Jennifer Garner Has 'Zero Chill' as Her Idol Julie Andrews Surprises Her with a Phone Call
Even celebrities get starstruck!
On Wednesday, Jennifer Garner had “zero chill” when she received a surprise phone call from film legend Julie Andrews.
The 13 Going on 30 star, 47, shared the moment on Instagram, uploading a collage of photos that showed Garner completely fan-girling over the special moment, which was organized by journalist Katie Couric.
“@katiecouric asked @julieandrews to call me. It was a surprise. I’m sure you’ll be shocked to learn this, but I love her…#NextQuestionwithKatieCouric with Dame Andrews is out tomorrow. ♥️♥️ Happy Thanksgiving to all of us. #zerochill #thankyoukatie #♥️🤗♥️,” the actress wrote.

In some photos, Garner hides her face in her shirt collar trying to conceal her excitement — while in others she shows off a wide smile while excitedly kicking her feet up in the air. In later photos, the actress seems to let go to her emotions and falls into her couch, slowly sliding onto the floor.
The Peppermint star also shared snippets of her conversation with Andrews, 84, on her Instagram story, including the moment when the Mary Poppins star first called her.
“I wanted to tell you I’m a huge fan and love what you do,” Andrews told Garner, whose face was painted in disbelief.
“And Katie was just telling me that you were pretty admiring of me, too, so I thought, ‘Well let’s just have a chat,'” she added.
Toward the end of the conversation, Couric suggested that Garner and Andrews meet to get lunch sometime, to which Andrews replied, “That would be such fun.”
