LoHew about an actor who has sleazy first-date tendencies. He whispered the guy's name, and Jennifer said he was sleazy with her, too! Who was it!?

The actor apparently showed up to an actress' house on the first date, and, after she opened the door, he asked if they could just have sex immediately, because he had to get up early the next day. When Leno told Jennifer who it was, she said that she went out with that guy, too, and he was equally gross with her.

Reviewing the list of celebrities (known celebrities, that is) that Jennifer Love Hewitt has dated, there were three actors who fit the bill:

  • Wilmer Valderrama
  • Stephen Dorff
  • John Cusack

Valderrama is a known womanizer, Dorff seems like he would be ballsy enough to make such requests, and Cusack, rumored to be a real grump, would probably be annoyed by having to go through the rigmarole of actually sitting through dinner and boring conversation to get to the sex when he knew he had an early call the next day.

My immediate guess is Valderrama, but the name that Jay says is really short and it sounds like it has an "s" toward the end. So John Cusack it is!

<![CDATA[Are TV's Favorite Juggsy Clairvoyants Doomed To Being Alone?]]> In a disconcerting trend for top-heavy actresses currently starring as fictional psychics in network primetime, Patricia Arquette and Jennifer Love Hewitt have left their significant others.

Medium star Arquette has filed for divorce from Hung star Thomas Jane, claiming "irreconcilable differences." The couple had a child together in 2003, and were married in the summer of 2006. There was no prenup.

Meanwhile, Ghost Whisperer star Love Hewitt has called off her engagement of a little over a year to Scottish fiancé Ross McCall, People reports:

"They broke up over the holidays and have ended their engagement," says a source close to the couple. "They're both really sad about this. Even their friends are surprised; they seemed really happy. Everyone just wants the best for both of them."

We're saddened by the news on both fronts, but remain confident that once they've worked through the heartbreak, both juggsy clairvoyants will have no trouble recalibrating their ghost-detecting racks to pick up on the frequency of an even more supernatural specter—quality unattached straight guys living in L.A.

<![CDATA[Jennifer Love Hewitt, Freddie Prinze Jr. Face Bomb-Making Charges For 'Delgo']]> Our crystal ball is known to break down occasionally, but rarely does a movie undercut our box-office guesses by more than 60%. And then came Delgo, whose implosion last weekend is truly, historically unprecedented.

Delgo's $916,000 gross is the lowest ever by a film that opened on more than 2,000 screens — 2,160 to be exact. Its $424 per-theater average means that some showings of the animated sci-fi fantasy in more competitive markets likely played to audiences of fewer than five people at a time. Last Friday's Defamer Attractions column foresaw $3.2 million for the movie, based on general tracking data and the probability that distributor Freestyle Releasing could at least break seven figures with a voice cast including Freddie Prinze Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt, Val Kilmer, Burt Reynolds, Malcolm McDowell, Chris Kattan, Kelly Ripa, Michael Clarke Duncan, and even posthumous work by Anne Bancroft.

But one cannot attribute a bomb of this magnitude to marketing and promotional failures alone. What really happened? Your theories are more than welcome below, but we think we may have traced the source to this uniquely unappetizing publicity still that will nevertheless look great on the Flopz™ Web site. Anyone got a better idea?

<![CDATA[Jennifer Love Hewitt Claims That 'Us' Cover Was a Big, Fat Surprise]]> Jennifer Love Hewitt found headlines last winter when unflattering paparazzi photos prompted her to cry, "To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini—put it on and stay strong." Sadly, it appeared that Hewitt then took advice from 30 Rock's Jack Donaghy ("She needs to lose thirty pounds or gain fifty. In between has no place in television"), for she re-emerged sharing her weight loss secrets on the cover of Us Weekly two months ago. Now, Hewitt tells TV Guide that the mixed message was just one innocent misunderstanding:

TVGuide.com: Having lashed back at the media about that "controversy" [Hewitt blogged, "I've sat by in silence for a long time now about the way women's bodies are constantly scrutinized.... I'm not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image"], did you hesitate about participating in that Us Weekly cover story about your 18-lb. weight loss?
Hewitt: You know what's funny is I didn't participate in it. Everybody thinks I did, but…. They talked to my trainer, who I think was just trying to say nice things and it kind of went on. I literally got a phone call saying, "P.S. You're going to be on the cover of Us, and they're talking about you losing weight." I was like, "What?!" [Laughs]

TVGuide.com: I myself thought, "How could she do that, having criticized the media for obsessing on body image?"
Hewitt: I know, and that's what everybody keeps concentrating on, but I had nothing to do with it. I didn’t go lose weight because of that. I'm not a "work out" kind of girl — I'd rather shop or see a movie! — but I got this "bug" in me to run a marathon for my 30th birthday [next Feb. 21]. I started training, and when you're doing anything like that which you're not used to, you drop weight. When I heard all the compliments and nice things, it made me nervous. I didn't want people to think what I said [last year] wasn't true, because I stand by what I said. People's bodies are going to change. Sometimes you're going to go up, sometimes you're going to go down.... I wish people would stop talking about it all together, to be quite honest.

Perhaps, we might suggest, she should stop giving interviews about it then? Or, at the very least, stop staging paparazzi photos where she "trains" in full makeup? Sorry, Love: we're thin on sympathy around here.

<![CDATA[Jennifer Love Hewitt Is Proud of Her Curves, Just Not Proud Enough To Keep Them]]> After paparazzi photos last winter revealed that she had a fuller figure than your usual Olsen twin, Ghost Whisperer star Jennifer Love Hewitt fought back, taking to the pages of People to declare, "Stop calling me fat!" Donning the weighty mantle passed down from Tyra Banks, Love Hewitt said, "To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini—put it on and stay strong." Or, alternatively, lose all that weight and sell your secrets to Us magazine!

In the new issue of Us Weekly, on newsstands now, the 32-year-old shows off the new body she got after just 10 weeks and her trainer reveals to Us exclusively how she lost 18 pounds.

..."With her, it's not, 'I want to look good in that dress,'" trainer Stevie Sant'Angelo tells Us. "She wanted to start moving around because she thought it would make her feel better.

"She told me, 'They said some rude, mean things, but that's not why I wanted to change,'" Sant'Angelo says.

Certainly not! Why, who would have implied such a thing? Rest assured, J. Love, no one thinks you dieted down because of those hurtful comments. The publicity, on the other hand...

<![CDATA[This Week In Tabloids: Suri Battles Shiloh, Jamie Lynn Gets Cheated On, Britney's OK!]]> Welcome back to Midweek Madness, in which we digest the celebrity gossip in the weeklies so you don't have to. This week, the tabloids have the dreaded BABY FEVER. There are celebribabes on three covers, including the spawn of Britney. Jennifer Love Hewitt and her body get one cover, and Jamie Lynn Spears gets the other, with In Touch breaking the news that her 19-year-old baby daddy has a 28-year-old lover named Kelli. Intern Margaret assists as we strain to excrete what we've consumed in OK!, Life & Style, In Touch and Star, after the jump.



Star
"Little Princesses." Intern Margaret says, "The story is summed up on the cover." It's six pages comparing growing up Shiloh Jolie-Pitt to growing up Suri Cuise. (Shiloh: Hand-me-downs, cookie monster, twin dollies, free spirit. Suri: $$$ Designer duds, still a bottle baby, security blanket, calls the shots.) After reading about who likes Nutella and Meerkat Manor, here's what you glean: Shiloh's the down-to-earth kid whose mom cuts her hair and who runs around the backyard getting dirty, while Suri gets salon cuts, throws a fit if her blanket is left behind and has a closet full of expensive dresses. Suri picks out her clothes herself, except when the nanny helps. Moving on: Christina Applegate has been dating Martyn Lenoble for several months and she wants to have his baby. So even though she has breast cancer, she doesn't want to have chemo or radiation until she gives birth. Some doctor who doesn't treat her says pregnancy can help some early-stage breast cancer. Next: While in Los Cabos, Mexico, John Mayer disappeared for a 25 minute walk with a young lady and came back smoking a cigar. There are hot tub pix. The mag says: "The notorious ladies man may have sparked the stogie to celebrate a flash of freedom far from his 39-year-old girlfriend and her baby dreams." Egads. Are Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds planning to get hitched this winter after ScarJo's birthday? The mag says will it be a traditional Jewish ceremony in NYC. Madonna is mad at Britney because the pictures of Brit's "surprise" video for the Sticky & Sweet tour got leaked online and Madge thinks Brit's camp is to blame. Blind item! "Which hot TV actor was lying when he said he wasn't dating a certain reality star? Source say she recently visited him on set, where they spent 2 hours flirting with each other." Guesses? Lastly: Reese lost 20 lbs. "for Jake."
Grade: F (anal fistula)


Life & Style
"Hollywood's Cutest Kids." An 11-page "special" with lots of pictures of celebrity babies. Suri Cruise gets a 2-page spread about going to The Little Mermaid on Broadway and going bowling in New York. All of the kids get tags; for instance: Maddox is "the daredevil," Zahara is "the globe-trotter," Apple is "The Clotheshorse." Valentina Pinault, Salma Hayek's kid, is "The Accessorizer." She is 11 months old. Moving on: Lindsay Lohan thinks of the Ronsons as "the family she never had" because they are close to each other and not fucked up. She also changed her Facebook religion status to "I'm converting" so now there's speculation that she will become Jewish! Slow news summer. Next: Angelina's on a "race to get ready" for Brad Pitt's movie premiere August 27th. The movie is Burn After Reading and the mag claims Angie "wants to look like a trophy wife" on the red carpet so she's trying to lose 20 lbs. Insane on so many levels! There are newborn twins at home in addition to like a posse of other kids. Are we really supposed to believe she is worrying about her red carpet weight? Fuck.
Grade: F, but B if you LOVE baby pix. (self-correcting rectal prolapse)


Us Weekly
"18 Lbs In 10 Weeks!" Jennifer Love Hewitt exclusive! There's a different picture from a different angle inside the magazine and her body looks different. Not as whittled down. In the six-page story, the mag talks to her trainer and discovers — shocker — that Love Hewitt has been working out more and eating less. If you're interested in her exact diet and workout plan, it's there, in all of its boring detail. (No carbs after 3pm.) Next: Are Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer headed for a breakup? (Did it already happen?) There are pictures of him in a hot tub with some chicks, looking smug and smoking a cigar. Us also calls out Star and OK!'s "fake news" for running Jen/John baby and marriage stories last week. Also inside: In a 4-page story interview with Lauren and Lo about The Hills, the reporter compliments LC's runny mascara in the season 4 trailer. Lauren responds by naming the mascara and eyeliner she was wearing that day, which happen to be Avon, the company she reps. Ooh! A picture of the transgendered contestant on the upcoming cycle of America's Next Top Model! Her name is Isis (Fig. 1). Lastly, Ali Lohan has, um, filled out. (Fig. 2)
Grade: D- (anal abscess)


OK!
"Britney Tells All ABout Her Boys And Her New Life." Brit's "first interview in 2 years" is 8 pages long, with new pictures of Jayden and whatshisface wearing white tuxedoes in the backyard. Britney is wearing a white dress but it's like, a bikini cover-up that you can see through and the top is split from sternum to belly. The story is filled with the humdrum details of Brit's daily life: She reads the boys Berenstein Bears books. There's kiddie artwork on the fridge. She makes them pancakes. Intern Margaret says, "It's chock full of details, but they're details you don't care about. She seems healthy." Brit says she has a good relationship with her mom now and and appreciates her more. It ends on a hopeful though frightening note: Britney is writing a lot of songs for her new album. Next: The first line of the "Suri & The City" story reads, "Move over Carrie Bradshaw, there's a new trendsetter in town!" More on ScarJo's wedding: Even though Scarlett has said she has no immediate plans to get married, she was spotted reading InStyle Weddings & Brides, and an spy says "You could tell that she had earmarked pages." Plus! She totally wore white to a movie premiere! Lastly: "Is Lindsay A Faux-Mosexual?" She was seen flirting with guys. She's also "the aggressive one" in her relationship with Sam.
Grade: C- (anal fissure)


In Touch
"Jamie Lynn Betrayed." The mag tracked down Kelli Dawson, 28, who claims she had a relationship with 19-year-old Casey Aldridge, 17-year-old Jamie Lynn's fiancé and baby daddy. Kelli, 28, yes, 28 years old, is photographed in virginal white wearing a wooden cross around her neck. She says: "I still love him and I think he loves me." They were still sleeping together when JLS was six months pregnant with Casey's baby. Kelli says, "I see him all the time, at least once a week." They live in the same town. "I think that he's trapped," Kelli sighs. She also says: "When I see Jamie Lynn doing interviews and talking about how happy she is with Casey, it seems so fake. She is trying to paint a pretty picture, but it's messy art." Truth! Moving on: The "Jen And John Take A Break" story has more hot tub pix. Page 6 of this issue has a poll question, "Are you surprised that Britney hasn't had sex in 7 months?" (Fig. 3) It makes little sense until you get to page 56, where you find a story called "Seven Months Without Sex!" So basically, Britney's been working out instead of getting laid. Also she's been living with her dad. Dr. Drew says: "With bipolar, you become hypersexual. Before Britney began treatment, sleeping around with different men could have been the result of the manic state she was in." Britney joked to a friend: "How do you make out with a guy while your dad watches?" Next: Nicole and Joel have hit a rough patch. She's living in his house in Glendale and feels likes she's stuck in the suburbs. She wants to move back to Hollywood! Also, is her baby daddy helping enough? While on tour, Joel said: "It's hard to be on the road, but I have a great girl and she takes care of everything." Lastly: Guy Ritchie gave Madonna a $100,00 Rolex Masterpiece in tricolor 18K gold, surrounded by 42 brilliant baguette cut diamonds, the "ultimate timepiece."
Grade: C (hemorrhoids)

<![CDATA[The Esquire Map To Jennifer Love Hewitt's Dating History]]> Jennifer Love Hewitt, whose womanly allure has been well chronicled, is no slouch in the dating department. She's been linked to hotties near and far, including talk show hosts Craig Ferguson [Yum. -Ed.], and Carson Daly, teen heartthrobs Joey Lawrence and Wilmer Valderrama, rising stars Patrick Wilson and Kip Pardue, singers John Mayer and LFO's Rich Cronin, and last, but certainly not least, Ross McCall (her now-fiance). So it's no surprise that Jennifer was asked to contribute to Esquire's regular recurring feature "Ten Things You Don't Know About Women," in which well-known ladies offer up advice on how to deal with the fairer sex. Looking at Jennifer's column, we wondered: Which one of the men mentioned above inspired her advice or earned her ire? Our guesses, after the jump.



Thing You Don't Know About Women #1: "PMS is not a lame excuse to be able to yell at you. It's a great excuse."
Who It's About: John Mayer. Wouldn't you want an excuse to yell at him, too?

Thing You Don't Know About Women #2: "We really can pump our own gas. It's just that we've got this fantasy of you as a '30s-era full-service station attendant. You'd look so cute in the hat."
Who It's About: Patrick Wilson. He would look cute in any hat. Or without any hat. Or without any clothes...

Thing You Don't Know About Women #3: "We're not complimented when you call your ex a slut. She dated you, too. So what are we?"
Who It's About: Carson Daly. He was engaged to Tara Reid. Nuff said!

Thing You Don't Know About Women #4: "We're smart enough to know that smell is always the dog."
Who It's About: Craig Ferguson. He looks gassy.

Thing You Don't Know About Women #5: "Yes, we can dish it out."
Who It's About: Wilmer Valderrama. He was probably skeezing on other starlets all the time (see Lohan, Lindsay; Moore, Mandy) and deserved a stern talking to.

Thing You Don't Know About Women #6: "No, we can't take it."
Who It's About: Wilmer again. Bet he has a sass mouth.

Thing You Don't Know About Women #7: "We want to raise children. We just don't want you to be one of them."
Who It's About: LFO's Rich Cronin, solely because he was behind the lyrics: "New Kids On The Block, had a bunch of hits/ Chinese food makes me sick." Those had to be written by someone with the mentality of a seven year old.

Thing You Don't Know About Women #8: Women are meant to talk and men to listen. We don't want to be fixed; we want to be heard.
Who It's About: Kip Pardue. The insouciant smirk always plastered to his face makes us think he wouldn't be the best listener.

Thing You Don't Know About Women #9: "When we ask if you've had any work done, it's because we want to know what our kids will really look like."
Who It's About: Carson Daly. Have you seen his face recently? He looks like an entirely different person.

Thing You Don't Know About Women #10: "When we ask you how we look, it's okay to lie; when we ask you how she looks, you better lie."
Who It's About: Ross McCall. This is advice he should keep with him for the future.

<![CDATA[Jennifer Love Hewitt's ass, the now-infamous...]]> hewitt-people-s.jpgJennifer Love Hewitt's ass, the now-infamous celebrity hindquarters that recently found itself at the center of a cellulite-related tabloid scandal, has politely refused Playboy's generous offer to correct the recent paparazzi-inflicted indignity by lending the rump its legendary, dimple-eradicating Photoshop and soft-lighting services. The magazine, however, is still holding out hope that ongoing negotiations with the rep for the actress's less media-shy breasts will be more fruitful. [ITW]

<![CDATA[The Week In Jennifer Love Hewitt's Ass]]>
Unquestionably, Jennifer Love Hewitt's ass has seen better weeks. Its "hang" has been discussed in great detail on The View, it's been forced onto the cover of People against its will, and the celebrity-obsessed media, always ready to descend like cellulite-craving vultures the minute even an inch of slightly dimpled skin is exposed, have continued to ignore its size 2 owner's public plea for privacy during these difficult times. Current TV laments this sorry state of affairs, compiling two-and-a-half jam-packed minutes of all the rump-related coverage we've been subjected to over the previous five days; perhaps now that we've all gotten this out of our collective system, Hewitt's embattled buttocks can finally know some peace.

<![CDATA[Leave Jennifer Love Hewitt's Ass Alone!]]>
Following yesterday's penetrating discussion in which The View's couchbound thinktank dissected the "hang" and cellulite-to-dimple-free-tissue ratio on display in some unflattering paparazzi photos of Jennifer Love Hewitt's bikini-clad ass, we'd hoped that Whoopi and the gang the matter to bed for good. This week's People, however, gives the embattled rump no quarter; in a cynical, sensationalist move, the magazine has splayed the unfairly persecuted size two's cheeks across its glossy cover, a cynical, sensational move that ensures that the "LOVE HEWITT'S TRUNK: SEXY AND HEALTHY OR TOO FULL OF JUNK? " debate will rage on at least until the supermarket checkout racks are replenished with new tabloid product next Wednesday.

<![CDATA[The Ladies Of 'The View' Debate Jennifer Love Hewitt's Ass]]>
Never ones to shy away from incisive discussion of the most pressing issues of the day, the ladies of The View tackled the sensitive, hot-button topic of Jennifer Love Hewitt's ass, an embattled posterior famously made the latest casualty of the celebrity/paparazzi war by the combination of a zoom lens, less-than-optimal lighting conditions, and an unflattering bikini bottom.

As Hewitt has publicly decreed the disputed junk in her trunk would be unavailable for comment after decrying the widespread persecution of size 2s by the tabloid press, the show's hosts were left to debate the widely circulated photographs—was there a "little extra" hanging? Is "hanging" even the right word for what was going on there?—without the participation of the concerned parties. Luckily, a TV doctor who's had previous experience in these matters was on hand to lend her expert opinion, providing the kind of perspective that infrequent swimsuit-photo-victims Whoopi, Joy and Sherri couldn't be expected to supply on their own.

<![CDATA['ET' Amassing Celebrity Signatures For Giant Owen Wilson Get Well Card]]> travolta-hairspray.jpgIf there's one bright spot to the massive, black thundercloud hanging over Hollywood this week, it comes in the form of an outpouring of love and genuine sympathy for Owen Wilson—not just from his fans, but from fellow celebrities, who know first hand of the inner turmoil that can accompany being permanently strapped into the fame machine, and who would go to great lengths to inform Entertainment Tonight's cameras of how much they are pulling for him in his time of need:

"I don't know what happened," JANE SEYMOUR says of OWEN WILSON's reported suicide attempt, "but I know he's a great guy and this too shall pass...He has a great family and people who love him," she says. "He'll be okay."
Other stars have also come out sending their well-wishes to the popular actor. "We're with you," KELLY PRESTON said. "If you need anything, call us, seriously."

"Call us Owen, we love you," her husband JOHN TRAVOLTA added.

"I just hope he gets better fast," AISHA TYLER said.

"We're all thinking of you," JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT said. "You're such a talent. Stay strong and tough. Lots of love and stay well."

Like yesterday's love-affirmation from Bernie Brillstein and Tom Arnold, these good wishes are almost certain to comfort a recuperating Wilson, who'll more than likely receive them this evening when he tunes into the syndicated celebrity news magazine from his hospital bed to help get his mind off things. Even so, after learning from a mental health professional of the dangers of irresponsibly throwing around terms like "succeeded" and "failed," we're now hypersensitive to word choice; we only hope their well-meaning entreaties to "get better" and "stay well" won't place unnecessary, value-labeled stress on the patient. A healthier approach was that of the Travoltas: All Wilson really needs to know right now is that his friends are there for him, and that if he calls them up asking for a cup of mental-health-inducing vitamins, they'll be on his doorstep, no questions asked.

<![CDATA[Love Hewitt's Fired Managers Can't Hardly Wait To Get Commissions They're Owed]]>
It's always a sad affair when the relationship between high-earning talent and their people sours to the point that litigation becomes necessary, but at least the lawyers for Handprint Entertainment, the management company currently suing Ghost Whisperer star Jennifer Love Hewitt for money they believe they're owed, are having some fun with it. In addition to the zingers about Hewitt "having troubles resolving unfinished business with the living" and "listening to the tortious whispers of her new manager" you can see excerpted above from the complaint posted at THR ESQ, there's also one claiming she "knows what she did last season" in not turning over the 10 percent the prodigiously breasted actress "racked"* up in commisions.

[*We may have made the last part up, which probably would've put the wisecracking legal team in contempt of court.]

<![CDATA[Representation For Jennifer Love Hewitt's Rack Currently Seeking Endorsement Deals]]>
After the somber mood of that last post, we thought everyone could use a little cheering up, which we were going to elicit through highly manipulative but nearly foolproof means: posting this photo of a baby otter from the LAT, and calling it a day. But then we stumbled upon something even more delightful: a bra commercial starring recent Oscars fundraiser fuddy-duddy Jennifer Love Hewitt, and prominently featuring her legendary, paranormal-activity-channeling rack. The ad's plot: Rack has rock n' roll attitude! Because Rack can't get comfy! Rack needs the Hanes All-Over Comfort Bra! Phew—Rack's happy now. (For a fascinating look at how this all came together, watch this behind-the-scenes video.) With their tagline downgraded from "Wait 'til we get our Hanes on you," to the somewhat less sexual-assaulty-sounding, "Look who we've got our Hanes on now," we think you'll find Hanes's latest campaign the perfect, perfectly SFW way to kick off your breast-ogling weekend early.

<![CDATA[Defamer Party Report: Jennifer Love Hewitt Flees Abbey The Instant Her Contractual Obligation Is Finished]]> lovehewitt-oscars.jpgAn operative who attended last night's Oscar viewing party and fundraiser at The Abbey sends in this report, where television's Ghost Whisperer demonstrated an aloofness and general lack of Oscars spirit that set hundreds of Gay Whisperers' tongues wagging, while Joe "I Will Trade You This Fine Girls Gone Wild T-Shirt For a Lifetime Of Shame And Humiliation" Francis impressively demonstrated how he he can find eager female (at least they looked female) companionship anywhere—even at WeHo's premiere sausage factory:

somehow i got invited to go to the SBE oscar party at the abbey last night, "hosted" by jennifer love hewitt. anyway, j.love was in a cordoned off section of the tent, and her "handler" (unfashionable overweight woman with a clipboard) made sure the plebes did not approach her. literally the second they announced best picture, she was ushered out of the event - her entourage surrounded her and she held her head down and put her hand over her face in a "don't look at me in the eyes"-type gesture to the 1000+ black-tie attendees who paid a shitload of money to go to the event (which raised money for APLA).
even though all the other "luminaries" (lance bass and joe francis, for example) meandered into the bar portion of the abbey after the oscars and mingled until 2am, j.love disappeared the moment her obligation was over. it really says something when JOE FRANCIS outclasses jennifer love hewitt. maybe she had another event to go to, maybe she was sick, whatever — everyone noticed how bizarre it was. also, quite bizarre to see women throw themselves at joe francis... in a gay bar. other than j.love, just the usual famous-for-weho crowd, the jai rodriguezes and lance basses of the world, the gays who aren't famous enough to get into the elton john party. no reichen in sight.

Frankly, we have no idea what could have gotten into Love Hewitt, who once doled out mashed potatoes with a smile at the L.A. Mission without the need for any unfashionably overweight, clipboard-wielding handlers. Perhaps her sunny and charitable disposition had been steadily eroded by the monstrously overlong telecast; alternately, the evening might have gotten off to the wrong start when, as she was being escorted towards her VVIP section, a tipsy Francis leaned over to the admirably beracked actress and generously offered to build an entire DVD around her physical attributes, "You know—once they cancel the ghost-talking thing and you want to pick up an easy paycheck between gigs."

The cantankerous Joe "It's The Dealers Fault" Eberhardt already has a scapegoat primed and ready if sales numbers for the new Sebring convertible unveiled at the LA Auto Show don't quite meet with expectations, and scapegoat, thy name is Jennifer Love Hewitt. That's right, because according to Joltin' Joe's comments at the LA unveiling:

"We think we've got a real hit on our hands. But what we think, doesn't really matter...what counts here is what the people in sunny Southern California think of our new Sebring convertible. So, we decided to conduct a focus group. A focus group of one. That one, is someone who's been a star...since...17 years ago, and who knows what Southern Californians look for in a convertible...Jennifer Love Hewitt!"
Isn't it just like a car exec to already have a scapegoat planned and ready to go in case of trouble? But seriously, who would have thought it'd be JLH — we mean, she seems so kind and likable — but still, it's hard to argue with a comment like that whereby Eberhardt makes it clear she's the only one he's answering to on something as critical as design and options. Say it ain't so, Joe! At least he's shown us how the hard-top goes up and down in the second video we've got below.

<![CDATA['Can't Hardly Wait' Star Mugged, Allegedly Recognized]]> TMZ reports that Can't Hardly Wait star Ethan Embry was mugged at gunpoint in his Studio City driveway on Sunday night, but rather than just accept the powerlessness of victimhood, allegedly returned to the scene of the crime with a firearm to seek his own brand of semicelebrity vengeance:

TMZ has confirmed the "Can't Hardly Wait" star told police that two men recognized him from his film and TV roles, and robbed him and a female in his driveway. The thugs allegedly stole Embry's wallet containing $400, a watch, and threatened the woman.

As the men fled in a silver SUV, one eyewitness tells TMZ that Ethan raced into his house, emerged with a handgun and fired three rounds — though it is unclear whether they were in the air or toward the vehicle. Police, however, refused to confirm this information to TMZ.

We suppose that we'll have to wait until someone obtains the police report to see a transcription of the moment of awkwardness that transpired between the muggers and Embry when they realized they were in the act of robbing someone they vaguely recognized, cruelly prolonging the handover of the wallet until one of the crooks finally decided that coming up with "that guy from the Jennifer Love Hewitt thing who isn't Seth Green" was a good enough attempt at puzzling out their victim's credit list to allow them to complete the crime.

<![CDATA[Jennifer Love Hewitt To Play The World's Most Unconvincing Hooker]]> jennifer-love-hewitt-grab.jpgJuggsy TV ghost-whisperer Jennifer Love Hewitt doesn't just sit around on her hands and wait for studios to offer her hooker housewife roles. She goes out and finds hooker housewife roles:

Jennifer Love Hewitt plans to star in and produce a fact-based feature about a hooker housewife from Texas.

Her LoveSpell Entertainment production company has acquired the rights to "She Had Brains, a Body, and the Ability to Make Men Love Her," an article that appeared in the January issue of Texas Monthly.

The article, which was written by Katy Vine, relates the story of a 22-year-old housewife and former homecoming queen in Odessa, Texas, who became one of the city's most popular hookers until she, her co-workers and 68 prominent Odessa residents were arrested in a scandal that shook the city.

LoveSpell envisages the project as a comedy.

Defamer envisages the hooker eventually developing problems with an eating disorder and domestic violence, then quickly being acquired by the Lifetime network.
