  • Summary: Film and television actress Jennifer Love Hewitt actually had begun her recording career prior to appearing on "Party of Five," but never achieved the success in music that she did on screen. This latest album, coming as her popularity is increasing and utilizing the production talents of Meredith Brooks, represents perhaps her last chance at pop stardom. Expand

  1. Admittedly, her FM-friendly singalongs aren't rocket science, just fantastically effective. [May 2003, p.109]

    There's little to indicate an intrinsic personality unusual enough to demand your attention. [#10, p.118]
  3. Amounts to nothing more than a party of five million bland cliches. [11 Oct 2002, p.82]

    Hewitt's problem on BareNaked, ironically, is that she lacks "it." Whatever magnetism she carries on screen, whatever eye-candy poise she possesses; it all comes off as vanilla in her music.

  1. why you so mean??? This is a beautiful album every songs are so great and you can relate to. You can even feel what she means and you'll understand every word she was singing... I can say it is a wonderful album and it's on my top list. I can't wait for her next album. :)

    PS: Jennifer Love Hewitt is a great singer and have beautiful range of voice... :)
