Anna Kendrick Was Honored to Be Mistaken for Anna Kournikova
To an informed viewer, there might be a few basic similarities between actress Anna Kendrick and retired tennis star Anna Kournikova. The same first name. The same last initial. That's...about it, actually. (Go, Anna Ks!) But that didn't prevent Yahoo News from accidentally publishing a photo of Kendrick to accompany an article about Kournikova and her husband Enrique Iglesias sharing the first photo of their newborn twins. And Kendrick was more than happy to reap the benefits of this editorial mistake, mostly to ogle at the handsomeness of Iglesias.
"Dear Yahoo: how do I get to this timeline where I've slept with Enrique Iglesias please and thank you," she joked on Twitter last night, alongside a screenshot of the article. "I realize the confusion probably came from the two Anna K names, but she's a tall blonde athlete and I'm—oh, oh—do they think I'm the baby?"
Many of Kendrick's Twitter followers also thought the name mix-up was humorous, with one follower joking that the next "Anna K" faux-pas would come, thanks to Anna Karenina, the protagonist in Leo Tolstoy's seminal novel. "I would love that! So romantic," Kendrick responded. "So lush. (I only read half that book; I hope nothing bad happens.)"
Or what about a certain character in Jean-Luc Godard's movies?
Google "Anna K" and the possibilities are endless, people.
