ummm...how is she snoby?[someone above made a comment about how she's snoby or how she came off snoby] I must have missed something. I guess I'll read read the article again just in case I missed something but I'm sure that I didn't.
I think she's an amazing actress and she has every right to pick her projects. She is the only reason that I am going to tune in to Grey's Anatomy next season.

I always enjoy ellen's interview's. She is always honest about her feelings and situations. She comes across as a REAL PERSON. That truly UNDERSTANDS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE REAL WORLD. What I really like about her is that she bolts out of hollywood the first chance she can get.She knows who the phonies are. She works there 10 months out of the year. Who in their right mind wants to be in that environment any longer than they need to. She is a good actor. As time goes on I'm hoping the films she picks will allow everyone to see what a great actor she really is. I love old movies,so, for me she reminds me of a (Young Lauren Bacall or Kate Hepburn). As the years go on she will become one of the greats. Ellen definitely is NOT A SNOB.

Hmmm……. after reading some comments, i just felt i have to say something.
firstly, it is a well known fact that people either like you or hate you no matter what. However, its still not right to jugde a person from what the media say. Secondly, this interview doesnt sound right at all. Ellen, sounded like she is really missing her mum, which concerns me. She has never ever said much about her mum before, but she did now. People only miss their dead mum when they feel alone or scared. Thirdly, i watched a couple of GA co stars on set videos some months back and i particularly saw ellen playing around. One she was on T. R's back and the other she was laughing at what patrick dempsey was saying. That to me doesnt look like a diva behaviour. Also, ellen in almost all her interviews always said she is grateful for having a job and she loves the people she works with. Fourthly, i have never read any interviews were any of her co stars said something negative about her. But like i said,

She os one amazing woman.
Love her and admire her more and more. She's a great role model. forgiving, down to earth, loving person. Who actually thinks of others for a change.
I hope she gets credit for her great acting as well. Maybe a Golden Globe in the coming few months. sad about the Emmys, she was snubed big time, oh well, atleast her fans know shes great.

Ellen Pompeo is my reason for wathcing Grey's Anatomy. She is an amazing actress and even more wonderful person. I love these interviews thanks for sharing everyone.
She looks stunning in all those photos.
August 20th, 2007 3:01 PM
I know this has already been said, but I have to say it again, Ellen is such an incredible person, she is such an inspiration, and she has such a good head on her shoulders, I loved this interview, and I am so happy that she has found success, because if one person deserved it, it's her. This makes me so excited for Grey's again, to me Ellen makes the show what it is, because she is such a phenomenal actress. These pictures are also really gorgeous, she is so stunningly beautiful, it's almost not normal.

She is amazing.
August 20th, 2007 12:38 PM
Ellen Pompeo was the reason I started watching Grey's Anatomy. I became a big fan of hers after watching Moonlight Mile and when I saw she was doing this show, I started watching and of course, Meredith became my favorite character.
Meredith, like so many women has issues in her life. She's an everyday woman who is so relatable for many of us who watch. We cheer this character on and want her to find happiness. I feel the same for the actress that plays her. She seems warm and full of respect for what she has. That's so rare for celebs anymore.
It's little wonder why her co stars like her so. She makes GA for me every week.

You are welcome everyone.
I'm glad to share this interview because I think all Grey fans should read it, specially Ellen fans. Its a rare one where it tackles private issues and Ellen was comfortable enough to talk about them to this reporter. It shows a very human sad side of Ellen, but a strong optimistic one at the same time.
I love it.

Thanks for the link to that interview! It was amazing. It makes me actually want to like her because I know at times I don't like her.
I'm so excited for next season, not to mention the 6 and 7th. Let's just live life in the moment, who knows if their popularity will continue after Isiah Washington leaving.

that was a really sad interview about her mum and i felt bad for ellen and thank you soo much ''love ellen'' i really needed that interview
August 20th, 2007 10:47 AM
Hey "Love Ellen" thanks for the link. Again great interview. I felt really sad when she was talking about her mum and she said " I had everybody but the one person I really wanted".

Hafsa I agree with you, Any actor and actress successful on a tv show has every right to choose the movies they want to be in, Since they have a steady tv job.
Ellen just signed for 7 seasons, so she gurranteed a few good seasons ahead, even if Grey's stops in the coming couple of seasons, which I hope not, she has secured a place with ABC for being a very popular tv actress for the fans. So they will star her in another show and so on... so they have the right to say no to movies that have little roles or roles with no real strong charecters behind them.
I love this interview, and I have to agree with the writer who said the UK Telegrpah interview that came out yesterday is even stronger and more comprehensive for Ellen. A rare one that is.
She is a really nice person it seems, sweet and kind. down to earth and lovely. and a kicka$$ actress for that matter. :)

In response to "What a snob" comment post Number 2. Did you at all read the entire interview and understood it? Ellen said " I can't take advantage of them because the show doesn't let me. I never have to do another movie I'm not proud of" it means theremay be some movies she did, but was not proud of. May be before she needed the money and therefore had to do just any movie that comes her way. But not anymore. Now she has the opportunity of choosing which ones she wants to do.
For the love of God is that a bad thing? I think this is one of the best ellen's interviews i have read. No offence but did you also wrote you were giving Ellen Pompeo the benefit of the doubt? you have got to be kidding me.

Reading that interview just made my day. I really enjoyed it. And ellen handled the questions very well. emmm... why will anyone think she is a snob? seriously? what will be the point in her doing just any movie if she doesnt like it? Sandra Oh is a very talented actress and i am sure she also had many offers. But we havent thus far seen her in any recent movie have we? My point is, personally i think its better not to do a movie at all, if at the end of the day its going to be a flop.
August 20th, 2007 9:49 AM
i love her soooooo mush she is soo great and down to earth and just plain amazing thank you soo much for posting that it was great!!!!!!!
August 20th, 2007 9:48 AM
That was a great interview. I just hope that more people would appreciate her more. She's one great lady.
August 20th, 2007 8:43 AM
i reaally love ellen pompeo,,,,she's so hot omg she really rock my world,,,how i wish i can see you personally..
August 20th, 2007 8:41 AM
Ellen rocks!
This was a very nice interview. but the best one came after it, it was released two days ago from the UK in the Telegraph newspaper.
She is very down to earth and human. And you feel with her.
I can't understand how you can judge her like that from her interview, it seems you didn't understand her words, or read the full interview.
She is very down to earth and friendly form all the fans you met her. And from what her costars say about her.
I personally think Ellen is great in every way because she is human and shows it. You relate to her.
thanks for posting the interview.
I think you should post the Telegraph interview as well. Its even better than this one.
can't wait for season 4 to start.
August 20th, 2007 8:38 AM
Ellen rocks & she looks SERIOULY HOT in those photos. & i´m SO happy she´s signed for up to seven seasons. I hope patrick has done the same. I know he´s sighned up six seasons
August 20th, 2007 8:35 AM
I THINK SHE IS GREAT, SHE IS SO DOWN TO EARTH, IF SHE CAN CHOOSE WHAT SHE WANT'S TO DO, MORE POWER TO HER.
August 20th, 2007 8:04 AM
This has to be the worst interview she did. I'm sorry, but she came like a total snob in this interview especially only doing A-List movies part. I'm sorry, but she is not an A-List star. Heck, I know for a fact she isn't a household name. She is barely recognizable, and the work she did before Grey's not many of the general public know about except for Old School.
I was giving this girl the benefit of the doubt ever since that Punk'd incident, but I guess the rumors are true about her. What a shame.
August 20th, 2007 7:41 AM
what a great interview.....you know if i didn't see that youtube video where she got punk'd i would absolutely love her! (she was so catty in the video, but maybe it was a bad day and she was feeling overly jealous of her bf and the waitress). anyhow, she seems very real and cool, but again who knows how long they can take to prepare their answers. we need to see her on a barbara walters special to really gauge her personality!
