The 44-year-old actress Jennifer Love Hewitt has been the target of criticism on social media over her appearance. Following the release of a video featuring her new hairstyle and color by a hairstylist, several people labeled her as “unrecognizable,” accusing her of having plastic surgery.
Love Hewitt handled the criticism on her Instagram stories with elegance and wit. In response to the remarks, she declared, “I look the same as always,” adding jokingly, “I woke up like this.” You don’t really change because of filters.
She responded by utilizing a variety of filters, amusingly demonstrating how they change appearances. She also promoted kindness and urged people to accept who they are, filter or not.
Love Hewitt has previously discussed her fears in public. She expressed sentiments of “insecurity about aging” on her 44th birthday, which struck a chord with many.
Not only did her response silence her detractors, but it also encouraged kindness and self-acceptance. Love Hewitt’s approach to criticism serves as a lesson on self-acceptance and spreading love, despite criticism and filters.
