Jennifer Love Hewitt to Play Hooker Housewife  11/3/05

Ghost Whisperer star Jennifer Love Hewitt has signed up to play a housewife-turned-prostitute in a new movie.

The actress and her LoveSpell Entertainment company have acquired rights to She Had Brains, a Body and The Ability to Make Men Love Her, a Texas Monthly article, with plans of starring in and producing a film adaptation.

The article, which was written by Katy Vine and appeared in the January (05) issue, tells of a 22-year-old housewife and former homecoming queen in Odessa, Texas, who became one of the most popular prostitutes until she, her co-workers and dozens of local residents were arrested in the midst of a huge scandal.
