53!!To tell you our tropes, we have to tell you hers:
54
55* AsHerself: On ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', ''WesternAnimation/TheWeekenders'' and in non-cartoon form in ''Film/TropicThunder''.
56* AdaptationalCurves: When she starred in the TV movie ''[[Creator/AudreyHepburn The Audrey Hepburn Story]]''. As ''Newsweek'' noted, "Hepburn was famously flat-chested. Hewitt is famously not." Hewitt also does her own singing, [[NonSingingVoice unlike Hepburn]].
57* CamelCase: ''[=BareNaked=]''
58* DullSurprise: This is her default expression in ''Series/GhostWhisperer''.
59* GenkiGirl: Has had a reputation of being incredibly bubbly, often to [[ThePollyanna Pollyanna]] heights.
60* MsFanservice: Jennifer is this in many of her movies and TV shows.
61** ''Today NOW!'', a faux morning talk show from [[Website/TheOnion The Onion News Network]], featured a segment, [[http://www.theonion.com/video/evangeline-lilly-wins-best-wet-t-shirt-fight-scene-14193 “Strong Women in Television Awards”]], in which Hewitt was nominated for “Being Philosophical while Wearing a Revealing Nightgown” for her role on ''Series/GhostWhisperer''.
62* NippleAndDimed: Much to the dismay of many of her fans[[note]]Her heterosexual male fans at least[[/note]], she has never exposed her breasts on screen, limiting herself to {{Sideboob}}, ModestyTowel, GodivaHair, HandOrObjectUnderwear, ToplessnessFromTheBack or simply cleavage.
63** Did a SexySoakedShirt scene running in the rain on ''The Client List'' with some slight nipple exposure.
64%%* OfCorsetsSexy: Just check out [[http://www.adrants.com/images/jennifer_love_hewitt_maxim_09.jpg this]] picture.
65* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: She knows that she often acts as fanservice and is proud of it. She has no problem with exposing her undergarments.
66* ThemeNaming: She has three children, daughter Autumn and sons Atticus and Aidan.
67* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Jennifer is [[{{Claustrophobia}} claustrophobic]]; while filming a scene in an underground tunnel for ''Ghost Whisperer'', a removable wall had to be installed so she could get out quickly.
