Anna Kendrick opens up about her sexual fluidity
In a city known for its happy hour culture, summer can be an even better time to hold advantage of post-work slurp and eat deals. Interns are in town, summer Fridays are in complete swing, and patios and rooftops are aplenty. Here are a few prime, non-comprehensive spots for an afternoon deal with besties, colleagues, and new connections.
Alfreda. Dupont’s Alfreda, a tribute to the chef’s grandmother, offers relaxed pizza and traditional Italian eats. The happy hour runs Monday-Friday 4-6 p.m., featuring $8 spritzes and BOGO pizzas. Few do spritzes appreciate the Italians, and Alfreda leans in on five kinds plus one N/A spritz; our go-to is the rose and mezcal with grapefruit or the locally made Don Ciccio limoncello spritz with basil.
Lyle’s. Especially leaning into the spritz side of summer is at Lyle’s, fully embracing the fizzy ephemera of the season with the Summer of Spritz. The Dupont Circle hotel restaurant imagines cocktails from France, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. Spritzes feature limoncello and vinho verde. For those that hit Lyle’s every week during the spritz special—and get a literal stamp on Lyle’s passport—wil
Anna Kendrick On Existence A Gay Icon: 'I'm Such A Straight, Cis, Boringface McGee Over Here'
Anna Kendrick is hands down one of the funniest actresses and Tweeters on the planet.
No, don't try to argue with us, it's fact.
Who else can acquire away with lines like 'I appreciate my men favor I like my coffee. Silent' and 'Yes, of course I got your text – I'm just ignoring it. Don't make it weird'?
Anyway, besides existence 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 homosexual icon.
In an interview with The Advocate, Kendrick reveals: 'I'm such a straight, cis, Boringface McGee over here, so I affectionate that that could be even a little true. The idea that I'm resonating with other people who hold ever felt fancy outsiders is the coolest.'
Admitting that her 10 closest male and female friends are gay, she says: 'Gay people have just always been in my life. I think of 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
The pitch is perfectly crazy in Anna Kendrick's walk on the dark side of filmmaker Paul Feig's warped perception of humor, "A Simple Favor." It's martini-sipper mom versus martini-swigger mom. Objective 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 include 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 touch – "just another Tuesday," Emily notes – with Lively in "A Easy Favor," well, it's not exactly unbent, she says.

Anna Kendrick has it all: she’s cute, she’s funny, she’s talented, she’s nice at twitter, she has kind teeth, she has shiny hair and she can sing songs with paper cups! Furthermore, she gave PrideSource a very very gay interview in advance of her upcoming film, A Simple Favor, which looks so gay it has probably already made out with one of my ex-girlfriends.
After asking Anna about the queerness of a long list of previously played characters, eventually noting “So much of what you do is just a bit gay,” PrideSource went straight for the homosexy jugular:
You’ve been open about your girl crushes over the years. Have you ever had a girl crush that was or could have been romantic?
Let me think about that. I definitely – there’s somebody I’m still friends with, and when we met we kissed. This was after high school, and it was the first time I had kissed a girl where it wasn’t just like, we’re at a party and boys are watching! That horrible act silliness. But I think I haven’t had that emotional adore for a lady, which isn’t saying it could never occur to me, but I ponder I’m more of an Emily t
