Jennifer Love Hewitt isn’t a stranger to body-image pressure in Hollywood. After some unflattering photos from a Hawaiian vacation spurred negative comments about her body, she spoke out against the old size 0 norms. “It’s realistic to feel good about yourself and to be as happy as you can be,” Jennifer tells Life & Style in an exclusive interview. “If it’s a size 12, then it’s a size 12. If it’s a size 0, then it’s a size 0. Size doesn’t matter.” And altering her own size — she’s shed almost 20 pounds from her 5-foot-2½ frame since last April — is something she insists she’s doing only for her health. “My goal was to be in the best shape I could possibly be in by my 30th birthday,” the Ghost Whisperer star, who turned the big 3-0 on Feb. 21, tells Life & Style. “I just want to live a long, healthy life, and you have to keep yourself active if you’re going to do that.”

Jennifer isn’t the only celeb speaking out on the pressure of staying thin!

“The main goal should be health, not squeezing into that dress your friend fits into.” —Natasha Bedingfield

“You need to be comfortable in your own skin. Girls who shouldn’t be a size 0 are saying, ‘Oh, I need to be that,’ and it’s not for everybody.” —Jessica Szohr

“I think wanting to be a size 0 is a bizarre, delusional goal. I think you should be whatever your healthy body wants you to be.”—Kristen Bell
