Jennifer Love Hewitt responds to claims she's 'unrecognisable': Aging in Hollywood is really hard

Approaching four decades as a working actress, Jennifer Love Hewitt has matured in the limelight. The Party of Five actress, now 44, admits that "aging is a privilege" she is lucky to experience. "It means you're here. It means you're still living it," she explained, adding that every face line or indent is an indication that you've experienced emotion. "But aging in Hollywood is really hard. It's really hard because you can't do anything right," she told Michael Rosenbaum on his podcast Inside of You. The topic hit close to home, as Hewitt shared that after a recent haircut, she had been subjected to some nasty headlines suggesting she looked starkly different. Hewitt shared her look on social media, opting to filter the picture since she wasn't wearing any make-up. "I really gave it no thought," she added of the decision. "The picture ended up somewhere. And a bunch of people were like, ‘Jennifer Love Hewitt is unrecognisable, and so she's gone to filters because she doesn't want us to know how bad she actually looks now in her 40s.' And I was like, this is crazy. Right? I realized," she lamented, "I can do no right." Hewitt suggested that it's an impossible task to ignore the negative commentary as well.
