All about Heigl…or is it?
The biggest Grey’s news to hit the scene of late is Katherine Heigl’s rejection of an Emmy Award nomination, due to the fact that she felt she was not given a good enough “presence” in Season 4 of the series.
Well what I think can be said in two words — boo-hoo!
It’s not enough that’s she’s already won an Emmy for her role as Dr. Izzie Stevens, or that she’s making it big in the movie business — with 27 Dresses, the film she’s currently working on and the recent announcement that she will star in and produce another film — she has to gripe that she’s not getting enough play on Grey’s.
From what I could tell, that is true — she got downplayed a bit in Season 4. But seriously, the show is not all about her. Izzie had been through a lot in the past couple of seasons and maybe Shonda Rhimes thought Heigl might have needed to take a back seat this time around and will bring her more forward next time.
Maybe Heigl was just being honest about why she removed her nomination, but in this case she could have stepped up and said, “I just want to give someone else a shot” or she could have just said nothing. But I guess that’s just not her style.
It seems that maybe Heigl just needs to learn to take turns. After all, it’s not “Stevens’ Anatomy,” it is Grey’s Anatomy.
