After the name mix-up, the interview kicked offwith the presenters asking the British beauty if she's read John Green's novel,which the film is based on, despite being "so busy."

"No, I never readthe book or the script, actually I kind of winged it," she jokes dryly, beforegoing on: "No, of course, I love the book, I thinkthe book's amazing," she said. "John Green is an incredible author soreally if you haven't read his books, you should."

As the interview progressed,the star continues to make sarcastic jokes as she answers various questionsabout the film and her character Margo.
