Jennifer Love Hewitt to Fans: I"m Not Really Ugly Now! I Promise!

Jennifer Love Hewitt took to the red carpet at the Upfronts to promote Ryan Murphy"s 9-1-1 series.

As you can see in the video that we"ve attached, she did not necessarily look the best that she"s ever looked. And she saw the pics.

Hewitt is issuing an apology to fans and assuring them that she"s still hot and that this "disaster" will never happen again.

Jennifer Love Hewitt took to her Instagram stories to repeatedly apologize for her appearance on the red carpet.

"It has been a really intense couple of days. Like, so great, so blessed — but intense."

A lot of things fit that description. Particularly in show business.

"We go to the Upfront yesterday and nobody tells me the day is going to be like 12 hours long and the humidity is going to be almost 100 percent in New York City."

Fortunately, phones have access to All Human Knowledge and can tell you the forecast. But that"s beside the point.

"So, I just have to apologize."

Does she need to apologize for looking less than her best, though?

"Wearing a black suit? Not a good idea."

It was very hot.

"Not wearing enough hairspray and teasing in my hair? Also a bad idea."

She is all but begging fans to forgive her for being a human.

"I just have to apologize for how wrecked I look in all the pictures that have come out."

The heat, she says, was a massive factor.

"I was literally melting. By the time I got to the red carpet, I was honestly melting."

If you live in a dry area, heat is like an oven. If you live in a humid and hot area, heat is like a sauna. It"s worse.

"My hair was flat, my makeup was running off my face."

She makes it clear exactly why, in her mind, this is such a transgression.

"And I looked like I had completely forgotten I was an actress in this business who is supposed to look [perfect] when you step on the red carpet."

She assures fans that she will not look like this on 9-1-1, a show about which she is very excited.

"That is not what I"m going to look like on the show."

Few actors look the same on the red carpet as they do on television.

"I"m going to have makeup on my face."

That"s a given.

"I"m not going to be sweating."

That"s the dream.

"I"m not going to be overwhelmed by being in front of a red carpet and crews again."

Of course.

"Honestly, I apologize."

Does she really need to apologize? Surely most fans are nuanced enough to understand that she won"t always look like she did in 1999.

"I should"ve really gotten it together!"

She says that her two toddlers had kept her up "all night."

"It was our first time traveling with them."

There"s a time zone difference. It"s a lot. And this isn"t her first #MommyLife mishap.

"Traveling with toddlers…wow. I had no idea. I mean, I waited this long because I knew that it was going to be hard."

But she makes it clear that she"s not shaming them for being toddlers.

"First of all, let me say: My kids were ballers. Amazing! They did a great job."

And she gives a big shout-out to her partner in crime, Brian Hallisay.

"My husband is a saint."

Credit where credit is due.

"He really held it all together."

Overall, Hewitt says that it was a positive experience.

"I had an amazing time in New York, I had an amazing time with my family, but I"m happy to be home!"

Of course.

"I"m going to be killing my boxing workouts again, getting in great shape mentally, physically, and emotionally for all that"s ahead when we start the season."

It sounds like she"s really trying to assure people that she"s going to be "TV hot" again.

"I"m just feeling really grateful, so I hope you"re excited. I"m excited."

Fans are, of course, excited.

"And I"m really sorry for looking like a hot mess on the red carpet yesterday. Oh, my God!"

She really dozen need to apologize. Especially not this many times.

"I was so hot! I was like literally melting. Like, melting. Melting! But…I had a blast!"

Ryan Phillippe Says Ex-Girlfriend Elsie Hewitt Lying About Domestic Abuse

Elsie Hewitt Tweets After Alleged Ryan Phillippe Assault, Posts Graphic Photos

Elsie Hewitt is accusing Ryan Phillippe of assault, and her tweets from around the time of the alleged assault hint at significant turmoil. 

A 21-year-old model, Hewitt filed a civil lawsuit against Phillippe, 43, for allegedly kicking, punching and throwing her down the stairs.

The alleged incident occurred July 4.

Phillippe denies the incident, and on Tuesday, authorities closed the criminal investigation into the matter without filing charges.

The actor’s rep said in a statement:

“As a staunch advocate for the health, well-being and equality of women, Ryan is completely devastated [by] these false allegations.”

“Domestic violence is an incredibly serious issue and fabricated and proven false claims should not be used to unjustly slander the falsely accused.”

“The claims are false.”

Not so, says Hewitt, who claims that on July 3, Phillippe had left a party after “being ignored [by Hewitt],” and all hell broke loose after.

Hewitt alleges that she went to his house with a friend to pack up her things in the early hours of July 4, and a physical altercation ensued.

On June 29, Hewitt tweeted that she was “having a [really] ugly day.” The following day, she cryptically tweeted: “[Why are you] texting me.”

A day after the alleged assault, the model tweeted: “At the end of the day your word is your only clout but everyone’s a f–king liar anyway, so.”

“I woke up and ate a huge bowl of pasta at 10am and the whole time I ate it I was like wtf elsie but I still didn’t stop and now I feel sick.”

On July 6, she tweeted: “[You] know there’s something wrong when you’d rather sit in silence than sit there with music,” later adding:

“Completely f–king broken [right now]. That is all.”

Hewitt claims that she saw Phillippe – whom she had been dating since April but split from in July – “repeatedly abusing” drugs.

Specifically, “a panoply of legal and illegal drugs, including without limitation: cocaine, ecstasy, psychedelic mushrooms, and steroids.”

The model says Phillippe “increasingly combined these drugs with excessive alcohol consumption,” and that it impacted his behavior.

As a result, he “often exhibited symptoms attendant of drug and alcohol abuse, including mood swings and bouts of anger.”

A source close to the star, however, claims it was Hewitt who was under the influence July 4, and that he did nothing wrong.

“Elsie showed up to Ryan’s house uninvited and under the influence a few days after he had broken up with her,” a source told People.

“She physically attacked Ryan.”

“She caused a scene and refused to leave his home. As she was removed from the premises, she claims she fell and injured herself.”

A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department says Hewitt requested and was granted an emergency protective order.

The order expired July 12.

A report on the incident was forwarded to the Los Angeles City Attorney, who decided not to file criminal charges, as we stated above.

Keith Fink, Hewitt’s lawyer, dismisses any suggestion that his client had filed the suit simply as a means of obtaining fame and money.

She claims he “violently threw her down his staircase as hard as he could” and then “tossed her down the stairs a second time.”

Hewitt also supplied a number of photos of bruising and injuries (above, below) that she alleges she suffered as a result of the altercation.

Hewitt was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center with injuries, and police issued the emergency protective order and filed a report.

She claims that she suffered significant chest wall pain, abrasions and severe bruising, and is asking for $ 1 million as a result.

Again, there are two sides to this story, and Ryan’s is that these injuries were not sustained as a result of anything he did to her.

The photos may be provocative, but it’s important to note that he denies this as the case is still playing out in the legal system.

Stay tuned.

James Hewitt: Is He Prince Harry"s Real Father?

These days, most of the press surrounding Prince Harry has to do with his budding relationship with Meghan Markle.

But Harry’s been in the spotlight since the day he was born, and no matter how old he gets or how much he accomplishes, some folks who watched him come of age will always remain fixated on his tumultuous childhood.

Even if you’re not old enough to remember it or you’re new to the royal-watching game, you’re likely aware that Harry’s parents, Prince Charles and Princess Diana, had an absolute nightmare of a marriage.

Infidelity, abuse, intimidation … you name it, Princess Di suffered it at the hands of Prince Charles.

So perhaps it’s not surprising that she allegedly sought solace in the arms of other men.

One of those men (again, allegedly) was James Hewitt – a former British officer who admits (or claims) he had an affair with Diana in the early years of her marriage to Charles.

Due to what many see as a physical resemblance between Hewitt and Harry, rumors that the 58-year-old is Harry’s real dad have been persistent in the British tabloid media for decades.

Over the weekend, Hewitt finally addressed the rumors in an interview for Australian television:

Asked point-blank if there’s any chance he’s Harry’s father, Hewitt replied, simply:

“No, I’m not.”

Asked why he thinks the rumor has persisted for all these years, Hewitt answered:

“Sells papers. It’s worse for [Harry] probably, poor chap.”

For his part, Harry has declined to comment on the issue of his paternity for a number of obvious reasons.

Despite childhoods marred by tragedy, Harry and his brother, Prince William, appear to have developed into well-adjusted young men, both of whom have worked hard at developing romantic relationships far more stable and healthy than their parents’ marriage.

Currently, rumors that Harry is engaged to Markle are circulating online, but the couple has yet to confirm.

Harry and Meghan traveled to Jamaica last week for a friends’ wedding, and witnesses say they appeared to be very much in love.

Princess Di may not have been able to watch her children form grow into adults, but we think it’s safe to say she would be profoundly pleased by the young men they’ve become.

The rest of the world certainly is.
