Vegas Baby
WHAT HAPPENS TO
GHOST WHISPERER'S JENNIFER LOVE
HEWITT IN
LAS VEGAS DOESN'T STAY THERE ANYMORE.
In her
CBS series,
Ghost Whisperer, Jennifer Love Hewitt
plays a newlywed antiques-store owner with a gift for
communicating with the dead. But in real life, Hewitt likes to walk
among the living in one of the most frenetic cities on earth, Las
Vegas. Although the dark-haired beauty lives in
Los Angeles, she
regularly escapes to Vegas from an increasingly hectic schedule.
It's been getting busier by the moment ever since Hewitt rolled out
of Killeen,
Texas, set on becoming a star.
She already had a good start. At age three, she was in tap dancing
and ballet classes. At four, she entertained a Texas
restaurant/dance-hall audience with her version of "Help Me Make It
through the Night." By six, Hewitt sang
Whitney Houston's "Greatest
Love of All" at a livestock show. At eight, she joined a
song-and-dance troupe called the Texas Show Team, which toured the
world for LA Gear. After moving to Los Angeles with her mom, the
young actress appeared first in scores of TV commercials, then in
the Disney kids' series
Kids Incorporated, and soon after,
in the popular TV series
Party of Five. It wasn't long before she
was starring in films such as
Heartbreakers, I Know What You Did
Last Summer, The Tuxedo, and as the legendary
Audrey Hepburn in
the TV movie
The Audrey Hepburn Story. In 2005, she landed
her starring role on
Ghost Whisperer. All along, she's also
been working as a singer/songwriter, touring the world and
releasing four albums.
