Shailene Woodley sure knows how to keep herself busy while the season of The Secret Life of the American Teenager is on hiatus. She has a film releasing in November called The Descendants directed by Alexander Payne, and in this film she is starring along side Judy Greer and Mr. George Clooney in the main leads.

The Descendants have been premiering at a lot of film festivals including the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) and has been receiving amazing reviews!

The Descendants is about a mother who suffers from a boating accident and a father who is known to be a land lover who post accident tries to reconnect with his daughters, the father being George Clooney.

Now when you star in a movie with George Clooney you are DEFINTELY a star, or have a purpose in Hollywood, basically you are going somewhere. But reportedly Shailene disagrees with this and does not believe that she is a celebrity, nor will she ever be one. Even though Secret Life of the American Teenager is getting great ratings, and she is in such a highly acclaimed film that is receiving great reviews even before its official release she still only sees herself as and only as simply an artiste. She said, “I’m an artist, I’m not a celebrity, or a star, and I never, ever ever will be.”

At the rate she is going, I would beg to differ. She is a star and one day she’ll look back on this quote and laugh.

What do you think, is Shailene a star or a celebrity? Comment with your answers!
