We all enjoy talking about the latest celebrity gossip over dinner, lunch, the water cooler at work, and a bevy of other places where this stuff seems to feed our desire for dirt of overpaid, pampered celebs -at least that’s how many of us view them, whether that’s the reality in every case or not. The same is true of the recent media blitz on some bikini photos of the notoriously voluptuous Jennifer Love Hewitt, lovingly referred to by her fans as “Love”.

Hewitt was photographed frolicking in the water on a beach in a darkly colored bikini, and she didn’t look like what everyone obviously thinks celebrities should look like, stick figures with nary an ounce of fat on their bodies, a tanned and taut body, and no gut. Well, Jen was modeling a bit of a more shapely figure, a little bit of a but and extra around the belly area, and the media just had a hey day with it.

I’m not even a fan of Ms. Hewitt’s movie or TV work, but I had to come to her defense on this one, because although she did infer that she’s a size two in her retort to the media hale storm (and I don’t think by looking at the pics that she is a size two), I do feel bad for her because I understand that as a woman, our bodies seem to be cosntantly changing.

I know I myself have a fluctuating weight many times. I can fluctuate between the same five and ten pounds for a couple months at a time, and it never feels good when I’m on the up side, I can’t even imagine adding to that with the media in my face taking pictures. That is what celebs signed up for though, so I guess it’s to be expected!
