Barbara Walters aired her last "Most Fascinating People" special on Wednesday (Dec. 18), where she not only revealed her 10 most fascinating people of 2013 but took a look back at the past 20 years of doing the special.

Walters also selected her no. 1 most fascinating person for 2013, who she also declared as her most fascinating person of the past 20 years -- Hillary Clinton.

 

Walters points out that this is the first time Clinton has been interviewed by Walters when either she or her husband Bill Clinton weren't holding public office.

"It's a relief," says Clinton "because I knew that I wanted to get off the high-wire that I had been on for so long to spend time just doing things that do us a lot of joy -- playing with our dogs, going to movies, just hanging out."

Walters then presses her to answer about whether she's running for president in 2016 and Clinton is circumspect.

Jennifer Lawrence sat down with Vogue to discuss paparazzi and the super "weird" past that made her the lovable star she is today. It turns out America's dream best friend had a pretty "unhappy" childhood.

"I was a weirdo," she said, candidly. “I’ve always just had this weird anxiety. I hated recess. I didn’t like field trips. Parties really stressed me out. And I had a very different sense of humor."

The "Hunger Games" star shares a few quirky stories -- for example, one about the time she thought it would be really funny to jump out the emergency exit of a moving bus. Yet, her experiences are less light-hearted than the movie star we've come to love. Lawrence was placed into therapy and heavily medicated for quite some time. In fact, her issues didn't really clear up until she left high school and properly pursued acting at...

At this point in some metropolitan areas it feels like you can't travel a couple of miles without seeing Ryan Gosling's face on some sort of poster/magazine. The actor's not just a little bit hot but he's on fire career-wise at the moment. He pops up on the big screen for the third time within the past four months in the new George Clooney-directed film "The Ides of March," continually stretching his acting wings for the world to see.The actor plays the wide-eyed idealistic staffer Stephen Meyers who starts going down the rabbit's hole that reveals the unattractive and corrupt side of politics as he helps out the campaign for presidential hopeful Mike Morris (George Clooney).We got the chance to talk with the actor about his character's internal conflict, being surrounded by big-named talent and the prep he's doing to get behind the camera for his own movie one day.

Justin Long is probably best known as half of America's dream boyfriend, turning in cutie-pie performances in He's Just Not That Into You and Drag Me to Hell (not to mention all those hoodies in the Mac ads) that just make you want to hang out with him and play Wii. He easily could have coasted on that reputation for another decade, but instead, Long is switching it up a bit-- THR reports that he's taking a role in The Conspirator, Robert Redford's period drama about a trial related to the Lincoln assassination. Long will play a soldier who's missing a limb thanks to the Civil War, who is friends with James McAvoy's character, a lawyer defending Confederate sympathizer Mary Surratt (Robin Wright Penn) after she's accused of helping assassinate Lincoln. Phew-- there's a lot going on there, right? The whole missing a limb thing immediately screams "Ben Stiller...
