The actress appeared as a guest on Conan O'Brien's show in early 2014 and recounted a moment from the Grammy Awards when Perry stuck her fingers down her cleavage. "Katy Perry stuck her fingers down my cleavage. It was a weird night," she said, prompting laughter from the audience. While Conan O'Brien was briefly taken aback, the actress added, "She's very mature." At the time, it was all presented as a joke, but now the clip is being shared again on social media. Kendrick described the encounter as unexpected but not uncomfortable. When the host asked her to clarify what happened, she joked that her dress that night had somehow invited it. Recalling her meeting with Perry, she also mentioned that she had met her before and liked her "aggressive" demeanor. The video of the interview resurfaced after actress Ruby Rose accused Katy Perry of sexually assaulting her in a nightclub nearly 20 years ago.
