Not so much a smackdown as more of a personal disappointment perhaps.

In a CNN interview entitled "I Want To Be A Dork" Jennifer Love Hewitt star of the hit TV series Ghost Whisperer admits she doesn't really believe in mediumship. I do not expect that an actor or actress should mirror the behaviours, thoughts, and opinions of the characters that they play...not only would that be unrealistic it would be down right loony, especially in regards to those who play the role of a villain.

However, the very same Jennifer Love Hewitt also proclaimed in a Yahoo UK News interview that the set of her hit show Ghost Whisperer was haunted by a ghosts!

She tells US chat show host Megan Mullally, "We've had lights move, literally three and a half inches to the left, as you're sitting there the lights move.

"We've had lights burst over actors' heads when they're playing people who don't believe in ghosts. A light will burst into a million pieces right over them.

"People are like, 'We're not guest-starring on that show!'

"But for us as a crew we're kind of like, 'Awesome! Maybe they (the ghosts) are with us."

So, which is it Jennifer? Your show may be fictional, but it is representative in the hearts and minds of your mostly mainstream TV viewers of those who have actually had these experiences. If you don't really believe in it why state your set is or might be haunted by ghosts? Cheap publicity at the time perhaps?

And for the record yes, overall I do like watching Ghost Whisperer, and will continue to tune in with the kid on Friday nights, taking it for what it is as entertainment only.
