Before Jennifer Love Hewitt joined in on Party of Five, she partied with Michael Jackson for LA Gear. How awwwdorable was the 11-year-old in that 1990 print ad?
Yesterday, when Hewitt was on Jimmy Kimmel Live, she talked about making that ad and what advice the King of Pop gave her.
She needed to leave the shoot for a charity event and he told her to always give back. He meant it because he donated a nice chunk of change to that charity in her name to bring that point home to her. Not only that, he invited her to home for Thanksgiving. You know the Neverland Ranch and she went with her mother.
Who wouldn’t want that experience from shooting a print ad?
