(Truth be told, I wanted to use another noun in the headline but thought better of it.)
I am altogether convinced that this story about divalicious Katherine Heigl is true:
The Grey’s Anatomy star has come under fire on the set of her latest movie Five Killers for being “extremely unprofessional,” flaking on meetings and making ridiculous demands.
Apparently the 30-year-old star has been demanding that she be flown by private plane to and from the film’s international locations, and has also requested “crazy amounts of security.”
But the rumors hardly end there.
According to an extra on the film 27 Dresses, “Heigl reportedly refused to film any scenes until her pregnant assistant ran around and got her a Coke Zero. She refused to eat lunch next to anyone or have anyone speak to her once the cameras stopped rolling.”
“No one on the crew likes her,” an inside source said.
“She has a sense of entitlement that is really off-putting,” another source learned. “Many directors that she’s worked with in the past do not want to work with her again.”
After all, this is a woman who is prone to publicly demand that her bosses treat her with respect and has no doubts about what she deserves. Making your heavily pregnant assistant get you a soda before you agree to work — definitely fits the bill. It’s always the ones who go on about respectfulness and kindness and dignity who have none of the above.

I did find it amusing how the attached story doesn’t call her an actress, just a star. I guess she is not good enough to be called an actress, but they will call her a star.
I actually enjoyed “knocked up” and “27 Dresses” Good thing that it was not because of her.
Never has someone so talent-free and unburdened by accomplishment thought so much of herself for so long.
No, wait. What’s Madonna doing this week, anyway?
I got nothin’
This knucklehead is going to tank very soon if she doesn’t wise up sooner. It’s happened to better actresses than her even. Sad.
Unless you are someone who has shown herself to be a real star, acting like this will guarantee a lack of work in the future. And even in the real stars who people will put up with because they are that badass, it just looks ugly.
There’s a codpiece joke in here somewhere but I just can’t seem to find it…
Beige, I just laughed so hard I had a sunflower seed come out my nose.
I hope you’re pleased with yourself.
Me too. And I wasn’t even eating any!
It’s interesting. When you hear stories about Julia Roberts (true or not) they talk about how she is a pleasure to work with, hangs with the crew, buys them lunch, etc. Same with Reese Witherspoon. These are award winning actresses who have been steadily working in the industry for years and will probably continue to do so. Perhaps Katherine can sit down with them to see if there is a way to salvage her sinking career. Not that I want her to, because I think she seems like a major bitch, but it’s something she could try.
And it showed in Reese’s work in “Walk the Line”. Before that she did fluff (and somewhat funny) peices, but her kindness and dedication paid off.
Crap. I had meant to post that on the Piven “mercury poisoning” thread. Oh, well, glad you enjoyed it.
Heigl acts like someone who screams her own name in moments of great passion.
In a business where a woman’s career longevity depends heavily on her looks, which are guaranteed to fade sooner or later, Heigl might want to consider stepping slowly away from the bitchery. She’s attractive, but this is not a legendary beauty we’re discussing, and it’s not like her thespian stylings in Brett Ratner’s “Hamlet vs. Predator” will someday wow critics.
In short, she needs to get down on her knees and kiss the ground trod by the likes of Helen Mirren or Judi Dench, either of whom can fart more brilliantly than Heigl can act.
She didn’t show her sweater puppies in Knocked Up so she’s on my sh*t list. Moving on….
I’d hit it.
So what if she made a pregnant assistant get a Coke? I once demanded my aunt stopped screaming during labor so I could finish the Rock of Love Charm School marathon on. She was making too much damn noise.
Where’s a good Petruchio when you need one?
You can tell when some people are less-than-wonderful IRL and Princess Heigl is one of them.
I really wanted to not hate her but she has made it impossible. I totally agreed with her statement last year that she didn’t deserve to be nominated for an Emmy on Grey’s because her part was total crap–she was being honest. A surgeon saving a deer in the parking lot? Stupid. But, unfortunately, it seems that her ego has gotten the better of her now. Her movies are vapid and forgettable. I counted about 7 scenes in 27 dresses that I have seen in countless “girl” movies from the past. Meg Ryan & Julia Roberts did them much better the first time and I am tired of seeing them repeated as a substitute for great storytelling and good acting. These should not have been ego-boosting experiences for her anymore than Grey’s has been the last 2 years, so where she is getting the attitude, I don’t understand.
She looks fabulous.
I don’t know, I think her hair looks like she styled it with a Cuisinart.
Katherine, baby? It’s called an updo. Look into it.
