Sam Claflin is one of four different cover stars of Glamour UK's Women of the Year issue (July). Sam just happens to be Glamour's Man of the Year this year, and was honored at the Women of the Year Awards last night in London (see the photos and video from the awards here).
We've transcribed the article from GlamourUK for you below.
"There was huge pressure mounting over me initially." An understatement of the highest order, one might argue. For when Brit actor Sam Claflin beat a host of names, including Armie Hammer, to win the coveted part of Finnick Odair in the second installment of the Hunger Games movie franchise, the internet and his wife all had an opinion. And not prevalently positive ones...
"I couldn't help but come across comments on my casting. They were just everywhere," laughs the 27-year-old from Suffolk. "I started the process thinking I was going to have to have serious surgery to make everyone happy. With a young Brad Pitt's face, Zac Efron's abs, Dwayne Johnson's pecs, and Channing Tatum's left calf! But it's impossible to please everyone. I trusted the team that brought you Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss. They had their reasons for picking me and i worked my butt off to prove to any doubters that I was the man for the job."
That he certainly did, with glowing reviews and a global box office gross of $865 million and counting for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Which in part may be due to the world's infatuation with his co-star, Jennifer Lawrence. Sam himself is a huge fan.
"She's this young, talented klutz who has won an Oscar at such a young age and has the entire world loving her. But she deserves every bit of praise she's received. I can safely say that she genuinely hasn't and never will let any of it go to her head. She's an inspiration to me as much as everyone else and I've loved having the opportunity to work with her."
But the main woman in Sam's life is his wife of one year, actress Laura Haddock. "Getting married was easily one of the greatest achievements of the past 12 months. To have a wife with such wondrous, creative imagination, who planned every inch of it, made the day all the more special. Every five seconds I find myself falling harder and deeper in love with her."
Professionally, things couldn't be sweeter, either. Two huge movies due for release this autumn are set to cement Sam's leading man credentials - romantic comedy Love, Rosie opposite Lily Collins and The Riot Club alongside fellow Brit actors Douglas Booth and Max Irons.
And as for being anointed our newest Man of the Year, Sam remains uncharacteristically humble.
"It was a tad unexpected, to say the least, but i feel very honored. I'll continue to do what I'm doing so as not to let you down! I feel truly privileged to have my name along all the previous winners. Thank you very much."
Handsome, talented, charming, romantic and polite. Why are all the good ones taken?

Molly Wed, June 4, 2014 Jena Malone’s LA-Based Musical Duo Debut a Hallucinogenic Woodland Tryst on Nowness.com
The Shoe: His Gorgeousness on Nowness.com
“We shot in Upstate New York at the peak of tick season,” says director Aliya Naumoff of filming Jena Malone for the new video for her musical project, The Shoe. “Jena was covered in bites and scratches, but kept performing nonetheless.” The Hunger Games actress started the duo with multi-instrumentalist Lem Jay Ignacio following an extended period of impromptu performances after the pair met at a party in 2008. They recorded their first album I’m Okay in California, distilling the sunshine of the Golden state into a series of intimate and improvisational indie tracks, with Malone creating the structure by tap dancing its beat with her feet. “I think music and my film work feed each other," says the Nevada-born Malone. “Learning how to improvise built up strengths in me as as an actor.” Naumoff cast choreographer Celia Rowlson-Hall as Malone’s co-star, who envisioned the video’s nymph-like movements. “She is somewhat of a Zen master and I knew she would kill it with the dance,” says the filmmaker. Inspired by the work of this year’s Deutsche Börse Photography Prize winner Richard Mosse, The New York Times contributor worked with a colorist to recreate the effect by keying green tones in the same way that infrared film would pickup chlorophyll: “When I saw his use of color, specifically with his work in the Congo, I was incredibly moved by the feeling it created.”
What inspired the track?
Jena Malone: I was driving north on the 395 to my childhood home of Lake Tahoe; I was only two weeks into writing and recording the album and had all these melodies swirling in my head. The sun was setting on the mountains and it was just so beautiful. Gorgeousness all around me. And I just started singing the main melody into my little voice memo on my iPhone. It quickly turned into a song about falling in love, looking for love, being happy for the search. I was also in the process of falling in love again, so I had a lot of beautiful things in my heart.
Do you remember your earliest experience of music?
JM: My mom was a singer and she would sing to me all the time. I think that's how I learned. I used to wander through the forest and build forts and just be alone with my imagination for hours when I must have only been six or seven, singing to myself the whole time.
What musicians or acts have had a strong impact on your own musical style?
JM: Nina Simone, Neil Young , Tom Waits, Daniel Johnston, PJ Harvey, Reba McEntire, Dolly Parton.
What's next for you, both acting and music-wise?
JM: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay films will start coming out this year. I also got to work with my favorite filmmaker of all time, Paul Thomas Anderson, on Inherent Vice, which should be coming out this Christmas. And we are touring this July with the band.
I'm Okay is out now on Community Music/There Was An Old Woman Records.

Last night, the winners of the 2014 Rembrandt Awards were announced and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire took home the top honors for Best Foreign Film and Best Foreign Actress for Jennifer Lawrence's portrayal of Katniss Everdeen.
Jennifer Lawrence and the Catching Fire cast were actually informed of their win and given their awards on the red carpet of the Mockingjay party in Cannes. Take a look:
What are the Rembrandt Awards, you may be asking yourself? The annual Rembrandt Awards are the national public film awards of The Netherlands, first given out in 1993. The nominations are selected by members of the Film Committee and Jury of the Rembrandt Awards Foundation. The winners are selected by the Dutch public through online voting. Way to vote, Dutch tributes!

Congratulations to Sam Claflin, Man of the Year at the GLAMOUR Awards 2014!
Sam walked the red carpet with his wife Laura Haddock, and talked about about the duo’s red carpet process.
“It’s a lot of shouting at one another ‘get me a cup of tea’; it’s not actually very stressful!” he shared.
Sam continued, “A guy and a girl, it’s a very different process. It’s easy for me to choose a suit but when she walks down the stairs, it’s like ‘wow’.” Cue the awws!
His Mockingjay and The Riot Club co-star Natalie Dormer was on hand to present him the award tonight.See it at the 3:21 mark in the video below.
Natalie talks a little about the Thai people adopting the Hunger Games salute as their symbol of revolution in the video below at about 1:24. Then Sam talks about Katniss Everdeen and Jennifer Lawrence at 1:39. If you're a Game of Thrones fan (guilty), you can see Sophie Turner adorably fangirl over her co-star, Natalie Dormer right after.
More video from the red carpet. Natalie and Sam talk about how nice it is to see each other dressed up instead of "running around with you in dirt and sewage and black stuff on our faces."
