Despite the recent confusion, Anna Kendrick did not just welcome twins with Spanish singer-songwriter Enrique Iglesias. But the Russian tennis player Anna Kournikova sure did!
A recent news story published by Yahoo! used the wrong image for the story about Iglesias and Kournikova sharing their first photos of the twins. The feature image portrays Anna Kendrick, not Anna Kournikova.
The “Pitch Perfect” star joked around about the mix-up on Twitter. Kendrick tweeted “How do I get to this timeline where I’ve slept with Enrique Iglesias? Please and thank you.”

Ultimately, the tweet got over 59,000 likes and 14,000 retweets. An hour later, Kendrick continued to have a little fun with the mix-up. In this follow-up tweet, Kendrick joked that maybe Yahoo! thought she was the baby of Kournikova and Iglesias!
I realize the confusion probably came from the two Anna K names, but she's a tall blonde athlete and I'm – oh, oh – do they think I'm the baby?

According to reports, Kournikova (not Kendrick, haha) gave birth to twins Nicholas and Lucy on December 16, 2017 in Miami Florida. The pair – who are known for their privacy – kept the pregnancy a secret until a few weeks before the due date.
As for the new arrivals, the new mom and dad shared a sweet pic with the same caption, ‘My Sunshine’, while spending time with one of the babies each.
Watch out Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, Alexander and Ella Clooney, and all the other adorable celebrity twins. These new babies on the blocks are definitely out to steal our hearts!
