glamour, and by the time we landed I had transformed into a complete and total fangirl. Can’t wait to see Jennifer bring Katniss Everdeen to life on March 23rd! [Glamour]

Jennifer Lawrence Records Song For “The Hunger Games”

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 18, 2011 //

Surprise! Jennifer Lawrence is not only stunning and an amazing actress who got an Oscar nomination right out of the gate; the girl apparently has pipes, too. Like Robert Pattinston did for the “Twilight” soundtrack, Jennifer has recorded a song for her movie, “The Hunger Games.” The song is called “Rue’s Lullaby” and she worked with Danny Elfman and producer T-Bone Burnett, the guy behind “Crazy Heart,” on it. And T-Bone says she rocked. “It was beautiful,” he said. “She did great. She’s singing great.” Might we see a musical in her future? Or perhaps she and Rob can start a superband?

Is “Hunger Games” The Next “Twilight”?

Kelli BenderSeptember 17, 2010 //

Though The Hunger Games has nowhere near the level of pop culture saturation as Twilight, the young adult trilogy is quickly gaining the same rabid fan base. But the similarities between the two fiction phenomenons end about there. The Hunger Games books present a world much darker than Stephenie Meyers’ land of glittery vampires and sullen girls. The story revolves around a post-apocalyptic society controlled by a greedy government working from a place called the Capitol. Keep reading »
