ABC Not Pleased With Katherine Heigl’s Whining
President of ABC Entertainment Stephen McPherson called Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl’s recent appearance on Late Night with David Letterman “unfortunate,” says Perez Hilton.
“Our first day back was Wednesday,” Heigl told Letterman when she appeared on his show July 20, “And it was – I’m going to keep saying this because I hope it embarrasses them – a 17-hour day, which I think is cruel and mean.”
“I’m guessing if you’re working 17 hours, that means you’re not dead,” responded the host, attempting to reveal the fate of Heigl’s character, Izzie Stevens, who is currently battling cancer.
“What if, however, Dave, I was in a bed in a coma for 17 hours?,” replied the actress. “They could do that to me.”
“People are going to behave in the way they choose to behave,” McPherson commented about the incident. “There are so many people who work so hard on Grey’s, and all of our shows, without any notoriety, and those are the ones I’d be concerned about, people who feel like they’re being criticized or looked down upon.”
