Hailee Steinfeld joins the EW PopFest lineup

Hailee Steinfeld is on the edge of a major moment… and she’s about to spend some of that moment at EW PopFest.

The actress had star-making turns in movies like True Grit and Pitch Perfect 2, and her career is expected to reach new heights with The Edge of Seventeen, out Nov. 18 and produced by James L. Brooks. Further, her debut EP, Haiz, is out now, with hit singles including “Love Myself” and “Hell Nos and Headphones,” and she recently collaborated with Zedd on “Starving.” Now she’ll be performing and previewing The Edge of Seventeen this weekend on the EW PopFest stage. How’s that for a fab one-two punch?

Steinfeld joins an already stacked lineup at PopFest, including performances by JoJo, Nick Jonas, Janelle Monae, Tove Lo, and Jake Miller, to name a few. Guests will have a opportunity to pick up a mic on the Lip Sync Battle stage while Survivor lovers will have the chance to attempt some real challenges from the show. Fans of Gilmore Girls, Grey’s Anatomy, The CW’s superhero shows, This Is Us, and so much more will have the chance to see their favorite stars up close and in person, while Jennifer Aniston will be on hand with her Office Christmas Party cast mates and Eddie Redmayne and Katherine Waterston will conjure up a sneak peak of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

EW PopFest runs from Oct. 29-30 at The Reef in Downtown Los Angeles.

The Edge of Seventeen Trailer – Exclusive (Hailee Steinfeld) | MTV

Everyone knows that growing up is hard, and life is no easier for high school junior Nadine (Hailee Steinfeld), who is already at peak awkwardness when her all-star older brother Darian (Blake Jenner) starts dating her best friend Krista (Haley Lu Richardson).

Don’t Expect to See Hailee Steinfeld Wearing Earrings Anytime Soon

Hailee Steinfeld seems to have zero trouble when it comes to accessorizing; she’s an avid wearer of chokers and even stacked her bracelets while celebrating Swarovski’s signature Crystaldust Collection. But one piece of jewelry we rarely see on the star? Earrings, since Hailee still doesn’t have her ears pierced.

“I’ve worn clip-ons before to events, which is always super nerve-racking because I’m paranoid they’re going to fall off,” she said when we chatted with her over the phone. “I’m just constantly touching my ears to make sure they’re still there. My mom wanted me to be old enough to make my own decisions about piercing my ears, and now that I’m old enough, I’ve decided I’m too indecisive. So that’s where I’m at.”

As for if she’d ever get anything else pierced, like her belly button or nose? “I don’t know,” she told us. “I think ears would be the only thing. I mean, that could change, but as of now, I have no interest in any others for myself.”

Fair enough, Hailee. The star’s making bare lobes look pretty chic, anyway. Look through for a few looks that Hailee, naturally, didn’t pair with earrings, then dare yourself to ditch your studs, hoops, and drops for a day.
