Answer: PILLOW VERSION WILL NOT WORK IN A PYTHON VERSION IT WAS NOT MADE FOR!
So I had to check the chart. I was running django on python==3.9.13, so I needed to uninstall the pillow==7.2.0 to Install pillow==8.3.1 for my python version 3.9.13 and Boom it started working.

I did this:
pip uninstall Pillow
pip install Pillow==8.3.1
OR
python -m pip uninstall Pillow
python -m pip install Pillow==8.3.1
So it all depends on the python version you are running pillow on.
