Top 10 Unforgettable 2000s Actresses And What Are They Up To (3 of 6)

4. Jennifer Love Hewitt

Back in the 2000s, Jennifer Love Hewitt was a real heartthrob, especially in Heartbreakers, where she played a sultry con artist. Hollywood seemed to love typecasting her as the “hot girl,” so she got stuck in similar roles. In 2010, while filming The Client List, she met Brian Hallisay. Sparks flew, she got pregnant, and they eventually tied the knot and had three kidstwo boys and a girl. Her career slowed down a lot after that. Some say it was her choice; others claim it was the “stage diva” behavior. After her second pregnancy, she gained a bit of weight, and Hollywood said, “We’ll get back to you if anything pops up,” only to never actually call her back. In 2014, she briefly joined Criminal Minds but lasted only one season. Today Hewitt rarely shows up at red-carpet events, but when she does, the fans are thrilled.

5. Alyssa Milano

Alyssa Milano moved from playing one of the three sister witches on Charmed to being a full-on activist. She launched Project Runway: All Stars, wrote a cyber-thriller comic series (Hacktivist), and has been front and center of the #MeToo movement. All that while regularly getting TV and movie roles in projects like Mistresses, Insatiable, and Elbeth. She’s an outspoken vegetarian, PETA supporter, breastfeeding advocate, and a UNICEF ambassador. She’s not just playing heroes on screenshe’s trying to be one in real life.
