Jennifer Lawrence Covers Glamour Magazine

Jennifer Lawrence graces the April cover of Glamour Magazine. 

Inside the issue, the starlet talks about her role in the highly anticipated film The Hunger Games, discusses her workout and diet regimen, and comments on how she’s adjusted to becoming famous.

Check out what Jennifer shared with Glamour, below!

Her first thoughts about The Hunger Games being turned into a movie…

“When I heard they were making the movie, I was like, ‘oh, that’s nice –they’re going to ruin another great book.’ But then I met Gary [Ross, the director], and he was unbelievable and brilliant and genius.”

On taking on the role of Katniss in The Hunger Games

“I gave myself three days. I knew from reading the books that I loved The Hunger Games. I just didn’t know if it was worth changing my life for. I’m at a peaceful place right now. The people who used to ignore me at parties, now they’re nice to me and kissing my ass. But nobody’s staked outside my house. I wanted to make sure that when I said yes, I wouldn’t regret it. And I don’t regret it. I would have said no because I was scared, and then I would have been that bitter actress telling my grandkids, ‘I’m the one that turned it down.’”

On getting in shape and dieting…

“I hate saying,  ‘I like exercising.’ I want to punch people who say that in the face. But it’s nice being in shape for a movie, because they basically do it all for you. It’s like, ‘Here’s your trainer. This is what you can eat.’ I don’t diet. I do exercise! But I don’t diet. You can’t work when you’re hungry, you know?”

On adjusting to her life as a famous actress…

“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.”

Her take on life in the public eye…

“In some ways, it’s a hard life, but it’s a great professional life. I’m doing what I love, and then I get months and months of rest. I have a lot of money for a 21-year-old. I can’t stand it when actors complain.”

Jennifer Garner And Ben Affleck Welcome Baby Boy!

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck welcomed a baby boy in Santa Monica, California, a source confirms.

Their new little bundle of joy joins big sisters Violet, 6, and Seraphina, 3.

During an appearance on Jay Leno back in January, the actress admitted she and Ben knew the sex of their baby, but weren’t going to share it.

She told the talk show host:

“I would have thought [he wanted a boy]. At first…I really thought so. And then [Ben] kind of said, ‘Well, we have girls. We know how to do girls. My girls love me. I’m the big guy in the house.’ So, now I’m not sure.”

Congratulations to the happy family!

Megan Fox Covers Cosmopolitan Magazine

Actress Megan Fox graces the April cover of Cosmopolitan, and inside the mag, she talks about life, love and tattoos.

Check out some quotes from her interview, below!

On her tough-girl image:

“It’s because I have tattoos and I say curse words, and apparently, that’s crazy. I think maybe I give off this energy of seeming like I don’t give a f*ck, and that’s misinterpreted. But I’m not wild.” 

On first meeting now-husband Brian Austin Green:

“I didn’t know who he was, since I was too young for Beverly Hills 90210. But the first time I saw him, I got butterflies. And the first time he casually touched me? There was so much electricity. We’ve had obstacles, and we’ve overcome them. I truly feel like he’s my soul mate. I don’t want to sound corny or cliché, but I do believe we are destined to live this part of our lives together.” 

This issue of Cosmo hits newsstands Tuesday, March 6th.
