Everybody Hates Katherine Heigl

In an open letter in NY Magazine, columnist Emma Rosenblum addresses Katherine Heigl’s recent withdrawal from the Emmy nominations for “lack of material” and her increasingly holier-than-thou behavior. Rosenblum writes:
Okay, Heigl, we agree that Izzie’s story lines have become increasingly marginal and unbelievable. Lately, everyone on the show seems to think that Izzie’s completely irritating. So do we! We actually groan aloud when your face appears onscreen! And guess what? You’re totally annoying and self-righteous, just like Izzie!
And then (and then!) you called your own hit movie, Knocked Up, “a little sexist.” But you did it, you made lots of money, and it made you a certified movie star. Do you think you’re above the work that you do? It was a comedy, and you profited tremendously. You’re no Streep, honey, and even she does Abba with a smile.
Grey’s Anatomy is a soap opera. Get off your high horse, missy. You talk all about the integrity of the Academy? Ha! You know they’re giving an Emmy to a reality-TV show host this year, right? Stop pissing off your writers and directors and castmates.
Of course, I would have included a photograph of myself using “27 Dresses” to wipe my own ass, but that’s just me. Not everyone has my savoir-faire and sense of decorum. It’s a gift, really.
