Anna Camp has unusual acting skill
Published in Entertainment News
Anna Camp has joked she only gets acting jobs because she can "puke" on demand.
The Bride Hard actress has vomited in "almost every" one of her jobs, and she claimed her ability to do is listed on her CV as one of her special talents.
She told Entertainment Weekly: "I have puked in almost everything I've ever done. I've puked on stage. I puked in a pilot that didn't go anywhere. I obviously puked in Pitch Perfect.
"I puke in [Bride Hard]. I puked in a couple other independent films that I've done. I don't know why people look at me and they're like, 'Wow, that girl, she can puke. If we need to hire an actress to puke, get Anna Camp...
"It's actually at the top of my résumé. It says, 'Puking for hire.' "
The film reunites Anna with her Pitch Perfect co-star Rebel Wilson and the pair have been keen to collaborate again for some time.
Rebel said: "Anna's so great, she's always working on other projects. She's such a versatile actress, can do any genre.
"I always thought, weirdly, I'd love to do something on stage with her, because we both come from being stage actresses, but then this came up and we're like, we've got to get Anna in one of the roles."
Anna added: "I immediately read the script and I was like, I have to play Betsy. We have to play besties. We're such good friends in real life that I felt like it would be a perfect crossover to being on screen."
Rebel joked: "I was like, whoa, okay, great. Let me just cancel the other famous actress who had originally been offered that role."
Anna was recently seen in the fifth and final season of You and she previously admitted she asked for "double the money" when she was hired as identical twins Raegan and Maddie Lockwood.
She told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six column: "As soon as I got the call, I said, 'Well, I'm going to have to learn double the lines, will I get double the money?'
"They said, 'No,' but I did ask. I had to ask!"
The 42-year-old star didn't mind too much about the lack of extra pay because she had seen other actors juggle dual roles in the past and was excited to finally try the "challenge".
She said: "Just to finally be on set and learn both sets of lines and get both hair and makeup done and both wardrobe changes -- I mean, it was something that was really exciting for me, a challenge."
