Why we're watching… Katie Chang
Who's this button-bright prim thing? The breakout star of The Bling Ring.
Bling Ring? Another cosmetic trend from Hollywood? It's Sofia Coppola's new film, which portrays the real-life gang that broke into celebrities' LA houses to loot drugs and luxury goods. They got Orlando Bloom's rug, you know.
Oh. And she looks like such a nice girl. She is. And talented. Pre-release buzz was all about co-star Emma Watson, but with her icy performance as alpha bitch Rebecca, it's 18-year-old Katie Chang who's the hot ticket now.
She gives great "shallow Valley girl". Are you sure she's acting? Although they share a sharp eye for designer fashion, Katie couldn't be less Rebecca. Having moved from Illinois to LA for filming, she's off to New York to study creative writing at Columbia University. And she's a feminist who loves Sylvia Plath.

Next up: keg parties and sleeping until noon? Unlikely. She's just wrapped on A Birder's Guide to Everything alongside Sir Ben Kingsley, and has ambitions to be the next Lena Dunham.
She says: "When my managers said I got the part [of Rebecca], I thought they were lying. I had a theory someone was playing a mean joke on me."
We say: A crook with a book habit – nice.
The Bling Ring is in cinemas from 5 July (theblingring.com)
