Hewitt's breasts digitally reduced

BREAST REDUCTION: The two different adverts for Jennifer Love Hewitt's new show The Client List

Jennifer Love Hewitt's breasts were digitally reduced in an advert for her new show because some outlets wanted "something a little tamer".

The actress appears in a campaign for her new series The Client List in sexy black lingerie which shows off her bountiful bosom. However, her chest has been condensed for some mediums promoting the Lifetime series.

"Some magazines and websites wanted something a little tamer," an insider told E! Online. "So Lifetime changed them a little bit. Things like this happen all the time. Would Lifetime want all the ads to show them as they really are? Of course!"

Hewitt has sparked controversy for playing sensual masseuse Riley Parks on the provocative series, which follows a young woman who works at a sensual massage parlour to support her family when her husband is unable to work.

She defended the show's racy storyline saying it was purely entertainment.

"It's a TV show," she told the entertainment website at last week's Client List launch party in Los Angeles. "They're not offended by Dexter or Nurse Jackie, but they're offended by me giving a happy ending?"

The show drew in 2.8 million viewers for last night's premiere, according to Deadline, making it the most watched Lifetime debut since Drop Dead Gorgeous which attracted the same size audience in 2009.

Hewitt's co-star Colin Egglesfield has previously joked that he chose the skimpy outfits Hewitt wears on the show.

"I'm a consultant in the wardrobe department," he said. "I help style her in her trailer before each scene."

Hewitt joked, "We should do one with Colin, too!"
