Anna Kendrick walked her first red carpet at the 52nd Annual Tony Awards in 1998, and 17 years later, the 29-year-old actress admits she’s just as uncomfortable posing for photos as she was at 12 years old.
Kendrick says in British Glamour’s May 2015 issue, “Every year that goes by, I think that my on-camera smile is going to get easier.” To the Pitch Perfect 2 star’s chagrin, “It’s got worse and worse, to the point where I’m giving that Britney Spears terrified smile, where the lips are upturned, but there’s nothing but fear in the eyes…I’m also the queen of ruining group photos. All my friends will be smiling and looking really pretty, and I’ll be there pretending to pick my nose—or actually picking my nose. It’s a fine line.”
