Jennifer Garner
JENNIFER GARNER While her husband Ben Affleck is one of the most decorated and celebrated modern actors and producers in Hollywood, Jennifer Garner is grateful that Ben is one of the most romantic men on earth. "Ben is just so sweet and caring and very emotional," Garner explains. "He loves to give little gifts and be very romantic. We don't do anything special, but we do kind of acknowledge how much we love and care for each other. Romance is romance, but in addition romance can just be breakfast and just getting through the day looking after your kids. You just have to make that be romantic. But in the end it all comes down to being healthy and happy"
CHANNING TATUM
ends meet as an unemployed young actor in Los Angeles. "There was this girl I was seeing and she got me a dog for Valentine's Day. But I was so poor and living in a room in someone else's apartment that it was impossible for me to keep a dog. I didn't even have enough money to buy a decent meal for myself much less take care of a pet. I thought it was the most inappropriate gift ever. It just depressed the hell out of me and I wound up breaking off with the girl and giving the dog to a friend." Ouch!
HUGH JACKMAN Oscar-nominated star Hugh Jackman says his new company, Laughing Man, which produces a line of fair-trade coffee, tea and chocolate products could help you it easier for you to give the perfect gift for your partner, although he's not sure whether his wife Deborrah-Lee will be appreciative. "Well, my wife is on a diet, so chocolate can be thorny to give," Jackman admits. "But if I have any advice to give, I'd say the key to
romantic gestures is all about the element of surprise. If you've given something in the past, do something new. If you've never given chocolates, then I say go for it."
Jackman's company was created in the style of Paul Newman's food company which over the years has raised over $100 million for charity. Hugh has the same high hopes for his venture and hopes that this season of love will inspire people to be in a giving mood. "I had been looking for an opportunity to start a business like that and when I travelled to Ethiopia to work with a coffee farmer out there, the ideas came together. If you buy our chocolates and coffee, all the money goes back to the farmers and investors who are giving all their profits back to charity."
REESE WITHERSPOON Reese Witherspoon likes to use the occasion to be open about her feelings. Now married to Hollywood agent Jim Toth, Reese loves to buy chocolates and tell her man how much she appreciates having him in her life.
