Katherine & TR Getting Back In The Scrubs

Molly — Sun, 22 Jul 2007 09:09:56 -0700

Katherine Heigl rocked her iPhone back on the set of Grey's Anatomy with her BFF TR Knight. While it's a little bit of a spoiler to see TR back in those baby blue scrubs, there was really never a question that he would be back this season -- we're just not sure if he is at Seattle Grace repeating his intern year or elsewhere. As for these two, the on-screen maybe lovers and off-screen best friends must be overjoyed to share their Emmy Nomination Happiness. Now, what to do with their plotline romance...thankfully it might be over before it even began.

Isaiah Apologizes - Again

PopSugar — Fri, 19 Jan 2007 00:26:35 -0800

The controversy surrounding Isaiah Washington's use of a gay slur came to a head this afternoon when ABC gave a statement saying they were "dismayed" with Isaiah's "unacceptable" behavior. GLAAD also demanded a public apology from the actor and, as of late yesterday, they got it. Isaiah issued the following statement:

"I apologize to T.R., my colleagues, the fans of the show and especially the lesbian and gay community for using a word that is unacceptable in any context or circumstance. By repeating the word Monday night, I marred what should have been a perfect night for everyone who works on 'Grey's Anatomy.' I can neither defend nor explain my behavior. I can also no longer deny to myself that there are issues I obviously need to examine within my own soul, and I've asked for help.

I know the power of words, especially those that demean. I realize that by using one filled with disrespect I have hurt more than T.R. and my colleagues. With one word, I've hurt everyone who has struggled for the respect so many of us take for granted. I welcome the chance to meet with leaders of the gay and lesbian community to apologize in person and to talk about what I can do to heal the wounds I've opened.

T.R.'s courage throughout this entire episode speaks to his tremendous character. I hold his talent, and T.R. as a person, in high esteem. I know a mere apology will not end this, and I intend to let my future actions prove my sincerity."

This seems too little too late after Isaiah lied on national television. Plus he's apologized for his comments before but then went back and denied them. He's obviously just trying to appease his bosses and keep his job. Apology or not, we'll stick with our Over/Under bet on Dr Preston Burke being written out of Grey's within ten episodes.

Grey's Feud is Back and Bigger than Ever

Molly — Wed, 17 Jan 2007 15:16:20 -0800

What would a week be without a celebrity feud? (Answer: devoid of meaning.) And with Donald and Rosie finally shutting up, there's room for a new publicly carried-out battle. Or, as the case may be, an old one resurfaced--the Grey's Anatomy On-Set Fight.

This afternoon, T.R. went on the Ellen Degeneres show to talk openly for the first time about the whole situation. In the video above he is sweet and humble and obviously uncomfortable with having to talk about everything in public.

The fight, which originally took place back in October, resurfaced at the Golden Globes when Isaiah Washington denied calling T.R. Knight the homophobic name that got him in trouble in the first place (despite his having already publicly apologized for the indecent). Katherine Heigl quickly jumped to her friend T.R.'s defense, as Us Weekly reports:

"I have no idea what it was, I just find it hurtful...I just feel
like this is something that should be very much in house we need to deal with and it's among us and the cast and crew and among Shonda (Rhimes, show creator) and the producers… I don't think he (Washington) means it the way he comes off... But, T.R. is my best friend. I will throw down for that kid. I will beat you up. I will use every ounce of energy I have to take you down if you hurt his feelings."

In case you missed any of the Golden Globes Grey's drama, after the jump is a video montage of all the action. Just read more

Over/Under on how many episodes before Dr. Preston "I AM A WIDELY RENOWNED CARDIOTHORASSIC SURGEON" Burke is written off the show? Ten episodes?

Are You Surprised by T.R. Knight's Comments About Grey's?

PopSugar — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 12:00:23 -0700

T.R. Knight landed on the cover of Entertainment Weekly, finally opening up about his big decision to leave Grey's Anatomy. He essentially chalks up the move to his disagreements with the show's executive producer, Shonda Rimes, and the fallout from Isaiah Washington's profanity-laced tirade in 2006. He said:

On his frustration: "My five-year experience proved to me that I could not trust any answer that was given [about George]."
On coming out publicly after Isaiah's incident: "I think she was concerned about having my statement come out so close to the [initial] event."
On leaving his $14 million contract: "From an outsider's perspective, I get the [impression that] 'He’s just a spoiled actor…he doesn’t know how good he has it. There are a lot of people who would like to be in my position. But in the end, I need to be fulfilled in my work."

It's interesting to finally hear the backstory after years of rumors about the show and its cast, so tell us - are you surprised T.R. Knight is finally making a comment?

Katherine Heigl has had a full schedule promoting The Ugly Truth in NYC.

Katherine and Gerard Have a Good Time With The Ugly Truth

PopSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 10:00:24 -0700

Gerard Butler got silly with a giggling Katherine Heigl at the LA premiere of The Ugly Truth last night. Katherine showed off her new darker 'do to her BFF T.R. Knight and a few other costars from Grey's Anatomy. She didn't talk about the news of the Emmy nominations. After her year of ghost sex and brain tumors, it may have been surprising to not see her name on the list. Gerard was taking a break from work on The Bounty with Jennifer Aniston, and he opened up on the carpet about how they laugh about all the dating rumors. He had nothing but praise for Jen, as he's apparently quite friendly with many of his leading ladies.

Knight is apparently off the show and possibly heading to Broadway. Katherine Heigl's fate is still up in the air, but Justin can enjoy his getaway with Alex's spot at Seattle Grace still secured.
