So Anna Kendrick has read Bechloe fan fiction. Here’s what she says about fans who ship her with Brittany Snow:
“I love it! I couldn’t be more excited about it. In the first movie when we were doing the scenes I was like, ‘This is entering sketchy town and I love it, that’s where I live, that’s my home, is in sketchy town.’ Then we just kind of leaned into it and in the second one-I don’t know, it’s a weird combination in the second one where there’s moments where you’re like, ‘Oh, come on! That’s a perfect opportunity for a BeChloe moment’ and then there’s stuff where like, ‘Oh, that’s gonna blow those chicks’ minds’ Because some chicks are really into it and I’m like, ‘Dope! I love it!’ the fanfiction and all of it.”

And in June, out writer/producer/star Jennifer Howd will star in Devon’s Diary: The True Account of a Fictional Life. The show “blurs the line between fiction and reality as Jennifer takes on the self-referential persona of queer, 20-something writer/DJ, Devon, struggling to string the semi-fictionalized events of her life together into a coherent, multi-disciplinary solo performance piece.” The premiere will be at The New Collective in Los Angeles on June 26.
