Celebrity Mom Elizabeth Banks is HOT right now.
Gracing the cover of Women’s Health this month, Elizabeth is currently starring in Man on a Ledge. Later this year she’ll play Effie Trinket in the much anticipated Hunger Games and also star in What to Expect When You’re Expecting. Here’s the scoop from the article and her behind the scenes interview with Women’s Health:
On playing Effie Trinket for The Hunger Games…
“Effie Trinket was a really fun role to get ready for because so much of it was about her hair and her clothes and the way she talks and walks. She is a very theatrical person. I watched a lot of Auntie Mame to prepare for playing Effie.”
On working on What to Expect When You’re Expecting…
“I had a great costar named Ben who had never done a kissing scene before so I had to guide him very sillily through our kissing moment. He had a hard time touching me and I literally had to take his hand and like put it in inappropriate places to get him used to the idea of touching me inappropriately.”
On the best advice she ever got…
“I get great advice from lots of people. I suppose the best advice I ever got, frankly the advice that changed my life, came from my uncle who told me to go to drama school and study acting instead of taking a job, because he said the job would always be there.”
On staying fit while traveling…
“My tips for staying fit on the road include, drinking tons of water, trying to get as much rest as you can, and yummy blankets, stay warm so you’ll sleep really well at night.”
On her favorite splurge…
“I don’t really diet, but I love to splurge on chocolate and cupcakes. I’m a huge cupcake fan, especially Magnolia Bakery. It gave me great joy when they opened inLos Angeles, where I live now.”
