In response to all the “fat” abuse she’s received over the weekend, after some rather unflattering bikini shots of her holidaying in Hawaii appeared on the web, Jennifer Love Hewitt has stated that: “being a size 2 doesn’t make you fat!”
The Ghost Whisperer star said she was upset at the claims made by countless gossip blogs (Staralicious included), but not for herself, but for other young women struggling with their body weight.
“I’ve sat by in silence for a long time now about the way women’s bodies are constantly scrutinized,” Hewitt explained on her own blog. “To set the record straight, I’m not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image.”
Despite being called fat (and a lot of other unsavoury names), Jennifer insists that she loves her body, and encouraged other “big-boned” girls to do the same.
“Like all women out there should, I love my body,” she said. “I know what I look like, and so do my friends and family.”
Hewitt added: “A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn’t make you beautiful. … To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini – put it on and stay strong.”
