If it weren't for the simple swipe of his signature gold eyeliner, you'd almost never know that Cinna hails from the garish Capitol of Panem.

But then again, as fans of The Hunger Games know, Cinna (played by Lenny Kravitz in the film adaptation of Suzanne Collins's hit trilogy) is anything but a stereotypical Capitol citizen.

Assigned to assist Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta (Josh Hutcherson) as they tour the districts in Catching Fire, his assistance is needed more than ever.

John Mayer, Zooey Deschanel Hold Court at Chateau Marmont

It was musicians' night at West Hollywood's Chateau Marmont.

Singer John Mayer was looking for a table to meet up with friends at the famed hotel during a recent night out. The singer sported a large, cream-colored cowboy hat and a fitted, dark jacket, and seemed calm and composed during his visit to the packed nightspot. Also on the patio that night: Zooey Deschanel, who took a spot in a secluded section with a girlfriend. The New Girl star – and She & Him singer – seemed "cheery and perky," an onlooker tells us.

And Lenny Kravitz (starring in the upcoming The Hunger Games) was hanging out with an entourage of about six pals, and he held court on a sofa, which was barricaded off by chairs to protect the group.
