Jennifer Love Hewitt received a wave of comments on her social media after a recent video sparked rumors of possible plastic surgery. The 44-year-old actress responded to the criticism in an unexpected and refreshing way, further impressing her followers.
The craze started when the “Ghost Whisperer” star’s hairstylist @nikkilee901 posted a video on Instagram showing off a dramatic hair transformation. In the clip, Jennifer was seen sporting a chic bob with stylish curtain bangs and a rich mahogany brown color.
The hairstylist captioned the post, “Spiced things up a bit,” accompanied by a red chili pepper emoji. While many fans applauded Jennifer’s new look with comments like, “You look amazing Jennifer!” and “I’ve been a fan since I was a teenager!”, some critics speculated that she had undergone plastic surgery, suggesting that she had undergone an eyebrow lift or other procedures, and claimed she looked completely different.
In response, Jennifer Love Hewitt took to her Instagram stories on Sunday to respond to the remarks with her trademark wit. She addressed her critics directly, saying, “A lot of people say I look different,” adding, “I look the same as I always do. I’m very natural. I woke up like this. Filters don’t change you that much.”
Her reaction was all the more striking because the videos she shared used different filters, making her appearance look quite different. Along with her playful response, she delivered a thoughtful message: “Let people choose whether they want to be filtered or unfiltered. Be kind. Spread love.”
Jennifer’s heartfelt message and candid approach resonates with many, and her openness about aging, especially as she celebrated her 44th birthday this year, has made her even more relatable. We admire her for championing kindness and transparency in the face of online scrutiny.
Lori and George, the oldest living Siamese twins in the world, have passed away
The world mourns the loss of the oldest known conjoined twins, Lori and George Schappell, who both passed away at the age of 62 in their Pennsylvania hometown.
Born on September 18, 1961, in Reading, Pennsylvania, Lori and George shared a rare connection, being conjoined at the skull while having separate bodies. They were linked by 30% of their brains and essential blood vessels.
Their incredible life journey came to a close on April 7 at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, as noted in their obituary. The specific cause of their passing has not been revealed.
George, who lived with spina bifida, used a mobility device for assistance, while Lori facilitated their movements by pushing and guiding his rolling stool. Their form of conjoined twins is exceptionally rare, affecting only about 2% to 6% of cases of congenital twins, according to NBC Today.
In a landmark moment for their lives, George transitioned in 2007, making them the first same-sex conjoined twins to identify as different genders, as recognized by Guinness World Records. During their trip to London in 2011 to celebrate their 50th birthday, George shared insights about his journey with The Sun, stating: “I knew from a very young age that I was supposed to be a boy”.
Both Lori and George completed their education at the Hiram G. Andrews Center and later worked at Reading Hospital. Despite their physical connection, they each pursued their own passions and hobbies. George followed his love for music as a country singer, captivating audiences globally, while Lori thrived as an accomplished bowler.
Remarkably, the Schappells enjoyed an independent lifestyle since turning 24. Initially, they lived in a care facility, then transitioned to a two-bedroom apartment where they each had their own space. They highlighted the significance of privacy, emphasizing that even with their physical bond, they found ways to enjoy solitude when needed
“Would we ever separate? Absolutely not”, George stated in a 1997 documentary: “My theory is, why fix what isn’t broken?”
Lori echoed this sentiment in a 2002 interview with the Los Angeles Times, saying: “I don’t believe in separation”. Our heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends of Lori and George during this challenging time.
