Jennifer Garner couldn't avoid seeing stories about the hilarious moment online following the awards ceremony.
Jennifer Garner can't even look at the "embarrassing" viral video of herself making an odd facial expression at the Oscars.
At the awards ceremony, Jennifer was seen clapping besides Chris Messina, when she suddenly stopped applauding and the expression on her face went from calm and collected to shocked and confused.
Suggestions of what realisation dawned on the actress in that moment sparked multiple memes, with fans speculating that she suddenly remembered she'd left her curling iron on, or that her ex-husband Ben Affleck wasn't the best Batman actor.
Jennifer spoke about the meme-worthy moment during an interview on the Friday (16Mar18) edition of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and admitted she has no idea what prompted the expression.
"I can't even look at it. I can't. It's too embarrassing," Jennifer laughed as Ellen flashed up the image on her big screen. "I have no control over this (expression). What am I doing?
"I started getting texts as you can imagine, people saying, 'What were you thinking? What was happening?' And I try really hard not to see myself online but she's a little unavoidable."
Mother-of-three Jennifer added that she "regrets, regrets, regrets" pulling that face, and told Ellen she "wishes" she had a better story about what prompted it.
"I wanna just punch her in the face," Jennifer joked.
Following the awards, Jennifer proved she was a good sport by adding voiceovers to some of the memes that were created of the moment.
"Congrats to Shape of Water! Maybe I should date a fish?" was Jennifer's first suggestion, referring to Guillermo del Toro's Oscar-winning movie.
Referencing her Capital One Venture TV adverts, Jennifer's second theory was: "Hey Jimmy Kimmel, what's in your wallet? Wait where's my wallet?" And Jennifer's third suggestion was: "Can't wait to work with Lena Dunham! Wait, did I sign a nudity waiver?", referring to the recent news that she has signed up to appear in Lena's new HBO TV series Camping.
