Picking Out Your Engagement Ring Before You are Engaged? Jennifer Love Hewitt Has!


She may not be engaged yet, but Jennifer Love Hewitt is making it easy for her lucky guy when he does ask her. She has picked out three rings, just in case.


"I actually have three because I feel like I am doing the guy a favor." She explains to Ellen on her 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 it down for them. I feel like I don't want to be upset if he picks a bad ring." [UsMagazine]


Hewitt hasn't been married yet. Her engagement to Ross McCall was called off in 2008. With public love affairs with bad boy John Mayer, MTV host Carson Daly and Scream actor Jamie Kennedy, it seems Jennifer Love Hewitt is never far from her next love. Hopefully her dreams of becoming some one's wife happens soon. If not for her, for us.


Did you pick out your engagement ring before you were engaged?

John Mayer's Continual Quest to Make Sure He Never Dates Again


I have always been a fan of Mr. Mayer. He is an absolute genius in his ability with the guitar.When he played 'Human Nature' at Michael Jackson's memorial, I was stunned at his appreciation and understanding of musical theory. His lyrics about love are so heartfelt you know he has been through pain when dealing with love; Who hasn't?

I have defended him countless times in his understandings with love but this time, he has gone too far.

In Playboy's March issue, John Mayer rants on again about his past relationships with Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston. [Playboy]

When asked about his relationship with Jessica Simpson he responds, "That girl, for me, is a drug. And drugs aren't good for you if you do a lots of them. Yeah, that girl is like crack cocaine for me."

He doesn't end there either. He goes on to describe intimate details with Simpson.

"Sexually it was crazy. That's all I'll say." But he doesn't...

"It was like napalm, sexual napalm. Did you ever say, "I want to quit my life and just f****** snort you? If you charged me $10,000 to f****** snort you, I would start selling my s*** to keep f****** snorting you."

And then he feels a little remorse describing his sexual past in such detail, enough to stop his mouth from rambling on further. Mayer feels he may hurt Jennifer Aniston's feelings by detailing his emotions about another woman.

"Pardon me for interrupting. I love Jen so much that I'm now thinking about how bad I would feel if she read this and was like, "Why are you putting me in an article where you are talking about someone else? I don't want to be in your lineage of kiss-and-tell girls."

In the game of love, detailing past love affairs is a no-no. The only time you can't shut up about someone else is when you are not over them. Bringing up their name just you can hear it aloud is a tell-tale sign you are not over someone.

Luckily with Mayer's continual quest to tell the world he is not over his past love, Jennifer Aniston, no other woman will have to endure hearing about her own sexual antics broadcasted on the web.

Did your parents mess up your view of relationships?

My mother and father divorced when I was eight. After living without my parents married to one another, I decided I didn't have to get married either. Why when the outcome can be so messy?

Years went by and then one day I met a man and we moved in with one another. We had a daughter. Such a cute little thing but had some serious stomach issues as a baby... whew. We shared the responsibilities with each other. He took out the trash while I cooked. I cleaned the bathrooms and he cleaned the litter box. We took turns changing diapers and giving baths. Everything was perfect or so I thought. It all happened so fast. I never saw it coming.

He asked me to marry him.

What? I asked. I thought we were happy?All this time I had been avoiding this question and here it was. What was I to do? I loved him, yes. I wanted to spend my time with him, we have a blast together. I wanted to lie down every night beside him, he has a nice tummy to put my head on. He didn't like to take baths that much at the time, seriously that issue has gotten better... yay! I had to think about this one.

After the years of dealing with my parents mistakes and their love life, was I going to fall right into their footsteps and get married? What if it didn't work out? My daughter would be the one to suffer the most, I thought. Happily she would be living her life, thinking everything was hunky dory and then one day her parents would get tired of one another and they would split. I wasn't sure if I wanted to place that on her. After some thinking and then some shopping, I started to change my mind. I would have to take a chance on this love thing and in the end I might lose but he might lose too.

There is a funny, funny thing about marriage. After the years pass your love does change as some people worry about. It flips and floats and meanders along. At times you will get on one another's last nerve but you know what? It's cool. Send him out of town for a weekend with the boys. I like to think of it as family and a family is all I ever wanted.

Having seen what your parents went through in their marriage, did it ever hinder your love decisions?

Watching them, did it make you more aware of what you didn't want in your relationships?

When your significant other is gloomy, does it make you that way too?


My husband works from home with me. We share the same office and at this moment I am typing listening to him try and fix a problem that is occuring with a sales issue that has reared it's ugly head.

I was in sales once. I was a kitchen designer. I drew up plans on the computer for kitchen and bath remodels. I assigned electrical blueprints to the floorplans. Redesigned for the client "taste" of the moment... redesigned again when Sally Sue down the street had the pot filler installed above her stove and of course that must be in their kitchen also... redesigned again when "We just have to have two dishwashers." (oh, did I mention they order take out every night?)

Then came the installation process. Did everything come in right? Do the cabinets fit? No... something was measured wrong... back orders... manufacturers problems...strike at the plant... on and on... Needless to say, when the company had to downsize because builders couldn't get construction loans in this economy, I raised my hand and walked out the door with a huge smile on my face and never looked back.

This week has been doom and gloom in the office (I think my writing is suffering from it) and yes, as my husband just said it "It's only Tuesday."

When your significant other is in a gloomy state, do you tend to fall into his/her mindset? Does the tidal wave of goop fall on your shoulders too?

With the gloom of overcast skies and rain falling every hour or so, I think I'm ready for a new week.
