Me too, Mandy. I actually pictured a skinny, pale girl with long blonde hair.
Although I rarely pay attention to descriptors when I read. My brain pictures people a certain way, regardless of how they describe them. I pictured Peeta as a brunette in my head, and didn't realize until book 2 that they described him as being blonde.

I totally pictured Willow Smith as a great person for this part (look wise), but I just couldn't bring myself to see her actually get the part. So this girl works, she looks a lot like Willow, but she's not mainstream.
I would love for this cast to be full of a lot of new actors/actresses.
