It was only a matter of time before Jennifer Love Hewitt commented on the buzz over Cheryl Burke’s weight gain. Jennifer Love Hewitt, who was also ridiculed for being “fat,” says people need to give the dancer a break.

Jennifer Love Hewitt said at a recent event, “I think her dancing is what everyone needs to be concentrating on.”

Hewitt continues, “Cheryl is an incredible dancer. She works her butt off—literally—to impress people every single week on Dancing With the Stars, and I just think she’s fantastic.”
