Always a Pear-Ass and never a bride. Such is Jennifer Love Hewitt’s lot in life. Some think that Love really, really wants to get married at some point, and that’s why she’s always perpetually engaged. Some think that Love only really likes the engagement part, and that she might have some underlying issues with the marriage part. I don’t know… I don’t really think Love is pathetic or desperate (in love, but obviously her career is another story), I just think she’s got crappy taste in men and she’s a honest-to-goodness girly-girl romantic who wants every relationship to be straight out of a Harlequin romance novel. I would love to see Love get more pragmatic about relationships, and I would like to see her simply be alone for a while. I think “not dating” for a year would be great for her issues. But that’s not going to happen. Love has a new boyfriend (Alex Beh) and she’s already pressuring him for the ring. I think they’ve only been dating, like, four months or so.
Unlike a slew of Hollywood stars, Jennifer Love Hewitt isn’t engaged yet — but she’s got her Tiffany engagement ring all picked out. Three of them, in fact.
“I actually have three because I feel like I’m doing the guy a favor,” Hewitt, 31, explains during a Tuesday appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show.
“Women are very confusing. We never know what we want and we’re not very good at nailing that down for them. I feel like I don’t want to be upset if he picks a bad ring” explains the Lost Valentine star, who’s been dating Alex Beh for about 7 months.
Hewitt has never been married before — but broke off her engagement to actor Ross McCall in early 2008.
But she’s all set should Beh or another suitor brings up matrimony. “If it gets to that conversation. If marriage comes up, I’m like, “You know what’s so weird. There is this store [Tiffany’s] and there are three rings in it… And if you chose one of these three, I’m going to be really excited. And if you go off on your own, we can have an awful, awkward moment. So why would you want to do that?”
Hewitt gushed about her new guy Beh, who had a great time as her date at the Golden Globes. “It was exciting! He’s never been to anything like that. ”

Doesn’t it ever get old, Love? Why all the pressure to get engaged? Why all the emotional vajazzling? Why all the emphasis on the sparkle and never on the emotional maturity for commitment and a marriage of equals?
But yeah, Jennifer Love Hewitt gives women a bad name. When dudes say things like “Bitches are crazy,” they’re talking about bitches like Love. I don’t know of any man who would stick around after being told that their girlfriend had already picked out three engagement rings at Tiffany’s. Bitch is crazy.

Oh dear God. Where to begin? Her obviously low self esteem that means she goes from relationship to relationship with no time in between? Or her horrible styling? A counselor and new stylist STAT, Love.
Yikes!!!!!
*groan*
I really want to like her but stuff like this is just not cool, even if it was a joke.
It’s like it doesn’t matter who it is. After about 3 months of dating she starts rallying for the ring. This strategy doesn’t seem to be working for her. Isn’t that the definition of insanity? Repeating the same actions over and over and expecting different results?
maybe just maybe Love is one of those girls who should buy a ring and ‘marry herself’ ala some lifetime for women television event.
Then, for her the pressure would be off because she is committed to herself. THEN everything else could fall into place for the poor girl.
Although, she is probably very thankful she never married Carson Daily, anyone from “Party of 5”, Ross Uncool, that ugly comedian or any off the other poor blokes she consumes herself with
What a vapid idiot. If she ever ends up getting married she won’t have anything to look forward to and she’ll end up depressed at how boring marriage actually is.
That explains why she’s still single, what guy in there right mind would want a control freak like that?
FWIW, I see nothing wrong with picking out 2 dozen rings you like. it’s the desperation that’s at issue
# 1) Are we absolutely certain his name isn’t Alex “Meh”?
# 2) Mr. Original Bellaluna found out from a friend (and former jewelry store employee) what I wanted in a ring; since we were the same ring size, he took her to the store for her “approval” of the stone and for sizing purposes. Needless to say, it all turned out wonderfully!
And why an “awkward moment”? Dude just asked you to spend his life (5 years Hollyweird time, max) with him – who cares what the ring looks like?!?
This is why she’s still single ….
I think any guy would go runnin’ for the hills if they heard that she already picked out THREE rings for them. Presumptuous much?
Yeah. She’s a catch.
She and Jessica Simpson should totally be friends.
I can’t with her today, smdh
Bitch is crazy.
“And if you go off on your own, we can have an awful, awkward moment. So why would you want to do that?”
Are you kidding, Love? This shit isn’t about a stupid ring. She’s focusing on insignificant, meaningless and trite things when instead she should f’in relax and stop the pressure. Maybe if she realizes that this isn’t a soap opera, some guy will actually like to spend time with her even post coitus
“I feel like I don’t want to be upset if he picks a bad ring” explains the Lost Valentine star, who’s been dating Alex Beh for about 7 months.”
A man would be proposing, asking you to share your life with him because he loves you and wants to be together for the rest of your lives… and you’re worried about not liking the ring?
And her tone in how she said it… makes it sound like she has no idea how shallow and fucked up that is.
Side Note- That combination cinnabon/bird’s nest thing she’s got going on top of her head… No. Just… no.
I do not think you are doing him a favor. I believe you are just proving to him how DESPARATE and PATHETIC you really are.
She’s lucky if she gets a Wal Mart ring. Oh snap!
Oh man, can you imagine how friggin old it must get for Tiffany employees every time she comes in?
“Alright guys, code Party of Fivehead. She’s gonna need two dozen rings to try on, a scale, and a man’s crotch to weep on. Any man.”
“Women are very confusing. We never know what we want…” Please. This is what I find offensive somewhat more than the complete craziness of picking out 3 rings. I already thought she was a loon so the ring thing is no big surprise.
Sometimes it seems to me that the women who talk about getting married the most (and desperately want to get married) actually marries much later than the ones who don’t. This happened in my group of college friends. The friend who talked about marrying each guy she dated (which I never understood) married much later than the ones who were not obsessed with getting married. This group included one friend who said she would never marry.
In my friend’s case, guys would treat her horribly. She would stick it out, making excuses for them until they eventually dumped her. Or, in one case, one guy stole ran up her credit cards, stole thousands of dollars from her, then moved out while she was out of the apartment. This guy was also a date rapist and she knew about it but didn’t believe it. This friend was so smart but, man, did she have some serious issues.
JLW probably won’t even land a guy to clean out all her “cob-webs”…it probably squeaks down in the southern region because of this kinda behaviour.
“She’s gonna need two dozen rings to try on, a scale, and a man’s crotch to weep on. Any man.”
rotfl…
Thats insane. Why would you pick rings before an engagement has even been discussed? (although, if I thought I might be getting engaged, I might drop hints – like “wow, i really like silver better than gold. How about you?”)
LOL, Mshuffleupagus!
this girl is truly desperate
At this point I’m starting to feel sorry for her, because she just has no clue.
Sadly there are many girls like this, who only care about the ring, the gown, the attention, rather than the relationship itself and the marriage. And it rarely seems to end well for them after the big wedding is done and real life sets in.
She really needs to focus some of her energy on something else. Find some hobbies, do some volunteer work, etc.
They should get her to star in a new spinoff series, “Desperate to be a Housewife”.
I’ve been trying to like her too, but crap like this really does give women a bad name. Obviously she has some really deep issues if the most important thing to her at the proposal moment is what the ring looks like. That’s pretty frickin crappy. What if dude wasn’t gonna spend $100k on a ring from Tiffany’s but was a good catch??
I think she is so incredibly odd looking as well as being strange. I really, really wish she would disappear from our consciousness
She does know how to pick ’em, goofy!
Wow how pathetic and shallow. What a nut
I’ve always kind of felt bad for her, but she just crossed the line to being extremely shallow and vapid.
This might be why she’s never been married. She seems to care more about appearances than the actual love part.
Plus, there’s no surprise if you know what kind of ring you’re getting.
I think an engagement ring is an important piece of jewelry. Mine doesn’t come off. I wanted one I would love and I’m picky about jewelry, so I picked mine out (with the hubs, of course).
I don’t think caring about the ring or having a preference is bad. But having three picked out before you’re seriously talking marriage is a bit out there. Or maybe they are. If so, congrats I guess. Don’t rush too fast!
In that first pic it looks like she’s already picked out her wedding dress too!
absolute nut job!
scratch the engagement ring, someone needs to buy her the book “Why Men Love Bitches” ASAP!
I just can’t with her, I really can’t. HELLO JLH, the ring is NOT the important part! The GUY is! My husband didn’t have a ring for me, I wore one that I already had until my folks had one made for me. I didn’t give 2 shits about a ring, but they had my grandparents’ rings combined into one for me. And THAT is why I love it & wear it every day.
Same with my cousin, he fiance didn’t have a ring (we like ’em poor, I guess) & she just wears one that she already had.
Seriously, if she is that hung up on a damn ring, shes never going to find “the one”
I really have a feeling that she is pregnant.
Seriously, if she is that hung up on a damn ring, shes never going to find “the one”
@Bohdi- She can’t even find “the 1” ring! There are 3! That is what she is really looking for, not a husband.
LMAO Mshuffleupagus
I think she wants to get married BAD-so she pressures the dude whether he’s ready or not. And they get engaged quickly, then the guy starts to figure out she’s a nutjob and breaks it off.
@ Bodhi, that’s freaking awesome. My dad didn’t get my mother an engagement ring, but instead gave her a diamond on a necklace.
For the longest time they just wore their gold bands, until a few years back when she got the diamond set into a ring.
She never cared that she didn’t get a ring. She was just happy that my dad asked her to be with him.
meh – i don’t get the hate for this girl. she’s not that different from thousands of american women. our society is incredibly marriage-centric as in “if he really loves you he’ll get you a big honking ring” mentality, or being groomed since childhood for the “most important day of your life so everything has to be perfect” BS. no wonder so many women push and push for the ring, the romantic propsal, the big fairy tale wedding and give little thought to what marriage and/or love actually means. a happy relationship is alot of day-to-day work, not just a sparkly ring. some women understand that, and some don’t. i’m guessing JLH does not.
She’s really only 31? I seriously thought she was like 42 or something.
Alex Beh= Alex Meh.
Startling resemblance to the last one, too.
I used to think she was a nice girl but now I think she just likes to be engaged but never married because I can’t remember anyone being engaged so many times but never made it to the altar
Is that a bird nest on her head? way too much fake tan and she should wear her hair down because those ears are still picking signals
She is in love with the idea of getting married. I think it’s probably a good thing she hasn’t actually went through with it so far because it would most likely end up in divorce.
Hopefully, she will never notice how much attention having a baby will get you. Oh gosh.
“Code Party of Fivehead” Love it. I love your posts. 🙂
My husband was making fun of her fivehead. I left the window up and he sat down on the computer and scrolled up. He started in on her forehead immediately.
I think she’s crazy in most regards, but I don’t see a problem with having a ring preference. I (and my boyfriend) know exactly what I want (white gold, round or princess cut, solitaire, no bigger than 1 carat)(that said, I don’t care about the wedding. Courthouse works for me, thanks).
I think her desperate skunk comes from her wild declarations of love for every guy she dates, not her ring preference.
I just saw her on Craig Ferguson…she bugs, ugh, she just called “2011” “two-eleven.”
these are terrible dresses
@Beck – “Women are very confusing. We never know what we want…” Please. This is what I find offensive somewhat more than the complete craziness of picking out 3 rings.
Yes, making sweeping unflattering gender-based generalizations is not endearing her to any women.
Sometimes it seems to me that the women who talk about getting married the most (and desperately want to get married) actually marries much later than the ones who don’t.
This seems to be true of most things… For the marriage subject, I’m sure the women obsessed with it scare men away… I know I’d be freaked out if I started dating a guy, & he immediately brought up us getting married. I’d think he had a screw loose, like JLH.
It’s like she associates it with some kind of ‘approval’ she’s trying to get. Like she wants it the way someone wants a trophy on their mantel… Not because they enjoy the sport they’re playing, but because they want to WIN… & the trophy is there so *everyone* can see that she WON…in her case, the ‘ring’ would be her trophy.
Damn it Love. I like you, I really do. But come on with the rings already. When I got proposed to, I didn’t care if the ring looked like he got it out of a gumball machine (it didn’t, it was lovely by the way).
When it became obvious that my beloved and I were going to get married, I admit that I did let him know that there are some ring styles that I just do not like. My feeling was that I will wear that ring for the rest of my life and I should have some say so in what it looks like. So beloved took me out one day just to look around at rings, so he got a good idea of what I liked. 22 years later, I’m still wearing the beautiful ring that he gave me several months later.
But, I don’t think that’s the same thing as what poor Love is doing…I certainly didn’t have specific rings preselected for whomever I happened to be dating to choose from.
She’s a pretty girl, but she’s a little too obsessed with engagements. It’s like she doesn’t realize that she’s become a serial fiancee.
@Beck – wow I hear you, some girls are crazy ignorant when it comes to their love life. I think it may have a little to do with social conditioning that a woman is nothing without a man, so the prospect of singlehood for any amount of time is such a threatening idea.
I have a friend who’s like this. Can’t stay single for more than a month, and gets engaged after about 3 months. This despite the fact that she’s gay and we don’t have gay marriage yet in Australia.
The post found to be very informative people like me who love to buy the rings like boll wood starts.
