This almost/sometimes/maybe A list mostly movie actress who is an Academy Award winner/nominee, and not for the super size franchise she was in but everyone forgets. She is also being stalked. The situation is so scary that the actress never travels or goes anywhere without her boyfriend or a bodyguard or friends and has even dwindled her famous social media posts down to nothing for fear the stalker could find her or that she will attract even more stalkers. She has turned herself into a shut in while not working.
Anna Kendrick
She was posting like a champion during the Super Bowl.
ReplyDeleteDidn't Enty have a blind about Anna being a lesbian?? Or did I reading that somewhere else? Anyway, that sucks she's being stalked.
ReplyDeleteThis is upsetting. One of the great things about her is her openness on social media. To have some dickwad ruin that is sad.
ReplyDeleteI wrote about this a little on another post from a week ago or so. Anna has a few stalkers. One of them has been cyberstalking her for a couple years. He's posted all kinds of things on his website and Twitter about her. It started out as stuff you could easily make fun of and think he was just a troll... things like she's in the Illuminati and has connections in the government. Then it started getting a little more scary, and recently he tweet direct threats to her. He list her address and talks about her family by name, and talks about raping her and killing her. He's in Mexico so it's been a bit harder than expected to get him tossed in jail or a mental health facility.
ReplyDeleteThe other guy is from the last year. He's been stalking Anna, but the thing is, he doesn't think he's stalking her. He says he saw this other guy following Anna everywhere. Going from city to city, waiting outside her home, waiting outside her boyfriend's place, her brother's place, her mother's house, and any hotel she's staying at. He tweets about these locations before Anna ever tweets about going to that place, or before any fans post about seeing her on social media. So the guy is going to these places too, but he doesn't see himself as a stalker. He's talked about hiring people to help him follow Anna everywhere to keep her safe from this other stalker. I'd say it's insane and someone with an over active imagination, but several of us have seen these guys showing up in every city she's in. She goes to a restaurant and they're there. She goes to an event, they're in a car watching.
They've showed up too many places for it to be a coincidence. They've gotten better at hiding, but the tweeting can be really scary at times because they're describing things they see that aren't on social media anywhere. It's stressed her out big time, but she's trying her best to try and brush it off. She's had a few times over the last few months where she goes a week or more without tweeting or posting on Instagram, but someone told her she shouldn't stop because it will show the stalkers that she notices them. These experts think that the stalkers will see any change in her habits as a sign that she knows about them. That she's reading what they post, that she sees them at these places. She's contact the authorities, but these guys are really good at walking the line between legal and illegal. It's a horrible situation, but she's trying to keep working and keep going to do interviews and press events. It's keeping her busy and she's been trying to tweet a bit more to try and show they aren't getting to her.
Sorry for the long post. If anyone sees people that seem like stalkers on any social media, talking about following her, or threatening her, please email me at a gmail account I made... quickdrawmcgraw4444@gmail.com Thank you!
That's for the story about what is happening w/ her. That is awful! Living in fear is no way to live. I hope they catch these creeps.
ReplyDelete**Thanks"" -- not That's
ReplyDeletesad story...I guess she won't do a "Keanu Reeves"
ReplyDeleteNo I don't see that happening with her. She's pretty good about not dating completely psychotic people!
ReplyDeleteIt's really awful. I wish it were a Keanu situation like Slim Shady mentioned, but I don't see it turning out that way.
ReplyDeleteCan someone be hired to tail them after they show at one of her interviews? They can most likely get them for something else or at least put the fear of god in them.
ReplyDeleteBreaks my heart, she's my girl crush and just seemed so cool and above the celebrity bs. I feel bad for her. I remember telling my mom when I was little that I wanted to grow up and be famous and she told me that I wanted to be rich, not famous - guess she was right about something.
ReplyDeleteI would think she could do that. But it can be costly! Anna's in a lot of indie movies and she's usually the third or fourth lead in the big budget movies she does. Personal experience is that after the agent, publicist, and manager she's not getting anywhere near as much as people would think. It really could be a case where she wants to hire someone but doesn't have the funds that would be needed to track each stalker down.
ReplyDeleteNon-famous people can have stalkers too. The fame can certainly draw more stalkers but it still happens to "regular" people. As for Anna, I've met her a few times and she has always been very nice to me. I dated a girl that worked with her on a movie and she had nothing but nice things to say. She was really happy that "someone like Anna" was becoming so successful.
ReplyDeleteAnna would get a lot of help on a GoFundMe acct. if this were the situation...she's adored by many of us who'd help protect her!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, right. She is at EVERY party in Hollywood and NY party faintly related to showbiz. C'mon, Enty. Biggest self-promoter of her age group.
ReplyDeletePoor girl, that is a nasty and scary situation. So she self-promotes, so what? It's part of her job. She should talk to George about this crap. A - he has more money than god, B - he knows all about crazy stalkers and C - it's just the kind of thing that would piss him off. He'd help her.
ReplyDeleteShe's not at every party in Hollywood. She's only been in LA a handful of days over the last two months. Just like the blind says, she had been trying to only go out for work and work related things like press events and interviews. In those environments she feels safe, it helps take her mind off of the stalkers. You seem to have a problem with Enty saying she cut back on the social media... she has done it several times. She went two weeks between Instagram posts and she's had week or more breaks between twitter posts over the last 6 months.
ReplyDeleteAnd every party? She misses way more parties than she attends. She went to the Golden Globes, but she's missed every other award show this month. Everything she did in December was a contractual obligation with Disney. No getting out of it. She had to go to several events and do a bunch of interviews to promote Into the Woods. But when she's doing those things that's when she feels safe. It's when she's at home or in a hotel alone that she feels the most scared.
I didn't say that there was anything at all wrong with self-promotion. She has friends on here obviously and I know that she was a regular contributer to this site, especially regarding blinds about the Twilight actors, so that's expected.
ReplyDeleteI am just saying that nothing has been keeping her home cause she is still at nearly every single party.
She's getting advice from a few experts on stalking that her manager recommended. JayJay was right about the cost. It can be real costly to get these guys. But, she did hire someone a while back to look into the guy in Mexico. They found that he was possible schizophrenic, had some problems with his family, like his mother and sister trying to get him placed in mental health facility. The problem with the guy in Mexico is that they have different laws there and they have some far bigger concerns in their country. An actress being cyberstalked is apparently not on the radar screen for Mexican authorities.
ReplyDeleteAs for the guys that are stalking her in the US and everywhere else she goes..... Anna has looked into getting them arrested, getting a restraining order, but her team (manager, agent, publicist,) as well as the experts she's getting advice from are all telling her not to do that. One reason is that the stalkers walk the line between legal and illegal, so she might not be able to actually get a restraining order, (Which doesn't sound right to me. I'm pretty sure I've read about other celebs getting restraining orders in cases like this.) They've told her to go about her day and try not to change her habits, and try to not to show that she's even aware of these guys. Anna's trying, but she's had several moments of being near the edge of a breakdown. When she's with friends, her boyfriend, or at home with her roommate we can all try to keep her mind off of what's happening, but most of the time that's only a very temporary solution. She has someone investigating these newer stalkers but it cost a bit of money, and there is no guarantee that he will be able to find dirt on the guys to get them tossed in jail. I'm just hoping a story like this can show someone that might be going down the road of stalking someone that their actions can cause a lot of hurt, a lot of fear, and can really ruin a person's life. I'm not saying her life is ruined at this point, but if it continues it very well may do that.
Ok, that's it for me! Sorry for the midnight rant!
My question is how do you know so much? Everything that you've said just sounds way too creepy and as if you're involved either within her group of "people" or are part of the people who is stalking her
ReplyDeleteIt's true that she hasn't been at home much. At least in LA. She's been at her boyfriends a lot in NYC, her brother's as well. She's gone to Maine a few times to be with her family for the holidays. But again, she's not going to nearly every single party. She's missed a ton of them over the last few months. She's done a lot of press for Into the Woods, but press events aren't really a party.
ReplyDeleteSo while technically she hasn't been "at home" she has been at her boyfriends a lot, as well as her families places. Most of her time is in hotels though. Also, this blind was from November, a bit has changed since then. She started talking with some experts on stalking to know what she can do to stop them. They said don't change your habits, don't show that they've gotten to you. She's been trying to do that by going out to eat, usually with her boyfriend... basically she's tried to bring her boyfriend everywhere, and if he can't go she tries to have a friend with her.
I'm sure I'm repeating myself a lot! Basically, Enty was right about all of this in November when he posted it. "Home" isn't just her house in LA; it's her boyfriend's place in NYC, her brother's, her parent's places, and hotels that she stays at. In those cases she has stayed indoors a lot more. But over the last month she's been trying to go out a little bit more than she had been doing over the second half of last year.
I really need to not post when it's this late! I repeat myself way too much!
I'm a close friend of hers. I'm sure I've revealed more than I should... but it's painful to see someone you care about stressed out and scared beyond belief. The only thing I can think to do is go online and talk about it with people so that maybe other stalkers will realize that they're harming people when they stalk them.
ReplyDeleteSorry if it sounded creepy. That wasn't what I intended. I'm just at my wits end and hope that people will see this and spread it around in the hopes that someone that could potentially become a stalker one day may read it and think twice. Maybe I'm way to optimistic about potential stalkers reading this and thinking twice, but it's worth a shot.
Really, QuickDraw? You're posting in the hopes of enlightening other stalkers. Is that kind of like 'if going public with my cancer saves one life it will be worth it' kind of thing?
ReplyDeleteStalkers are generally not well. They will generally not read posts such as yours and think 'gee, I hadn't thought of it that way. I'll stop following this person's every move now and just go leans normal life'.
You do realise you kind of sound like a stalker, right? Or possibly a very scared Anna herself.
One of them had mentioned this site recently, as well as in the past. I'll admit now that I sent this blind in back in November. The reason was, as I said, one of the stalkers mentioned this site a few times. I thought that sending in a blind item that was about the stalking to let the stalkers see it and take it as a hint to back off. I now know that I was wrong to think that. Of course they're not going to back off when they've had some kind of mental health issue that makes them think they have a special connection with Anna. But back in November I wasn't thinking clearly and thought it was worth a shot. I used this nickname because one stalker uses the 4444 at the end of his name... I guess I was trying to taunt him or something. I don't know what the hell I was thinking. It seemed like a good idea back then.
ReplyDeleteSo they are checking sites like this out. I'm well aware that they aren't well. I don't think someone currently stalking a person is going to change based on these posts. I'm hoping that someone that might be going down the road of becoming a stalker, (a potential stalker,) might see this and realize that they might be turning into a stalker and stop. Not just people that potentially could stalk Anna, but anyone, famous or non-famous. Once someone becomes a stalker the only thing that could possibly help them is mental health treatment. But someone that hasn't started stalking yet, well maybe this can nudge them in the other direction. So no, I don't think this is going to help Anna with the stalkers she has now. I don't even know if it will change the mind of potential stalkers. But I think it's better to try instead of doing or saying nothing.
I am sorry to everyone if my posts come across as stalkerish. I'm not a stalker. I'm her friend and I've had to watch my friend sit down for dinner only to take a few bites. Not because she has an eating disorder, but because she is so stressed out that she doesn't feel like eating anything. The phone rings and she jumps, someone comes to the door and she's terrified. Maybe I'm being selfish and writing this to vent. I don't think that's why I'm doing this, but I guess I don't know for sure. The good news is that Anna is trying to find the things in life that can make her feel safe so she can relax a bit. And not be so scared that she doesn't want to eat. I commented on a picture of her last week. She actually looks better than she did a month or two ago. Hopefully these guys will make a mistake that will result in them going to jail. That's my hope at least. Maybe my posts aren't helping with current stalkers, and maybe they're not going to nudge someone that might become a stalker away from that path, but at the very least... some people will understand the bad parts of a celebrities life a little better.
OK! I've been awake way too long! Thanks to everyone for your words of support for Anna, I know she greatly appreciates it! Sorry for the long vent sessions too!
I really like her work and wish her well. Hope you're getting some sleep now. ;)
ReplyDeleteNope. Nope. Nope. ANY completely sane friend wouldn't tell the interwebs and all the strangers everywhere who are interested in gossipy things where she is hanging out and the overall impact the stalking is having on her. That isn't "good friend" behavior. At all. Not even close.
ReplyDelete^^^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^^ +10000
ReplyDeleteReading what I posted I don't think I disagree with you at all. In my defense, I never said I was completely sane. As for the places she's hanging out, I didn't give addresses. She's taken pics and posted them on Instagram of her mother's place in Maine. I didn't say where in NYC her boyfriend lives. Looking at what I've posted I know I said some things I probably shouldn't have. But I'm at a loss and feel like I haven't been able to help my friend. Like I said in another post, I'm realizing that this is all selfish of me. I wanted to vent about this whole situation, but I lied to myself and said I was doing it to help Anna. But I think I was really doing it to give myself some peace of mind.
ReplyDeleteFor the record though, Anna approved back in November of sending this blind to Enty. She wasn't talking to experts on stalkers and how to handle them at the time. When we saw the stalkers posting things that mentioned this site that's when we thought maybe this could get them to stop if they know what it's doing to her. Obviously it didn't work. I'm a bit impulsive at times and don't think things through all the way. And of course it's not a good idea to make these types of decisions on very little or no sleep.
I don't really know what else to say. This was all a bad idea on my part. You're right ABC123, I'm not completely sane based on the comments I've made. I didn't think I was giving important details about her life. I guess I thought if I don't give her address, phone number, what she's wearing, what hotels she stays at, where exactly her boyfriend lives, her brother's address, etc. I thought if I don't give those details then I'm not revealing too much.... but based on your comment and re-reading what I posted, well, I was wrong. I'm sorry everyone for taking up so much space with my venting. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go have a very awkward conversation about how much of an idiot I am.
(Sprink, I got a tiny bit of sleep. Better than none!)
That was my question too, Claire. And QuickDraw is her friend? if so, would she really appreciate someone going on about the things she's not supposed to be letting the stalkers know, thereby letting the stalkers know if they were to read this? Hmmm. QuickDraw is sounding a bit stalkerish him/herself.
ReplyDeleteJust to clarify: my ^^THIS^^ refers to ABC123 NOT to the other!!!!
ReplyDeleteGeez... how do you know all of this?
ReplyDeleteThis QuickDraw person sounds completely psycho and actually makes me wonder if he/she is the person who goes everywhere Anna goes, etc. WTF? Sending in blind items?
ReplyDeleteQuickdraw, you do sound a little "out there" to be honest. I don't doubt Anna has stalkers. I don't doubt that she has friends that go on gossip sites to defend her. The thing is, when friends do that they usually don't talk in depth about what the celeb is going through. Your last post seemed a little more rational and truthful about your intentions, so maybe you're friend that needs a little sleep and some time away from a keyboard. If you are one of Anna's stalkers, then please seek help and leave her alone. She doesn't know you, she doesn't like you, and you're not helping her in any way, shape or form.
ReplyDeleteQuickdraw, do your friend a favor and shut the fuck up a little. You're posting too much information. Stop it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Anna Kendrick has seen all this by now. If "Quickdraw" is really a friend of hers, she'll make him shut the hell up.
ReplyDeleteI call BS on this QuickDraw person. Friend my ass.
ReplyDeleteCatching up on this a few weeks late (I'm on and off with sites like this), and I just wanted to say that while I have no idea about "QuickDraw", everything he/she wrote about Anna's Mexican stalker is completely legitimate. I have never met Anna or anyone in her circle, but I (and others from a different site) have known about this loony for over a year (since mid-'13, if memory serves).
ReplyDeleteI could tell you his name, his screen name, some of his claims (that QuickDraw didn't mention), and show you screencaps to back up what I'm saying. He communicated several times with Ben Richardson before Anna was even dating (or claiming to date) Ben. I didn't realize he'd moved on to making direct threats about Anna, but his earlier postings were laced with complaints that Anna was threatening *him* so I'm sadly not surprised that he's moved on from claiming he'll "expose" her to making physical threats.
So I don't know Anna, I don't know "QuickDraw", and I don't know anything about the changes in her private life that QuickDraw claims to have seen…but the Mexican guy is real, and really nuts, and Quickdraw certainly isn't making that part up. Just my $.02
Quick Draw,
ReplyDeleteIf the expert advising Anna says she shouldn't acknowledge the whack jobs stalking her, why would you do so repeatedly with your posts? I'll take you at your word that she's your friend. Sorry to say it, but I doubt you actually helped.
QuickDraw is full of shit. so much here that is false.
ReplyDelete"Anna’s trying, but she’s had several moments of being near the edge of a breakdown."
how the hell would you ever even know someting like that? only her boyfriend and maybe her closest friend would ever know such a thing, and they would NEVER make it public. you are not a friend of hers. and how would you ever know who Anna has hired to look into things? you wouldn't be privy to any information like that. that kind of thing she wouldn't even tell friends. you yourself sound like a stalker.
ABC123 said. "Nope. Nope. Nope. ANY completely sane friend wouldn’t tell the interwebs and all the strangers everywhere who are interested in gossipy things where she is hanging out and the overall impact the stalking is having on her. That isn’t “good friend” behavior. At all. Not even close."
that about sums it up. QuickDraw is a creepy fan/stalker. no friend of Anna's would ever write the stuff he's written in here.
