  • Anna Kendrick's talent has given rise to one of the most organic careers that Hollywood has seen in recent years. Despite rampant nepotism and competition, she's been able to shape a long-term, successful career in an industry where it's extremely difficult simply finding stable work. Let's dive into what makes her approach so unique.

    I managed a popular restaurant in Hollywood for a couple years before the Pandemic and we’d constantly have celebrities dine with us but Anna Kendrick was somewhat of a regular. She was the sole celebrity I semi got to know and let me tell you, she is exactly who you see in these clips, but so much more down-to-earth. She’s super confident, funny, and comfortable to be around. She never took herself too seriously. One night a song by The Spice Girls came on and she just stood up and started singing along. Whenever she was there, people just had a good time around her. Just a cool girl. Thought I’d share cause she made a great impression upon me🤷🏻‍♂️

      It’s so different from what she portrays that I think it’s possible because celebs are there to keep an image they have curated. I’m glad to see some good stores about her.

      Do a little research she’s a horrible person behind the camera and people can’t stand her. Her dry sarcastic comedy isn’t humor it’s arrogance. She’s extremely rude and disrespectful to fans, crew, assistants and regular people. There countless reports.
      People are extremely vulnerable to the persona and false image of celebrities and content creators. That’s an false persona they put in because that’s what they’re good at. People can’t be so gullible all the time.

      I disagree, i think celebrities are very authentic, they are as authentic as “regular people” after all they are regular people just famous. Authenticness is excepted and like by the masses. Many other celebrities “authenticity” isnt one that is like/ excepted as “relatable”. And we are currently obsessed with making sure our celebrities are relatable to everyone, which isn’t possible

      @@missMediaChick "Endless reputation" would be a term used for the thing she is more known for. A handful of stories spread by tabloid magazines is not a reputation. This video is her reputation. What I commented is her reputation. There's not only thousands of positive stories about her, but theres hours and hours of interview footage that prove otherwise. That's what this whole video is about. So you are saying that the unsubstantiated negative reports you read in tabloids are what you chose to believe over the overwhelming evidence showing otherwise, and you thought that you'd win people over (fans nonetheless) by commenting with your minority view that you've chosen to believe against logic and your own eyes.

      I really like her. But I think her authenticity is almost a sad reflection of the horrors of social media and Hollywood. She can be anything including her authentic self because she is one of the most attractive humans on the planet. Her looks, her personality, her career are all a perfect encapsulation of what society wants people to be. And that gives her freedom.
      Other people successful or not have to grind. But that grind ultimately goes no where because we can never compete with her. She will always be more attractive and charming than 99.9% of the population not matter how hard they work. In the past that was ok. Because Anna could only be in one place at a time. But with social media she and those like her can be everywhere. The normals have no chance to compete. Normal people can never be as authentic because they need to try to match her image. Only the Anna's can be their authentic selves.
      We used to live in a world with a downside to fame. Where fame was a trap keeping people from living authentically. But this has reversed. We now live in a world where only the few with massive social power are free to live how they want. The rest of us are too addicted to our phones to be ourselves. And even if we escape momentarily no one else notices because "Anna" is everywhere.

Nothing wrong with doing it for a career, though, and I'm sure once you do it as your career, you can get burned out doing it in your free time, too. I come from a software engineering background and this is something they look for in hiring sometimes. Employers want to see that you've done projects in your spare time. It's unfair in a way because if you do it for a living, you don't always want to do it at home - but it does demonstrate a passion for it if you are choosing to do your own projects in your off time.

      So you think her interviews that are also on camera with pre approved topics of discussions are a window into her her true character? That’s an adolescent and dangerous comprehension of reality. If you want to know who she or any other person is in real life you cannot go by footage from projects or interviews. Be careful though your reality might get shattered. Anna for instance is a real POS. Maybe this is a learning experience. Try searching the web for anyone who’s worked with her or met her off camera. Try tik tok or UA-cam maybe. Google is free but fan and media blogs likely won’t be a great source of authentic information.
