Anna.kendrick gay
The pitch is perfectly mad in Anna Kendrick's stride on the dark side of filmmaker Paul Feig's warped sense of humor, "A Simple Favor." It's martini-sipper mom versus martini-swigger mom. Target mom versus Met Gala mom. Aspirational versus extra.
It's regular mom-meets-mom business, a modern mom-com – until Emily (Blake Lively) goes missing. Emily's sudden disappearance prompts Stephanie (Kendrick) to mount an enquiry by employing her keen Nancy Drew smarts and posting distressed clips of herself on her dorky craft vlog. (Friendship-bracelet tutorials are just gonna possess to wait.)
A bit camp? Yep. A bit queer? Obviously. And naturally so, as Kendrick's 15-year career is steeped in queerness: at age 17, she cut her acting teeth on "Camp," the 2003 teen musical-comedy directed by out filmmaker Todd Graff; as Beca, she brought covert aca-gayness to the three-part "Pitch Perfect" franchise; and in 2014, the 33-year-old Oscar-nominated actress slipped into Cinderella's glass slippers for Stephen Sondheim's "Into the Woods." And her long, impulsive kiss – "just another Tuesday," Emily notes – with Lively in "A Simple Favor," well, it's not exactly straight, she says.

It’s 2025—Let ‘Another Easy Favor’ Be Gay
[There are spoilers for Another Simple Favor below.]
If there was one thing I knew for certain I would get when I sat down for Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick’s Another Simple Favor, it was ridiculousness. As a quick refresher, the first show in this franchise has both patricide, sororicide, and an infidelity plotline in which a personality sleeps with her half-brother. It’s batshit crazy. But after watching the sequel, the most egregious thing about Another Simple Favor isn’t what happens in the plot (although there’s a lot of that) but what doesn’t. Because for some unfathomable reason, this franchise will still not let its two lead characters, Stephanie and Emily, just be gay already.
In the sequel to A Easy Favor (which is now streaming on Amazon Prime), we’re dropped back into this world about five years after the first production ends. Emily (serving time for two separate murders) has somehow managed to get out of jail early. She’s getting married, and she wants Stephanie to be her maid of honor. For some reason, Stephanie agrees, jetting off to Capri with a gal who killed two people and even tried to destroy h
Anna Kendrick has a memoir coming out calledScrappy Little Nobody. I would shade the hell out of a public figure getting a publication deal simply because she’s “good at Twitter,” but at the end of the day… I might read this book. Like, I read Mindy Kaling’s books and I love them, and Anna Kendrick is “real” in the way Mindy Kaling is real, so I think the memoir will probably be pretty enjoyable. Anna sat down with the Advocate to talk about her LGBTQ fans and friends and how she would be really let down if a flamboyant queen dressed up like her. Some highlights:
Whether she considers herself a homosexual icon: “Oh, male. I’m such a straight, cis, Boringface McGee over here, so I treasure that that could be even a little true. The idea that I’m resonating with other people who possess ever felt appreciate outsiders is the coolest.”
When she first became aware of her LGBT audience: “Well, I did Broadway when I was 12, so… [Laughs] Years later, when I got settled in L.A., I lived in West Hollywood, where I was a mini-celebrity because of Camp. I was basically in this movie that nobody had seen — except for everyone in West Hollywood. That’s actually where I met some of my oldest, truest friends.
All of h Anna Kendrick is hands down one of the funniest actresses and Tweeters on the planet. No, don't aim to argue with us, it's fact. Who else can get away with lines like 'I favor my men like I like my coffee. Silent' and 'Yes, of course I got your write – I'm just ignoring it. Don't make it weird'? Anyway, besides being our social media queen, the self-deprecating and Academy Award-nominated actress has just opened up on who it feels to be heralded as a gay representative. In an interview with The Advocate, Kendrick reveals: 'I'm such a unbent, cis, Boringface McGee over here, so I adoration that that could be even a little accurate. The idea that I'm resonating with other people who have ever felt like outsiders is the coolest.' Admitting that her 10 closest male and female friends are gay, she says: 'Gay people own just always been in my life. I recollect my parents having to tell me as a kid that there were people, like some people in our church, who objected to homosexuality. I was like, 'Wait, so they're idiots, right?'' Preach, Anna. Preach. The actress – who was praised for her on-screen When Rebel Wilson’s character made the joke in Pitch Perfect about how, statistically, at least one of the Barden Bellas was gay, she thought she was the only one who was secretly queer. Now, all these years later, she has a wife, Anna Kendrick and Ester Dean have expressed queer leanings, and, most recently, Anna Camp has come out by showing off her super cute relationship with her girlfriend. Plus, some of the other women from that movie are undetermined; I found no proof of their sexuality online, but some of them have the vibe. (Also I know Hailee Steinfeld just married a whole man but she has played too many queer characters too successfully for me to not be waiting for her to come out as queer, too.) In a recent interview with Pride, Rebel Wilson said that on the set of Pitch Perfect 2, she remembers having some really agreeable, candid chats about sexuality behind the scenes, and that she has felt really supported during her coming out journey. Rebel Wilson was technically strongarmed into coming out by an Australian tabloid back in 2022, and Anna Camp casually came out earlier this year with a hard launch duri
