So I'm one of those people who likes to think Jennifer Garner is One Of Us.  I mean, come on, she's married to Ben!  (The post-J Lo, back-to-his-roots Ben!)  And she shops at the Farmer's Market!  In jeans and a t-shirt!  She has that cute little girl, and she takes her to the playground, and she goes to Fenway Park (OK, that's Ben's influence, but she looks like she's having a good time).
I mean, she seems like the antithesis of, say, Tom and Katie, with their endless courting of the paparazzi.
Except then I start to wonder.  Actually, I started to wonder a while ago.  I was thinking about playground pictures.  Denise Richards's playground pictures are obviously staged so as to garner [sic] maximum publicity.  Denise poses; Jen plays.  But if she didn't want the attention, don't you think she could play at home?
Then this evening I saw her in a Neutrogena commercial.  Does she need the money?  Or does she just want the publicity?  Neutrogena: clean, classy: the Jen image.
But is it all just an image?
