Star steps out after sleek makeover, says she no longer knows her own body

Jennifer Love Hewitt announced that she was pregnant with her first baby and engaged to boyfriend Brian Hallisay in June this year. The other day, she stepped out on the blue carpet, debuting a new, sleeker ‘do and her gorgeous engagement ring.

Though she was often papped before the pregnancy announcement, since she learned she’s about to become a mom, Jennifer has been flying under the radar a lot.

She’s hardly photographed by the paparazzi and she rarely does interviews, focusing instead on motherhood and her fiancé.

So, when she came out at the Pampers Celebrates Love, Sleep and Play bash at Grand Central Station and she looked so different from how she looked with lighter un-banged hair, everyone was pleasantly surprised.

Plus, Jennifer also looked fabulous in a form-fitting midi dress and platforms, as you can see for yourself in the photo attached to this article.

However, the biggest difference was the hair: usually sporting waving locks, Jennifer opted this time for a stricter cut which perfectly framed her face. Both the bangs and the darker shade flatter her.

Speaking with People magazine on the blue carpet, the actress admitted that pregnancy was startling in a way, in that it made her not recognize her own body anymore because of the changes it went through.

Even so, it’s the most beautiful experience.

“[Being pregnant] is an awesome thing. It definitely has its moments where you’re like, ‘Oh my gosh this is crazy,’ but it’s been beautiful,” Jennifer gushed.

In fact, the experience has been so “crazy” that the actress doesn’t even want to consider planning a wedding at the same time.

“I’m not putting that on myself also! We’re going to wait. I’m going to get down and be cute again and then we’ll be ready to go,” Love explained.
