Last night was the Los Angeles premiere of The Invention of Lying, the Ricky Gervais film costarring Rob Lowe, Tina Fey, Jason Bateman and Jennifer Garner. Jennifer, Ricky and Rob showed up for the premiere, and it seems like all anyone could talk about was how great Jennifer looked, and how thin Ricky is getting. First, Jennifer – her strapless dress is Gucci, black silk with blue embroidery. The fit is excellent, and the dress is pretty righteous, in my opinion. Simple, yet stunning. I wish she would do something different with her hair, though. She looks like she needs a trim, or maybe she should have just pulled it in a bun.
As for Ricky, maybe it’s not that he looks thin, but he just looks healthier and in shape. Ricky told journalists on the red carpet that he was “flattered” that people noticed that he has been working out, saying “I have been working out more because I’ve got a gym in my house…I think I’m exactly the same weight but I’ve probably turned a bit of flab to muscle. I’ve lost about an inch, I’m still a 36-inch waist so I’m hardly Posh Spice!” Still, Ricky says that he’s not dieting, admitting that “I’ve had pizza two days running in my hotel!” I think he looks great – but I love that man, no matter how in-shape or out-of-shape he is. I’m totally biased about Ricky.
Last night, Jennifer appeared on The Jay Leno Show, and Jay made her disrespect the Red Sox. I have literally no idea what any of this sports crap means, but People had a good summary:
Pardon the pun, but Jennifer Garner hit a home run on The Jay Leno Show Monday night when forced to recite the starting lineup for the Boston Red Sox in order to earn the right to plug her new flick, The Invention of Lying.
“Just to annoy” husband and diehard Sox fan Ben Affleck, Leno not only forced her to don a rival New York Yankees cap, but she also had to hold a photo of “her least favorite” Yankee player, Derek Jeter.
Impressively, Garner pulled off the challenge with commentary about her favorites – hey, she admits they watch every game! – but refused to give the Jeter photo to Affleck “as a gift,” proving just how smart she really is.

Oh… burn? Will Ben be mad about that? I hope not. The Invention of Lying is about a world in which lying doesn’t exist… until Ricky Gervais invents it, all for personal gain. Garner if his love interest, and the film does look good. I’ll see it just because Ricky Gervais is awesome.
Here’s the trailer for The Invention of Lying. It’s out in the US next week, on October 2.

Wow…I think this is the prettiest that she’s ever looked. And Kaiser, while I do agree that she should have tried a different hairstyle, I don’t think a bun would have done it. Did you forget just how huge her ears are? lol
She did really well and even was gracious when Jay displayed his lousy interviewing skills, ridiculing her imitation of Violet’s voice regarding Hallowe’en costumes. He likes to make fun of what guests say. He is joking around but it means the celebrity has to defend what was said. I thought he would have maybe learned something on his 3 month haitus but he’s exactly the same.
She’s beautiful and has always seemed very down-to-earth and a genuinely nice person.
Im really not a Ricky Gervais fan. I cant see all why people love him. I want too, but i cant! Anyhoo, Jenn does look nice. She seems so boring, boring in a good way tho. I want her to play a part where she is cussing, drinking & doing drugs. Be a badass jenn!
She cleans up beautifully. Good for her.
This movie will be on my list to see. Funny trailer.
Wow!!! She looks absolutely stunningly gorgeous!!! Love that dress!
She has amazing bone structure. Better than Anjelina, i.m.o Now, if only she’d get rid of the bangs…
Blake Lively would look stunning in that dress, Jennifer Garner not so much. It’s a nice dress, maybe it’s her hair color or lack of jewelery but something doesn’t look right about it.
Jennifer has such a lovely Adam’s apple.
(kidding) she looks great!
She doesn’t look like she’s putting much effort into her appearance. I mean, she’s an actress, she’s supposed to glam it up!

Watch that scene from Alias where she is fighting. Badass enough for you??
