  • Jenna Fischer “Genuinely in Love” With John Krasinski Comment Set Straight by Actor

    Jenna Fischer was recently quoted as saying something about being “genuinely in love” with John Krasinski, but her former The Office costar believes what she said was likely misconstrued.

    Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski played Jim Halpert and Pam Beesley, respectively, on The Office.

    While appearing on a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live, Fischer said, “there’s like a real part of me that is Pam, and there’s a real part of him that’s Jim, and those parts of us were genuinely in love with one another.”

    John Krasinski–married to Emily Blunt–says many republications of her quote have led to some confusion.

    “I think that was wildly misquoted or taken out of context,” Krasinski said during a recent interview with The Daily Beast.

    “I’m sure she was trying to say something nice about how genuine the acting relationship was, of bringing a relationship that became that popular onscreen–and I think we both feel it’s such an honor to be a part of that relationship,” he added.

    “As far as how she was quoted about saying we were ‘genuinely in love,’ I think that was taken wildly out of context and I feel bad for her,” Krasinski clarified.

    Jenna Fischer, happily married to Kirk Lee since 2010, may have misspoke or her comment may have been misconstrued, but by John Krasinski making such an issue out of the comment, it appears he’s a bit uncomfortable with the seemingly benign statement.

    What do you make over John Krasinski’s insistence that Jenna Fischer’s comment was “misconstrued?”

  • Celeste Ackelson Marries Brian Baumgartner

    Brian Baumgartner – who played lovable Kevin Malone on The Office – married girlfriend Celeste Ackelson on Saturday, April 26, his rep confirmed to Us Weekly.

    The wedding was held in the actor’s backyard and a reception followed at the Wilshire Country Club in Los Angeles.

    His former Office costars Jenna Fischer, Angela Kinsey, John Krasinksi (with wife Emily Blunt) and Oscar Nunez were on hand to witness the actor’s nuptials.

    Baumgartner, 41, is well-loved and best-known for playing deadpan Kevin Malone on The Office from 2005 until the series ended in 2013.

    He’s also appeared in Mike & Molly, Hot in Cleveland, and the film License to Wed.

    It’s not surprising so many cast members showed up to celebrate with Baumgartner since he told PEOPLE he considers his Office co-stars to be a “second family” to him.

    “We’ve all grown up together. Our lives have changed together. We’ve seen weddings and divorces and kids, success and failure,” said Baumgartner.

    This is the second marriage for the star who has a daughter with previous wife Julia Fisher.
