      That’s not the same thing though. Even back then twilight was known for being goofy fandom that people didn’t take seriously.

      @@Jprager it could be argued because it still jumpstarted their careers. That they were ungrateful to criticize the series that became the reason they're so famous now. Pattinson directly calls the author of Twilight "mad" for writing a book based off her dream. Heigl criticizes the way women are portrayed and withdraws from the Emmy's because of her considering *her* performance unworthy of being submitted.

      Absolutely. It was a good movie, but it was sexist. Why was her character written so shrewish? She could have been the same type of character, but just nicer. But no, they had to write her as being kind of unreasonably angry all the time. It was not about Heigl's performance; it was the way the character was written.

    As someone who watched Knocked Up an umpteenth amount of times as a kid, she is completely right. I can’t even stomach that movie as an adult. Katherine is an incredible actress and the hollywood machine chewed her up and spit her out as soon as she wasn’t marketable for them anymore. Deplorable.

  • @shadowscribbler6100

    I crossed paths with her in person circa 2008 on the set of Grey's anatomy and she seemed really stressed out. I saw her smoking by herself in a golf cart way off to the side of the set away from everyone else. I feel like there was already a lot of friction and she was under strain. When she passed by me in the hall in costume, she had this harassed, hunted look on her face, like she'd just had a major argument with someone. I feel she was the victim of Hollywood bullying rather than inherently difficult

  • @sparkfadingspark
    @sparkfadingspark 2 месяца назад +36

    I think Katherine is simply an imperfect person like any of us. I think she probably was a little hard to work with, because I remember there were rumours about that as early in her career as Roswell (and the same could be said for most of the teens on that cast, and several of them have admitted they let the fame go to their head) but I have a feeling she is not really any worse than most actors and actresses in Hollywood. And tbh, she wasn't wrong about Knocked Up being sexist and her character being a shrew.
    Katherine's real crime is stepping on the toes of two people with more power than her IMO, as well as being a female. Men can absolutely get away with saying comments like Katherine has said and worse (more specifically white men). But also, because both Judd Apatow and Shonda Rhimes were at the peak of their careers at the time, that absolutely made things worse. If Katherine had insulted the movie/show of someone who didn't have their pull, it might have blown over a little easier. I also think to a degree, her comments were blown out of proportion - she didn't insult Knocked Up entirely, her original comment was purely about her character. And to be honest, the material she got in the third season of Grey's didn't live up to the material she had in the second season, which was the height of her story arc. 🤷🏻‍♀️
    Anyway, it's a shame she has never been able to claw back a career the way many men do in this industry all the time. For all the assholes who cry "cancel culture", Katherine is someone who absolutely suffered from it before it was a thing.

      I agree 100%. He's complaining about how she supposedly threw him under the bus, WHILE HE'S THROWING HER UNDER THE BUS. I mean, complaining that openly about a co-worker is not good, no matter what.
      And, she was absolutely correct about Knocked Up, it did portray women as being shrews and all the guys as being really cool and relatable. I enjoyed the movie but I did notice that it was sexist. Heigl was just trying to fight back against the sexism in our society, including in Hollywood. Look at what Apatow has been accused of now, and tell me he's not sexist.

Watching that Emmy speech saying, "My own Mother said I wouldn't win so I didn't prepare a speech" I mean I feel like that says a lot of how she saw herself in fame like she didn't deserve awards or praise. I'm not saying she isn't all at fault, but her manager Mom definitely played a part, if you think about it! 😢
