Katherine Heigl tells it like it is. If Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes makes her work a 17-hour work day, K-Heig is going to complain about it on Letterman. If she doesn't believe that the network material she was given is worthy of an Emmy nomination, K-Heig is going to announce it from the rooftops. If she thinks the role that launched her lucrative film career is a little "sexist," you best believe that she is going to talk to Vanity Fair about it. So who is surprised that the actress chose to do some more truth-telling on her Killers promotional circuit?
No one. In a USA Today interview published yesterday, the actress further explained why she decided to leave Grey's Anatomy this year:
"I felt very protective of Izzie. I really loved her. I felt she was an admirable woman who certainly made mistakes. But I was starting to not like her, and that bothered me," she says.
Of course, that hasn't stopped her from submitting her name for Emmy consideration this year. Still, after complaining to Vanity Fair that her Knocked Up character was a "bitch" and a "killjoy," it seems like the actress is steadily disavowing all of her best-known roles, leaving the Katherine Heigl Kill Count at 2. How many more movies will she have to make before admitting that she hated her Killers character, too?
