Gorgessity Summer Saoirse Written bySarah Do you know how long it took me to master pronouncing “Saoirse”? I keep wanting to say “Cerise”. Seer-shuh. I have to keep repeating it to myself whenever I see her name. Seer-shuh. Saoirse Ronan is rapidly becoming one of my favorite young actresses. I loved her in By Lainey • May 11, 2011 08:30 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Saoirse Ronan enters the Black Hole of Taste Written bySarah I think you all understand my disdain for the Twilight Saga as “literature”, and that I hold the movies to be only slightly better at best. I have zero respect for Stephenie Meyer as a writer. One of the few times I’ve ever been in synch with By Lainey • May 04, 2011 05:04 am
Assy Style 17-off at the Met: Dakota & Saoirse I suppose, if there’s anyone who could get away with the Valentino flower tulle explosion worn by Dakota Fanning at the Met Gala it was probably Dakota Fanning. She’s 17. Prom is still within the parametres of her actual experience. But f-ck is this thing ever ugly. And By Lainey • May 03, 2011 01:31 am
Gorgessity Saoirse’s blue shoes Saoirse Ronan was in New York yesterday promoting Hanna. As I noted yesterday in the Cate Blanchett post, Hanna opens on Friday and you’re totally seeing it, right? The star of course of Hanna is Saoirse. And Saoirse’s performance is so impressive, she had Lionsgate on pause on By Lainey • Apr 07, 2011 04:44 am
The Hunger Games Young vs. old Hunger Games Written by Sarah I’ve been saying for the past year that sixteen-year-old Saorise Ronan should be Katniss, and after seeing her in True Grit, I also thought that fourteen-year-old Hailee Steinfeld would also make a good Katniss. I have since decided to strike Steinfeld from my list because while By Lainey • Mar 14, 2011 02:27 am
Exclusives Katniss casting update Exclusive I was the first to report yesterday that Jennifer Lawrence has emerged as the frontrunner for the role of Katniss in the film adaptation of The Hunger Games. Several hours later, just before the end of the business day, Variety posted the same, confirming my initial story that Lawrence By Lainey • Mar 03, 2011 04:29 am
Girlcrushes Now this is a trailer: Hanna edition I know. It’s one of my common refrains. That there is an art to cutting movie trailers and most of the time, Hollywood doesn’t give a sh-t. Which is why when a really, really great one comes along, it’s something to fist pump about. The film is By Lainey • Dec 22, 2010 02:03 am
Quiveration 2 & 4 together How will I focus the rest of the day? Jim Sturgess and Colin Farrell, numbers 2 and 4 on my Five List, just showed up together at a presser for The Way Back in London. They did not pose side by side. In a way I’m thankful for it. By Lainey • Dec 08, 2010 04:07 am
Style Saoirse in green and as Katniss? Acclaimed young actress Saoirse Ronan attended the Irish premiere of Shrek yesterday in a pair of steezy pink chucks with a blazer, topped off with light green Ray-Bans which obviously I love because I have them too.

Style Saoirse is versatile Lovely Saoirse Ronan is still promoting The Lovely Bones which, after a pushed back release, hasn’t been performing too badly. Obviously not the awards bait it was predicted to be last summer after critical annihilation but with a revamped marketing strategy focusing on teen girls, Bones isn’t a By Lainey • Jan 26, 2010 01:11 pm
Saoirse Ronan More young steeze Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning… not all the young ones are skank ones. Add Saoirse Ronan to the list. She is 15, currently on a major promotional tour for The Lovely Bones, showed up in New York last night perfectly styled and has, in fact, been perfectly styled all By Lainey • Dec 03, 2009 04:58 am
Gorgessity Well hello Saoirse It’s been, what, 3 years since Atonement? She’s like a new person. And her face has changed too, non? I used to think Saoirse Ronan looked exactly like Chloe Sevigny. It’s becoming less and less, now almost not at all. When we were prepping for the Oscars By Lainey • Nov 25, 2009 02:07 am
