Jennifer Love Hewitt is speaking out about the attention on her body -- and how it almost prevented her from appearing in the new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel.

Jennifer Love Hewitt has been an icon since she found fame in the 90s, and with her rising recognition, she became known as a "sex symbol" to many. However, the 9-1-1 actress, 46, has admitted that the added attention on her body left her feeling "insecure".

Jennifer was only 16 when she filmed her movie breakout role, I Know What You Did Last Summer, following a successful run on the Fox show Party of Five. Unfortunately, being a child didn't stop her from being subjected to objectification (see: Jay Leno asking her about her love life and when she'll turn 17).
