Katherine Heigl Not Knocked Out By Knocked Up?
Knocked Up was a surprise smash with audiences this summer - but apparently, one of the film's stars found herself unable to join in on the fun! Katherine Heigl recently took the film to task for being sexist in Vanity Fair, pointing out that "it paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys. It exaggerated the characters, and I had a hard time with it, on some days. I’m playing such a bitch; why is she being such a killjoy? Why is this how you’re portraying women?” Wow, those are some pretty harsh words - hopefully she's able to take the royalties from the DVDs and turn them into something fun! (A spectacular honeymoon, perhaps?)
To be honest, we see the merits of Katherine's arguments - but it's a little hard to focus on issues of representation like those when you're doubled over in laughter!
