Another Reason To Not Like Katherine Heigl

KatHeiglNoEmmy.jpg

She may be a pretty and talented actress, but that doesn't mean we hafta like her!

The Grey's Anatomy star tells L.A. Times columnist Tom O'Neil: "I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organization, I withdrew my name from contention. In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials."

Talk about snarky! While it was thoughtful of Kat to withdraw her name (thus allowing a more deserving actress the chance to get noticed), what's with the cheap shot at Anatomy's writers? Maybe they don't give her the material to "warrant an Emmy nom" because she's so difficult!

Don't forget, this is the same person that dissed the very movie (Knocked Up) that made her famous. What's your problem, Kat?



Someone needs to chill out!

She didn't diss Knocked Up - she has explained her comments numerous times yet you never report those. Just pulling one line quotes completely out of context.

It is pretty clear you dont like her by your petulant blogs every time you report on photos of her.

All year the press have blasted the writing of her character on Grey's - especially George and Izzie. How hyopcritical that when she does the decent thing and and decides not to submit an episode for consideration that she gets derided for it. Shame on you.

Anyone who was has worked with Katherine will tell you she is the complete opposite of difficult. You just want headlines and to create conflict.

hate her. like her movies sometimes, but hate her!

Actually if you bothered to watch Grey's Anatomy you would know that Katherine is right. She didn't have an outstanding storyline this year. The writing wasn't bad it's just that Izzy (Katherine's character) wasn't that much of a focus this year.

why does you x17Online-people hate katherine Heigl so much? You always write crap about her..I don't understand what she has done to you? She is always smiling and polite, and talk to you when you are "following" her. just wondering..

Posted by: sarah


remember when she was a super bitch to TR Knight and his fans? ugh.

seriously shut up x17. oe moment you say how much you love her and now you hate her. she's tellin the truth. her character wasn't that great this year and not because of her, but because of what was written. all you people at x17 do is report bullshit!

Posted by: k-mel


What she said is tacky. If she's so unhappy with the writing on the show then leave the show. LA is filled with talented actresses that would love the script. It's really sad to see people not appreciate the opportunities that they are given.

Lemme get this straight:
you love people like Britney who has "dissed" her kids, her family, etc.; people like Lindsay Lohan & Paris Hilton who have abandoned all human decency and class and you target KATHERINE HEIGL as an object to hate?
she's smart, classy, and to my knowledge. . . wears panties.
why target her? maybe because she doesn't call you to let you know when she's running to the grocery store, the gym, etc.

kelsey above said everything I was thinking ... I think she has a point really .. the writing really sucked everywhere this year because of the strike

Posted by: superchicken


Isn't an indication that an actor is good when the actor can rise above the script and deliver a good performance?

Posted by: Loki's Emissary


everyone knows she's rying to get out of her contract with the show.

SHE'S TRYING TO GET FIRED

X17 is not the only media outlet that is dissing Katherine for her statements. She is wrong for the statements that she has made in the past and now. She'll promote a movie like Knocked Up then a few months later after it's a success speak negatively about it. And now she is publicly dissing her employer. She's the same 1 who held out for a pay raise over a year ago...Guess nothing makes her happy. Script Sucks!!! Not making enough money!!! This movie is sexist!!!

Be happy that you have the opportunity to do what you absolutely love everyday!!!

she was not dissing the writers she wasnt as involved with this season not that much of her story

Nothing wrong with being honest and outspoken about her career. She is no powder puff, and I bet her husband is the same, a strong personality.

what the fuck does her wannabe musician husband have to do with it ?

Posted by: Anonymous


I should think her career and business is something her discusses with her and supports her opinions. No need to swear...

Posted by: Anonymous


She is an amazing actress and I think its honorable that she pulled out of the emmy race, i dont think she said anything negative towards the writers and she was there supporting them all thru the strike. I think all u dissers need to shut up and get over yourselves!!!

Posted by: Lindsay


oh, he'll support anything she has to say.

she pays the bills.

Posted by: Anonymous


oh my, you guys at x17 have no reason to be mad at her.. what she says is in fact true, it wassn't rude at all. anyway, greys is just lame when Izzy issn't around. so stop writing crap about her!

Posted by: holo


Then go back to making movies like Bride of Chucky!!! Whiner!!

Posted by: FreakHater


Get off her ass and report the truth. She DID NOT diss knocked up. If her writers produced shit not worthy of a nomination, there is nothing wrong with her being honest about it - the writers need to be gotten rid of.

A perfect example is Britney's second appearance on HIMYM. She was fantastic, but the script was shit.

Posted by: LefsaFan


It's funny how when she speaks, she has to do multiple interviews to explain what she REALLY meant, in the first place. What she said about Knocked Up, and now Grey's Anatomy, is pretty crappy of her. I'm sure she'll do another 30 interviews saying that she didn't mean to diss the writers. Riiiiiiight. She needs to be careful with the words that came out of her big mouth. She is quickly gaining a reputation for being arrogant and bitchy.

She's right about Knocked Up. That movie was so fucking stupid. It gives me a headache just thinking how awful it was.

Posted by: Anonymous


She was great in her 'little house on the prairie' type roles. Then she went Hollywood, became a self loved diva, so the only way to go now is DOWN!

Posted by: WTF?


She is such a stuck-up Connecticut girl. Her acting is frigid.

I fuck but I think she's right about this. Shonda and Betsy should be the fuck fired from this show. they've ruined it.

This bitch needs to pump her brakes for real! She is lucky she's had the success that she has had. She is so incredibly ungrateful! Starting with her stupid little pseudo feminist remarks about Knocked Up and now this, get over yourself! She needs to spend more time waxing that hairy ass beast she married! Her 15 minutes are long up

You've got it all backwards. Heigl didn't diss Grey's Anatomy, she dissed the meaterial the Grey's Anatomy show runner provided to her this season. And Heigl is obiously correct! Catching a homicidal caribou? A love affair with a character played by her real-life gay best friend (that every show fan is awar of)? Please.

What's more, it was Grey's Anatomy people who dissed Heigl - by planting stories like the one in the NY Post insinuating that the show's big ratings drop this season was HER fault. This while her part was shrunk and she was given crummy material!

Posted by: Terry Hughes


Why would you dislike her for telling the truth? Grey's Anatomy didn't give her much this year -- and what they did give her was bad. Knocked Up was a worthless piece of trash.

The fact that she speaks the truth makes me like her more. The fact that you are complaining about it makes me like you less.

Posted by: Mark T


Exactly. Journalists must be fair and should not take sides. unless i am wrong and the person who wrote this article is just an ordinary person who's voicing out his/her comment. whatever which way, i think Katherine did not do anything wrong when she pull out her name from the list and from saying that she was not given the right materials to warrant the n0mination. this doesn't mean that she is bashing the writers of the show because it is still the producers of Anatomy who approves the scripts. Katherine is just not a pushover and she has her own mind and she opts to use it. Better than the other actors who are like robots and keep of eating what is being fed of them.

What's the issue with her speaking the truth. The writing last season was terrible.

Posted by: Anonymous


If Katherine Heigl had been nominated and won, it would make the awards a bigger joke than sometimes I think they are. Her material this past year was crap. The only episode she might have been worthwhile in was the one with the bird man who couldn't have anesthesia. I mean really - saving a deer, bad sex with George, a potential fist fight with Callie, trying to be a cardio god? Good for her for taking her name out.

STOP writing untrue things about her. She did nothing wrong by what she said,She was NOT RUDE. She did not have much to do in season 4 and so she spoke the truth that the material she was in was just not good enough to warrant an Emmy nomination, whether she gets such a nom or not. What THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THAT! She did not called the writers any names. Obviously the only understanding you have of the spoken words are twisted ones created by you and your kind. Why dont you idiots grow up and have some common decency and fairness. Kh had always co-operated with you lousy tabloids and you treated her as if she is not a person, has no feelings of untruth,scandalous lies about her. How about reporting the complete truth of her interviews instead of just focusing on the negative created by you horrible people. Katherine is a very,talented versatile actress and I also say it was the lousy writers and esp SHONDA Rhimes who have turned a once great show into total crap, written by mental patients. It is the responsibility of the writers to create a good show,not KH who just PLAYED a role WRITTEN for her and she played Izzie brilliantly,so well that a roll that unfairly damaged her as a once strong,optimistic character in the show and as a person in real life because idiots cannot seperate a role in a tv show from a real life person. Fans of KH will remain faithful to her because we know who she really is. We are really fed-up with the rubbish falsehoods written about her.
If you dont like , dont go to her movies, dont watch GREYS because she is not going anywhere and She had stated she is very happy to be back in GREYS.
I never thought I would HATE the tabloids this much and my kind of hate is very healthy.

Posted by: fairness and truth


Oh yes about KNOCKED UP...hated that show. I could not even stayed for the end of the movie. KH was totally right about that show. Stupid.
