The fact is, we {or at least I}, are HUGE Elizabeth Banks fans. I’ll be honest, I haven’t seen a ton of her films except The Hunger Games,
40 Year Old Virgin and Pitch Perfect
{ps she’s directing Pitch Perfect 2} but as as person, Elizabeth seems like basically the best. She’s hilarious, gorgeous, down-to-earth and a super badass hardworker
I’ll admit besides frequenting her website and following her on Instagram, I don’t know a ton about Elizabeth. So I ran to the interwebz in preparation for this Girl Crush admission & learned the following:
- Elizabeth Banks is 40. What the. Are you SERIOUS? Us normal girls have NO chance you guys. NO CHANCE.
- She graduated Magna Cum Laude from University of Pennsylvania. WHAT UP PHILLY! (I live there..) and damn.. smart bitch
- She’s been with her husband since college. Aww. AND converted to Judaism for him
- She has two sons born through surrogate. My first thought upon reading that was “Phew.. does that mean I don’t have to rush to have kids? ANd if I have kids through surrogacy do you think Elizabeth would be my bff and talk me through it?” And then I stopped being crazy. Almost.
Elizabeth does this HILARIOUS series on her You Tube Channel called: Really Important Questions with Elizabeth Banks and the latest video released today called Hayffie Shipper. I had no idea “Hayffie” was a thing (it’s from The Hunger Games) and LOVED learning that it exists.
The video is short & sweet and you can totally pretend you’re working for a second to watch it. Of course don’t complain to me when you get sucked in a 30 minute Elizabeth Banks video hole because you can’t stop at just one. This is your warning.
Really Important Questions with Elizabeth Banks: Hayffie Shipper
Okay Elizabeth Banks.. will you be my bff?
That’s what I thought.
Are you Girl Crushin’ on Elizabeth Banks as much as I am?
