More alike than you think



It's been five years since Jennifer Love Hewitt played Audrey Hepburn in a biographic made for TV movie but many people still scratch their heads on a daily basis over that particular casting decision.

Well, my trusty band of researchers has unearthed a number of amazing correlations between the two actresses that will shake you to your very core. The similarities are even more compelling than those drawn between the Lincoln and Kennedy assassinations.

Hewitt and Hepburn both start with a "H". So does the word "Hollywood". There are several other things starting with H that relate to Audrey such as Hubert de Givenchy, Holly Golightly and Henry Higgins. Similarly with Jennifer, there is the movie "Heartbreakers", the music video "Hero" with Enrique Iglesias and all the Horny Frat Boys who form her main fanbase.

Audrey was born in 1929 and Jennifer was born 50 years later in 1979. 50 is a nice round number. In 1945, Holland was liberated from Nazi occupation, allowing Audrey to emerge from hiding. Fifty years later, Jennifer experiences a personal liberation through the release of her American debut album, "Let's Go Bang".

Jennifer's new tv show is called Ghost Whisperer - it's about a newlywed who can communicate with GHOSTS. Audrey passed away in 1993 so the only way she can make new movies/shows is as a GHOST.

Jennifer's mother is Italian while her father is German. Audrey's mum and dad were English and Dutch respectively. That puts their family roots in roughly in the same geographical region!

Audrey's signature chic is epitomised in the little black dress. Jennifer has also been known to wear a little black dress to stylish effect.



Audrey has been nominated FIVE times for an Academy Award (and won once). While Jennifer has yet to be nominated, get this, she got her big break while playing Sarah Reeves in Party of FIVE. Last time we checked, both actresses also had five fingers on each hand.

You may recall that CAT, Holly Golightly's feline friend played a big part in "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Jennifer also shared screentime with an almost realistic big ginger TOMCAT in "Garfield". It's also rumoured both cats chose to appear in these movies based on the choice of the lead actress.

Jennifer has been photographed extensively for that arbiter of klass, MAXIM Magazine. MAXIM'S is also the name of a legendary restaurant in Paris, a city which Audrey is often associated with.



Jennifer has been romantically linked in the past to musician John Mayer. John Mayer has a FUNNY FACE.



Audrey shared her surname with another great actress, Katherine Hepburn, who was also viewed by many as having a superior acting range to Audrey. Jennifer shares her surname with Australian tennis player Lleyton Hewitt. He is also widely considered to be better than Jennifer at acting out his emotions.



Audrey has a website dedicated to helping impoverished children. Jennifer has at least one fansite dedicated to her breasts. Breasts, when filled with milk, can be used to nurture impoverished infants.



Are all of the above just mere coincidence? I think not. There are deeper forces at work here.

I got chills.

Here's another. Jennifer has Love as her middle name. Audrey sung 'Wouldn't it be Loverly?" in My Fair Lady.

Heh. She really is a prize gimp, isn´t she. Do you remember, in the mid-90s, when she tried to change ehr name to (just) Love Hewitt.. The teeny-bopper magazines I used to read were full of the news. She ran with it for a while but it obviously didn´t stick (on account of even the Americans must have baulked at such pretentiousness).

Merci pour le linkage. I am out of touch with this blog, as I´m overseas, but I have a record of all the posts on bloglines and I look forward to many hours of amusing catch-up reading when I get home. I was going through my archives the other day looking for something and I re-found a link to your post about the interviews for Tom Cruises girlfriend (Claire Danes: "I haven´t been relevant in, like, forever.") and laughed all over again. Hah.
