The Hunger Games and Katy Were Win Big At the 2013 People’s Choice Awards!

The undisputed winner of last night’s People’s Choice Awards was certainly the Hunger Games franchise, taking in awards for choice movie, action movie, and movie franchise!

Hunger Games star Jennifer Lawrence won best movie actress, the face of heroism for her role in the film, and was voted to have the best on-screen chemistry with co-stars Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth!

Katy Perry also won big, taking home awards for best female artist, pop artist, and music video for her hit song “Part Of Me.”

One Direction‘s single “What Makes You Beautiful” won best song, and “Up All Night” was voted best album!

Also among the winners was Taylor Swift, voted best country artist.  I think America chose right!

Hugs & Kisses,

Sissy

Josh Hutcherson Hits the Gym for Catching Fire!

Fans are gearing up for Josh Hutcherson‘s return in the Hunger Games sequel, Catching Fire, but no one’s as excited as Josh himself!

He’s gotten so into the role that he’s completely changed his eating habits and fitness regime. He’s switched to a protein-rich diet and packed on 15 pounds of muscle, and he’s also been training with a NAVY seal alongside costar Liam Hemsworth!

“After the games, Peeta would have been taking care of himself physically,” Josh told USA today. “And he’s gone back to the village and is able to eat healthy. So I’ve been training and getting ready for that.”

Josh Hutcherson as Spider-Man?

Before Hunger Games star Josh Hutcherson became famous onscreen as Peeta Mellark, he auditioned for the role of Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man!

The role eventually went to Andrew Garfield, but we think he did a fabulous job as Spidey. What do you think?
