We all know how important snack time is. Heck, I can’t function through the entire day without something to munch on in the late afternoon. It’s even more important for kids to get a snack, and actress/mom of two, Jennifer Garner, has teamed up with Save the Children charity and Frigidaire to help make sure kids everywhere are getting the healthy snacks that their little bodies need. I sat down with Jennifer so she could give us the scoop on this awesome organization. (more…)

Maggie Rodriguez talks to the actress about her work as Artistic Ambassador for “Save the Children.”

Jennifer Garner has been dumped on Valentine’s Day, started dating someone on Valentine’s Day, and – not surprisingly – has received her fair share of flowers – some from her husband of four years, fellow actor Ben Affleck.

“I do like to get flowers,” Garner says. “I’m a real sucker if somebody sends me a beautiful bouquet with a thoughtful card.

“I always tell Ben, ‘You underestimate how much I care about this stuff.’ ” (more…)

Jennifer Garner may be one of the nicest people in Hollywood.

I first met her on the set of “Daredevil,” where I attempted to carry on a normal conversation with her even as a wardrobe assistant used a rag to buff every inch of her shiny skintight leather costume to a high shine. The fact that she didn’t file a restraining order against me is a testament to just how well I was able to maintain my professional focus, but come on… I’m only human. Even as she gets older, even after having kids, Garner still exudes a simple sweetness in person that is about more than her coltish cheerleader-next-door looks. There’s something decent about her, something almost reserved. She seems just plain too nice to be a Hollywood professional. (more…)

We had a chance to gab with actress Jennifer Garner as they were moving things around in preparation for the second set-up of the day of essentially the same scene between her and Rob Lowe.

ComingSoon.net: I think we got the general premise of this movie in that everyone tells the truth, which seems like a very dangerous world. But no one ever gets mad. We never see any reactions to being told the truth.
Jennifer Garner: Yeah, it’s kind of just taken for granted that you’re going to see some truthful things throughout the day. Everyone understands that they dish it and they take it. (more…)

Jennifer Garner celebrated her 37th birthday on April 17th by sitting down for a full day of press for “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past,” which opens Friday. A BOSTON HERALD feature ran Tuesday.
Just before I went into the suite, a nanny came by with a stroller and the newest addition to the family, bright-eyed two months old Seraphina Rose who was sucking on a pacifier. Garner, in a Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress, is the opposite of what you might imagine as high maintenance, very poised and low key. Like her husband Ben Affleck she has a sly sense of humor. Here is more from the one on one sitdown at L.A.’s Luxe Hotel. (more…)

ComingSoon.net talked to McConaughey and Garner about their new roles in the Mark Waters-directed film:

Q: Do you feel a particular connection to Connor or is it because it’s such a well written role?

Matthew McConaughey: I probably have to go with the second one but it really was a well written role. You usually don’t get to start off with, or I don’t get to start off playing a lead male that has such an opinion one way that’s crass and brash and not pandering where you’re going, “oh don’t say that! He didn’t just say that. Wait, is he saying that here?” To then, go through the story, learn some lessons and come out the other side the next day and it’s a new man. A guy that has lost his way and then finds his way and still has a journey to get his brother’s love back and then look up and still have his childhood love there for a second chance. It was a long way to go and our ways to get there; we had great elements to the story that helps us go there. It’s this ghost who would scare the hell out of me. And it’s comedic. In one night, ghosts visiting you, can really move your floor and change you a hell of a lot better than one night sitting down or one year of sitting down and going through therapy or something. (more…)

JG: Let’s talk about him [Matthew] before he comes.

Question: What can you tell us about him?
JG: It’s just embarrassing to talk about him when he’s here, so if you want to ask, do it now.

Question:How was it working with him?
JG: It was great. He’s like the nicest best guy, such a brilliant actor and I really, really liked him. I hope I get to work with him again!

Q:Was he that charming, as he was in the film?
JG: Yeah, he is, he really is [Mathew enters room now]…he really is a charming, smart, funny, nice guy who has a good sense of humor about himself. Good, I’m all done. I told them if you want me to talk about him, do it before he’s here.

Q:Jennifer, reflect on motherhood now with the second one at home?
JG: Same thing but crazier…no, everything is going really well, thank you very much. Everybody is happy, healthy and it feels like it’s only one more but it feels like three more…I don’t know if you any of you…yeah, okay, good – then you know what I mean. (more…)

Giving the style a boho edge, she worked the statement accessories, added a pop of colour with a jade drop necklace, multiple gold bangles, and bejewelled earrings.
