Yes, Katherine Heigl is leaving Grey’s Anatomy but, unfortunately, it is only temporary. On the fifth episode (‘Invasion’) of the sixth season, Izzie Stevens gets too involved with a patient, it clouded her judgment and she ends up making what could be a fatal mistake which leads to her being cut from the staff of Seattle Grace.

Izzy and Mercy West-er Charles (Robert Baker) get paired up on Sarah Freemont, a young woman in desperate need of a kidney transplant and down to her last access point for dialysis. They seem to be getting along swimmingly until Izzy overhears him bragging to his Mercy West friends about her being his “surgical bitch.” In the midst of their troubles, Izzy almost kills patient Sarah by ordering a bum procedure and causing her to code. Bailey manages to save the patient, but because of her troubles she will lose her chance at the transplant kidney she’s been waiting three years for.

Chief has to get down the the nasty business of firing people, and HR insists he use a specific speech because the last person he fired (the pregnant intern) is suing for wrongful termination. Who’s getting the ax? None other than Izzy, who gets chopped for mishandling the kidney transplant patient. Considering she got a total free pass on the LVAD debacle, I can see why she’s surprised. Still, she got a total free pass on the LVAD debacle, so it makes sense for her to be “on notice” for her next big mistake. She takes it extremely hard, to the point where she skips town and leaves Alex via a note taped to his locker. I suppose if Meredith and Derek can get married via post it Alex and Izzy can get divorced via a Dear John letter. I do feel horribly sorry for Alex, and Justin Chambers played his reveal scene superbly.

Apparently, this storyline was made especially for Katherine who will be busy filming a new movie project and will return to Grey’s Anatomy in about a month. That is how Diva Katherine rolls! In fact, she is the second highest paid women on primetime (Forbes Top 10), so Katherine can do whatever she wants!

Grey’s Anatomy Season 6 Episode 5 Sneak Peek Video

Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl, who just recently announced she and her husband Josh Kelley would be adopting a baby girl with special needs from Korea on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, has released her first family photo with the new baby.

“They sent us a picture. They told us that it was a little girl and who she was and the information about six months ago,” she revealed on the Sept. 11 Ellen DeGeneres show. “It was meant to take a long time. This sort of thing can take years.”

“She is a special needs baby and because of that it [adoption process] all moved so much faster,” she told Ellen. “They wanted to get her to us as quickly as possible.”

10 month-old baby Nancy Leigh aka Naleigh was named after Katherine’s mother and sister, who was also adopted as a little girl from Korea. “I am naming her after my mother and sister — Nancy, Leigh. So we call her Naleigh,” Katherine said.

Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl glams it up with a Roberto Cavalli gown and looks beautiful for the cover of the latest issue of InStyle Magazine (August 2009).

The 30 year-old actress, who stars with Gerard Butler in a new romantic comedy “The Ugly Truth”, opens up about family tragedy, meeting her husband Josh Kelley and the controversial Emmy snub. Here are some highlights:

On meeting her husband, singer-songwriter Josh Kelley: “I was fed up with trying to be somebody else and got really lucky and met a great guy who loved me for me. It’s hard—I think women have to struggle to define themselves, to find what they want. I keep telling my friends, seriously, write down what you want and make it specific. Like, I’m talking, do you want a beach house in Venice? Be specific and be creative and define not only what you want in your career but what you want in your personal life.”

On family tragedies—her brother’s death in 1986 and her mother’s battle with breast cancer: “Here’s the deal: This is what my family and I have been through, and although we’re not perfect, we are survivors. [My siblings and I] were taught to overcome—although that’s not the right word because you don’t really overcome that kind of stuff, but you do learn to live with it and you learn to live despite it… No one in my family ever said, ‘Life’s not worth living because this happened or that happened to me.’ It’s always worth living. And living well.”

On being criticized last summer for saying the Grey’s Anatomy material she’d been given to work with wasn’t Emmy-worthy: “Now I’ve got this moniker that I’m the foot-in-the-mouth gal, and I keep thinking, In what way? Because I said something you don’t agree with? Because I said something you don’t like? I’m just telling you my opinion. I hate the idea that I can’t be honest about how I feel about things because it’s going to piss somebody off who feels differently. That seems preposterous to me.”

On “The Ugly Truth” ‘R’ ratings: “I know this is going to sound bad but I’m really glad [Ugly Truth is rated] R. I didn’t want to do another PG-13 movie. [In any real-life contentious relationship with romantic underpinnings] you’re probably going to drop the F-bomb once in a while. You’re probably going to say some things that are kind of harsh. And you’re definitely going to talk about sex. It doesn’t have to be so Snow White and Prince Charming.”

We were left with more questions than answers after a tear jerking two hour Grey’s Anatomy fifth season finale on Thursday (May 15). Just when we thought both Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl) and George O’Malley (T.R. Knight) have finally found their happy endings, everything changes and they are standing on the thin line between life and death.

Izzie’s brain rumor was removed. She survived but has short-term memory loss. Alex comes to her rescue and challenges her to hang on to her memories then she loses consciousness. While George became an Army doctor and shows up at Seattle Grace as a John Doe, who had jumped in front of a bus to save a woman’s life. That’s when Izzie and George finally meet in the elevator!!

So did Izzie and George die on Grey’s Anatomy Season Finale? Does it mean Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight are leaving Grey’s Anatomy??

Biggest cliff hanger ever!! Life vs. death! Katherine Heigl/Izzie Stevens wearing a prom dress and T.R. Knight/George O’Malley in an army uniform inside an elevator… and if you really want to know if they will survive, you just have to wait for next season!

College Candy has come up with a list of the ‘Top 5 Grey’s Anatomy Plotlines That Didn’t Make It.’ This season of the show has had some pretty far fetched episodes that has led some viewers wondering just how far the writers of the show might reach.

Rejected Grey’s Anatomy Plotlines….But Give Them Time..

1. Having a ghost friend is a great idea. It worked for Ghost Whisperer, and Jennifer Love Hewitt is nowhere near as hot as Katherine Heigl. It only makes more sense that a hot ghost with a hot star = ratings galore. I think they missed out on an even bigger opportunity: Izzy is a ghost orgy with Denny and all the patients that ever died at Seattle Grace.

2. McDreamy is just perfect in every way: he’s sexy, he’s funny, and he’s the most talented surgeon ever to grace this planet. Too good to be true, right? Exactly. We never knew anything about Derek’s life before he came to Seattle Grace…until now. Turns out Derek used to be Dayna, a talented female surgeon in New York who was getting nowhere in her career thanks to the Glass Ceiling. Dayna was sick of being picked over in favor of male surgeons, so she decided to take matters into her own hands by performing gender reassignment surgery…on herself. Yes, she’s just that good. You didn’t think a man could have hair that good, did you?

3.  TV dramas love guest stars and Heidi Montag is a media whore - a match made in heaven. Speidi heads to Seattle for another posed photo shoot when Spencer decides that Heidi’s 92 pound frame is just too large. He can’t handle the ounce of fat on her thighs, so he convinces her to get lipo. While in recovery, the hospital is bombed and Heidi is responsible to perform life-saving surgury on all of the doctors at Seattle Grace. In a bikini. Which she then turns into a music video.

The splitting off of Addison onto her own show Private Practice seems to have likely been the wrong decision to make.  She brought a lot to the dynamic on ‘Grey’s’ between her, Derek and Meredith.

“Grey’s Anatomy” star Katherine Heigl was out and about with her mother shopping in Hollywood yesterday. It’s good to see Katherine smoke free… at least she wasn’t holding her usual cigarette and from her looks I would say she is definitely trying to quit. Katherine seems to have been gaining a little weight or maybe it’s the flat shoes (matching her sunglasses!).

Actress Katherine Heigl was out to lunch with her husband Josh Kelley and others on Wednesday in Los Angeles. Heigl lit up a few cigs for cancer, during her lunch, while downing several glasses of wine to keep the ghosts of her past-Mormon faith away.

Katherine has mentioned recently about returning to her faith but it doesn’t look like that will happen today.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints doesn’t allow it’s members to drink or smoke.

Jessica Simpson is back on top of the charts.  Instead of her latest album being a bust, her bust has instead put her at #1 on the list of the ‘Best Celebrity Boobs’ list.  Papa Joe Simpson was so ecstatic at his lil’ girls latest accomplishment that he couldn’t be reached for comment.

Best Celebrity Boobs List

1. Jessica Simpson

2. Tyra Banks

3. Scarlett Johansson

4. Carmen Electra

5. Lindsay Lohan

6. Katherine Heigl

View #’s 7-10

This list is extremely debatable.  I have never noticed about 70% of this list.  Jessica probably deserves the #1 spot.  A bit surprising Pamela Anderson is not on the list, but perhaps she was not eligible after her 5th boob job.

Vote and help BS decide who is the ‘Worst Dressed Celeb of the Week‘. Will it be Katherine Heigl and her grandmother’s sweater/scarf set, Eva Longoria and her serious up top, party down low ensemble, Clay Aiken and his horrific costume from ‘Spamalot’ or Britney Spears and her thrashed hooker hose with business shirt?

Katherine Heigl is our ‘Worst Dressed Celeb of the Day‘ for dressing like her grandmother.  It is not necessary bad to have a matching sweater and scarf in your winter collection, but not while you are still in your 20’s.

I will rescind Katherine’s ‘WDCOTD‘ honor if in fact her grandmother knitted the set for her.  Then she deserves points for being courteous to her grandma’s feelings.

Heigl is most famous for her supporting role on Grey’s Anatomy.

Grey’s Anatomy and Knocked Up actress Katherine Heigl wed singer Josh Kelley in a pre-Christmas wedding ceremony this past weekend in Park City, Utah.

The private reception was witnessed by Grey’s Anatomy costars T.R. Knight – who told PEOPLE it was “incredible and beautiful” – and Sandra Oh, as well as Private Practice star Kate Walsh and new husband Alex Young.

Taking place in a small, private tent at the Stein Eriksen Lodge, the nuptials lasted about 30 minutes in an area decked out in white flowers and white candles. A walkway from the tent to the nearby reception was lined with white candles, illuminating the fresh snow.

Congrats to Katherine and Josh on their “crapshoot”

“It’s a crapshoot. The odds are really bad, especially in this town,” the actress says. “But I have a lot of faith in Josh, and I wanted to have that one day when I stand in front of my friends and my family and honor him and how important he is in my life.”

Gotta make you feel good Josh!

Grey’s Anatomy actress Katherine Heigl goes dark for the new cover of ‘InStyle‘ magazine that is on news stands now.  Heigl is floating high after winning an Emmy award for ‘Best Supporting Actress in a Drama’.

Grey’s Anatomy actress Katherine Heigl was censored at the 59th Annual Emmy Awards as she was awarded ‘Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series’.

Heigl mouthed another expletive, which Fox unsuccessfully tried to evade with a different camera shot.

Katherine is not known for holding her tongue but she should have known all of the cameras would be on her.

Actress Katherine Heigl has set her eyes on producing films and has set up a production company in Los Angeles with her mother. Heigl is famous for her role on the hit ABC tv show Grey’s Anatomy.

Heigl and her manager and mother, Nancy Heigl, have formed a production shingle and set up an untitled action-comedy at Fox 2000 that also will serve as an acting vehicle for the actress. Spyglass also is on board to produce the project, whose plot is being kept confidential.

An Emmy nominee this year for “Grey’s Anatomy,” the younger Heigl became a bona fide film star with Universal Pictures’ “Knocked Up,” which has grossed more than $145 million domestically. But even before the film’s release in June, she had been looking to get into producing, hoping to craft a project and work with writers.

For those outside of Hollywood, a movie producer is someone with a lot of money who gets a credit at the start and end of movies they ‘produce’. They might ask for a favor from a friend or insider for their movie as well.

For example: Heigl might call up T.R. Knight and say, “Hey I really had your back during the Washington thing. I am making this horrific $12 million dollar film that will probably only ever be shown overseas. Will you please be in it? Remember I stood beside you when you came out”. You get the idea.

Who would you guess to be at the top of Maxim’s Hot 100 List?  I would put Lindsay Lohan on the list but nowhere near the top. However, Lohan garners the top spot ahead of the likes of Scarlett Johansson (#3), Jessica Alba (#2), Jessica Biel (#5) and Christina Aguilera (#4) among others.

Ashlee Simpson came in at #16 while big sis Jessica Simpson ranked #41. (Whodathunkit? Ashley is now hotter than Jessica). Ashley Olsen placed 34th, however twin sister Mary-Kate didn’t make the list. (C’mon, they’re twins LOL).

For you Grey’s Anatomy fans Katherine Heigl was ranked #14.  Finally a list without Beyonce (#13) in the top 10.  Where was Rosie?
