A lot has happened on this show over the past four years.
Unfortunately, our first guest wouldn't know that because she
hasn't been here in four years.
Please welcome, Jennifer Garner.
[SIGHS]
You look beautiful.
And I love the movie.
And we'll get to all that.
Oh, good.
Thanks.
But how come?
It's been a while.
This is our seventh season.
And you haven't been here in four years.
What happened?
Well, that's what I'd like to know.
No, no, no.
I call.
Oh, I call.
Oh, no, no.
Oh.
No, you didn't.
I tried to get into your birthday party.
I stood outside.
Really?
I saw Jennifer Aniston go by.
I saw [VOCALIZES] lots of people go by.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Well, I didn't invite you because I
didn't think you'd come.
Let's make up.
OK, good.
OK.
Because I was just about to go, who's going to check me, boo?
Cartier.
Wow!
Really?
Yeah.
They just loaned it to me.
But you keep it.
They never pay attention.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Yeah.
That's beautiful.
Who makes this, do you know?
Cartier, I think.
Oh, Cartier, thank you.
Yeah.
If you plug them, they'll give it to you.
I know.
Well--
Yeah.
Cartier, the top of the jewelry designing.
Thank you, Cartier.
Mm-hmm.
Anyway--
[LAUGHTER]
Well, that's very sweet of you.
Seriously, I've been watching everything going on.
You have a lot of good things in your life.
Last time I was here I was--
Pregnant with your first child.
Yeah, I know.
I had her.
And I have a whole 'nother one.
A whole 'nother one?
Mm-hmm.
You've made another one?
Yeah!
And how--
It's not that hard.
How old?
[LAUGHTER]
Really?
Yes.
[APPLAUSE]
I beg to differ.
[APPLAUSE]
So how old is the first one that was inside
of you when I saw you?
Yeah.
She's--
What's her name?
Violet.
And she's how old?
She's 3 and 1/2.
Mm-hmm.
Wow.
And the other-- the new one is a girl also.
Yeah, the new one is a girl also, last time I checked.
And she is--
How old?
Eight months.
Well, that's why I call her new.
Violet is used now.
Yeah.
Yes.
She was the earlier model.
Right.
Yeah, we can't turn her in.
But we went out and got a new one.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
And she's more like me, just kind of dumb, and happy.
[LAUGHTER]
It's so easy to be dumb and happy.
I know.
It's the best way to live.
Yeah.
It's a great thing to be dumb and happy, isn't it?
Mm-hmm.
It is.
I would imagine.
I just called myself dumb and happy.
And congratulations on-- you're in this month's O.
You wrote a--
Yes, that was very exciting for me.
Yeah.
You wrote a whole article.
And that's my picture.
There you are.
Yeah, and I talked about the books I like.
Right.
Uh-huh.
That's great because you want to help children learn to read.
You think it's important for kids to read.
I do.
That's why you wrote this.
Mm-hmm.
That's fantastic.
Uh-huh.
I am going to be on the cover of O in December with--
[INAUDIBLE] here.
Are you really?
Yeah.
You're in here.
Right.
I'm going to be here.
Wow.
That's interesting.
So are you--
You're inside here.
And I'm going to be--
Are you going to be--
I'll be out here.
Are you out here with Oprah?
Yeah.
We just--
Did you meet her?
Were you both there together?
We just shot it Saturday.
Yes, we did it.
They didn't Photoshop you in to one cover?
Because they can put you on a cover of a magazine
just like at Disneyland or something.
No, I know.
No, like the George Michael-Aretha Franklin video
that they did a long time ago.
Right.
No, this is a-- she and I were together.
Yeah, we met.
That's great for you.
Good.
It's great.
Anyway--
You didn't hang out with her or anything like that?
Not that day.
No.
But we're probably-- we're going out.
Her birthday this year I'm definitely invited.
We're definitely going to hang out--
What's--
--a lot.
What's her birthday, do you remember?
Oh, man, her birthday, we celebrate it all year round.
She's calling me right now.
Hello?
Oh, that's your phone.
It's Oprah.
Yeah.
She-- forget it.
Well, if you want to hang out with her--
see, you come here more often, you'll
hang out with Oprah with me.
OK.
Yeah.
Give me my ring.
OK.
All right.
What do you do with these things?
So basically, they just take anything
you do-- do you want to work your tush?
Do you want to work your abs?
What do you feel like?
All of it.
All of it?
I want to do all of it.
Okey dokey.
All right.
Then let's do a valslide Reverse Lunge.
Put one foot on here.
Mm-hmm.
A Reverse Lunge, ooh, I hate lunges.
Yeah, but this makes it a little bit better--
harder and better.
And you go down and up.
Mm-hmm.
Bend your back knee.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, gosh, you're good at this.
Mm-hmm.
It works better if you're in six-inch heels.
Yeah.
I can't believe you're doing that with heels.
OK.
So there's the Lunge.
So then you can also do these little evil things.
And they do the outer, inner thigh.
OK.
So let's do some abs, right?
Sure, let's do abs.
And you could do, like, a James Brown.
You can kind of do--
Yeah.
[APPLAUSE AND CHEERING]
All right.
Abs?
You want some abs?
Sure.
OK.
So--
Well, let me see what you're doing.
Here you go.
I'm going to do something called a painful push away.
Painful push away.
Yeah, that's painful.
So you push away, and then it's painful.
Then you push away.
[APPLAUSE AND CHEERING]
That's for your stomach?
Do it.
She's like, do it.
Do it!
All right.
Oh, my back.
You push away with your hands.
Push away?
And then you come up.
Painful, right?
And then push away?
Well, yeah, because my lower back
is a little tweaked right now.
I probably shouldn't be doing it.
Oh, whatever.
