JOSH STANDS BY HIS WOMAN

Joined by her BFF T.R. Knight, Grey’s Anatomy beauty Katherine Heigl spends the afternoon house-hunting for a new home on Thursday.

It’s no secret Katherine wants to start a family and she will certainly need a larger home.

Meanwhile, there’s no shortage of industry insiders willing to weigh in on Katherine’s recent comments about pulling herself out of Emmy contention, and how much it angered folks behind the scenes of Grey’s.

But the foot-in-mouth actress does have someone in her corner: her husband, Josh Kelley. “I’m always supportive of Katie, no matter what she does,” the hairy-chested crooner tells Us Weekly.

Hence, their recent photo-op/getaway to Cabo San Lucas. “We needed time away from work and industry hassles,” he says. Josh also has shown other signs of support in the relationship, according to the mag. He’s “learning how to do Katherine’s curlers … if you are wondering why my guitar sounds weird, it’s because I burnt my pinkie on the curlers.”

KATHERINE’S ANATOMY

Life’s a beach for Katherine Heigl.

The disgruntled Grey’s Anatomy star was snapped jamming to her iPod while rocking a colourful bikini at her Los Feliz home.

Katherine is coming off a week of highs and lows. After offering up “an ungrateful slap in the face” to the writers of her hit ABC show (when she withdrew her name from the Emmy race claiming she was “not given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination), the down and out actress headed for the border for a sun-filled vacay in Mexico with hubby Josh Kelley.

Now that she’s back at home, the question is: What will Grey’s writers do to seek vengence on the ungracious actress? Put her into a coma for the entire season? Write her off completely? The possibilities are endless!

GIRLFRIEND SERIOUSLY NEEDS A VACATION

Enjoying her summer hiatus from Grey’s Anatomy, Katherine Heigl and hubby Josh Kelley ran for the border over the weekend for a little fun in the sun in Cancun.

The gorgeous newlyweds were decked out in their vacation best as they were spotted arriving in Mexico yesterday to kick off their romantic getaway.

Meanwhile back at home, an editor at NY Magazine has lashed out at Katherine following her decision to bow out of this year’s Emmy eligibility. This one is a must-read, guys!

Dear Katherine (Kate? Katie?),

So you’ve acted out once again (no pun intended!). You’ve withdrawn your name from Emmy eligibility, because, in your words, ”I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination.” And now you’ve started a fight with the writers of Grey’s Anatomy. Their feelings are hurt, Katie: “It’s an ungrateful slap in the face,” one show insider told EW. You actually won the Emmy for supporting actress last year, which was really so lovely for you. So why, this year, are you so sure your material doesn’t even warrant a nomination? Let’s think.

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 perky face appears onscreen! There’s a theory we have about this, Katherine, so listen closely. Have you ever thought that maybe the writers are incorporating your own personality into that of your character? Because we read a lot of women’s magazine and gossip sites, and we think we kind of know you at this point. And guess what? You’re totally annoying and self-righteous, just like Izzie!

Of course, we, too, were offended by Isaiah Washington. He called your on- and-off-screen best friend, T.R. Knight, a faggot, and that’s just uncalled for. You established yourself as Knight’s defender and kept speaking to the press about how Washington should be fired. So we guess that’s nice of you and all, but you really should have let your friend fight his own battle. You ended up looking pretty darn priggish.

And then (and then!) you called your own hit movie, Knocked Up, “a little sexist.” You have a right to your opinion, and we might even agree with you. But you were Apatow’s first choice for that movie, you did it, you made lots of money, and it made you a certified movie star. What possessed you to bash it? 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.

Now we’re going to throw you a bone: We think you’re a talented comedic actress. That’s right, your timing is much better than most, and you have a goofy onscreen persona that combines nicely with your California-girl looks. Plus, My Father the Hero was one of our favorite movies growing up, so we’ll always have a soft spot for you, Heig-y. Though last week, in a dark moment, we watched 27 Dresses on demand. Now that was a case of writers messing up your material.

So please take our advice. 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. We want to like you, Katherine, really. Please stop making it so hard to do so.

Warmest regards,
Emma Rosenblum

One word: OWNED!!!

HEIGL SKIPS EMMY BUT DOESN’T MISS LUNCH

Katherine Heigl and hubby Josh Kelley were spotted lunching at the Mustard Seed Cafe in Los Angeles today.

This is the Grey’s Anatomy actress’ first public appearance since dropping out of Emmy contention.

Earlier today, Katherine, who won best supporting actress last year, quit the Emmy race, telling The Los Angeles Times: “I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organization, I withdrew my name from contention,” She added, “In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials.”

Hmm, think that’s a slam at the Grey’s writers? And if so, is it justified?

THE HEIGL LADIES GO SHOPPING

Katherine Heigl spends the holiday weekend shopping for furniture with her mother, aunt and assistant on Robertson Blvd in Los Angeles.

The foursome picked up several bags and boxes of merchandise before stopping at baby boutique Bel Bambini to pick up a gift wrapped package.

Could that loose-fitting poncho be concealing the beginnings of a baby bump? After all, Grey’s Anatomy is done for the season and she has no big projects coming up after she wraps up filming The Ugly Truth alongside Gerard Butler next month.

Stay tuned!!

Bare shoulders were plentiful on one-shoulder Grecian gowns and sleeveless structured bust-lines at Sunday night’s 80th Annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles.

Katherine Heigl, who wore red, the colour of the night (especially on her cheeks), paired her Escada gown with a Marilyn Monroe-inspired blond bob.

The Grey’s Anatomy beauty’s one-shoulder, cinched-waist gown had a keyhole detail that added a nice couture touch.

Do we love it or do we love it?

SHOPPING POUR DEUX

Following an exhuastive weekend promoting her new flick 27 Dresses (or 27 Robes as it’s otherwise known), TV star-turned-big screen leading lady Katherine Heigl enjoys an afternoon of shopping with her mother in glorious Paris on Monday.

Does the ever-present paparazzi make you feel sorta sorry for the Grey’s Anatomy beauty as she tries to enjoy a mother-daughter day off? Save your pity.

Katherine says she feels sorry for the scores of paparazzi who spend hours following her around — because her life is boring.

In a new interview, Dr. Izzie claims she was shocked at the number of snappers waiting outside her house the day after her Emmy success in November last year — when she won Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. But she doesn’t mind the intrusion - because it is all part of being a successful Hollywood actress.

Says the camera-friendly starlet: “The paparazzi are a whole new deal to me. It started slowly, I’d see one or two every once in a while and then one day after the Emmys there were 20. I was like ‘Arrrrgh!’ I feel guilty, though, because I never do anything interesting and they’ve waited outside my house all day. I often complain about people moaning about the paparazzi because if you want the money you make and the big movie roles, then it’s the price you have to pay.”

Looking ready for Spring, small screen siren-turned-big screen beauty Katherine Heigl is all smiles during a photocall in Berlin to promote her latest smash hit comedy, 27 Dresses, on Wednesday.

After showing off a shocking short bob during the Madrid premiere earlier this week, the Grey’s Anatomy stunner kept her newly cropped coif basic with a simple blow out to highlight her new layers.

Though hubby Josh Kelley remained Stateside, distance is only making their hearts grow fonder. At his recent album party at Chicago’s Rockit Bar and Grill, the guitar-playing crooner told People mag: “It’s feels unbelievable to be married. I thought that [being married] wasn’t that different [from dating], but actually it is so different. My mentality changed from being a boyish man to a man’s man.”
