“Aging in Hollywood is really hard because you can’t do anything right,” she explained on the “Inside of You With Michael Rosenbaum” podcast in December 2023.

Jennifer recalled one particular moment. “I was getting my hair done and I had not a stitch of makeup on so I threw on a filter. I really gave it no thought. A bunch of people were like, ‘Jennifer Love Hewitt is unrecognizable,’” about the photo.’

“And then another place was like, ‘She’s unrecognizable and so she’s gone to filters because she doesn’t want us to know how bad she actually looks now in her 40s,’” the star recalled, “And I was like, ‘This is crazy right?’”
