In November 2007, while on vacation in Hawaii with her newly engaged Scottish actor Ross McCall, a paparazzi has taken few candid shots of Jennifer Love Hewitt (star in I Know What You Did Last Summer and Ghost Whisperer) in bikini. What stunned many was the cellulite on Jennifer’s hip. Within a short period of time, the fat ass photos were circulated in the Net.
Few days later, Jennifer Love Hewitt took the courage and told the reporters the following message…
“I’ve sat by in silence for a long time now about the way women’s bodies are constantly scrutinized. 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…
A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn’t make you beautiful.
…What I should be doing is celebrating some of the best days of my life and my engagement to the man of my dreams, instead of having to deal with photographers taking invasive pictures from bad angles. I know what I look like, and so do my friends and family. And like all women out there, I love my body…”
It is indeed difficult to be celebrities when the world is watching them. But it is even more difficult for a celebrity to strike back with the message like above.
Jennifer Love Hewitt, well done.

I am totally agree with her and love what she has said” I love my body…” Learning to love yourself and accept how you look are the most important things we all need to do I guess. As we get older naturally our body image change, our mind grow to keep pace with those changes. God gave us the body structure of individual being, its up to us to keep looking after it. Don’t let the media or those celebrity magazine sway your thought of being happy about yourself.
Cheers to all!

I wish I’m as confident as her about her body image. Something that I should learn from her. I freak out whenever I put on a pound or two! And I find myself not slim enough all the time, I always wish I’m slimmer. I have low body image of myself. :-P

I think Jennifer Love Hewitt has it well said when most actress would say “oh it’s photoshoped..” Who cares if you have a big butt if you’re a regular Jane but as for Jennifer, she is a living proof to how difficult it can be when people are constantly scrutinizing your body image when yourself, don’t. And what matter is how you love your own body and that what you care most is simply enjoying life.
