Jennifer Love Hewitt cranked the pregnancy rumour mill into overdrive when she hit up the Third Annual Marshalls Shop Till It Stops Gala in Santa Monica looking curvier than ever.

Dressed in a flowing, low-cut purple gown that certainly made the most of her rounder figure, the Ghost Whisperer actress left onlookers wondering if she was expecting – or simply carrying a little extra weight.

Just last year Hewitt was forced to deny pregnancy rumors following publication of snaps that reportedly showed the starlet sporting what many thought was a baby bump.

The actress's rep released this statement rubbishing the claims:

"There's 100 percent no truth to this. It's completely ridiculous. Jennifer is not pregnant. A Web site made up that story after reading some internet comments on perezhilton.com."

Baby bump or not, we think Jen looks stunning!
