Anna Kendrick: Oscar Reaction!

Anna Kendrick was almost rendered speechless on Tuesday morning (February 2) when she found out she had been nominated for an Oscar.

The 24-year-old actress, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, issued in a statement, “I am thrilled beyond words to be nominated with these talented and inspiring women. Being involved in a film as special as Up in the Air was a dream come true. I am overwhelmed and honored by this nomination and am so grateful to be able to share this experience with George [Clooney], Vera [Farmiga] and [director] Jason [Reitman].”

JJJ loves the fact that when previously polled at MTV, Anna only scored 1% in a poll which asked readers who of the Twilight cast was most likely to be nominated for an Oscar first. Robert Pattinson was chosen as the winner.

Anna even shared a celebratory drink and dinner with a few pals at the RH restaurant at the Andaz Hotel in West Hollywood.

Personal Quotes: I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I love his every single mannerism. I used to try and be him in virtually everything I did, I don't know why. I watched One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) when I was about 13, and I dressed like him. I tried to do his accent. I did everything like him.I have been playing the piano for my entire life - since I was three or four. And the guitar - I used to play classical guitar from when I was about five to 12 years of age.

My favorite teacher was probably my English teacher because she got me into writing instead of just answering the question. I used to hand in homework with 20 pages of nonsense and she'd still mark it. She was a really amazing teacher.

I wasn't at all focused on school, and I didn't achieve much. But I've got a sense of urgency now. I feel I can't let any more time waste away.

Personal Quotes: I love it because I love to tell stories. I like being in movies that have a great story.

I don't want to make movies for kids, and I don't want to make movies for adults either.

You should have the opportunity to be more than one person with different people - because you have that within you.

The pictures help the writing. I mean, I want to make books. I want to take pictures and then write all over the pictures. And then I don't have to say a complete story, because I have the picture, and I have just a word.

I cannot describe how good it feels to actually have something that is truly into your heart and soul actually affecting people. And that's amazing. So that's the biggest change.
