NO. 11: JENNIFER GARNER
as Sydney Bristow in Alias (2001-2006)

WHO IS SHE? A college coed recruited into a shadow branch of the CIA, Sydney saved the world on a weekly basis while keeping her double (and sometimes triple) life from her closest friends.

SKILLS Name it and she can do it, including changing outfits about as fast as humanly possible.

Jennifer Garner: ‘Life is Very Full These Days’

Quote:

When it comes to raising two small children in the public eye all while balancing two successful acting careers, Jennifer Garner says that she and husband Ben Affleck like to keep things simple.

“The goal is that everyone is just happy and healthy,” the 37-year-old actress says in a new interview. From the sound of things, the couple are succeeding! Jennifer adds,

“The second child is easier, and the experience of bringing a baby into the world is easier, but the overall thing is chaos. It’s happy chaos. Let me just say that life is very full these days.”

Especially so now that Jennifer has a new film to promote. The Invention of Lying — in theaters now — is one of the rare roles the former Alias star has said yes to in recent years. “I really have to love a project to do it, because it’s a lot of logistics with two children and a husband who is working on a set,” she concedes. “It’s very lively at our house.”

As for those times when Jennifer isn’t on set, she is determined to give Violet Anne, 3 ½, and Seraphina Rose, 9 months this week, as normal an upbringing is possible — even with the paparazzi in pursuit.

“Does it bother me that I’m not left alone with my daughters? My theory on this is simple: ‘If you don’t let it get to you, it won’t.’ I just live my life, and I ignore the rest of it.”

Jennifer Garner: Ben Affleck is a Slow Director

Quote:

Jennifer Garner grabs her cup of morning coffee while out on a walk with her adorable daughters — Violet Anne, 3, and Seraphina Rose, 8 months, — on Sunday (October 4) in Boston, Mass.

The family is in town because papa Ben Affleck is directing and starring his new movie, The Town.

Would Jen want to be directed by Ben in a film? Not really.

Jen shared, “I don’t want to because he is not the world’s fastest director, and I like to get in and do my work and go home and put the kids to bed. I’m afraid there would be this moment where I would say, ‘OK. You’ve got it. I promise you it is in the can. I’ve got to go home.’ But you know, life is long and I never say never. I think Ben is brilliant at what he does. I am so happy for him and proud of him.”

And this is something that made me laugh:

“[Violet] thinks that I work in a trailer. She thinks that my work is getting hair and makeup done,” the 37-year-old actress told reporters at the Toronto International Film Festival press conference for her new movie The Invention of Lying. “If you ask her what I do, she’ll say she remembers me bowing on stage when I did a show in New York, and so she’ll say, ‘My mom sometimes will bow on stage and sometimes she gets her hair and makeup done. It’s a great job!”
