Better Than the Movie Itself: Anna Kendrick Roasts Blake Lively with Savage One-Liners Nonstop!

Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively’s chemistry in A Simple Favor might have been electric on screen, but what truly captivated fans happened off-screen — in interviews, press junkets, and red carpet appearances.

What started as a lighthearted promo tour turned into a goldmine of savage comedy, with Anna Kendrick roasting Blake Lively at every turn.

Their banter, quick wit, and relentless teasing quickly went viral, giving fans the kind of behind-the-scenes entertainment that, frankly, upstaged the actual film.

It all started innocently enough, with a few quips about Hogwarts houses.

Both actresses are self-proclaimed Harry Potter fans, but Anna wasn’t going to let Blake slide with a generic Gryffindor claim.

“Obviously I got Slytherin,” Anna said proudly, before side-eyeing Blake and sarcastically commenting on her “Gryffindor-colored outfit.

” Then came the ultimate burn: Blake admitted to getting sorted at the Universal Studios attraction — “She needed it,” Anna smirked.

The friendly digs didn’t stop there.

Whether it was their shared love for Disney or debates over who was the bigger Harry Potter fan, Anna was quick to spin every topic into a hilarious roast.

One of the most viral moments came when Anna joked about Blake’s career, saying, “I assume Blake has lost many roles to my glamour, beauty, and elegance.

” She didn’t even blink.

The deadpan delivery, mixed with Blake’s stunned laughter, sent fans into a frenzy.

She followed up with, “If it weren’t for my singing voice, she wouldn’t have a career.

” Blake could barely hold it together.

The way Anna blends sarcasm with confidence makes it impossible to tell where the joke ends and the roast begins — and that’s exactly why people can’t get enough.

Anna also poked fun at Blake’s fairytale image, particularly her stint as Cinderella.

“Oh, I would literally skin her and step into her body to be Cinderella,” Anna joked, pretending to envy her Disney moment.

But it wasn’t just jealousy — she doubled down, saying she’d need Blake’s voice, too.

“I’ll never be a Disney princess,” she declared dramatically.

This back-and-forth about Disney roles turned into a comedy segment of its own, especially when Blake explained that you can’t be a Disney princess in the parks if you’re over 27 or taller than 5’7″.

“So I can still do it,” Anna shot back, triumphant.

The roast-fest wasn’t only limited to fictional characters.

Anna made sure to bring the heat when it came to real-life quirks.

In one moment, she brought up how Blake often gets common phrases wrong.

“She says ‘smooth as pie’ when it should be ‘easy as pie’ or ‘smooth as silk.

’” Blake could only bury her face in embarrassment.

And Anna didn’t let up, rolling her eyes with a grin and muttering, “She gets everything wrong.

” It’s this kind of playful mockery that keeps their dynamic fresh, unpredictable, and downright hilarious.

But perhaps the best part of all this shade is the genuine friendship at its core.

For every roast, there’s a laugh.

For every burn, there’s mutual admiration.

Anna often reassures Blake during interviews, joking that she’s the one who gives her pep talks before public appearances.

“I’m the reason she gets out of bed in the morning,” Anna teased, before mockingly calling herself an “egomaniac.

” Their friendship is clearly built on trust, humor, and the freedom to be brutally honest — all while keeping a straight face and never missing a comedic beat.

Fans have dubbed their press interviews as better than most scripted comedies.

Whether they’re shading each other about Lord of the Rings, debating over Star Wars, or just finding new ways to one-up the last roast, Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively have mastered the art of public trolling — and they’ve done it with charm, wit, and an

authenticity that’s rare in Hollywood.

In an era where every interview feels rehearsed, their banter is a refreshing reminder that some celebrities are just as entertaining off-screen as they are on it.

And in this case, maybe even more so.
