Anna Kendrick's nightclub lie

25 May 2012 8:03 AM, PDT | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »

Anna Kendrick used to pretend she was Ashley Olsen's best friend to get into nightclubs. The 26-year-old actress moved to Los Angeles in her late teens to pursue her Hollywood career, and she admits she used to think it was 'so urgent' to get into a club her friends would lie and say she was friends with the actress-and-designer. She said: 'You start to think it's important to go to nightclubs. It's urgent, almost, that you do it, because there's magic inside! 'Then you get in and there isn't. But you don't learn your lesson. I found it all so weird. You know, someone would tell the door guy that I was Ashley Olsen's best friend, just so we could »

Anna Kendrick: 'It's all about that fatal flaw'

24 May 2012 4:07 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

From ruthless debate-team captain to corporate axe-wielder, Anna Kendrick tells how strident character choices allow her to live out a personal fantasy of assertiveness

It's a shock to find Anna Kendrick curled up in a bathrobe when I enter her hotel suite. On closer inspection, though, the 26-year-old turns out to be beneath the robe, rather than inside it. "I do have clothes on under here," she squeaks. "It's just so cold." She is perky, with subtly Manga-esque features – wide-open eyes and a tiny, expressive mouth – but she hasn't had the most relaxing morning. Whisked to Salford at bleary o'clock to appear on breakfast TV, she got stuck in traffic on the way back to London and hasn't eaten all day, hence the pizza that she begins nibbling on while we talk.

Not that Kendrick would bemoan her lot. "I'm the person who wouldn't send back my food even if »

Sibling Rivalry: Vote for Your Favorite Brothers and Sisters

10 May 2012 7:00 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

They may be brothers and sisters in real life, but in the acting world, sibling actors are often fierce competitors. Sometimes they're even up for the same roles.

You could call these cases of sibling rivalry being played out on the big screen a real family affair, along the lines of "Mom always liked you best."

We've come up with a list of top actors who have competing brothers or sisters. Vote on your favorites of each brother-brother, brother-sister or sister-sister pairing -- and may the best siblings win.

The Wilsons

Luke Wilson: This Wilson brother has had a vibrant career since the mid-'90s, when he hooked up with Wes Anderson for "Bottle Rocket." He's known and loved for comedies like "Legally Blonde" and "Charlie's Angels," but occasionally takes a turn into darker filmic territory like "3:10 to Yuma."

Kim & Kanye: Is It Just A 'Showmance'?

10 April 2012 10:03 AM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »

They’re hot and heavy, but are they for real? Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s whirlwind romance went surprisingly public last week, and has some celebrity experts scratching their heads about whether this pairing is the result of true love, or just a calculated publicity stunt timed to help Kanye sell singles and Kim revamp her public image.

“I certainly hope Kim and Kanye's whirlwind dating isn't merely a ploy to drum up publicity. But it does seem like it's already driven a tremendous amount of interest in Kanye's semi-leaked new single, ‘Theraflu,' in which he raps about falling for Kim and then disses [her ex-husband] Kris Humphries. In which case, the relationship is already proving lucrative publicity-wise,” Hollywood Life Editor-in-Chief Bonnie Fuller told The Huffington Post.

The Olsen Twins' Epic Tyra Banks Diss

9 April 2012 8:54 AM, PDT | TheInsider.com | See recent The Insider news »

While the Olsen twins have never been known to be the nicest, this is just downright cold!

Looks like Ashley and Mary-Kate are not exactly Tyra Banks fans, since they decided to give away their personalized copies of her book Modelland to NYC's Housing Works Bookstore.

"We seem to have gotten a donation of Tyra Banks' 'fantasy novel' Modelland," the bookstore wrote on their Tumblr, "with with one copy for Ashley Olsen and one for Mary-Kate Olsen."

Say What?! The Olsen Twins Say They Quit Acting

Tyra's Post-it dedications to the twins to "Smize!" (for Ashley) and "Stay fierce and fabulous!" (for Mary-Kate) are clearly visible inside the books, making the cavalier giveaway that much more embarrassing.

Housing Works Bookstore then added insult to injury, selling both for the bargain price of $100 -- which only one person bid for and won.
