Anna Kendrick is so "terrified" of weddings, she tries to avoid having single friends.
The 31-year-old actress admits the tiny details women obsess about when it comes to their nuptials would drive her crazy so joked she’s doing all she can to avoid being a bridesmaid for anyone.
She said: "I’ve only been a bridesmaid once.
"I feel like I have made an effort to not have super close female friends because at any given point in my life I have a female friend who’s like, ‘I’m on this email chain and it’s about the nail polish and we’re all going to get the same manicure.’
"I’m, like, so terrified of that that I feel like I’m waiting till girls get married and then we can be really close friends."
And if she does get invited to a wedding, the actress – whose new movie ‘Table 19’ sees her play a bridesmaid who is relegated to guest status when she splits from her boyfriend, the best man, and ends up on a table of misfits – would far rather sit at the back than have a role in the bridal party.
She explained on ‘Today’: "[In the movie] I’m back at that table that nobody should really be focusing on.
"Most wedding movies focus on the bride and the groom. And this is like, ‘Who are those people way in the back who don’t really know anybody and what kind of trouble do they get into?’
"[Where would I want to be at a wedding?] You can get drunk at Table 19 – maid of honour not so much.
"I’d rather be the one that just gets to hang out at the back table, it’s great."
Anna is currently busy shooting ‘Pitch Perfect 3’ and admitted the fact the movie kept getting pushed back meant she "accidentally" took a year off work.
Asked if she ever takes a break, she said: "I did, by accident last year. They kept pushing ‘Pitch Perfect 3’ so I didn’t make a movie last year so I think, starting in a couple of months, you won’t see me in a movie for a long time."
