PEOPLE

JENNIFER LAWRENCE

Hunger games star Jennifer Lawrence is everywhere this month. I love English has some ideas on how to succeed like Jennifer...


Most actresses, if offered a role in The Hunger Games, would say ''Yes!'' without hesitation. Not Jennifer Lawrence. She was worried that begin famous would change her. She thought about the offer for three days, before accepting. Like Katniss in the films, Jennifer became a superstar overnight. But happily, she hasn't changed at all!

To preparate for her role in The Hunger Games, Jennifer worked very hard. She trained in archery four times a week, learnt tree and rock climbing, and had fitness and combat coaching. ''If I look exhausted in the movie, that's definitely real,'' she says smiling. 


Jennifer likes to surprise her fans. She plays very diferent roles from one film to the next. She experiments with new styles. Her hair colour changes from blonde to brown, and she can wear everything from elegant dresses to jeans and simple t-shirts. 


Jennifer admits that she's not perfect. She's naturally clumsy, and fell on the steps when she collected her first Oscar in front of Hollywood's mos impornant stars. But she reacted to his embarrassing situation with humour. ''You guys are just standing up because you feel bad that I fell'', she said when the audience stood up in her honour. 



Most acrtesses don't dream of carrying a shotgun. but Jennifer is fearless: that's exactly what she did in the film Winter's Bone. Millions of fans identified with her challenging, teenage role. It was also preparation for playing Katniss. 



MUSIC



BIRDY

English singer Birdy had her first hit with the album Birdy when she was 14 years old. Now, aged 17, she's back with a new single, ''Wings'', and an album, Fire Withim. Birdy is not a typical popstar: she studied classical piano when she was a child, and today her musical style is captivating and mature. Her fragile voice is a refreshing change. 











JESSIE J

Like Birdy, single Jessie J is English and became an international star with her first album. But that's where the comparsion ends! Jessie J studied music at the famous school in London for the performing arts, the Brit school. She mixes soul vocals with R&B, electropop and hip-hop. Her new album for catchy pop music, Alive, is sure to be another hit.
