Nicki Novak here for Young Hollywood at the Los Angeles premiere of Catching Fire. Let the games begin.

Performances in this movie are incredible. I know the director said the word intimidating when you came in the room that all the other girls played her kind of bitchy and you just had that force. Give me your Give me the secret.

I don't know. I woke up I guess on the wrong side of bed that day.

So so so pretty. How many dresses did you try?

Um there were two options and I just chose this one at the last second. The other one was warmer. It we're getting it. sweater and a skirt. But this one's very catching fire. That's what we said. That's why we chose it.

With Patrick St. Esprit. I've seen the movie. I heard you haven't seen the movie.

I haven't seen it.

How is it that you're in the movie and I'm not and I've seen it and you haven't?

I don't know. You should have called me.

We are here with the Giannas Games. Are you going to guys gonna get Young Hollywood tomorrow?

Yes, we are.

Are you guys gonna stay All hanging out tomorrow. And tonight. Are you guys gonna stay up all night and just come straight to the studio?

Can we sleep there?

Do you remember being in the Young Hollywood studio?

Yes.

The best time you ever had. Awesome. The spirit of the movie. Catching Fire. What would be your catchphrase?

What would be my catchphrase? Be a bad or to be with a bad. Feel the heat. Girl of fire. This is our motto. Dogs are going to bark.

There's a debate between the cast. Jennifer says she's the funnier one. Josh says he's the funnier one. Who's really funnier?

As an outsider, the two of them together is just the best. But I would probably say Jennifer. She is. She's downright hilarious. Just She's really funny. Josh is pretty funny. They are he is really

No, I was going to say I've been telling people these guys are like they're so talented as actors, but they're like he's like funny goofballs on the set. I don't know how she does it. Like she just kind of She goes from haha to Sorry. She's clumsy as everybody says.

Absolutely. I've never worked with a clumsier actress in my life.

So how big a fan of the series are you?

Well, I love Jennifer Lawrence. I'm obsessed with Jennifer Lawrence. Do you know her? Have you met her? Do you

No. No, I haven't, but I bet she's a major homie. She's cool. She's funny. She's real. She's not fake. She just answers honestly and I just I love that. I mean, she carries popcorn in her pocket.

Are you having fun?

It's it's very fun. It's very crazy.

You had the most power over Donald Sutherland's character. How did you sort of tap into that power?

I think probably because I was his family member and I don't I don't think that he has other family members and I'm probably the closest one to him.

Subway has made it possible for a lot of fans around the country to see the movie tonight. What do you want to say to all your fans out?

Probably have fun. Um try to get the most autographs as the others. It is a competition. It is. They're like, hey.

So your arms are just going to get sore signing for that.

It already was. I was like shaking. I need one signed up too.

Talk to me about eating fresh, getting ready for such a demanding film and the role. Everybody got in such great shape.

Yeah, everybody did. Everybody brought their their A game to this film. You know, we would go we'd have rotate in with the stunt team and and we'd see other other tributes working out and and they were bringing it and it would only inspire you to bring your best. So it was everybody was on on their on their A game.

Yeah, I mean, it's weird actually. The physical part I didn't find that hard. I mean, I had worked on Sucker Punch before and kind of figured out what my pain threshold was and it was actually more the emotional part of just having to carry anger and violence in my body. In such a way that was kind of unpredictable. It was actually really exhausting.

Talk to me about the diet, like eating fresh.

I mean, I I always eat healthy. I didn't change my diet for the movie. I just, you know, make sure I don't eat overly processed foods, not too many sugars, white flour, stuff like that.

And having Liam Hemsworth tackle you, I think that most girls would love to have happen. What does it feel like to be tackled?

Oh, if they would. Um the way he hit me and the way I went into the ground is illegal in the NFL.

How big a fans are you guys of Catching Fire and The Hunger Game?

We are new fans. Our kids are fans. We are new fans. We came out we came to check it out, you know, first hand this evening. So we can take the review back to the house. Uh yeah, the first one was actually sick. Big fan of it. And I was actually really excited to find out we're coming to the

I must say it took me nine hours to watch the first one cuz I was in the middle of a photo shoot. I kept coming back and watching it. And so it's not like fresh in my mind. I seriously, I don't know what happened. 10 hours to watch a movie.

Did you get to be a part of these epic parties that Lenny or Jennifer has?

They were fun. They were a lot of fun and deservingly so.

What did what did you guys do? Did you do karaoke or what did you do?

Love to dance. This was a dancing group.

All right, let's let's see it.

Yeah, right? So he had some moves.

guys in the movie. So who who who is the guy that you would choose?

Um it's hard. I think Josh because he's really cute.

There's two scenarios in the movie. Somebody is naked in a glass elevator and somebody has to fight evil monkeys in the jungle. What would you rather do?

Well, what I asked Naked in a glass elevator. Yeah, that's an easy one.

Fighting evil monkeys cuz it's something different. We've been in a lot of things naked. An elevator is one of them.

I guess naked in the glass elevator. Please

That's great. Well, I wouldn't be able to fight crazy monkeys. Okay, I went to South Africa. Those monkeys aren't even crazy there. But they come in your room. They literally will come in your room and rip up everything and they'll eat all the sugar and if you have Red Bull, they will take it. They're they're just evil there. So I can't even imagine actual evil monkeys.

I don't know, probably the monkeys. I reckon I'd like them taping a few and like turning them up maybe.

Probably naked in the glass elevator. Rather do that. I think so. I think so. I mean, I love monkeys, but evil monkeys not my thing.

Fighting monkeys. Yeah, let's take the monkeys. I grew up on Wizard of Oz, so maybe

You could do it. Yeah, yeah, I'll take the monkeys. Never kill a monkey.

So you want to be naked?

Yes. Naked in an elevator. Easy.

The girl that didn't. Yeah, you're done. Are you back there? Who are you staring at? Who are you staring at? Peter. Tracy's interviewing you guys tomorrow. She's going to jump in and do a selfie with all you guys. You just need to do a selfie. I'm going to try and get everyone.
