The Hunger Games Characters as A cappella Stars

What would it look like if our favorite Hunger Games characters were in an a cappella group? 

It may not be a question you’ve ever posed for yourself, but thanks to Elizabeth Banks’ new movie, ‘Pitch Perfect‘, MTV has got some answers for you. They’ve put our Panem protagonists in the singing group appropriately named ‘The Mockingjays‘ and given them each a solo to sing. So which song fits each of our characters best? Read below to find out:

Katniss: Mash-up of Alicia Keys’ “Girl on Fire” and Destiny Child’s “Survivor”
We’ve already made our plea for Keys’ latest single to blaze the “Catching Fire” soundtrack, so of course it would be our District 12 diva’s theme song. With Destiny Child’s 2001 hit interwoven, this could be the girl-power anthem of the millennium.

Peeta: Bryan Adams’ “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You”
Peeta is a sensitive soul, so we have no doubt his performance number would be some sort of ballad. This mellow jam from the “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves” soundtrack perfectly sums up the baker boy’s feelings for his fellow District 12 tribute. We can already see Katniss perched on a stool as Peeta croons to her like a dystopian Backstreet Boy. Swoon!

Gale: Police’s “Every Breath You Take”
As deep as Gale’s affections run for Katniss, he’s powerless to help her once she’s stepped foot inside the deadly arena. All he can do is watch the televised death match unfold on the Jumbotron — a sentiment perfectly expressed in this 1983 hit. “Every breath you take / And every move you make / Every bond you break, every step you take / I’ll be watching you.” Yep, sounds like Gale.

Haymitch: Jamie Foxx’s “Blame It (On the Alcohol)”
A no-brainer for Panem’s most infamous drunk, right? Just blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol!

Effie: Diana Ross’ “Theme From Mahogany (Do You Know Where You’re Going To?)” 
Sure, the lyrics don’t really resonate with our idea of the District 12 mentor, but we know how much she adores the luxury hardwood…

Which solo would you give the characters from ‘The Hunger Games’? Tell us in the comments below!
