Jennifer Garner Says Fans Often Tell Her She’s ‘Prettier In Person’

Is it rude for fans to tell you that you’re “prettier in person?” Well apparently they tell that to Jennifer Garner all the time, but she doesn’t seem to mind!

“They tell me I’m prettier in person than I am on screen,” she explained to People magazine. “You might as well see it for the compliment that they mean it to be. That happens, if I’m out and about, every day at some point. I don’t know what it is, but that is by far what I hear the most.”

The actress added that she feels “really lucky” because the fans she typically meets “tend to feel like I’m the girl they grew up next to or an old friend, and they want to continue a conversation that I didn’t know we were having.”

Folks on the Internet, however, are a different story.

“Zero,” she replied when asked how much attention she gives to comments. “Not only do I not read comments, I work very hard to not see the pictures, to not read articles or to know what’s out there at all. And it’s not that I don’t care, it’s that I care too much. Instagram is a different story because I don’t get a lot of people being mean.”
