The newly engaged actress spoke out via her blog yesterday in response to the unflattering photos of her Hawaiian trip and tabloid buzz that she had somehow let herself go. "To set the record straight, I'm not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image.... I know what I look like, and so do my friends and family. And like all women out there should, I love my body."
This important message got us thinking: Firstly, Jennifer Love Hewitt has photographers chasing her? What, was Britney asleep or otherwise indisposed? Secondly, she has a blog? Well, now that the earnest mid-90s floodgates are open, we're bracing ourselves for the onslaught of body-positive magazine fluff pieces about the actress saying how she's "never looked better!" Then she and Jamie Lee Curtis will ride off into the totally-not-airbrushed sunset together, leaving in their wake the message that scarfing a burger is just another way to get some gossip-column love.
But flash forward a decade and we're putting our money on Jen replacing Valerie Bertinelli as the Jenny Craig spokesmodel, 'cause at this rate, those appreciating "curves" may be the best talent Hewitt can lay claim to. We say, own it!
