Jennifer Love Hewitt, who has previously taken a lot of heat for her fuller-figure, says she almost dumped bf Jamie Kennedy when he called her “pear ass.”

“We had a rough patch in the beginning because the first time we went on vacation, I was going to be in a bikini, and I was very nervous,” she said Tuesday on Lopez Tonight.

“I heard him coming down the hall, so I got in the cute bikini position.

“And he goes, ‘Hey, my little pear ass.’ “I said, ‘I’m sorry, what did you say?’”

Jennifer continued by discussing, in detail, how the remark was NOT a compliment. “Have you ever seen a pear?” she asked. “It starts thin, it gets fat and it never gets thin again. It’s not cute. It’s not a cute fruit.”

She said, since the fight they “worked it out” and now “we’ve embraced the pear.”

Jamie “didn’t mean” the comment in a mean way, Jen added. “He thought it was a compliment, I think.”

FYI Jamie, don’t ever call a girl’s ass fat… DUH! That’s like relationship suicide!

Jennifer Love Hewitt and boyfriend Jamie Kennedy aren’t gearing up to say, “I do” just yet.

The New York Post reported earlier this week that Kennedy proposed to Hewitt on stage at the Laugh Factory in Long Beach, Cali., Saturday night after the crowd yelled, “Marry her!”

Awww! That would’ve been super cute but unfortunately the rumors aren’t true!

“There is no truth to the report,” Hewitt’s rep told Usmagazine.com.

So maybe no engagement just yet, but marriage has apparently come up in conversation!

Last month, Hewitt revealed to a Los Angeles radio station that she’s given Kennedy a proposal timeline.

“By this time next year, if we’re not planning something, then there’s a situation.”

Sounds to us like J.Love is itching to tie the knot! She’s probably still bitter from her breakup with actor Ross McCall who called of their engagement late last year.

“Breakups are awful. They’re really painful,” she told Ellen DeGeneres in April. “They really hurt. They really suck on lots of levels, but what I think is great about life is that the universe always brings you something really beautiful and great afterward — and that’s kind of where I am now.”

Hopefully Jamie is that something beautiful…

It looks like Jennifer Love Hewitt may not just be one of Jamie Kennedy’s experiments!

The couple they have been going strong now for at least a month and looked happier than ever last night at, ironically, the Finding Bliss premiere.

The lovebirds beamed on the red-carpet and J-Love glowed as she showed off a slim and toned body!

The flick, starring Kennedy, is about an aspiring filmmaker who takes a job at a porn studio, planning to use the company’s lush facilities to secretly film her own movie after hours, according .

I never would’ve put these two C-listers together, but hey maybe it’ll work out for them!

Random couple alert — Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy are dating!

“Yes, we are dating,” Kennedy said Friday on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show. “Wow, I’ve never said that.”

“We have an intense connection,” he said. Making a Twilight reference, he added, “She’s my Bella. I don’t want to bite her neck, but I want her to live.”

Even though they’ve been friends for years, we talked to Jamie Kennedy back in October and there didn’t seem to be anything going on between them then.

So it makes sense why he would say that the relationship came out of “nowhere”. Originally, he said he had been “too busy” for love.

But “here’s somebody that breathes life into you in a new way and makes you fuller and that’s what she does to me!” he said. “I’m in love, and I don’t care!” he added. “Ryan, you knew off-the-air, because you said I seemed different to you … it’s amazing.”

Wow, he sure is confident and outspoken about this. Relationships seem to last when they start as friendships — so maybe these two will actually stay together!

The Boots Girls are laughing really hard right now because Jamie Kennedy is on manorexic Carson Daley’s show right now talking about his car accident!

Ha! You heard it HERE first!

Jamie Kennedy sat down with The Boots Girls Friday afternoon at the Amalfi Hotel after his car accident. He talked about his new projects, his love for Chicago and the upcoming election.

BG: Tell me about your new show the Ghost Whisperer.

JK: I’m on the Ghost Whisperer and it comes out tonight, the premiere. And I’m on it with Jennifer Love Hewitt, and I play a new character who has a near death experience.

BG: Like today?

JK: Yeah. (Laughs.) Like I did. I come back and have special powers. Although today, I just came back and my back hurts.

BG: Were you friends with Jennifer Love Hewitt before working on the show?

JK: No. Well, I’ve known her—kind of.

BG: So, tell me about your movie Heckler. You starred and produced in
the movie right?

JK: Yes. It’s a movie about heckling. I would go out and do my stand up and sometimes I would get heckled and I would film it. And I was talking to the director of the movie, he was with me on the road, and
he was like this is funnier than my act —these heckles. So, we started filming more and I started interviewing hecklers. But I feel like I just got heckled by that semi-truck. My back does hurt.

BG: Were there any critics that spoke out against the movie and had a
negative response?

JK: Its funny I did an interview with Bill Zwecker today— he loved it. He was in so, ya know, that helped. Ben Lions gave it a pretty good review —he’s not in it. There’s bloggers that think that I’m a whiner, but there’s other critics that said it was a really cool study of the critical society that we live in. But there’s a lot of
Chicago in it. Bill Zwecker’s in it, Richard Roeper and Mike Ditka.

BG: Are you from Chicago?

JK: No, but I just come here a lot for some reason. I get love here. I used to come here for press tours for my show. This city has always been good to me. I go to the Cubby Bear. I came here with WB. We shot
here. Everytime I promote something, I come here.

BG: Have you been following the election? What did you think of the
debate and Sarah Palin last night?

JK: We were discussing this. I only watched a teeny bit because I got on a plane. It didn’t seem as exciting as I thought it would be.

But here’s my take on Obama—he’s so charming that he is like a deity almost and he is the biggest thing on the planet. And if he were president, I think people would be so enamored with him that we would
get things done because it’s almost like meeting greatness.

McCain is an amazing survivor and amazing guy. But he’s 106 and his vice president—a lot of dudes will vote for her because they want to have sex with her. She’s pretty hot. No one wants to admit that but that’s why dudes will vote for her.

Jamie Kennedy came in town this past weekend, but almost missed an interview with The Boots Girls because of a car accident!

As soon as our interview started, Jamie was sure to mention his car accident earlier that day. He was hanging out with Maria Menounos’ ex-assistant who he met on the set of Kickin It Old School and insisted that she tell me the story.

Kennedy and his friend were leaving an interview at CBS, driving on State and Lake and sitting at a stoplight —when a semi-truck nailed then from behind! Their BMW only had a few scratches, but the passengers got whiplash and the truck driver was freaking out when he noticed it was Jamie Kennedy in the car says his friend.

After the incident, they went to Rockit and ate Rockit Pockets instead of going to the hospital.

Keep checking back for the full interview with Jamie Kennedy. He divulges info about the possibilities of a forth Scream, Sarah Palin and his new show Ghost Whisperer.
