Wired has an “autocomplete” interview with Jennifer Garner, where they ask her the most googled questions about her. Their interview format is a clever and an easy way to come up with questions for celebrities. In the video we learn that people want to know if Garner is Canadian (no), if she does her own stunts (sometimes), if she knows more than one language (no), and what personality type she is. When she gets to the “personality type” question she doesn’t seem to know that it’s about the popular Myers-Briggs personality scale, and then says she’s part introvert/part extrovert and will have to Google to see what her personality type is. All you do is take a test online to find your personality type. Even my 13 year-old knows about Myers-Briggs, I’m surprised she’s never heard of it The most interesting answer was the one she gave to whether her ears are pierced. They’re not because her dad didn’t let her and her sisters get their ears pierced. She said “My dad didn’t think Garner girls should have pierced ears.” So her dad got to decide that for her and all her sisters and she never made the decision to get her own ears pierced. I may be reading too much into that, but consider her choice of a second husband. Here’s more of what she said and the video is below:

Did Jennifer Garner go to college?
Yes I went to Denison University in Granville Ohio and I graduated with a BFA in theater performance

How does Jennifer Garner stay in shape?
I did it this morning, just so you know. It’s like a dance cardio weights, trampoline, really fun high energy super hard but you can do it workout.

Does Jennifer Garner have pierced ears?
No I don’t. My dad didn’t think Garner girls should have pierced ears.

What personality type is Jennifer Garner?
I’m an introvert and an extrovert… I’m an extroverted introvert. I don’t know, what a wonderful question. Google, do you have an answer for me? Who am I?

What is Jennifer Garner’s diet?
I was following Be Well by Kelly because I was getting ready for a movie. I actually really liked the diet so I’ve stuck on it.

Is Jennifer Garner James Garner’s granddaughter?
That’s sweet that they would say granddaughter. No but I used to tell people in the marching band growing up that he was my uncle.

I saw Love, Simon over the weekend and to call it wonderful and moving is inadequate. My friend and I were crying and hugging for about half the movie. Garner played the mom in that and she was about as necessary in that film as she was in Dallas Buyer’s Club. She’s smart to play up her personal life because she has not been a standout in any of the films I’ve seen with her. That said, she seems to shine in action roles and I’m glad she’s getting another chance to do that with her film coming out, Peppermint.

Here’s the video, at about :40 in she sings her sorority song and then she tries to speak pig latin and it’s annoying.
