I want to like Katherine Heigl because I think that she's pretty, isn't bone-skinny and doesn't appear to be a big slut/party animal, which is a rare find in Hollywood. But for some reason, she seems determined to confuse me with her mixed messages.
First off, there was her whole issue with her hit movie, "Knocked Up," which leads me to simply say, "Hey, didn't you read the script? OK, case closed." If she felt so strongly about the film's message, maybe she shouldn't have been in it.
Now, it looks like she's doing some of the same for her film, "27 Dresses," which looks like another women-chasing-after-the-marriage-dream-at-all-costs chick flick that I probably wouldn't bother going to see, but hey, it's not my movie. On Letterman, Katherine plays the holier-than-thou card once again, hinting that she wouldn't pay to go see her movie, and acts like she'd already forgotten about the fact that she had seen it. OMG, if you think you're impressing us with your I'm-so-much-better-than-the-dreck-I'm-starring-in attitude, then you're sorely mistaken, chica.
Finally, she's so ridiculously condescending in all of her anecdotes about her husband, Josh--nay, JosHUA Kelley--how he's a show-off and busted his nose skiing two days before the ceremony (which I guess explains the crazy airbrushing) when she specifically WARNED HIM NOT TO, how she contemplated being a runaway bride, and basically just how she insists on calling him Joshua as opposed to Josh as a way to express her dominance. Seriously, I'm pretty sure she's carrying around his balls in that gorgeous purse of hers.

I'll take your word for it. I'm certainly not going to willingly sit and listen to this hen prattle on about anything.
mar says:
I despise this woman - she is horrid to listen to - yap yap yap. I'm gonna laugh so hard when she falls off the face of the earth after her 15 minutes are over (which I hope is soon) and then gets a divorce, hehehehehe.
cella says:
She bugs the fuck. Overrated. NEXT!
Insider says:
Yeah, I have decided I don't like her after watching this.
If I was JOSH Kelley, I'd have some serious second thoughts. How is your wife going to get on national T.V. and clown the shit out of you?
She's wack.
Randy says:
Oh man, I totally feel the same way. I want to love her because she is so beautiful, but then she starts speaking and that's when I get an uneasy feeling in my stomach and brain. She was on The Today Show this morning and I actually flipped to GMA gave them some short of a rating! However, it wasn't much better. I wonder what we can do about this problem? Oh wait, we won't even remember who she is by this time next year.
Ruby Jackson says:
Arrogance.
Logan says:
The thing that bugs me about her is her rather pointy teeth. I try not to beez a toof freak, but all of her teeth a too pointy for my comfort.
mceez says:
THANK YOU LOGAN! her teeth are incredibly disturbing. i can't watch her during close-ups.
Alek says:
Wow, are you guys depressing. You want to like her cause she's pretty and starts in a dumb but entertaining movie/TV show, but god forbid she goes and expresses a strong personal opinion about anything.
For a refresher on stupid statements about women to avoid, read MediaMatters.com's compendium of sexist comments by one Chris Matthews. My favorite (not unlike yours): "Matthews stated that [Condoleeza] Rice is a "very attractive woman, very likable woman, almost, if she weren't so smart, Miss Congeniality."" (http://mediamatters.org/items/200801170001?f=s_search)
Yeah, women would be so likeable if they didn't act all smart and stuff. *sarcarsm alert*

I don't think Heigl is "acting smart". I think she's overblown and full of hot air. And not a very nice person at that. Talking smack about the movies you're starring in - not so smart. Talking smack about that man you just married - not so smart. Smoking like a freight train every time the camera is pointed at you - not so smart. Yeah, I can't stand it when b*tches get all uppity, either. But this b*tch? Just plain stupid.

JaneSays says:
Could you find a more hideous "actress" in Hollywood nowadays? Damn!!! She's not even 30 and looks 45 on a good day and always makes way too much of a big deal over movies that she doesn't deserve to star in. She's a big ass YAWN. Wake me when she does something relevant or interesting. That poor husband of hers. It's so not rock-n-roll to have your fug-ass wife calling all the shots, JOSH!!
J says:
I can't stand this trick with her loud annoying voice, clown lipstick, and shiny face. She seems like one of those women who thinks she's so tough and outspoken, but she's just a straight-up bitch. Who the hell cares if she spoke up for TR Knight with the whole Isiah-gate? Shutup. SHE needs to not speak in public. She needs to be knocked down a few pegs.

YEah, this heffer bother the hell outta me also...she just so dam annoying with that holier than thou attitude. Who the hell does she think she is? She a nobody who just happened to luck out! She needs to shut her pie hole and keep her freaking stupid ass opinions to herself...Hey Katherine, nobody cares...about you!
meaux says:
She's becoming more and more like Ashley Judd. Scary.
Fuchsia says:
How her husband isn't already somewhere hanging by his belt in a closet is beyond me.
She is infinitely annoying. Every single time she opens her mouth, she makes herself even more unlikable. Does she really think that she's making herself look good by trashing every role she takes? NOOOOO!!! If you hate the way you're being portrayed in film, don't take the role!
She did an interview in Cosmo recently...I couldn't even read the entire thing. She is so self-righteous and arrogant, it's unbelievable. And God knows, she is absolutely not attractive.
janbo says:
What Pinkweenie said. Actually what everyone said, except Alex. PS: it's not the fact that she might have strong opinions, it's the cloyingly annoying and self righteous manner in which she delivers them. well, that and the fact that most of her strong opinions are goofy as shit.
rdiggity1 says:
She started as a girl in a thong showing her ass at 14. IMDB it I suppose.
Chula says:
I was surprised how unprofessional she was at the Oscars when she presented. She said she was so nervous and she really was uncontrollably nervous. Her voice and hands shook. It was a shock to see how she couldn't act on the spot professionally because she was so self-proclaimed nervous. It showed her true colors. Even Jessica Alba sounded relaxed and comfortable and professional saying her presenter lines. Say what you will about her personality, I thought she was a professional actor. It was embarrassing she barely got through the lines. I saw through the cracks in her well-crafted image. I bet that was humble pie for her, or maybe not.
