In defense of the outspoken Katherine Heigl

She’s not commendable or condemnable, just stupid. When a star does well, the public gets real nasty if the star doesn’t seem properly humble and respecting of his or her fans. Plus, she’s building herself a rep for being trouble to work with, given how the network turned on her in salary negotiations and made her look ungrateful. What she needs to do is stop having her mom run her career and get a decent publicist. She’s losing all the goodwill she’s gained for her performances and sticking up for her fellow actors. And as Shonda Rhimes showed earlier, she has no problem getting rid of an actor on her show who is causing problems. Of course, that may be what Heigl is going for — getting free of Grey’s to concentrate on her movie career.

That girl is not only irrelevant, she’s boring. GA is boring, KU was boring, her upcoming movie looks boring. She wants to be the new poster child for speaking her mind, telling it like it is, sticking it to the Hollywood machine, go for it. She’s not saying anything interesting, just churning her pr machine. When she does press for New Orleans, post hurricane Katrina, raises money for the genocide in Darfur, speaks against all injustice, not just for her little gay friend, maybe then maybe I’ll pay attention. In the meantime Heigl is just a new flavor of the month being forced down our throats by the entertainment media.

I agree, most people I know watch for George and Izzie’s romance. They are incredibly pissed off at Shonda for listening to all the shallow haters and ignoring all the people who love this couple. I am from Australia and during the summer, Katie did an interview about Gizzie stating pretty much the same thing. She said she thought the affair was out of character and a ratings ploy. She did add she LOVED Gizzie though, just not their execution. TR made similar comments. She said a few weeks back that people were torn on Gizzie, that half loved them and the other hated them, so they do know half the fanbase is rooting for Gizzie, saying nobody likes them is ridiculous, especially seeing how many fansites they have over the Net and seeing how well they do in polls.
For the record, I agree, I adore Gizzie but hate they were done as an affair and thought it was done for the shock factor.
Was reading a James Pickens interview and he likes the Gizzie story, says it is one of his favorites.

Sandra Oh, Sara Ramirez, Brooke Smith and the guy who plays Coop on PP have also said they loved the Gizzie coupling.
ood to see they have great taste.
As for the fans not liking Gizzie, I know an awful lot of people who do and think they are the ebst thing to ever happen on the show. I know noone though that loves that it started as an affair, which is what Katherine is saying. Nowhere did she say she did not like the couple, she has said in the past she loved them together and wanted them to make it, just that she hated the story, just like she loved Denny and Izzie but hated the LVAD wire thing.
Gizzie have paid for their actions, now they deserve to be happy together where they belong.
It is a shame Shonda seems to be listening to the haters and not the the fans of this couple. I thought she had more integrity and guts than that.
George and Izzie is the one good thing on the show, so without them, I have no interest in watching.

gretch, i have a crush on you, is that weird? ok good, didn’t think so. see you in AP euro

sadly, i’d respect her a lot more if she were just some other dumb celebrity that KNOWS she’s dumb.
honestly, i cannot stand her face anymore. outspoken? oh geez, nobody saw that gizziegate was a ratings ploy. and christ, where did that “sexist” comment possible come from?
not to mention she admitted to drinking right before her comment on isaiah washington. honestly, she is as shallow and stupid as the rest of them, and she needs to stop pretending otherwise.
if she thinks that making biting, obvious remarks is going to earn her respect, she’s got another think coming.
