Jennifer Garner Butters Up

Jennifer Garner picks up her daughter Violet from school in Santa Monica on Tuesday (April 7).

The 36-year-old actress will reportedly play the wife of a retired butter-sculpting champion who is pitched against a youngster in a competition. The script, landed writer Jason Micallef on the prized “Black List” of the best unproduced screenplays for 2008.

“I wanted to do a political satire,” Micallef told the Hollywood Reporter, “and I was looking for some venue that people take very seriously but is also ridiculous — like politics — but at the same time is really visual.”

10+ pictures inside of Jennifer Garner picking up Violet Affleck…

You can never have too many pics of little Violet Affleck….she’s full of sunshine.

Pitts can’t exploit kids when they’re not together.

Vi got a new lunch bag… Those are great they have them in assorted
styles for adults and kids.. The butter wife now .. that she has taken
over the Ghost Of Girlfriend Past.. Matthew and Jen are the only ones
so why call it girlfriends… When she is the object of his affections of
the one that got away… Why not just call the “The one that got away”

JUNE yes you do see a ORBIT CARSEAT.. that belongs to Seraphina.. Who is not available to be seen right now…. Why I will never know..

It is nice to see Jen smiling again she will be promoting Ghost of
Girlfriend Past at the end of the month.. Which movie will do better
Ben’s or Jen’s who is the only girlfriend in the movie judging by the
poster… and promoting it..

Adore Violet’s duel French braids. I remember asking my Aunt (my Mom didn’t know how to do it, hehe) to do my hair like that all the time. :)

To BITS: Katie and Suri are happy. Jen and Violet are lucky they got no onlookers who are so loud and many photogs that go animalistic and screaming at you and the baby.

You think you will smile for those?

Photogs are not only annoying they are also perverts. They love taking pics of Jen’s butt. That is SICK! I wonder how they would feel if somebody took pics of their’s mom’s a$$ and splashed it on the internet? Violet and Jen are so in love with each other. I love them both to pieces.

oh please @ 04/08/2009 at 6:57 pm

Jen’s trying to use Violet to hide her baby pouch, but it isn’t working (and clearly mugging for the paps in the process).
