Jennifer Love Hewitt engaged, fans stuck in 1997 would rejoice if they knew
The National Enquirer must have had some space to fill on its website lately, because they used up some bandwidth on this little nugget of nothingness:
Jennifer Love Hewitt is reportedly engaged! The Ghost Whisperer star plans to marry Scottish actor Ross McCall (Band of Brothers). The pair have been dating for almost two years.
Well I have to wonder why anyone is even reporting on this. (I’m sure it is in more places than just the Enquirer. I mean, I know there is lots of space to fill on the internets and with all that space sometimes (aw, hell all the time) random bits of nothing get posted as important bits of breaking news (and, c’mon, let’s face it, this website is a perfect example of that.) I mean, Mazel Tov to the happy couple and all, but I don’t think this is exactly news we are all waiting to hear, even those of us interested in celebrity gossip and celebrity weddings and what celebrity is currently moving in with (or filing a restraining order against) which other celebrity. I suppose there could be some Party of Five fans out there geeking out over this story, but they are clearly still stuck in the mid-1990s, so rather than reading the forums on Television Without Pity they are still writing emails from their Compuserv accounts (the ones with the long string of numbers as an email address) and uploading fan fiction via FTP to Gopher. Or there are Time of Your Life fans out there chatting about their favorite episodes on IRC. Those folks clearly aren’t surfing the web so they aren’t even privy to this juicy little big of Jennifer Love Hewitt news. (Hey, didn’t she date Carson Daly at some point.) And even if they are reading this, they are likely to get distracted by their beepers going off or by that funky awesome new dance, The Macarena.
