In an all-new interview with Glamour Magazine, Hollywood 'It' girl Anna Kendrick reveals that she is happy she is not known as a striking beauty and is very comfortable with her image as a "normal" girl.

"The thing is, my appearance -- that's never been my moneymaker. I'm fine being small. I'm fine being all the things I am," the 28 year old shares. "And I'm happy I'm not supposed to be on the 50 Most Beautiful list all the time, because that would be super f**king stressful."

The actress also shares her frustration with being constantly in the limelight. "Sometimes I just want to wear the same outfit for three days in a row," says the petite star. "And I kind of can't."
