MTV MOVIES BLOG – ANNA KENDRICK (JESSICA)
Anna Kendrick talked to MTV about made up fueds, her parents supporting her career, the cast and more…
Believe it or not, there are still some “Twilight” haters out there trying to stir the pot. And as the series’ young stars continue to grow in fame, I’m sure we’ll hear even more stories trying to invent feuds between them.My mom tells me this stuff and I wish she didn’t,” laughed Kendrick when we spoke with her, discussing a rumored rift between herself and Kristen Stewart. “But she reads everything, and you know, she is my mom! She was like, ‘Somebody said that you were mean on set,’ and I was actually like horrified, you know? Maybe I was having a bad day, and did I take it out on the wrong person? I felt so awful.”
“And then I read [the story] and they were talking about how I was giving Kristen dirty looks,” she sighed. “And I was like, ‘Oh, so you’re straight-up making this up?’ Like ‘This is literally, you’re just making this up as you go?’ Because I adore Kristen! She is totally my homey.”
Unlike Jessica Stanley, Anna does her best to stay away from gossip. “I went through a short period about 4 years ago when I would read those,” she said of the supermarket mags likely to start featuring “Twilight” stars any day now. “And it made me feel really icky, like a real icky feeling deep down, so I try not to read them.”The truth is, the “Twilight” gang is pretty tight. “Nikki [Reed] got me into Laura Marling, she is rad, we just went to see her at Hotel Café,” Kendrick remembered. “I also went to see [Robert Pattinson play a show] one night; I remember seeing that he played guitar and thinking that was pretty cool. And then I heard him sing, and I was like, ‘That is just not fair!’ He has an awesome voice, and it was like ‘This is an uneven distribution of wealth!’ But yeah, he’s a talented young boy.”

I think she will make a pretty good Jessica. As long as she can play a nasty jealous CENSORED, she will do fine.
The tabloids are always making up some sort of drama but Anna says she and Kristen got along. Do you see Anna Kendrick as Jessica? Does it come with the territory that tabloids will make up rumors?
