Here’s a great story of how Anna’s fiancée Chris Pratt wanted to marry Anna after just a few dates. Check out the article, by PEOPLE, below!

Chivalry is not dead after all. Parks and Recreation’s Chris Pratt, who got engaged to actress Anna Faris late last year, knew she was The One immediately. “I knew I wanted to marry her pretty soon [after I met her,]” he told PEOPLE Thursday at the premiere for his new NBC series. “It took a while for me to admit it, because it would be crazy to be like, ‘I want to marry you’ the first day I met her. But I could have!” Pratt, 29, also explained that although he’s wearing a wedding band already, the couple have yet to tie the knot. “I just kind of wanted one,” he said. “She got one and I was like, ‘I want one!’ “

With Faris, 32, on hand to watch the series’ premiere live at Hollywood club MyHouse, Pratt said they plan to wed this summer. “We’re going to defy convention and not plan anything big,” he said. “We’re just going to go on vacation and come back married.”

In the meantime, Pratt is enjoying filming Parks and Recreation with cast members Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones and Aziz Ansari. “It’s the most fun work I’ve ever done,” he says. “It’s a hilarious cast.”

Entertainment Weekly has unveiled their 25 Funniest Women in Hollywood feature - and naturally Anna Faris is part of them! Along with a new photoshoot picture (click on the preview to the right to see it in full size) they wrote a short summary of why she’s funny. Check it out below!

ANNA FARIS

AGE: 32

CATCH HER IN: Observe and Report

SCHTICK: Blond ambition (see: exec-producer credit on House Bunny); blank-slate naïveté; willing to tumble for ya in countless loose-limbed pratfalls.

Besides the bride, the groom and the officiant, what’s the most important thing at a wedding? When it’s the wedding of Observe and Report star Anna Faris, it’s the Margaritas.

“We’re thinking something really sort of low key for sure,” Faris, 32, tells PEOPLE about her wedding plans, joking that it might be Mexican-themed. “Something that involves a lot of Margaritas, maybe!”

The bride-to-be, who in January confirmed her engagement to Bride Wars star Chris Pratt, 29, says the planning’s “going slowly” but that she doesn’t want a lot of hubbub, anyway. “A lot of alcohol and no drama! No fuss, that’s the most important thing. Warm would be great,” she says. “I just get to play and get my hair and make-up done in my professional life, so I don’t really know if I want that fuss for my wedding. I want simple.”

And she says she’s already enjoying one of the best parts of a marriage – the benefits of living together. “He’s great at doing laundry,” Faris jokes. “He got that from his mom. He’s a keeper.”

People.com has published a part of Anna’s article from Self magazine. You can read the tidbits below, and check out a picture from the photoshoot in the gallery. Check back for scans from the magazine’s April issue.

“I’m embarrassed on almost a daily basis,” Faris, 32, tells Self magazine for its April issue. “You sort of have to suck it up sometimes.”

Take, for instance, when fans approach The House Bunny star. Often, she says, the conversations are less than tactful.

“They say stuff like, ‘You’re so much shorter in person,’ ” Faris says. “Or ‘Oh, my god, you look just like that girl, but you are a lot prettier than she is.’ “

“You have to grin and bear it,” Faris says, revealing her optimistic approach. “I might say in return, ‘I know I looked skinnier in The House Bunny, but thanks to my diet of beer and doughnuts, I’m back to my fightin’ weight!’”

The House Bunny star Anna Faris will tie the knot with actor Chris Pratt of Bride Wars, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“They got engaged late last year,” says the rep. No further details were released.

In August, Faris told PEOPLE of the 29-year-old Pratt, “He’s awesome. He’s a great, great guy. I feel really lucky.”

I want to wish the happy couple a huge congratulations! You deserve all the happiness, Anna.

It is rumoured that Lynne Spears is planning to turn her tell-all book on Britney’s life into a film.

The memoir, Through The Storm, chronicled the “Toxic” singer’s downfall, and her descent into drink and drugs, which culminated in her very public breakdown. It also featured details of Britney’s relationships with Justin Timberlake and ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Now several resources report that Lynne is courting movie studios. A source claims, ‘She’s pitching the book around to studios. She even says she wants Julia Roberts to play her. It’s insane!’

And who will play the lead? Rumours are circulating that actress Anna Faris has been approached to take on the role of Britney.

The explosive memoir controversially detailed intimate access of the singer’s life, with Mrs Spears revealing that her daughter began drinking at 13, lost her virginity at 14 and was taking drugs by her 15th birthday.

Anna Faris’ proudest career achievement is the Stonette of the Year prize she was awarded by editors at marijuana magazine High Times. The star was singled out for the award in October 2007, because of her roles in Smiley Face and Entourage, and presented a working bong as a prize.

She tells Time Out New York, “I’ve got my bong award on my fireplace. It’s the only award I’ve ever won. I’m so proud.” And she hints she has used the smoking tool for its intended purpose: “It does work. I can celebrate myself while enjoying myself”.

Actress Anna Faris still feels a little sore about mocking Cameron Diaz in Lost In Translation - because she had no idea she was lampooning the Charlie’s Angels star.

It has become fabled that writer/director Sofia Coppola was poking fun at Diaz in the film, and cast Faris as the movie star’s alter-ego.

But the Scary Movie star had no idea. She says, “That’s been really hard… I auditioned, without having read the script, pretty much exactly the way I played it (character) in the movie. I filmed for only about a week, so I didn’t get that much one-on-one time with Sofia Coppola. When the movie came out eight or nine months later and these questions started coming, I felt blindsided. I felt defensive at first… I felt so terrible about the whole thing.”

Faris still cannot believe her Lost In Translation character is based on Diaz, despite the rumours: “I don’t think Sofia’s that vindictive”

Anna Faris researched her role as a Playboy outcast in new comedy The House Bunny by wandering around Hugh Hefner’s famous Holmby Hills, California mansion. In the film, Faris plays a Playboy regular who becomes a sorority mother at college after she’s kicked out of the mansion. And to get a feel for life at Hefner’s fabled pad, Faris spent time there.

She says, “There are peacocks wandering around and beautiful girls and oddly placed bottles of baby oil, without any babies in sight. I checked out the grotto, but I didn’t go in. There’s the old addage you might get pregnant.”

Faris is planning a return trip - The House Bunny’s premiere party will be held at the Playboy Mansion. She giggles, “I’m taking my mum.”

Anna Faris plays a Playboy bunny in the upcoming film The House Bunny and posed (clothed) for the September cover of Playboy magazine – but she says she wasn’t always so eager to show off her physique.

In high school, “I felt unattractive, short and self-conscious about my body, and I would purposely emphasize that by doing odd things,” Faris, 31, tells Playboy. “I wore glasses, braces, odd hairdos and dumpy clothes. I was clumsy and awkward. When I was a freshman I wore a Christmas tree skirt as a cape. I couldn’t get any dates until senior year.”

That’s not really a problem anymore for Faris, who was divorced from her husband, Ben Indra, in February. Neither are raunchy comedy roles – which even her parents are used to now.

“When I went with my parents and brother to see Scary Movie at a Seattle strip mall the opening weekend, I was like, ‘Mom, there’s going to be a couple of points when I’m going to need you to go to the bathroom or get me popcorn. Just obey me,’” she says. “Now I’ve totally broken them in.”
