An actor that doesn’t want an award???
Shocking!!!
The LA Times says that when Grey’s Anatomy‘s Katherine Heigl was asked why her name is not on the TV academy’s list of Emmy contenders, she issued this statement:
I am truly grateful for the honor that the Academy bestowed upon me last year. 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. In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials.
Some have said that Heigl’s right on — her Grey’s material did suck this year.
We don’t watch the show. We wanna know…is she right and was this an ‘honorable’ thing for her to do cuz it leaves the field open to more ‘deserving’ actresses?
But, if she did have shitty material, was it right for her to call out the writers and show suits like she did?
Another theory is that she just forgot to submit her name for Emmy contention and she didn’t want to admit it.
Does she think she’s above the Emmys????
What do U think?
