She Can Sing Quite Well

Sadly, most people missed the brilliant film, Walk Hard, in which Jenna Fischer gets to show off just how well she can sing. But when we say she can sing, we mean it, she really has pipes. A great singer with a great stage presence, believe it or not. That singing ability she has actually stems from her many years doing live theater. If you can sing on a stage in front of a live audience, you sing sing anywhere. That is exactly what Fischer was doing for the early part of her career. And can still do quite well to this day.

She Wrote, Directed, and Starred In A Film

The movie was called Lollilove and got Jenna some much deserved accolades and attention, way back in 2004. The movie co-starred her then husband, director James Gunn (most notable for his Guardians of the Galaxy, dropping this Summer) and most of the dialogue of Lollilovei is made up on the spot. Most of the mockumentary is improv, which actually leads us right into our next point….

She Is Remarkable At Improv

For those who may not know, improv is when dialogue is improvised and made up on the spot. A great many of the films she has been in, as well as The Office, implement this style of comedy. thing is, if you are bad at it, the comedy is no good. Looking back, it makes you realize how much more impressive some of the stuff she did on The Office was.  Like, how do you keep a straight face through all that? Well she did, and managed to be pretty hilarious herself.

She Is Athletic (Sort of)

Believe it or not, Jenna Fischer played left field for the Taco Bell All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball game. Okay, I know that does not mean she is naturally athletic, but it felt like a good headline to bring you in. Thing is, I am not quite sure if she played well or not. I know she played. Either way, if you can catch and throw a softball, that makes you legally athletic, so I was right.

Passionate About Animal Rescue

It always makes us like a celebrity even more when we find out they are just as cool in real life as they portray themselves on screen. It seems Jenna Fischer is very much involved with the Los Angeles organization, Kitten Rescue. An avid animal lover who wishes every homeless animal could find a forever home. I mean, come on. How can you not have a soft spot in your heart for something like that?
