Jennifer Love Hewitt says she was never ‘insecure' until she was shamed for these 2007 photos
Jennifer Love Hewitt can hardly believe what the tabloids said in the early aughts. The actress, 46, was always confident in herself since stepping into Hollywood at age 10. But things shifted in 2007 after photos of her in Hawaii surfaced with the headline 'Stop Calling Me Fat!' 'I just had blind faith in myself,' Hewitt told Vulture in an interview published Friday about growing up. 'I highly recommend it.' The 'Ghost Whisperer' star was gutted after catching wind of the headline. 'I was having the time of my life,' Hewitt recalled. 'I had made up the dumbest song about eating snacks and playing in the ocean, and I was singing it to my boyfriend out loud, doing some weird dance move, and they got the picture and then it was on the cover.' 'I don't think I was ever really insecure until that cover,' she expressed to the outlet. 'And then when it happened, I don't know that I've ever recovered from it.' The paparazzi shots permanently shifted Hewitt's mentality. The 'Client List' actress detailed: 'There's a part of me that's always like, 'Is this version going to be good enough, or is that going to happen again?' Where somebody's going to be like, 'Hey, this is her without makeup at the cleaners. She looks 59.'' As for why that moment in particular was so traumatizing, Hewitt explained, 'Because that was me. I think that's why the insecurity carried on. I don't know if I've even ever put that together for myself other than right now.' 'I think I was like, 'Oh my God, I was myself one time, and this is what happened.'' Luckily, Hewitt's mother, Patricia Mae Hewitt, who died in 2012 after a battle with cancer, was there with words of wisdom. 'She was like, 'You don't get it. You can't win. This is just people having a problem with the version of you they think belongs to them.' And she said, 'Take your power back. Belong to yourself, and don't worry about it.'' Hewitt also touched on becoming a sex symbol in her late teens and early 20s after starring in hits like 1997's 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' 'Can't Hardly Wait' in 1998, and 'Heartbreakers' (2001). 'It bothers me more now than it did at that age because I was in it,' Hewitt stated. 'Before I even knew what sex was, I was a sex symbol. I still don't know that I have that fully defined for myself because it started so weird.' Now, after decades in the industry, the 'Tuxedo' alum has found a home on ABC. Hewitt stars as Maddie Buckley on the ABC drama '9-1-1.' 'I get to be, not ugly, but raw in a way that doesn't matter. I get to put all those little things into her that maybe I didn't notice or get to pay attention to along the way and heal them,' she shared. 'I give that to Maddie constantly.' For Hewitt, it feels like this is the first time since starring in 'Party of Five' in the '90s that people are focused on her work. 'It was the work and then it was the body. And not the body of work,' she reflected. 'Now we're getting back to the work part of it.' Along with playing the beloved 911 operator, Hewitt also stepped back into the shoes of the iconic Julie James. She reprised her role in the new 'I Know What You Did Last Summer,' 27 years after the original film debuted in 1997. Hewitt stepped out for the sequel's premiere at LA's United Theater on Broadway on Monday. Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr., who starred in the original project together, turned the premiere into date night. Prinze Jr., 49, reprises his role as Ray Bronson in the sequel. Gellar, 48, played Helen Shivers, who died in the original movie. Despite both being on the carpet, Hewitt and Gellar didn't pose for pictures together. 'For everyone asking — I never got to see @jenniferlovehewitt, who is fantastic in the movie. I was inside with my kids when the big carpet happened. And unfortunately, JLH didn't come to the after-party,' Gellar commented on Instagram Wednesday. The 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' star added, 'If you have ever been to one of these, it's crazy. I sadly didn't get pics with most of the cast. But that doesn't change how amazing I think they all are. Unfortunately, some things happen only in real life and not online.' For her part, Hewitt also shut down rumors of bad blood between the two. 'I haven't seen Sarah,' she told Vulture. 'Literally, we've not talked since I saw her at 18 years old when the first movie came out. That's why it's so funny to me. People were like, 'Say something back.' And I'm like, 'What am I going to say? I've not seen her.' On my side, we're good. I have no idea where this is coming from.' Solve the daily Crossword

JD Vance's silence on Epstein after previous demand for 'list' drives MAGA mad in dire signs for 2028
Vice President JD Vance continues his silence on the ongoing controversy surrounding the administration's handling of the Jefferey Epstein case, despite a long history of advocating for more government transparency. Attorney General Pam Bondi released findings from the Justice Department last week claiming that Epstein did not have a 'client list' and there were no more files related to his death in prison or the sex trafficking investigation against him. Prior to taking office as vice president, Vance publicly expressed his belief that a client list existed - and that the public deserved to see it. 'What possible interest would the US government have in keeping Epstein's clients secret? Oh…,' he wrote on December 30, 2021 on X. At the time, Vance reposted prominent MAGA supporter Jack Posobiec's comments highlighting a report and wrote, 'The DOJ and Ghislaine Maxwell 's lawyers have made a deal that her 'little black book' of contacts will never be made public.' That prompted Vance to rant at the journalists failing to grill politicians hard enough about the Epstein files. 'If you're a journalist and you're not asking questions about this case you should be ashamed of yourself,' he said. 'What purpose do you even serve? I'm sure there's a middle class teenager somewhere who could use some harassing right now but maybe try to do your job once in a while.' Vice President JD Vance checks his phone before his interview with Bret Baier, right, on FOX News Channel's Special Report with Bret Baier at the FOX News bureau in Washington. The Vice President also raised Epstein's case in September 2021. 'Remember when we learned that our wealthiest and most powerful people were connected to a guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring? And then that guy died mysteriously in a jail? And now we just don't talk about it,' he wrote, sharing an article published by The Week titled: 'The Jeffrey Epstein case is why people believe in Pizzagate. A mysterious cabal of billionaires and politicians and Hollywood bigwigs running an international sex trafficking ring — ridiculous, right?' Vance said he thought about the contents of the article 'about once a month.' As early as 2021, posts made to X seen by prove Vance staunchly believed a client list existed - and that the public deserved to see it When he was running for vice president, Vance also spoke to comedian and podcaster Theo Von about the importance of releasing the Epstein list. 'Seriously, we need to release the Epstein list. That is an important thing,' he said in his interview with Von in November 2024 that now has over seven million views on YouTube. The vice president's office did not respond to a Daily Mail request for comment. President Trump dismissed a reporter last week who asked him about the Epstein files. 'Are you still talking about Epstein? This guy has been talked about for years. Are people still talking about this creep? I can't believe you're asking a question about Epstein,' he said dismissively. Critics of the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein case raged against the vice president on social media. 'If you're the VP and you're not asking questions about this case you should be ashamed of yourself. What purpose do you even serve?' wrote one critic on social media. 'I firmly believe this just cost him any chance of the 2028 election, if he decided to run,' wrote another critic. Vance spent the weekend with his family at Disneyland, publicly distancing himself from the controversy that threatened to divide Trump's cabinet. He also shared social media photos of hiking with the Marines at Camp Pendleton. Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino threatened to quit his position over the Justice Department's handling of the Epstein files, demanding that either Bondi lose her job. But the president revealed Sunday that he had spoken with Bongino and said he believed the former MAGA podcaster would remain in the administration. 'I spoke to him today,' Trump said. 'Dan Bongino, very good guy. I've known him a long time. I've done his show many, many times. He sounded terrific, actually.' A White House insider told the Daily Mail that behind the scenes, Vance also spoke to Bongino and FBI Director Kash Patel urging them to stick around despite their disappointment with the handling of Bondi's review. Vance also plans to visit Pennsylvania on Wednesday to tout the benefits of President Donald Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill' in an attempt to refocus the public conversation on the economy. Trump also lectured his supporters on social media for their focus on Epstein, dismissing it as a distraction. 'What's going on with my 'boys' and, in some cases, 'gals?,' Trump posted to Truth Social on Saturday afternoon. 'They're all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We're on one Team, MAGA, and I don't like what's happening.' On Monday, the White House indicated that any further comments on the Epstein case would be subject to Trump's approval.
