Katherine Heigl Wins Best Supporting Actress Emmy!
Experts' predictions had Sandra Oh taking home the Best Supporting Actress honors, but when the dust settled, the Emmy went to Katherine Heigl!
Katherine, who was not only going up against the formidable Sandra Oh and a third Grey's Anatomy star, Chandra Wilson, but three of the best supporting actresses from all other drama series, was quite taken aback.
Katherine Heigl, who won in her first-ever Emmy nomination, joked that she did not prepare a speech for the occasion because "My own mother told me that I didn't have a shot in hell of winning tonight."
As cameras focused on her mother and manager, Nancy, in the crowd, Katherine Heigl laughed and added, "But she's a really big supporter. She does love me."
In closing, a tearful daughter addressed a tearful Nancy Heigl, "This is for you, this is because of you. I wouldn't want to be here without you."
Congratulations to Katherine, and to Sandra and Chandra on their nominations!

I missed the Emmy's :(

So happy for her, she deserved it more than anyone else. She worked her butt off and was phenomenal in this epi she submitted. Love what she said about her mom, and that hug with TR was pure love. I love their friendship, they have amazing chemistry even in real life.

Just out of curiousty I went on Katherine's message board on imdb.com just to see what other thought of her winning the emmy. Boy, I lot of people didn't think she deserved it.[Granted it could have been the same person just using different screenames]
Anyhoo, I am just happy that anyone from Grey's won. Just wish it would have been Sandra or Chandra though.
Oh well, she really rocked it in Season 2 and I think that's what they were based on.

I believe that Katherine Heigl shouldn't have one the Emmy.
I believe that the Emmy's are officially a joke.
I believe that this is the beginning of the end.
I believe that Katherine Hiegl is going to demand a red carpet no matter where she walks.
I believe that I have never valued Isaiah 'getting fired' more than I have today.
I believe that Sandra should just walk away when she has a chance.
And I believe that believing these makes me an intelligent person and by saying that I believe that I have the belief that this whole thing is just a joke.

She looks stunning in this picture... I love her!

That's great, it starts with an Emmy, divas and awards, and then a raise.
Isaiah Washington is not afraid. Start of another speech, listen to yourself hurl,
Katherine gets another scene regardless of the snubbed lead. Eat it up with butter, use a spoon, no a fork, knife, no. PSAs and chokegate. Floppy hair and Mer break. up. a-gain. Triangles, Octangles, everyone's sleeping together a-gain.
It's the end of Grey's as we know it.
It's the end of Grey's as we know it.
It's the end of Grey's as we know it.
And I feel fine.....

Sunday, September 16, 2007 â€" a date which will live in infamy - the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by bad taste and acting ability of Katherine Hy-gel.
The United States was at peace with the fact that she could not act and, at the solicitation of Academy of Arts, was still in conversation with the various television and movie distributors looking toward the keeping her off television entirely.
Indeed, one hour after Hy-gel won, a plane crashed in Thailand and OJ was arrested. While this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue giving out Emmys based upon talent and acting, it contained no threat or hint of realism or acting merit.
It will be recorded that the tragedy that was her performance makes it obvious that the this bullshit was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time, the Emmy people has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued good acting on television.
The attack today on the American taste has caused severe damage to American television and cinema forces. Very many American lives have been lost. In addition, American acting talent has been reported torpedoed on a grand scale between Las Angeles and New York City.

I said it before and I'll say it again....why doesn't anyone think she desevered the emmy? She's a great actress on the show but in real life...well she just like every other famous person, she thinks she can say whatever she wants because she's famous. But if you push all of that aside, that girl rocks it on Grey's Anatomy and that's why she won.

Ellen Pompeo and Sandra Oh has same-ish haircuts. Can anyone say LAME STORYLINE?? I think I figured it out and it would go something like this . . .
CRISTINA: Why are we getting our hair cut again?
MEREDITH: Because we're being strong women or whatever. We don't need men. We don't need hair. We should shave our heads.
CRISTINA: Fight the power.
KATHERINE HEIGL/IZZIE aka dumb bitch: I don't have to cut my hair. Because I'm not one of your 'ooooh best friends' but I don't care because I'm best friends with my Emmy.

Sandra and Chandra deserved more than Katherine. She won for IW story.
