Shailene Woodley on Letterman

I am personally not a fan of Letterman's style of interviews typically, especially with young actors, but Shailene was awesome.

Watch the video below as she talks about acting, childhood, her shoes, eating clay and making her own toothpaste.

Some fave quotes from #TFIOS

I am obsessed, can NOT wait for TFIOS movie to come out. Ever since I read the book I have been obsessed and forcing all my friends to read the book.

Page to Premiere put together some FAVE QUOTES in preparation for the film and I wanted to share it with you:

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

1. You Could Be An Ax Murderer

“You should see it,” he said. “V for Vendetta, I mean.”
“Okay,” I said. “I’ll look it up.”
“No. With me. At my house,” he said. “Now.”
I stopped walking. “I hardly know you, Augustus Waters. You could be an ax murderer.”
He nodded. “True enough, Hazel Grace.”

2. It’s A Metaphor

“Oh, my God. Let me just assure you that not being able to breathe? SUCKS…”
“They don’t kill you unless you light them,” he said as Mom arrived at the curb. “And I’ve never lit one. It’s a metaphor, see: You put the killing thing right between your teeth, but you don’t give it the power to do its killing.”
“It’s a metaphor,” he said.

3. I Fell In Love

As he read, I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.

4. I’m In Love With You

“I’m in love with you,” he said quietly.
“Augustus,” I said.
“I am,” he said…”I’m in love with you, and I’m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I’m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we’re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have, and I am in love with you.”

5. It Demands To Be Felt

“That’s the thing about pain,” Augustus said, and then glanced back at me. “It demands to be felt.”

6. Our Little Infinity

“I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn’t trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I’m grateful.”

7. My Thoughts Are Stars

But I can’t pull my thoughts together, Van Houten. My thoughts are stars I can’t fathom into constellations.

8. I Like My Choices.

You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world, old man, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices. I hope she likes her.
I do, Augustus.
I do.

Need a tissue? I know I do!

#TFIOS The Fault in our Stars Still from @AnselElgort

This book changed me. If you haven't read it, you must... John Green wrote an incredibly emotional, real, touching novel. I can't wait for the movie.

Photos from #DivergentOrlando @AnselElgort & @VeronicaRoth at #DiverentTour

 Cindy & Mindy worked the carpet for mandysmind.com in Orlando and got some great shots of Ansel and Veronica on the carpet. You can also see our interview with Veronica here.

They had some technical problems with their interview with Ansel Elgort, so we are hoping to get those sorted and post that interview soon - fingers crossed.... 

MINDY says: Although I can't say specifics about the movie at this time I can say that Divergent is an amazing film! It kept me in my chair the whole time, the acting was flawless and the cinematography was impeccable! I will definitely be paying to see it a second time with the family! Thanks to Summit Entertainment LLC for having us out!

February 2014 Empire Magazine - #MOMMAWANTS

So if ever there was an issue of Empire Magazine that I wanted, this would be it... Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 Sam Claflin and Jena Malone AS WELL AS Divergent/TFIOS lead, Shailene Woodley!

#TFIOS Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort Reunited

I love this photo and tweet. I also love that Shailene chopped and donated her hair for this role.

 

See my post about #hairforhazel here - including pics of my daughters hair chops

 

#hairforhazel Shailene chops her hair for #TFIOS

Shailene Woodley's shorter hair: Via twitter

Divergent star, Shailene Woodley, chopped her locks for an upcoming role in 'The Fault in our Stars'.

This is something near and dear to my heart. My daughter, who is currently ten years old. Has chopped and donated her hair twice already.

It started when she came with me one day to donate blood. She asked a lot of questions about why I did it and saw drawings on thank-you cards from sick kids and asked if she could help. I explained she was too young to donate blood, but that she could when she was older if she wanted.

A few months later, she asked about donating her hair. I don't know where she learned of this opportunity, but she wante

d to do it and so we went to the hair salon and chopped her hair. It grew pretty quickly and two years later, she donated it again, cutting it even shorter to ensure there was enough length to donate.

As a mother, I couldn't be more proud of her and I am excited at the publicity currently surrounding #hairforhazel

My daughter in 2010 and 2012 when she chopped her hair to donate. It's already grown to shoulder length again now.
