  1. Katherine Heigl Suspends Contract Talks

    "In my opinion, she also does a great job of self promotion."

    Standing up for one's friends is NOT self-promotion. I happen to admire her for speaking up about the gay-slur issue.

    Another thing, actors do not get interviewed in talk shows if they aren't doing publicity for something. They can't just wake up one day and decide to appear on Letterman because they feel like it.

    Katherine has been in a lot of talk shows recently but that's for the show's publicity and the Pedigree Adoption Drive in N.Y. (she was the spokesperson). She was there to promote her charity. How can you not admire that?

  2. Katherine Heigl: The GQ Interview

    gorgeous woman! i love katherine heigl in a non-gay kind of way (not that there's anything wrong with that). i seem to be having a girl-crush on her ever since i met her on the street in N.Y. a few weeks ago. she was so beautiful and so nice. it wasn't just a friendly hello and then away. she actually took the time to talk to us fans despite the fact that i was embarrrassingly over-excited to meet her. now how many actresses would actually waste valuable minutes to speak to fans on the street?

    i don't smoke myself but i have no objection to people who do. so what if she smokes? it's her right. like Amanda said previously, this is a free country. give the girl a break, people.

  3. Katherine Heigl Earns Co-Stars' Praise

    there was nothing in the people.com report that says it was katherine's people who leaked the story. touchstone's statement also never denied putting it in the press. the article only credited the report to a "well-placed source". how reliable is that?

    remember patrick dempsey's renegotiation just a few months ago? it also caused quite a stir then. notice any similarity? it may be touchstone who leaked both negotiations to gain some media leverage ("let's make the actress look greedy so we can keep giving her crappy pay").

    we are all just reacting to media reports. we may never know what happened and who leaked the story so i think we should just stop being so judgemental of the girl and get on with our lives.

  4. Report: Two-Hour Grey's Anatomy Event to Begin Planned Kate Walsh Spinoff

    spin-offs generally do not do well. i really hope they abandon this plan and keep kate walsh in the show. splitting the cast might just make one of the shows suffer. they should just focus on writing great scripts and keeping grey's anatomy the best show on tv.

    grey's anatomy is an ensemble show. they may focus a little bit more on the mer-der dynamic but all the characters contribute to it's success. otherwise, they would have done a show about only derek and meredith. it will definitely be a big loss if addison or any of the interns and doctors leave.

    i admire katherine for standing up for herself. she is under a long-term contract but actors have an option to renegotiate after a few years. no actor would ask for a lot of money at the beginning of a show when they still don't know if it would be a hit. it did become a hit, that's why they are all renegotiating their contracts. why else would the bosses even waste their time negotiating with her?

    remember patrick dempsey's renegotiation just a few months ago? it also caused quite a stir then. notice any similarity? i think it's touchstone who leaked both negotiations to gain some media leverage ("let's make the actress look greedy so we can keep giving her crappy pay"). I don't think she's whiny. she's just asking for what she deserves and what she deserves is equal pay.
