Anna Kendrick's birthday
She was raised in Portland, Maine by an accountant and a history teacher. She couldnโt have been further away from Hollywood if she tried but maybe thatโs why sheโs so down to earth and relatable. Of course, itโs Anna Kendrick.ย
Sweet, beautiful, and absolutely hilarious. She has a strong presence on social media and many followers who love to hear her light-hearted stories. So, what are some things that aren’t well known about Anna Kendrick?
Sheโs Written A Book
Anna Kendrick is best known for acting but sheโs also turned her creative hand to writing too. โScrappy Little Nobodyโ is a funny pieced together book where Anna gets candid about life and mistakes. The aim of the book is to show people they arenโt alone when they get things wrong.
She Never Thought โPitch Perfectโ Would Get a Sequel
It’s common knowledge, there are now more than two โPitch Perfectโ movies. However, Anna never thought a โPitch Perfectโ sequel would be picked up. According to an interview she did on the Today Show, Anna confessed that she thought a sequel would be impossible.
The star admitted to thinking that if other movies that had made more money had been refused a sequel, there was no way โPitch Perfect 2โ could ever be made. Fortunately for her fans, she was wrong.
She Had Three Movies Released in Six Months
Anyone thinking they’d seen a lot of Anna Kendrick in 2015 would be right. The movies โPitch Perfect 2โ, โInto The Woodsโ, and โThe Last Five Yearsโ were all released within six months of one another. Whatโs even more surprising is the fact that screen musicals are rarely made in Hollywood, especially this closely together.
Kendrick was one busy girl during this time, filming and attending promotional events for each movie.
Zac Efron Threw Up On Her
When thinking about Zac Efron and Anna Kendrick together, no one could imagine a total disaster. However, while filming for โMike and Dave Need Wedding Datesโ the cast members were told to eat fake pig guts. Anna managed to avoid responding to the request but Zac wasnโt quite as clever.
As soon as he ingested the fake pig guts, he started to feel unwell. He ended up puking all over Annaโs shoes and yet, somehow, cemented their friendship forever.
She Gets Nervous During Interviews
Anna has no qualms about admitting that she gets nervous and awkward during interviews. She accepts that itโs part of her job and sheโs always professional but she has admitted to needing liquid courage on occasion.
She often tweets about her life and experiences which is why so many people find her lovable. On one occasion, she admitted to getting a bit too loose during a Marie Curie interview.
She Has a Hot Dog Named After Her
Anna once told her followers all about a hot dog thatโs named after her in a Chicago hot dog place called Hot Dougโs. The hot dog is meant to be flaming hot and Kendrick told her fans that her mouth was still burning.
