Patina Miller in costume for Sister Act. NOW we can see Paylor!Commander Paylor is from District 8, and Katniss first meets her when they go to the hospital in D8 to film an Airtime Assault propo. Spoiler ALERT: She eventually becomes President of Panem.

From Mockingjay:

She looks young to be a commander. Early thirties. But there's an authoritative tone to her voice that makes you feel her appointment wasn't arbitrary.

Jennifer Lawrence #2 on People's Best Dressed List

People Magazine just announced their Top 10 Best Dressed celebs of 2013 and, no surprise to those of us who've watched her many hits on red carpets this year, Jennifer Lawrence came in at #2.

 Not quite sure the look on the left is one of Jen's BEST, People Magazine!

Nominated By: Holli Rogers, fashion director for Net-a-Porter (Hmmm, Trish Summerville for Capitol Couture Collection premieres at Net-A-Porter this fall. Coincidence?)

Why She Chose Her: "[Lawrence] has such a refreshing fearlessness with her style. She chooses pieces with great embellishments and detail, but she knows just when to show restraint so the details don't go overboard."

People's Best & Worst Dressed Issue hits newsstands on Friday, Sept 20th.

OFFICIAL: Lily Rabe is Commander Lyme in 'Mockingjay 1 & 2'

It's official! Lily Rabe has been cast as Commander Lyme in Mockingjay Parts 1 & 2. Probably best known for her roles in seasons 1 and 2 of American Horror Story, Rabe is also the daughter of the late actress Jill Clayburgh and Tony Award-winning playwright and screenwriter David Rabe.

If you need a little Mockingjay refresher course, Commander Lyme is a former Victor from District 2 who leads the rebellion in D2. From Mockingjay:

"The commander from 2, a middle aged woman named Lyme. She’s memorable enough, standing over six feet tall and heavily muscled. But it’s only when I see a clip of her in the field, leading a raid on the main entrance of the Nut, that something clicks and I realize I’m in the presence of another victor."
