Shailene Woodley Dishes on Making Toothpaste, Foraging Food & More of Her "Alternative" Lifestyle Practices

Forget five star restaurants!

Shailene Woodley is perfectly happy to find her next meal at the—wait for it—farm.

That's right, the Divergent star recently opened up to Flaunt magazine about her remarkably un-Hollywood approach to life, and we're pretty sure her all-natural lifestyle will have a few of you feeling guilty about your last meal.

"I think everything about my lifestyle is fairly alternative," Woodley revealed. "I gather my own spring water from mountains every month. I go to a farm to get my food."

So much for delivery!

And don't expect the 21-year-old to rely on a fancy chef to whip up her organic goods into a healthy meal for her. On the contrary, the Golden Globe nominated actress is very hands-on when it comes to stocking her home with all the essentials.

"I make everything from my own toothpaste to my own body lotions and face oils. I could go on for hours," she says. "I make my own medicines; I don't get those from doctors. I make my own cheese and forage wild foods and identify wild plants."

Normally, we'd be surprised to learn that a star with so many projects and red carpet commitments would have that much time on her hands, but the low-key Woodley has been known to hit premieres with no makeup and wet hair.

And we're guessing her new short ‘do has probably helped her cut down on her red carpet prep time, too.

But time consuming or not, we're guessing Woodley will stick to her alternative practices.

"It's an entire lifestyle," she said. "It's appealing to my soul."

Marisa Miller on Making Her Film Debut in R.I.P.D: "It's So Exciting"

Get ready to see Marisa Miller's big-time acting debut!

The beautiful Victoria's Secret angel is taking her talents from the catwalk to the big screen with her upcoming film R.I.P.D, which costars Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds and hits theaters this Friday.

"It's so exciting, and for my first film to be a part of such an amazing cast is such an honor," she tells E! News' Terrence Jenkins

So what role does Miller play in the funny crime flick?

"R.I.P.D stands for the Rest in Peace Department, so Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds are cops of the underworld and when they come to earth fighting these bad guys, they're dead, so people on the street would see me—I'm Jeff Bridges' disguise—and Ryan Reynolds has his disguise who is Grandpa Chen [James Hong]. So the visual of us two together…a lot of the comedy plays out within that," she explains.

The blond bombshell even did her own stunts!

"Originally the stunt where I get hit by the bus, it was really dangerous and they were gonna have a stunt woman do it but the shot was really tight and they asked me to do it," Miller told us.

"I'm pretty athletic, and I was actually really excited that they asked me to do it because it was one of the best memories I had of shooting and it was really intense and hard but it was really funny."

(That's a better reaction than Reynolds almost barfing during his stunts.)

Speaking of the actor, Marisa shared that his charismatic attitude while shooting definitely helped lighten the mood for what she anticipated would be a nerve-wrecking experience.

"He is so funny, naturally. And that was so great about being on set with him. I mean, me working for the first time on set with Kevin Bacon, Jeff Bridges, Ryan Reynolds—I mean, this is an all-star cast so I thought I was gonna be really nervous and intimidated but having someone like Ryan make you laugh was just the best."

Watch the clip to find out how Miller got back to her pre-baby body!
