OC Covers | Jennifer Love- Hewitt Opens Up About Her Body Critics in June 2013 Women’s Running Magazine

Actress Jennifer Love Hewitt is the June 2013 cover girl for Women’s Running Magazine. Inside, “The Client List” star opens up about why fitness is so important to her life, criticism of her curvaceous figure, and more.

On the constant criticism of her curves:

“I do find that as a curvy girl, as I guess I’ve sort of been deemed, I don’t think you want to run your curves off, because then you’re just not yourself. But it definitely helps your butt, that’s for sure. It helps with the badonk-a-donk!”

On the pressures of her body:

“I’m an actress, I live in L.A., I work in Hollywood. But I’ve learned that if you’re too skinny, they’ll say something about it. If you’re not skinny enough, they’ll say something about it. I just try to feel good in my own skin as much as I can.”
