Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss in "The Hunger Games" movie!

See the full interview and more photos in the new print issue of Entertainment Weekly, out this week. We'll have a copy in the Teen Area and in the general Magazine & Newspaper Area as well. In the meantime, click here to read excerpts from the interview.

I loved reading this part: "In a free-wheeling interview, Lawrence describes her first encounter with [Director Gary] Ross last winter, during the height of Oscar season. “He was asking me what the experience was like,” she recalls, “and I just kind of opened up and said, ‘I feel like a rag doll. I have hair and makeup people coming to my house every day and putting me in new, uncomfortable, weird dresses and expensive shoes, and I just shut down and raise my arms up for them to get the dress on, and pout my lips when they need to put the lipstick on.’

And we both started laughing because that’s exactly what it’s like for Katniss in the Capitol. She was a girl who’s all of a sudden being introduced to fame. I know what that feels like to have all this flurry around you and feel like, ‘Oh, no, I don’t belong here.’”
