Jennifer Garner discussed the challenge of living up to her “nice” image, particularly when recognized in public on bad days, during an interview with Allure.
“The problem with, ‘Oh, she’s so nice’ is that when I have any kind of boundary, people think of it as much more than it actually is,” Garner told the magazine. “The problem is being recognized on a day where I’m not so nice or when I have blackness in my soul.”
“I’ve definitely had days where I just can’t do it,” she continued. “I scowl at people before they can walk up to me. I’m not perfect, and I don’t think I’m rude, but I’m not good at being fake. I’m an open-book kind of person.”
