רעיון די טוב של ג'ניפר - חלק 1
Here's the first part of the translation from M&J Palace: From: tinyboxofdoom (Original Message) Sent: 4/1/2004 3:59 PM Thanks to MichaelVaughn11 for forwarding me these scans. As always, this is just my rough translation - I've done my best to get connotations and things right, but this is tough! Part 1 (more to follow) - about Scott Mag: Do you think that your divorce from actor Scott Foley - after only 2 years of marriage - was due to your hectic work schedule? Jen: Preserving love, so that the flame which ignites it never goes out, is probably the hardest thing to do. My relationship with Scott lost the fire, but how do you keep the flames going when you work 80 hours a week? It's impossible... Mag: So it was your responsibilities which broke you up as a couple? Jen: It is, in any case, largely responsible for it. When I came home in the evenings, Scott was waiting for me. He hoped maybe that I would tell him about my day, and talk about something or other. He wanted to have a normal life! Except that, for my part, I only wanted to get in my bed for a night of rest. And what didn't help the situation, which my husband and I were working on, was that Scott had some professional setbacks - his TV show flopped - at the moment when I was pushed forward into the spotlight at ALIAS. I'm not saying he was jealous, but I'm sure, on the other hand, that he couldn't support a failure while his wife was so successful. Mag: You've also said that your ex-husband rappraoched you for your stuntwork Jen: When I got out of the shower, he was upset by the number of bruises covering my body. Sometimes, he had the impression that I'd returned from a mission in Vietman or that I'd been fighting with a band of criminals. Without much success, I explained to him that these are part of my job, that they're impossible to avoid. But his distress comes from a good place, from being very protective.

Here's some more....very cute stuff! Mag: Perhaps you didn't need to feel protected... Jen. Perhaps. It's true that I can defend myself! Mag: After that, Michael Vartan, who works with you on the series, and you, you were attracted to one another... Jen: At first, we were simply co-workers, then very quickly we became just friends. And from friends we became lovers. (I doubt "lovers" was the word Jen used, but that's how it translates. Ah, the French!) Taking that step was the most natural thing in the world. That happens all the time, in all lines of work. It's just in the spotlight because we're two celebrities. It's nothing special, nothing that deserves huge headlines in the newspapers! There's not a scandal back there. We just live our lives and are happy together. Mag: What did you like about Michael? His Frenchness? Jen: It's a definite asset! (laughs) But seriously, his professional ethic. His sense of humor is very developed. His love for my dog, a laborador who was given to me by the producers of 13 Going on 30. His approach there reflected very well, it was very subtle: before he could seduce me, he had to seduce my dog! (I might have gotten the tenses wrong, but the gist is there. Martha first, then Jen!) Mag: Wanting a child? Jen: My dog? Mag: No, you! Jen: (laughs) I come from a very happy family. My sisters and I talk about kids often. But let's be realistic: having kids is not on the agenda. To get pregnant, right now, that would be the death of the series. The pressure on my shoulders is enormous, and not easy to deal with every day, but I like it. The time will come when I'm ready for another type of pressure, that of motherhood. When? I haven't the least idea. With who? You suspect it, I suppose! All my girlfriends have a child. I'm a little Ugly Duckling, compared to them. But my decision depends on my biological clock. it will ring some day, and I'll be convinced! (more about Michael and the tabloids....)
