Jennifer Garner has posted a video to Instagram featuring clips from her daily workout session with celebrity trainer Simone De La Rue and another unknown trainer whom she refers to as ?stunt team.? It looks like she?s doing kickboxing-type exercises with that guy. Her workouts total two and a half hours, which sounds excessive but she’s training for a film. She also had some kind of cryotherapy or very cold body treatment, she claims she does it for three minutes. That looks like torture to me. She set the clips to a snippet of Jamiroquai?s ?Canned Heat? from 1999. She started the post with ?Recipe for Turning A Mom Back into Action Lady? with caps like that as if it was a title. Here?s her post. Who did she hire to edit this video?
Recipe for Turning A Mom Back into Action Lady: Take one mama ADD daily dose 1 hr ?? @bodybysimone ?? 1.5 hr ??Stunt Team ?? 50 cups of coffee and 3 min Cryotherapy Good luck everybody!

I’ve never heard of Yes Day until now but it’s a concept based on a 2009 best selling children’s book by of the same name by Amy Krouse Rosenthal. Yes Day, a day in which you don’t say no to your kids, sounds quite unnecessary to me. The explanation is that ?no matter how silly the request, there is one day a year when kids always receive a positive response.? Apparently you set limits though, you can deny a request in a positive way, and it’s about being present for them while doing things they like. There?s a national Yes Day, that’s designated way too close to Christmas on December 19th, but of course you can do it whenever is convenient for your family. Jennifer Garner decided to do it for her kids last week, I think for the fifth time as she indicated in hashtags, and she shared this makeup free selfie from the tent where she slept with her kids.
You?ll never need coffee more than the day after ?Yes Day!?. #fiveyearsrunning #wesleptinatent #inthebackyard #coffeeismyyesday #yesday #nationalcoffeeday #imgettingthehangofhashtags (?Yes Day!"– a fantastic children's book by @missamykr)

I’m actually surprised that it took Jennifer Garner so long to get in on the celebrity lifestyle business. Her buddy Jessica Biel’s family restaurant venture isn’t going too well though so maybe she wanted to bide her time and find the perfect side project. Garner announced on Instagram earlier this week that she’s co-founded an organic baby food subscription service called Once Upon a Farm. (Am I an a-hole for rolling my eyes at that company name?) It seems like “co-founded” is being used loosely as Once Upon a Farm has existed since 2015 and Garner joined this year, but maybe it accurately describes her role. Here’s Garner’s announcement on Instagram.
For all the Mamas– I am excited to announce my role as co-founder of @onceuponafarm! Wait until you get to know us, Cassandra (Earth Mama), Ari (Mr. President) and John (Brains with a Heart) and yours truly are going to work our tails off to bring your family fresh whole foods, from our farms to your table. I?m so nervous, I hope you love us as much as we love you. XXX

Jennifer Garner testified on Capitol Hill on Thursday to advocate for early childhood education, a cause with which she’s been involved for years. She’s a trustee for Save The Children and spoke about seeing childhood poverty and neglect firsthand in her work with the organization. She said, in part, that “Poverty dulls the senses, it saps hope, it destroys the will.” She was calling for an increase in funding for education, which we know isn’t going to happen under the criminals currently in power. That’s all I’ll say about that right now because if I start to include details I will get stabby. Fingers crossed that we don’t have to deal with this madness for much longer.
Garner’s estranged husband, Ben Affleck, of course announced last week that he completed rehab, although there were no details about how long it was. In Affleck’s statement he called Garner his “coparent,” credited her with caring for their children while he sought help, and said that he was getting sober in order to be a better parent. People published a story recently with some insider quotes claiming that Garner is very happy. There’s very little to these quotes but I guess we can read between the lines that it’s easier dealing with Affleck when he’s not drinking. People is commenting on new photos of Garner on set in Atlanta, which you can see on their site:
Garner, 44, was spotted on set of Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda ? where a source told PEOPLE the actress was in great spirits.
?I have never seen her look so happy before,? the insider said.
[From People]
The rest of the story is about the movie, which tells the story of a 16 year-old boy who is blackmailed by a classmate for being gay. There are also the older quotes from Affleck about completing rehab. So is People just looking at those photos and saying “she looks happy” or did her PR person tell them to say it? Because it feels like we’re supposed to speculate and assume this isn’t a plant, but come on it is. I’m glad she’s happy though. Affleck looks really happy too! He’s actually smiling in paparazzi photos, even in the rain. Hecate lives in LA and she told me it was pouring yesterday, but here’s Affleck out with his daughters looking super pleased to be caught out in the rain. Someone was holding an umbrella for him and I wonder if that was a photographer. Whatever is going on with him, his sheepish grin makes it seem like he’s just as happy as Garner. It’s Spring! Bring on the flowers and the impeachment hearings, not necessarily in that order.

Jennifer Garner was the host at the Save The Children Illumination Gala Tuesday night, an organization she’s worked with for years, with a focus on children in her home state of West Virginia. She wore a simple but elegant strapless gown with what looks like a navy blue velvet bodice (although maybe its black and I’m being thrown off by the lighting) and a black taffeta skirt. Her diamond jewelry is to die for.
In red carpet interviews ahead of the event, Garner talked about raising her children to be responsible adults and to give back. She said that she and Ben try to lead by example and that while kids can be selfish she hope that she’s instilling values in them. Some of her comments were similar to interviews she’s given in the past and it’s clear that these are issues which are important to her.
“I’ve worked with Save [the Children] for the last eight years, and my whole heart is here. So obviously having all these people show up, it’s the only time in my life where I see people with cameras and think, ‘Thank you. I’m so glad you came. Thanks for coming.’”
“It’s so important that you model for your kids how to be a citizen of the world, and I think that’s the very best thing you can do…
That’s really important at home, to make sure that our kids know that we both have causes that we care so much about? that we dedicate time, resources, and our energy toward making our own little slice of the world a little bit better.” – From ET Online
“I think teaching your kids anything is a lifelong job and certainly values are something?you cant just say, ‘Here, have values!’ You have to show them that you have values.”
“The most important thing is just modeling at this age. When they’re older, they’ll hopefully travel with us and go to places and be boots on the ground, but for right now, it’s just really important to both of us that they see and appreciate the work we do.” – From E Online
[From ET Online From E Online]
Garner reminds me a lot of Kristen Bell in that Kristen says similar things about teaching her kids that they’re part of a larger world and they need to give back. It’s a nice sentiment to hear from a celebrity particularly. Unlike Bell, Garner’s message on photographers and paparazzi seems to be a mixed one. She’s spoken out and campaigned against the paparazzi, like Bell, but she does seem happy to use the paparazzi when it suits her. So I’m not really buying her line about only being happy to see photographers at charity events. Still, props to her for her charity work and for being a hands-on mom and a caring person.

Jennifer Garner campaigned for Hillary Clinton yesterday afternoon with a rally at the University of Nevada. She helped students register to vote, you can see a short video of her interacting with students above, and she was very friendly and enthusiastic. It was fun to see. You can watch a longer video of her appearance including her speech below. Garner shows up at about 2:00 minutes in and everyone cheers and starts freaking out. The person who posted the video notes that about 100 people turned out to see her, although it looks like more in the video. After this Garner went to the local Democratic office.
Here are highlights from the speech Garner gave, which you can see around 4:00 in the video below. She emphasizes that the deadline for registering to vote in Nevada is tomorrow (which is today!) and that students should ask their friends to register as well. She’s very comfortable speaking to the crowd and is a knowledgeable advocate for Hillary.
Have you all been bugged incessantly by people begging you to come out and get the vote and make sure you’re registered and ready to go? Well count me in because I’m going to say the same thing, except this time I’m going to say the deadline is now. You’re almost done, we’re going to get to the end of this election, sorry you’re going to school in a swing state but that’s how it is. The deadline is tomorrow to register on paper. We have people here with clipboards. I am registering people so you can get in line with me. My [request] is not only you commit to registering and voting yourselves but you commit to finding two friends [to register] and make sure you get it done. We do have a say, it does matter, that’s why we’re all here bugging you.
Let’s remember what we are looking for here. We are looking for kids whose parents make less than $125,000 a year being able to go to this great institution here for free. We are for someone who is going to raise minimum wage, who is going to help you afford to raise your babies so that you can go to work, who’s going to help make sure that your kids have universal pre-K which is something you may not care about now but trust me it’s important, and that is Hillary Rodham Clinton and I’m excited and proud to be here standing up for her… I’ll take selfies up the wazoo with anyone who stands in my line [to register].
[From YouTube video]
I’m a registered Democrat and signed up to volunteer so I’ve been called quite a few times by my local office. Last night I agreed to go in to make calls the day before the election, when people are probably going to be so sick of getting calls, but we have to do it! We have to make sure everyone has a ride to the polls and that everyone gets a chance to vote. Yes Hillary will probably win in a landslide, but it’s going to be because we all did our part and didn’t get complacent. It’s important this year. Good for Garner for doing her part! This really made me warm to her.
If you haven’t registered to vote yet you can do so online at IWillVote.com until October 18th. Time is running out and the deadline is very soon so if you’re not registered yet do it now!
Garner also emphasized that you can vote early, which I’m really considering because I’m just so nervous about this election. I want to get it over with and will feel a sense of closure once I’ve voted.
Oh and Garner was spotted out walking with Ben Affleck yesterday morning before heading to Reno and before he had The Accountant premiere. You can see those pics on JustJared.
Here’s the longer video. Her speech is at 4:00!

Jennifer Garner was out with one of her workout buddies earlier this week getting coffee in their gym clothes. She was surrounded by paparazzi and was in a playful mood. At the beginning of the video above you can hear her say to a paparazzo “Brad and I are dating.” It’s unclear what question he asked but I would assume he loudly inquired whether she was was dating someone and she didn’t just volunteer that information out of nowhere.
The guy asks incredulously “You’re dating Brad Pitt?”
“Isn’t that great, yay?”
“Oh my God, that’s insane. Ben must cry himself to sleep every night.”
Then Garner rejoins her friend and they laugh about it, with her friend saying “Oh no. Make it stop.”
The two walk to their black Range Rover and the paparazzi yells “Congratulations on you and Brad.”
The rest of the video is just the two of them headed to their gym, Body by Simone, and then leaving the gym afterwards. (Sidenote: I have only done this workout once and it’s insane.)
After their workout, Garner is asked “Jennifer do you have any advice for Angelina Jolie on her breakup with Brad?” She wisely does not answer that one.
So this is getting major headlines. Is this Garner’s next move for attention after doing a couple of pap walks with Ben right after the Brangelina split or was she just harmlessly joking around? Maybe it’s a little from column A, a little from B, to steal an expression from Kaiser. I know that I’ve said things I thought were funny when out with friends and then later thought, “why did I say that?” but I get social regret often. She was just messing around and she deals with these photographers trailing her every day. It’s got to get old and she was teasing. Maybe if Garner used social media she could issue a statement that she was joking but she’s not on twitter or instagram so that’s not going to happen. She’s old school but she still knows how to get press.
Oh and Huffpo reminds me that Garner made a reference to Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston in her Vanity Fair interview. She said, in reference to her own relationship with Ben and people wanting to see them back together, “When Jen Aniston and Brad Pitt broke up I was dying to see something that said they were getting back together.” Does she hope that Brad stays with Angelina now or is she wiser about what that would entail, since she’s living it? It’s an honest question!
Supposedly these photos were taken on 10/1 (Jen is wearing the colorful pants there) and on 10/2, which is when the video was filmed. She’s wearing the same shirt though. Credit: FameFlynet

These are photos of Jennifer Garner holding a cute baby at an event for Huggies, where they were donating diapers to Baby2Baby. She looks very cute in that denim dress. The Today Show recently published what looks like a new interview with Garner, but I’m confused because they include a video with the story from early August when she was promoting the movie Nine Lives. (Here’s a link to that earlier Today interview, which we covered at the time.) She does reference going back to school so this interview must be new. Garner is promoting her charitable partnership with Huggies. She talked to Today about her family, about technology about being present for her children.
On teaching her kids empathy through example
“I don?t think empathy is something you can drill in someone?s head, You have to have faith that while your kids can seem to be selfish and concerned only about the word ‘mine’ sometimes, overall, they are watching you really carefully, and if you care about other people, they will too. I try to be the best version of myself and to have faith that they?re watching me as carefully when I do something right as they do when I roll through a stop sign.”
On getting Violet, 10, her first computer
“We just had back to school night, and I said afterwards, ‘Do they need a computer?’ They need some kind of device or computer to complete their homework. Our daughter doesn?t have any of those things, and she?s, like, the only kid in the class who doesn’t, apparently,” she said. “So I found an old laptop this weekend for her, and I am kind of panicked about it. She?s not on social media yet ? her school has a no social media policy until 6th grade ? but I know it’s coming soon.”
On spending time with each of her children
“I try to make bedtime sacred, to have some alone time with each kid every night, when it is possible,” she said,”… Except for the nights when it?s not possible. I work, and I have a job that means that sometimes I have to go out at night, and sometimes I need to go out at night just for me.”
[From Today]
Garner has said in the past that her kids don’t have iPads, phones or technology, so it makes sense that she would fret over getting Violet her first computer. My son was online much earlier than that and I think it’s important to use strict parental filters to make sure it’s safe for them on all devices (We use NetNanny), being around while they’re using them and also teaching them the skills and logic to navigate the internet. Oh and no social media.
Also, although Garner talked about Ben in her earlier interview with Today in August, doesn’t she sound like a single mom here? She talked about parenting as if she’s doing it all herself. Ben has said that she does most of the heavy lifting, but he does seem to be a present parent too. This makes it sound more like they’re doing everything separately, which may be the case – apart from school runs.

Note before we get started: Garner’s exact quote according to E! was “There’s no more rich time in a woman’s life than when you’re having babies and when you’re trying to figure out how to parent them and balance everything,” but that would not fit into our headline format.
Jennifer Garner was on the Today Show yesterday, where she was promoting a kids’ film I have barely heard of until now, Nine Lives. It’s about a business mogul whose personality gets trapped inside the body of a cat so he can reconnect with his family (trailer here) and also costars Kevin Spacey and Christopher Walken. It’s the kind of dopey family-friendly movie that Garner usually does, but Kevin Spacey must be hurting for roles. Garner’s interview covered her usual subjects: her family, kids and the paparazzi. I was struck by how much fake hair they put on her, and how Botoxy she looks in motion, but she’s been looking that way for some time. Here’s what she said and you can see the video above. She starts talking around :50.
On the message of the movie
I just love the idea of celebrating the idea that parenting is about time. You can’t buy parenting no matter what. You have to actually get down on the floor and spend some time together.
On her career
I’m really glad that I’m playing moms because there’s no more rich time in a woman’s life than when you’re having babies and when you’re trying to figure out how to parent them and balance everything, and the emotional weight of seeing your children struggle. Whatever it is, there’s so much there to draw from that it feels like I’ve aged into where I should be as far as acting goes. You know what I mean? As far as my career, I feel like I finally fit.
On Samuel hating the paparazzi
He sees them and he says ‘Mom, go out and tell them your son does not like it.’ It kills me.
On helping get privacy laws enacted
Oh my gosh, it is so much better. I really do thank all of the legislatures who saw the wisdom in not allowing paparazzi to lie in wait outside of your school, doctor’s offices, outside of your home.
“As modern families go is your family doing ok?”
We are definitely a modern family, we are doing really well.
You went to Europe recently?
Ben was working in London on Justice League and I felt like, ‘Well, the kids should have that experience.’ He and I are great friends and we just all went en masse. The kids and I had an amazing time, and he worked hard and got to join us for some. I want them to see everything’s OK.
On how they’re a team for the kids
It has to be, you don’t have a choice, it has to be.
[Quotes from video of Today Show and via E! News]
In the video excerpt I saw (the one above), Garner doesn’t say that line about how there’s no richer time in a woman’s life than when she’s having babies. I got that from E!’s recap of the interview. I don’t doubt that she said it, she said something really similar when she was promoting The Odd Life of Timothy Green. Garner said “there?s no deeper want for a woman” than to be a mother. Rereading what I wrote at the time that’s true for her maybe but it’s unfair to claim that it’s a universal experience, as is this. She could have said “for me” and either statement would have been fine though. There are so many childless women, by choice and otherwise, and so many women with children who have a really tough time for various reasons. I would not call having a baby or raising a child the “richest” time. I would call it difficult. What about all the women who have postpartum depression and anxiety? It’s a throwaway comment and to be fair she’s not one of those celebrities who always extrapolates her experiences, she very rarely does that. In these two scant times she’s done it though, it’s been about motherhood. This is what’s important to her and this is why she’s kept her family together no matter what.
Here are some photos from the Nine Lives premiere earlier this week and of Garner out recently.

Jennifer Garner attended the Teen Choice Awards last night in a black strapless sleeveless suit (it looks like a jumpsuit at first but it’s not) with buttons down the front. She’s worn black jumpsuits several times on the red carpet and she loves a black outfit. This look is saved by her styling and jewelry. I really like her bold black and rhinestone (or maybe they’re real) mod earrings and bracelet.

Garner was at the TCAs with her Miracles from Heaven costar, Kiley Rogers, where they won Choice Drama Movie. (A full list of winners is here.) Garner gave a nice acceptance speech about the impact of the movie, which told the true story of a young child being saved from a digestive disorder after a fall from a tree. She ended with a message for sick kids “All the kids who are in a hospital waiting for a miracle, don’t give up hope!” You can read more of her speech on People.com.
Laverne Cox was also all in black, in a v-neck Michael Costello jumpsuit with a Chloe belt. This is another case of an decent outfit elevated with pretty styling, although I don’t know if I like her hair that long length. Laverne and her Rocky Horror costar, Victoria Justice (who was also co-hosting along with John Cena) sprayed Cena with water bottles on stage as they discussed the plot of the show. Laverne retweeted a gif of that moment. The Rocky Horror Picture Show, which is a TV film remake of the 1975 classic (it isn’t being broadcast live like so many other musical remakes), will air on October 20th.
Here’s Sarah Hyland representing Modern Familyin J Mendel. There’s something off about this dress, like it needs to be let out a little in the bodice. It also looks like it’s made with very heavy fabric, as if it’s a dress for the winter that someone cut short. Maybe I’m just being thrown off by the pleating. I do like the bright blue and red print.
Gina Rodriguez looks so different that I didn’t recognize her at first! She cut her hair short and shaved the underside for a role and then she went an ombre blonde color. She was in a Cielo black suit with a goofy polka dot tie. I think that’s actually a man’s tie which someone fashioned into a bow. Why would anyone do that to her? She’s also wearing very understated makeup. This whole look is wrong. Gina was up for Choice TV Actress: Comedy, which went to Candace Cameron Bure, for some reason.
Kat Graham was in a kicky little white dress with a fitted bodice and an allover graphic floral print. I don’t have a designer ID on this, but it vaguely looks like Dolce & Gabbana. I really like to see what Kat is wearing, this is a great summer look for this event and is bold without looking cheap.
