AceShowbiz - Anna Kendrick is not interested in becoming like Taylor Swift. The "Pitch Perfect" actress says in a new interview that she couldn't be "the perfect Miss America" like the "Out of the Woods" songstress.
"I'd be terrible at being like Taylor Swift, the perfect Miss America version of interacting with fans and making sure they have a good experience," Anna tells Net-A-Porter's The Edit, "I mean, I don't want people to meet me and have it f**k up their day, but I'm glad I can say something weird to them and they know that's just me."
"I could play Madame Bovary and I'd still end up being dry and cynical. There are times where someone will be like, 'Do that thing! You know, do your thing!' I get mildly annoyed by that. But on a greater scale, I'm lucky that's [my] reputation; when I'm snarky with people, they know that's just how I communicate," she continues.
Anna says award show gives her anxiety. "There was never a point where I was like, 'If I could just be in a room with a bunch of famous people, that would be great,' " she explains, "So I'm not surprised that I find myself riddled with anxiety over award shows and stuff."

In a 2014 MTV News interview, Anna discussed Taylor and her rival Katy Perry. When asked which of the two singers she preferred, the "Twilight" actress chose Katy, citing her "boobs."
Anna's "Pitch Perfect" co-star Anna Camp, meanwhile, thought Taylor "would make a great Bella" in "Pitch Perfect 3", telling E! News last year, "I think it would be an even bigger movie!"
