Are there any genuinely normal, well-adjusted celebrities

[Anonymous]

Sarah Michelle Gellar - I don't even follow her on social media but her name and pic pop up on other people's pages as being a really good friend to them and coming to their aid when they're sick or going through a rough time. It seems like she and FPJ and a very solid, stable couple. They don't let their kids on social media and both have (I think) retired from acting.

Lol, no. But it's a testament to her and her publicity team that you think this.

Do you know her personally? I don't, but my husband does.

please do go on

There is no way that Jennifer Garner is not weird in the way most very famous people are weird. It's not a personal insult to her. She does a good job of working her natural charm and "folksy" manner to seem down to earth, but I guarantee if she showed up in your office tomorrow, or you saw her in the grocery store, she would seem strange to you. She has lived an extremely not normal life, including being married to Affleck and going through a super public and terrible divorce, so it's unlikely she is "normal" in the way OP means.

But yes, it's impressive that she can still convince people that she's the lady next door. She is very good in that role. But it's a role.

There is one poster on here who has some super weird hatred of JG but it's all just stuff made up in her head. There are several people who over the years have posted that they actually know her IRL and she's a nice, normal person.

He had drinking problems

British actors and celebrities and royals can have a terrible time with the British tabloid press e.g. Hugh Grant, Sienna Miller, Meghan Markle. It's no picnic there either.

Kirtsten Dunst seems like she has settled down into a normal and loving marriage with her husband.

I met Steve Carell before he was famous, and he was very nice. I've heard some people have found him standoffish, but I think he might be shy.

What?!? She is the biggest media whore around. Anyone who spends as much time as her on instagram, morning shows, and her other mediocre projects has issues.

NP. What you say is likely true of "celebrities" but there are plenty of jobbing actors who manage to make their livings from performing, and who are "well regulated, securely attached, high values people." Source: I know a couple of them, and while they'd be the first to note that their jobs are unusual, they also have a lot of gratitude that they can act for a living. But they're not wealthy or followed by paparazzi or pored over on social media, even though they have fans who keep up with their careers. And they have spouses, kids, live in houses in neighborhoods not too different from any neighborhood, have to worry about their health insurance,, budget for kids' college tuition, etc. People like them are the vast majority of working actors. "Celebrities" aren't.

The thread asks about celebrities, not just jobbing actors.

Yes. I know. That's why I made the distinction.

Why? Maybe she enjoys her career.

I used to be friends with someone who worked for Jennifer Garner. They had nothing but nice things to say about.
