The cups song has been around for a few decades. It was being taught a summer camps and schools for generations. I don’t think anyone knows who created it first. But Anna definitely perfected it and made it popular.
@@ericasuzannedavis isn't it funny we teach kids sing along songs that have things like two bottles of whiskey or 99 bottles of beer haha(though on my school field trips we were only allowed to sing 99 bottles of Coke)
Honestly, Anna is such a role model to me. I spent an hour teaching myself the cup song because I liked it so much. My fathers girlfriend can do it and she helped me learn this. I can now do the cup song and would never have known about it if it weren’t for Anna.

More talent in this segment than most "music artists" have in their entire album. Great sense of rhythm and pitch, proper vocalisation. Can't say the same for some "artists" in Hollywood.
@Kurt Snyder Same world as you. You just have a pubescent brain and a mental illness. Ugos need loving too though, you are providing a service. Keep doing you, Kurt. We are all pulling for you!
wtf you mean by, "just enough" beauty? she's over a thousand times more attractive than any woman i've ever seen (and i'm 41 and have spent a lot of time online for research purposes).
She makes every movie she is in better than it would be without her, even small roles like End of Watch it is such a dark movie and she appears and it is like a ray of sunshine
This is even better 10yrs later after she was on Hot Ones and revealed that she didn't do this for anyone else just in case she was ever on Letterman and he wanted it.
Nushka Ifthikar Yes, her age! Damn, I thought she was 20 something. But that's pretty good for her though, right? When she's forty, she will have a face of 30!

Thank you for posting this! Anna is a multi- talented superstar, and was perfectly cast in Pitch Perfect. And I really really miss Dave, he was the late night host of my University years (in the late Eighties) and was the perfect nightcap to a night "on the campus".👍
I remember at summer camp in 1998 we were playing "the cup game" in the cafeteria. Which was the clapping, tapping and cup taps parts without the singing. The last motion of the cycle was to drop the cup to the person on our right. Sounded great with like 20 people in same rhythm! 😃
Wow you people are so harsh on her. She isn't gloating saying she's amazing. She was being modest and sweet. It was Dave pushing her and saying she was great. She only agreed with sarcastic humor by saying she was amazing. As for taking credit, she never said it's her song. She did say she found it online, and for all we know maybe she couldn't remember the names of the originals. She's been put on the spot here, not like she could prepare a bloody speech about it. Give her a break. I love how all the people talking shit would never tell her that to her face. The internet is just full of two faced people hiding behind their keyboards.

OK, guys. I am an elementary music teacher and we have been teaching the Cup Game for well over 30 years. I taught fifth grade -- some would get it and others wouldn't. We also did it slower (to, for instance, National Emblem March). When Pitch Perfect came out, I was amazed -- "look, she's doing the cup game." When my fifth graders showed up the next semester, they all knew it. Oh, and, my sixth grade choir did it that year -- singing and accompanying themselves. Just sayin' -- it's not that hard once you learn the pattern. Oh, and I don't sound like Anna Kendricks!
I did this at a party once.

Holy crap. She sounds EXACTLY like the studio version. See that's talent.
And, oh by the way, she can act. She was tremendous in "Up in the Air" without singing a note.
Daniel Dougan yep I love that movie.
In the movie whenever she was singing alone she did it live
That look on her face when she finished singing...
Its like 10/10?

No she should get a 10,000/10
You can't rate her. She's too good, she rates the rating system.

Bruno Mars can do that too.
Ik, im just pointing out Anna bcuz of this specific vid :) Bruno is amazing tho.
+Football_Girl21 She rather steals her songs from other poeple
+Walter Bishop Not a new concept, and it doesn't reduce the fact that she's talented.
Cort Dodd
Doesn't mean she is talented. She isn't unique or does anything that no one else can. So just a good singer but thats about it.
It's amazing that the audience is in dead silence and waiting to clap screaming when she's done with singing.
Honestly, Anna is such a role model to me. I spent an hour teaching myself the cup song because I liked it so much. My fathers girlfriend can do it and she helped me learn this. I can now do the cup song and would never have known about it if it weren’t for Anna.
The look she gives him when she's done omg
The look was like pow!
