Anna Kendrick was concerned with one thing when filming her steamy kissing scene with Blake Lively: how was her breath?
Thankfully, both actresses were minty-fresh when they locked lips for their new thriller A Simple Favor, as the 33-year-old explained to PrideSource:
“I mean, all I’m ever thinking about in [kissing] scenes is, who has gum? Who has a mint? And I think Blake is probably the same because I’ve never experienced a guy, searching for gum. So, we were the mintiest, freshest two people to have ever kissed in the history of America.”
Good to know!

Lively may have been the freshest of Kendrick’s same-sex kissing partners, but she wasn’t the first. Kendrick got candid about her own sexuality and admitted to kissing a few women off screen over the years, dishing:
“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 performance silliness.”
But don’t get too excited, ladies:
“But I think I haven’t had that emotional love for a lady, which isn’t saying it could never happen to me, but I think I’m more of an Emily than a Stephanie.”
She’s emotionally straight! But that doesn’t mean Kendrick isn’t down for a full-on lesbian relationship in her films.

In fact, the actress tried to appease Pitch Perfect fans who wanted her character Becca to be in a relationship with Brittany Snow’s character Chloe by filming an ending where the two actually got together!
She revealed:
“I definitely wanted to have an ending that was a Bechloe ending, and we did shoot one version where Brittany and I tricked everybody into just shooting one that was just the two of us getting together… We knew it was a long shot. It meant so much to us that there was this following around their latent relationship and, yeah, I thought it would’ve been really cool if it would have ended up coming to fruition in the end. If we ever do a [fourth film], I will fight tooth and nail for it, but I’m not sure it’s gonna happen.”
At least we get to see her make out with Ryan Reynolds’ wife when A Simple Favor hits theaters September 14.
