Bitch-Back! Give Jennifer Garner a Break?

Readers say she deserves sympathy, and wonder WTF happened with Abbie and Ryan

Dear Ted:
I really think you need to give Jennifer Garner a break. There was a time not so long ago that on a daily basis E! had a picture of Garner picking up her daughter at preschool. Every day? Really? Is anyone that interested in someone picking up their kids from school? As a mom myself, I can only imagine how awful and scary that must have been to have photogs camped out at her school. Until you and your staff are parents, and know what it's like to have an uncontrollable need to protect your babies, you need to back off. I'm a nice person, but I'd be a raging you-know-what, too, if I had to deal with what she's dealing with. And, as you yourself should know, marriage isn't easy, no matter who you decided to marry.

Dear Mommie Fearest:
Perhaps you're confusing A.T. with another part of E! Online, but we've hardly run daily pics of Jen picking up Violet. Usually, we go for the stony-faced stuff with Ben, which is more of what interests us. The kid didn't ask to be a part of this stuff, and, on that note, we agree.

Dear Ted:
Ryan Phillippe just broke up with Abbie Cornish. Any hope of a Reese-Ryan reunion? It would be great to see another happy family in Hollywood!
—Shannon

Dear Domestic:
No chance for a R and R giving it another go. These two are totally (and bitterly) done. Ryan will be enjoying his newly single status, not settling down again.

Dear Ted:
What is the deal with Bruce Jenner? I will admit that Keeping Up With the Kardashians is one of my "guilty pleasures" and Khloé definitely brings the LOLs, but I can't figure Bruce out. He seems to be the only voice of reason in the entire family. How does he put up with all that drama?
—Courtney

Dear Father Fames Best:
Bruce may have to endure a lot of silly stuff, but he get a whole lotta air time for his efforts. Remember, Bruce was a star before any of the other Kardashians.

Dear Ted:
I love your column and I'm addicted to it. I especially like and appreciate that you are a Robsten fan and that you respect their privacy! You never say too much and I appreciate that. Whatever is or isn't between them, is only their business. Public figures or not, they have a right to private time.
—Lori

Dear Sweet Stuff:
Hey, I do what I can!

Dear Ted:
There are rumors on the Internet that something big like a marriage is in the works for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, especially with Jon Voight showing up in Venice to be with them. Or by bringing in the big dog (Voight), it's all about PR ops to bolster up their image as a "happy" (yeah, right) couple and family?
—Whats New

Dear Bingo:
Who the hell do you think Angie learned her press smarts from?

Dear Ted:
I am so happy that K.Stew won the BAFTA award, but why did she look so sad? Was she sick? I've been hearing media outlets report that something was off with her last night, and we all know by now with the picture surfacing around that her and Rob are still on, so what gives with the sad face?
—Stephanie

Dear Puss Police:
Oh, please, Kristen's been looking like she's so over it all from the get-go. Please don't take these pouts seriously. After all, Rob doesn't, so why should we?

Dear Ted:
You've mentioned that Seymour Plow-Me-More's wife is fully aware of her husband's penchant for boys and is OK with their arrangement. I'm wondering if Mrs. Plow-Me-More is a serial beard—that is before marrying Seymour, was she a beard to other gay Hollywood actors?
—Sally

Dear Mrs. Fakey:
No, and she wasn't getting anywhere, either. Enter the Missus' deal with the devil.

Dear Ted:
Do you think that the glut of bad movies the Lifetime Channel is showing featuring Kristen Stewart will help her career? I thought their own movies were bad. Yikes!
—Pat

Dear Nice Try:
Kristen Stewart shines, no matter what dubious flick she may or may not have participated in. She's that good.

Dear Ted:
Do you think Kristin Cavallari is the new Lindsay Lohan, or is her behavior nothing new?
—Stephanie

Dear Young H'wood:
Kristin has always loved being known as a "bad girl," and she totally milks that role. Which is why it's mucho interesting she's denying some of those recent overindulgence rumors...Maybe she should befriend Linds to figure how to best deal?

Dear Ted:
You said: "Summit knows Robsten is the moneymaker." Are you trying to tell us this relationship is a PR stunt and they are not in a true relationship? Can you be more clear? Why can you just say, (1) "they are together and happy but focus on their work" or (2) "they are no more together, or PR stunt, they are not in a serious relationship." Which answer we can choose, No. 1 or No. 2? Please clear this crazy drama.
—Cindy

Dear Specifics:
No. 1. Plus, Robsten's behavior at the BAFTAs may help clear this up for you. At least for the time being.

Dear Ted:
With all due respect to his acting abilities, Toothy Tile has never come across in any of his roles as some supermacho, ladies' man character. I'm not sure most of the movie-buying public buys him as a romantic lead as it is, and he certainly couldn't pull of a Barney-like part like Neil Patrick Harris. I guess what I'm saying to Toothy is: "People aren't going to be shocked, believe me...so why deal with the hassle?"
—Truth

Dear Know-It-All:
Love how some folks, from the comfort of their anonymous computers, tell other folks how easy it is to jump off that cliff.

Dear Ted:
Gerard Butler and his former 300 costar Rodrigo Santoro spent some time together in Brazil around Valentine's Day. Are they Toothy Tile and Grey Goose? If these two hunks mixed their juices, Baby Tile must be a gorgeous kid!
—Mary

Dear Likes to Drool:
The above bromance, yummy as it may be, is not the great love affair of Toothy and Grey. Think a bit less muscled.

Dear Ted:
Are Secretia Ohio and Chester Shorts-Off  Will and Jada Pinkett Smith?
—Brandy

Dear Swingersville:
Nope, but excellent guess. Conjure up more athletic sex romps, and perhaps you'll see the open-marriage light.

Dear Ted:
Oi Ted! That's Portuguese for Hi! I am new at this Blind Vice guessing, but I am obsessed with Roxy Couture and I had a dream last night who could be the deluded diva. Kimora Lee Simmons?
—Amanda

Dear Nightmare More Like It:
Dreaming of Blind Vices? Impressive! But alas, you're detective skills are still only half awake. Think thinner.

Dear Ted:
What kind of boyfriend would you describe Jake Gyllenhaal as being? Say hi to your furry friends for me!
—Addicted

Dear BF Score:
Lately? A much better one. Charlie, Margo and Cleo all say woof and meow back!
