The actor admitted it can be hard to be recognized on days when she feels a 'blackness in my soul.'
The “Alias” actor opened up about the pressure to be “perfect” in a new, admitting she has trouble putting up a positive front during her darker days.
“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 explained in the interview, released Tuesday.“The problem is being recognized on a day where I’m not so nice or when I have blackness in my soul,” she continued. “I’ve definitely had days where I just can’t do it. 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,” the actor added. “I’m an open book of a person.”Willy Sanjuan/Invision/Associated Press“There were two decades where it was really hard to hold a conversation,” she told the magazine. “Not in a woe-is-me, poor celebrity way. I was on baby watch every single day. The day after I had a baby, [the paparazzi] were watching again.
The star also said she has no issue with setting boundaries, telling Town & Country, “It’s not that I feel I’m underestimated in that way — I’m not afraid to stand up for myself and say, ‘Just so you know, this isn’t going to fly with me.’ When that happens, I don’t want you to be shocked that I’m a real person.”
