First, did you read the hunger games before you got the part? And second how long did it take to put on Effie's makeup? P.s you were the perfect actress for Effie! -
Could you please do another giveaway of a signed Effie poster? I missed the first one because I just became a member of this website yesterday after watching you in the Hunger Games. -

Hey hey!
What is your favourite part of the book in The Hunger Games and is there any chance that you (or any of the cast) will be coming out here to Australia for any promo work?
We'd LOVE to have you! :) -

Effie must have been such a fun part to play! What was your fave part of playing her and your fave line? THAT IS MAHOGANY! (I laugh everytime) -

Is Effie's accent hard to adapt to? Was that how you imagined it when you read the book?I like to watch the trailer just to hear you talk with it! I love it, its so unique and fun! Can you say " Welcome, welcome! The time has come to select one courageous young man and woman for the honor of representing District 12 in the 74th annual HungerGames!" ?(: -
Now.. specifically about The Hunger Games: do you think the emotional complexity between characters in the book has been achieved in the movie? -
In an interview, you said that The Hunger Games books are easy to read but hard to summarize because there's a lot going on like in Game of Thrones... As a fan of both series I have to ask: would you accept a role in Game of Thrones? Who would you like to be? -

WHAT HAPPENED TO PEETA'S LEG!!!!!????? IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE GONE! :(
AND WHAT IS ONE QUIRKY THING ABOUT YOU THAT NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT?! -
I know you read the books and wanted to be in the movie. Did you see a script before getting cast? And did you like the consolidation/changes that were made from book to movie?
I saw the movie Friday and kept expecting major scenes from the book, so I don't think I enjoyed it enough. I thought that those that hadn't read the book would not get enough of the main points, but I saw it again Monday - making sure to keep the book out of my head - and I LOVED IT! -

"If it's legal I need you to say as Effie "Up, up up, it's going to be a big, big, big day"! The biggest disappointment was not having that line in the film. Can you say future alarm clock?"
I agree with Natalie!! I was really disappointed this wasn't in the movie, and I was looking forward to setting it as my alarm clock (in a totally non-creepy way). Also, if it is legal, would you be able to say the whole, "If you put enough pressure to coal, it turns into a pearl," ordeal? Thank you!!! Seriously, I am in love with that quote and need it on a shirt. Oh, Effie <3 -
You and Woody played the perfect Effie and Haymitch - the vibe between the two characters was spot on and great. Why do you think Effie has a crush on him? -
What is your favourite Effie line? Which costume did you like the most? Did you get to keep any of her gorgeous shoes? -
There were some pretty crazy pranks played on set... We're you involved in any of them? What's the funniest or craziest thing that happened to you on set? -
-
Do you think that Haymitch and Effie (Hayffie) will actually get together in the movies? (We would love it if they did!)
