Jennifer Garner really is just like us! Well, kind of.
The mom-of-three - she has kids Violet, 8, Seraphina, 5, and Samuel, 2 - stopped by the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon this week, where she told a hilariously awful story about... head lice. It seems there's more to being a Hollywood mama than red carpets and couture clothes. Even the rich and famous aren't immune to this particular dreaded childhood "milestone."
See Jennifer's funny account of her battle with head lice, in which she recounts a greasy first meeting with George Clooney and does a pretty terrible impersonation of her husband Ben Affleck.
I love it!
The fact that Jennifer Garner is willing to open up in front of millions of viewers about being itchy, oily, smelly and infested with vermin just solidifies her status as one of my favorite celebrity moms. Way to keep it real, Jen.
Head lice is one thing we've not yet had to deal with in our house - knock on wood! We got a letter home from my oldest daughter's school last year warning of an infestation, but thankfully we managed to get through it unscathed.
Of course, that could all change. With the kids back at school and winter on its way, the threat of head lice looms large. It may be time to review BabyCenter blogger Kristina Sauerwein's tips on how to avoid the little bugs. Is anyone feeling a little itchy all of a sudden?
As for Jennifer, next up for her is the family-friendly flick Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, based of course on the popular book of the same title by Judith Viorst.
Has your family had to deal with lice?
