Such a self destructive woman


I remember when all of Hollywood was predicting she would be the next Julia Roberts or Sandra Bullock. Her talent and beauty is undeniable.... But wow are the stories about her LEGENDARY and uncomfortably true. We all hear of Diva demands from J.Lo and Mariah but they have enough people who step up to refute them, and love working with them to maintain a career. Katherine has made just about everyone she's ever worked with despise her!

I can't imagine being granted the unique opportunity in life to have a lush job and lifestyle as had been laid at her feet, and she literally but the hand (and head off) that fed her. It was like she deliberately took a match to everything in her life of privilege and lit it up.

Now she is having to turn to indiegogo and her fans to help fund her own film projects because no one wants the trouble of dealing with her. It's been said her sense of entitlement far surpassed reasonable expectation. And even when Hollywood professionals began distancing themselves from her... She continued to spit in the faces of the few remaining who would give her a chance at redemption. How sadly deluded she must be, not to expect that there would be a dozen starlets in line behind her that would be grateful for the job, the opportunity, the attention and the lifestyle it afforded.

She may try a comeback in the future, but unlike she has a serious change of heart and attitude adjustment, every brick she lays on the road will inevitably sink into the sand, weighted by her self destructive behavior.

What are you talking about ? Just one person, Shonda Rhimes talk *beep* about her and we all know why, every single co-star talk about her in good way. I personaly watched and read about this. She is temperament girl and she doesn't afraid speak her mind, even sometimes too much, but unproffesional and DIVA roumours are just that ROMOURS. Media is a bitch

Even if that's true, everything she has done besides Knocked Up is total garbage. Everything she touches turns to trash.

WoW! Where have you been? Katherine has left burned bridges on almost every project she has worked on with fellow professionals. Yes, first with SHonda Rhimes, and then with Judd Apatow and Seth Rogan after she slammed the very film she starred in for them... http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv-movies/taste-medicine-seth-rogen-judd-apatow-slam-ugly-truth-star-katherine-heigl-article-1.394502

Barry Josepheson, producer on the film "Life As We Know It" highlighted how difficult she can be in an interview with the New York Times, claiming he Mother will even jump on people's cases if things don't go Katherine's way. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/03/movies/03heigl.html?_r=0

She got axed from the film Valentine's Day because she made huge salary demands despite the ensemble (And really BIG stars like Julia Roberts accepting scale!)

She told Vanity Fair that her Mother liked to scare executives and be forceful quoted as saying "This is a fear-dominated industry, and my mother refuses to be intimidated by that. This is all a game of chicken and my mother is really good at chicken."

Her mother, Nancy Heigl demanded a role as Executive Producer on the failed show "State Of Affairs." Katherine and Nancy are notorious for demanding lush life perks, one article is quoted as saying;

“She can cost you time every single day of shooting. Wardrobe issues, not getting out of the trailer, questioning the script every single day. Even getting her deal closed at Warners was hard. She hit that point of ‘no.’ “What do you think?

That same source also had a few words to say about Heigl’s momager Nancy:What do you think?

“I have never experienced anything like Nancy Heigl. It’s about the mouth. ‘*beep* you. You are a *beep* liar.’ … Whatever you’d say, you were an idiot. The call would be, ‘This is the worst craft service we’ve ever had! There’s nothing to eat! This is the worst wardrobe!’ You knew that every day, you were going to get slammed. The frustrating part is [Heigl] is incredibly talented and smart.”What do you think?

Somebody else who worked on 27 Dresses with Heigl said that she was fine during filming, but became a rusty nail in everyone’s piss hole when they went overseas to promote the movie:What do you think?

“There were movie-star demands — big rooms, the mother there, all the stuff. ‘We need the presidential suite at The Bristol!’ It was just a sense of entitlement. The biggest stars don’t do that kind of thing.”

There are just volumes of stories surround Heigl and her Diva-like behavior. https://itsjustaboutnick.wordpress.com/2014/06/02/10-ways-katherine-heigl-destroyed-her-own-career/

Karma is a bitch.

I don't understand what the winge is here. The OP is all conjecture. The link and examples listed above don't differ her from any other Talent in that business. Presidential suites and leaving a show is nothing new. Depending on what you hear a lot of celebrities have made similar choices.

Don't judge people on what you hear only. The people reporting these events don't like her. And are quoting someone to paint them in a bad light.

Silver Lining and family are coming out with a new one with Rosario Dawson. So even on her low moments she manages to rise!

Did y'all know that it's possible for one person to have more than one IMDb account? That way, you can back up your own comment if others disagree. I'm just saying.

I wonder if the haters are part of some strange cult? I have never witnessed so much hate for anyone person. I think it's all PR by Shonda's people. In the meantime to get so much joy from so much hate is just sick. These people really need help.

reply

No her haters are just people that hate a stupid bitch! she is the maker of her own downfall.
