Sick of Heigl
June 15th, 2008 8:40 AM
I'm sick of Heigl. She's not talented. Not pretty. Not worth talking about.
I have no idea why she's in the media so much. She should be dropped from the cast. She has nothing going for her on the show, and clearly she thinks she's better than anyone. I have no idea why.
She needs to shut up. KH was a nobody, as far as I'm concerned she still is a nobody. Just a nobody with a big ungrateful mouth now.

If what she wants is to leave the show then she's actually being very smart. She's criticizing the writers and what she gets paid, so instead of having to be on Grey's for three more seasons they'll get fed up with her, write her off and she'll have her way... it's strategy.

shondra should drop her sorry ass. it's one thing to try and say that you don't want to be considered for an emmy (since you obviously believe that you will be) but if you really feel that the material was the problem, then grow up and be a professional and talk to the producers about it privately. she was nothing before this show, and this is how she repays them? forget her! i hope that when the new season starts izzie will have been hit by lightning and killed.

katherine heigl is so full of herself. no matter how great she is at acting, she's not gonna get anywhere if nobody wants to work with her. of all people, i hate the ones who have no sense of gratitude. heigl is one such person. i'll throw a party when she gets kicked out of the show.

I love Gizzie but this is the one time I could bear Izzie. Since the writer have ended Gizzie and seem too cowardly to go back there even though many of us love them, she can go. She annoys me whinin g all the time.

If you watch any of her movies...you will find out that Katherine is an EXTREMELY gifted actress. To watch her in 27 dresses, Knocked Up, and The Ringer (just to name a few) and then see her in Grey's with the storylines they give her....you will understand where she is coming from. I mean seriously people. She accepted and WON the award last year. She did SO MUCH in Grey's last year. Remember her drilling holes into a guy's head? Remember her keeping that check on the fridge and then giving it to make the clinic? Or how about helping pay for that girl's back surgery? Aside from the finale, give me ONE good storyline that Izzie has been a part of in season 4. SHE RESCUED A DEER!!! The writers have made her into this cheesy little girl who resembles nothing of someone who came from a trailer park and fought like hell to get through medical school. It shows no backbone or the woman who we learned to take control. I agree that she should have kept her reasoning for turning the

I am loving the writer/producer comment. I wish I could give them a hug! :) KH is ungrateful. I'd kill (not really) for her career...

I only loved Izzie in the Gizzie story. She had amazing chemistry with TR, she does not with Justin or anyone else. She can leave.

OKay, I just looked at the tmz video, first of all yes katie did sound harsh. But i still go with what i said b4, they ask does she think its because of the strike and she said no, i wasn't given good material. Thats a shot to the writers there is no reading between the lines to that. Come on?

All I gotta say is what a cheap shot she took at the writers. I'm sorry but first of all I do NOT watch Grey's Anatomy for her character. I do like her, but these statments that she is saying are ridiculous. She needs to look at the big picture, she has become the great actress and this great fame through the show. She even had evil things to say about Knocked Up, I was hearing. You would think that being her first big film and it did really good, she wouldn't knock it. Its really sad to see how big her ego is getting, and she's really letting it take over. I went to the Grey's Anatomy fundraiser they threw for the writers for the strike, and she says this? Wow, im really disappointed in here. I'm sure her fans are rethinking who she really is.

Heigl has freedom of speech, but then again, SO DO THE WRITERS! The writers gave her a "gateway" to her romantic - comedy movie success that is now, and she says that the don't give her emmy winning material? I don't think so. And if anything gets anywhere NEAR to Izzie's/Stevens's Anatomy, I'm not watching.
By the way, I think that only a MORON would overlook actresses like Chandra Wilson or Ellen Pompeo, or Sandra Oh. ANY of them deserve and Emmy.

If the show suddenly becomes Izzy's Anatomy because of Heigl's misplaced temper tantrum then I for one will stop watching.

If Kathryn has plans for the show to become Steven's Anatomy, based on two successful movie roles, she has another think coming. I've always felt that, next to the other costars, she has had larger roles all along. Chandra is so talented - she deserves that Emmy!

i saw the video and don't find her being arrogent at all. she was being followed by people taking her picture constantly and just answered there question in a way most people would.

I saw the video on tmz and I have to say that Katherine Heigl may be a little rude to the writers and the cameras but she is also considering the other actresses in the race, including the ones from Greys Anatomy. She may have offended the writers by her comments but it could have been out of modesty and her disappointment in where her character was going.

Katie Heigl is a very good actress, but definitely an ungrateful one. She was the only one complaining when there were other actors in the show that didn't get as much exposure this season. If she is as good an actress as Chandra Wilson, she would have been able to make even small parts memorable. She is just one ungrateful actress whose been blessed with so much but failed to recognize her blessings with humility. Pity. But the world turns, she won't have box office hits all the time.

You shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you and I have a feeling Heigl has bitten of more then she can chew. I think it's great the the writers fired back at her, she completely deserves that. Honestly with her attitude being this way I wouldn't be suprised if she gets kicked off the show. She'll only bring down the show this way. She needs to stop complaining, so what if your material wasn't at your best this season, deal with it, stop acting like a immature child because you didn't get what you wanted. Your the actress your suppose to convey the writing even if you don't like it if you do it well enough it shouldn't matter. She needs to stop playing everyone else as the villian, I honestly think she's just trying to pull publicity stunts for attention now.

Kate, my advice for you would be to watch the TMZ video. Her arrogant and sassy attitude shines real bright in that one. She totally ment in a negative way, just listen to how she talks.

she said that she wasn't giving emmy worthy material, she never said that the show wasn't emmy worthy or that the rest of the characters didn't have emmy worthy material. She also never said that the writers were bad. People are trying to read between the lines, when in fact there aren't any lines to read between. I truely believe she was trying to do something out of respect and everyone is flipping out, leave her alone.

it's true that season 4 has no space for izzie. Her character is boring and not attractive like season2 or 3. I think ,Heigl speak the truth about this.
and i think Everyone knows about this.

I also watched the show for Gizzie and have pretty much stopped watching since they ended. The critics may not have liked them but many fans did and still do. I post on FF and we got 8 new fans just this week and we are the second biggest fanbase afetr MerDer with 326 fans there.
But anyhow, the only time I was able to tolerate Izzie was with the Gizzie romance, it brought out the best in her, she and Alex togetehr are etrrible.
TR brought out the best in Katie and George is still enjoyable without Izie but Izzie is not without him.

I only like Izzie with george, if they pair her with Alex, I hate them so much, I'd rather she leave. George makes her tolerable, but she is an annoying twerp most of the time.
If there was a chance for Gizzie, I would want her to stay, but if not, she can leave.
