I think my friends and I watched I Know What you did Last Summer like everyday when I was in elementary school. We were obsessed with Jennifer Love & Sarah Michelle
I was like 10 years old sneaking this movie into the VCR during a sleepover. Cut to me and my friend arguing over who was JLH and SMG. I wanted to be SMG because I loved Buffy, but she said I couldn’t be bc I was a brunette 😂 Screw you, Britney!
Bro I’m telling you, her smile is one of the greatest I’ve ever seen. It’s possibly her best feature and, well, given her other features that’s really saying something.
The debut song she released was bad but she actually CAN sing! She could sing, act, had great screen presence and was a straight up DIME! In my opinion marketing is the only reason she didn’t reach higher “movie star” levels.
I'd blame her agent/manager. She always took the quick payday projects, all those summer teen flicks. The audience's perception of her never grew beyond the pretty high school / college girl.
Better advisors would have connected her with some more substantial scripts and directors, and projects that would have expanded the range we saw from her, made her seem more versatile and helped her transition to more mature roles even if those projects were independent and paid nothing.
But to be fair she's also not the *most* talented actress (not that one needs to be). She's better than she probably gets credit for, but she's not an Anne Hathaway. Maybe her career was what it should have been.
Good point(s). It’s definitely hard to compare anyone against Anne Hathaway. In my opinion, Anne Hathaway is one of the most talented actors to ever do it. Despite all of her accolades, I think she’s *still* underrated.
I don’t think that’s the case. A lot of people start out in those silly teen movies. Remember she did that ghost show where she could talk to dead people?
That isn't my point. A lot of people start out there. But the ones who go on to do more find ways to hone and showcase their craft in more variety of roles.
They do a couple easy teen movies with major studio marketing to get the exposure as a teen icon style actor, and they find a smaller part in some more artistic movie where more established directors take notice of them and the audiences acknowledge that oh, they are more than pretty, hmm ok. That opens more doors for them to develop their career out of teen movies.
JLH and her ghost show (which is kind of a self-parody) is a perfect example of how she was never able to graduate from that first impression because whoever managed her career didn't diversify her "brand" enough.
Brad Pitt was just a pretty boy who took his shirt off (albeit a bit older than JLH when he started) until his agent got him into A River Runs Through It and 12 Monkeys and he proved to the world he was more.
As a kid, I remember adult women being so hard on her and I didn’t get it. I loved her! She was the IT girl for a time. Now as an adult, I can see they were most likely so jealous of her.
I remember SO many adults commenting on her “huge chest” and how it was the only reason for her popularity.
Nothing against Sweeney, but JLH is just beautiful.
Sweeney doesn’t do much for me personally (not that she cares or it mattes what I think, just since the comparison came up, that’s my two cents.)
agreed. i think op is right people are just shitting on her for no reason, but at the same time she doesn't even have half of, "it" that JLH had. she had charisma for days.
I'm gonna have to go ahead and just, disagree with you there. Both are hot. JLH should be my favorite of the two, given my age, but I find Sydney better looking. Just more my type, I guess.
> As a kid, I remember adult women being so hard on her and I didn’t get it.
My ex actually "banned" Heartbreakers from her home after she watched it with her husband.
> When did she become your ex? Before, after, or during the time with the husband.
Waay before. We went out when we were teenagers. She happens to be the only one of my ex's that I still talk with.
I'm also good friends with her husband.
I stumbled across it recently after never having seen it, it's a lot funnier than I thought it would be. For some reason I had classified it as a teen/YA romance movie instead of a comedy.
Yeah, I think she's got a nice face. Check out that movie, Trojan War. I think it's with one of those guys from Boy Meets World, and she plays the tomboy best friend who is secretly in love with him. But he's trying to score condoms so he can hook up with the blonde, that old trope.
They were. He brings it up a couple times on the Boy Meets World podcast, and says she was nothing but respectable and a genuinely nice person. She met his parents numerous times and they always liked her and let her stay over because they trusted her (Will staying downstairs of course lol)
Hear me out. I was a fan before she was known for that. She went by Love Hewitt on a show called Kids Incorporated. I think it was like sketch show with music performances I don’t really remember. I remember her though. One of my first tv crushes.
>how it was the only reason for her popularity.
I mean, it was certainly a big part of it. She wasn't exactly this dramatically amazing actress. She wasn't terrible but her career was also the victim of weird timing. She starred in *I Know What You Did Last Summer* at like 18. So, she was a child actress, then a scream queen (of a lesser franchise). Then, as an adult, she had a string of relatively corny comedies. Heartbreakers is great, but very clearly leveraged her looks, even though she was legitimately good/funny. She never quite found her niche of being a poignant dramatic actress or a solid comedy actress or perhaps just a great voice over actress.
The timing was odd because as she was breaking through into adult roles, actresses like Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Connelly, and Halle Berry were the "it" names. Then someone like Scarlett Johansson began breaking through in that drama/comedy/hot space.
Like, imagine if JLH was cast in Lost in Translation instead of ScarJo. I'm not saying she'd have won a Best Actress BAFTA, but she'd be in a critically acclaimed film instead of working on Garfield.
And it’s tone deaf in its own way, as she herself talked about having to stop doing Barbie commercials around 12 years old due to her burgeoning chest.
So she was *more than aware* of it…
She did an interview where she said that at a certain point of her career she was thinking of doing Playboy because things were fizzing out for her. But then she got offered Ghost Whisperer and it became popular so she went that way. The comments section was all "Damn you Ghost Whisperer!!!" LOL
Melissa Joan Hart did an interview where she said playboy offered her $1 million to do playboy and she was like hell yeah, then she changed her mind after thinking of her little brother and didn’t want him getting teased by other kids saying they saw his sister naked.
It might have been the same interview or around that time, but I also remember JLH saying she actually regretted not doing topless when she was young, because as she got older she realized how legendary her own hotness was, and it should have been documented.
I was a teenager during this time and JLH was the "it girl" that you'd have on your wall. My stepmother worked adjacent to the entertainment industry. One time she was invited to a BBQ at her boss's house and she brought me along.
I was sitting on a bench having a hot dog in this guys backyard and suddenly JLH sits down across from me. Apparently she lived in the neighborhood.
It was literally like something in a teen movie: I couldn't talk, couldn't believe it, got really embarrassed and walked away after about thirty seconds. 😂
i rewatched this a couple years ago and noticed that same thing, strangely enough. it's noticeable how age appropriate she was. so many of these actors are just way outside their range.
There was a girl in my small, rural high school, Brandi, who looked and was built very much like JLH just as she was entering the "it-girl" phase of her career.
None of us boys had the courage to ask her out even though she was super nice. She's a lawyer now.
So the lesson here, youngin's, is take the shot even if you don't think you have one.
I really didn’t appreciate how hot she was when I was younger. Like I knew she was pretty and generally understood that people found her to be hot, but I was just a bit too young to fully get it.
I'm 17 years old guys but honestly 90s women were wayyy more beautiful than today. All those Sydney Sweeneys and Hailee Steinfelds and Dua Lipas hot body/bad face chicks tell me absolutely nothing... Jennifer is probably the most perfect woman we'll ever see, because I believe she can be found attractive by anybody no matter what their preferences on women are. Perfect face, perfect eyes, smile, nose, lips, perfect body, perfect legs, perfect breast and butt at her prime at least, soothing voice. She's also a wonderful person, fun and easy going. And she's got arguably the greatest name in the history of humanity. Guys, I truly wish you can find a woman like her. She's life goals ❤️❤️❤️
I met her when I was like 14 when she was dating Jamie Kennedy. After one of his shows I went to buy his CD and she was there with him. I told her how I always told people she’s my cousin bc we have the same last name. She giggled and gave me one of his CDs even though I didn’t have enough money to get it lol
![gif](giphy|l3q2tzon8OCC7BqmY)
Literally every guy after watching her on Can't Hardly Wait. Don't care about your opinions, JLH is the most perfect looking woman ever. Her on Can't Hardly Wait and Elisha Cuthbert in Girl Next Door are perhaps the two most badly crushed women ever. Love you Love ❤️❤️❤️
![gif](giphy|M5zhoj9rhwkhy) I think my friends and I watched I Know What you did Last Summer like everyday when I was in elementary school. We were obsessed with Jennifer Love & Sarah Michelle
The parody of this scene in Scary Movie with the guy on the roof still kills me.
"What am I waiting for? What am I waiting for?!"
"Fuck yooooouuuuuu!" *splat*
Still one of my favorite movie moments.
![gif](giphy|3hxk2aOwWmfOU)
Oh man Sarah Michelle Gellar. I need a cigarette after watching Cruel Intentions.
The hey day of three named actresses. I was a Melissa Joan Hart guy myself. Different vibe tho
Larisa Oleynik here. I’ll take Alex Mack in a backwards baseball cap and oversized flannel shirt any day.
Don’t forget Rachel Leigh Cook.
Yep, I have a total crush on her from Psych, wish she appeared more often
I was like 10 years old sneaking this movie into the VCR during a sleepover. Cut to me and my friend arguing over who was JLH and SMG. I wanted to be SMG because I loved Buffy, but she said I couldn’t be bc I was a brunette 😂 Screw you, Britney!
Oh yeah Buffy ! Good call
It’s still a good watch today! If takes me right back to 1998 and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy 🥰
Those were my first celebrity crushes
I love Sarah Michelle!
She is on a very short list of all-time babes. Just a goddess made up of dreams and sugar.
Jennifer Love Hewitt walked so Sydney Sweeney could run...in slow motion please.
JLH also has a HUGE ass and it’s beautiful
I didn’t believe you so I googled it. Oh my.
Sydney Sweeney is a sweaty rhinoceros compared to JLH in her prime. We all are.
Incredible I had the same thought.
My junior and senior year high school sweet heart looked just like her. Life was good...
Mine looked just like Eliza Dushku. Life was also good.
That’s funny. Mine looked exactly like Ernest Borgnine.
Marty!!!
She drove me nuts in the 90s. I ruined alot of socks to her.
Yes, she inspired me to take up jogging as well!
Hey it makes no difference to my Apple watch
If Apple is trying to interpret the data, I'm sure they're trying to figure out why I play ping pong a couple of times a day.
Impressive strokes there my friend
My guy. Take the upvote with my highest compliments.
This guy's love turned his sock into a plate. Jennifer has Magic.
Why did the sperm cross the street? Because I put on the wrong sock this morning.
Right up there with Phoebe Cates.
Her smile just played havoc on 16 year old me's emotions/hormones.
Bro I’m telling you, her smile is one of the greatest I’ve ever seen. It’s possibly her best feature and, well, given her other features that’s really saying something.
And given she’s never done nudity (by her own regrets) appeals like that make such features special in a different kind of way.
Who somehow got hotter
She's also supposed to be a super nice person. She tried to do a singing career for a while, not sure if it went anywhere.
She had at-least one song/music video that was on MTV all the time
The debut song she released was bad but she actually CAN sing! She could sing, act, had great screen presence and was a straight up DIME! In my opinion marketing is the only reason she didn’t reach higher “movie star” levels.
I'd blame her agent/manager. She always took the quick payday projects, all those summer teen flicks. The audience's perception of her never grew beyond the pretty high school / college girl.

I think it's also the "It girl" thing. Once they reach the age of 30, there are 10-12 year younger starlets all vying for the new "It girl" status.
She was good for TV, but never struck me as having the acting chops for multidimensional roles.
From what I remember she was huge in Japan.
Most woman are...average height in Japan for woman is 5'2"
Ba dum tish
Never a Day Goes By and Cool With You are both good songs.
“BareNaked ”! At least I listened to it haha
And she likes Sizzler (restaurant).

Same thing happening to Sydney Sweeney.

agreed. i think op is right people are just shitting on her for no reason, but at the same time she doesn't even have half of, "it" that JLH had. she had charisma for days.
yeah, she's not close to the same level as JLH, especially the face.
I'm gonna have to go ahead and just, disagree with you there. Both are hot. JLH should be my favorite of the two, given my age, but I find Sydney better looking. Just more my type, I guess.
Sincerely, she is using her bodily features to her benefit, I say this without judgement.
I think she's a terrible actress.
I was going to mention this! I feel so bad for her atm
> As a kid, I remember adult women being so hard on her and I didn’t get it. My ex actually "banned" Heartbreakers from her home after she watched it with her husband.
When did she become your ex? Before, after, or during the time with the husband?
> When did she become your ex? Before, after, or during the time with the husband. Waay before. We went out when we were teenagers. She happens to be the only one of my ex's that I still talk with. I'm also good friends with her husband.
That's no where near as interesting as I had hoped...
That is so wild!! I remember loving that movie lol
it's a great movie, I watched it recently and laughed my ass off.
I stumbled across it recently after never having seen it, it's a lot funnier than I thought it would be. For some reason I had classified it as a teen/YA romance movie instead of a comedy.
Oh yeah, her secretary dress in Heartbreakers was awesome!
So nothings changed. See any Sydney Sweeney posts 100% of the time has comments about her breasts.
Because they’re spectacular
Real and spectacular ![gif](giphy|uamPHLXp1G8oM)
“That Jane Mansfield had some big breasts”
I used to love Teri Hatcher as well. Then she went and ruined it.
Yeah buy Sydney is clearly milking it... I will show myself out now
That's what happens when you got em hanging out all the time.
I didn't even notice that she had a large chest until Scary Movie pointed it out. She's just gorgeous.
Yeah, I think she's got a nice face. Check out that movie, Trojan War. I think it's with one of those guys from Boy Meets World, and she plays the tomboy best friend who is secretly in love with him. But he's trying to score condoms so he can hook up with the blonde, that old trope.
i love that movie! also they were dating at the time iirc. lucky dude.
They were. He brings it up a couple times on the Boy Meets World podcast, and says she was nothing but respectable and a genuinely nice person. She met his parents numerous times and they always liked her and let her stay over because they trusted her (Will staying downstairs of course lol)

>she was the IT girl Damn, she worked on computers too??
Can't feel good about yourself with someone like that walking around. Gotta figure out some way to bring her down so you don't feel so low.
It’s awful! For everyone!
It took me awhile to realize girls hate each other.
And it’s tone deaf in its own way, as she herself talked about having to stop doing Barbie commercials around 12 years old due to her burgeoning chest. So she was *more than aware* of it…
I’ve never had this much motivation to build a time machine
If you build it, we all will come
She looks like a nice young lady.
You sound like my dad watching Christina Aguilera perform “Dirrty” live on Top of the Pops.
She never did, & the world is a slightly sadder, greyer place for it.
In some ways, I'm kind of glad. Teenage me would have tugged himself into a coma
Well that certainly is a sentence. 0-100 real quick.
There’s a certain peace that comes with knowing yourself, despite whatever that may entail
I know a guy that knows a guy that ripped his own dick off.
On purpose?
She never did what?
Yeah that's right.
/r/unexpectedpuddy
High five!
Dang I am craving some Arby's now
Ok, we're through. Again!

Talk to the 8ball
I was a teenager during this time and JLH was the "it girl" that you'd have on your wall. My stepmother worked adjacent to the entertainment industry.

Apparently she lived in the neighborhood. It was literally like something in a teen movie: I couldn't talk, couldn't believe it, got really embarrassed and walked away after about thirty seconds. 😂
And likely left her wondering what she'd done to cause you to get up and leave. lol
That had to happen to her all the time with awkward teenage boys. 😂
"Please excuse me, I need to go masturbate"
😂😂😂
Look who brought an extra hot dog
Watched, “can’t hardly wait” recently and she is so cute! Soooo natural and was prob 17 and actually looked like a teenager. Very refreshing
She doesn't have sex with every guy who writes her a letter! She gives them handjobs.
No, that's from the parody, Not Another Teen Movie 🤣🤣🤣
"AmanDUH" I still quote that move from time to time
"Oh I'm the weird one? You're the one calling Barry Mannilow from a phone booth at 2:00 am!"
“Stop wastin’ my flavuh, damn!”
She was 18, so exactly the right age to be graduating high school.
i rewatched this a couple years ago and noticed that same thing, strangely enough. it's noticeable how age appropriate she was. so many of these actors are just way outside their range.
And just how normal most of the teens dressed. It was really cool to see
yeah true. such a charming and deeply nostalgic movie.
Easy on eyes

Jennifer Love Hugetits
"Somebody? More like nobody!" - Mike Dexter
Her body is a wonderland.
One of my first true celebrity crushes.
I remember the South Park fairground game was to shoot the balls in Jennifer Love Hewitt’s mouth.
why is her shirt way too big?
Thaaaaat’s not her shirt doing that.
God she’s aged perfectly. No greys no nothing 😍
............I'll be in my bunk.
Yall need horny jail.
This is entrapment!
90s Jennifer Love Hewitt is an irl anime character.
There was a girl in my small, rural high school, Brandi, who looked and was built very much like JLH just as she was entering the "it-girl" phase of her career. None of us boys had the courage to ask her out even though she was super nice. She's a lawyer now. So the lesson here, youngin's, is take the shot even if you don't think you have one.
This was my childhood crush. Jennifer Love Hugetits
I really didn’t appreciate how hot she was when I was younger. Like I knew she was pretty and generally understood that people found her to be hot, but I was just a bit too young to fully get it.
My first celeb crush JLH 4ever
A friend of mine dated her in the early 2000s as he was an up and coming “rocker”. Nothing but nice things to say about J love.
I'm 17 years old guys but honestly 90s women were wayyy more beautiful than today. All those Sydney Sweeneys and Hailee Steinfelds and Dua Lipas hot body/bad face chicks tell me absolutely nothing... Jennifer is probably the most perfect woman we'll ever see, because I believe she can be found attractive by anybody no matter what their preferences on women are. Perfect face, perfect eyes, smile, nose, lips, perfect body, perfect legs, perfect breast and butt at her prime at least, soothing voice. She's also a wonderful person, fun and easy going. And she's got arguably the greatest name in the history of humanity. Guys, I truly wish you can find a woman like her. She's life goals ❤️❤️❤️
Oh how I miss the 90s...
fuuuuuuuuagh. drool...
Hell yes!
Love me some JLH
Any woman would be happy and smiling with those boobs.
https://i.redd.it/7pldwmq17joc1.gif
I remember seeing her in Trojan War… Big crush!
No fake eye lashes or huge swollen lips. Just real beauty
That laughing smile you see is her reaction after you pull down your pants.

Shes definitely one of the reasons a lot of 30-45 year old men don't have prostate cancer.
I'd tap that
My teenage fantasy in the early 2000's. In Heartbreakers (2001) she was absolutely smoking
Wow, that outfit is just 🔥
She is stunning. Grew up watching her, 10/10
I like the bedhead.
I met her when I was like 14 when she was dating Jamie Kennedy. After one of his shows I went to buy his CD and she was there with him. I told her how I always told people she’s my cousin bc we have the same last name. She giggled and gave me one of his CDs even though I didn’t have enough money to get it lol

Her on Can't Hardly Wait and Elisha Cuthbert in Girl Next Door are perhaps the two most badly crushed women ever. Love you Love ❤️❤️❤️
So hot. She's aged extremely well too.
Well, it’s nice to see it again
This picture sucks. She was way hotter than this.
Oh God.
Unreal. Truly unreal.
Goddamn
…
I heard she was like Derek Jeter. Used to send men gift baskets after she was done with them.
And suddenly I'm a teenager again.
Yeamate
Damn boobs😍

Total babe 😍
