    “19 seasons, I’m surprised there wasn’t a giraffe” girl was so done with greys 😂

    "It's not a career worth having if you're bending all the time." I love Katherine Heigl. Such an inspiring woman.
  • @avantedestinos
    As someone who grew up with Grey's and watched it from season one, I will never forget the emotional depth Heigl gave to Izzie. I will also never forget how bad she had it... She was canceled before cancel culture ever existed and just labeled a "bitch" for simply being a strong woman. Thank God she seemed to have turned things around and here's to hoping she will continue to deliver her unparalleled acting skills for many years to come.
  • I imagine it must be difficult for Katherine to listen to Ellen being so vocal and bold about certain things when it’s the very reason why she basically lost her career in the first place. A lot of people would’ve never made the reconnection and held resentment and anger etc. it’s beautiful to see these two women speaking so candidly about such a formative shared experience!
  • @Liazyy
    Such a genuine and honest conversation. I love how Ellen and Katherine are unapologetically themselves.
  • @grackla1384
    Ellen says such a beautiful and true thing at 49:15 “Nobody likes a confident woman. Theyd rather you be a woman looking for your confidence than you actually be a confident woman. Because that makes them nervous.” PREACH!!🙌🏻🙌🏻
  • @user-vj4sy2op6z
    Is it just me or Katherine DESERVES her own Late Night show? I will totally watch it <3
  • @damn0705
    Katherine is actually a huge inspiration for women in any bussiness and was ahead of her time standing up for herself and in some ways demanding respect. She’s such a brilliant actress, she deserved more. How many men spoke against bad scripts, directors, writers or whatever and were cancelled after that for it? Everybody likes tough men, but when a woman is “tough” she’s overbearing and difficult. Bullshit
  • @NIVEA815
    20 years of Grey's Anatomy and Katherine Heigl is still the only actress who won an Emmy from the show. I know that must really piss off the people who fired her.
  • FACT: Majority of Grey’s iconic scenes involve Izzie and that giant pink ball gown. It was that Season 2 Finale with Izzie, Denny and Alex (with Chasing Cars song) that sealed the deal for Grey’s Anatomy and promoted it from popular to phenomenal. Also, don’t forget the Season 5 elevator scene with Izzie and George wearing his army uniform. Heigl is one hellava actress.

    I've always been in the "Katherine Heigl did nothing wrong" camp; I'm not a stan or anything but I've defended her a lot to friends and am always happy to see her thriving. Ellen is right that she was ahead of the curve - I think people would be a lot more receptive to what she had to say if that period of her life were happening today.
  • @snbyrk459
    Katherine Heigl faced so much crap from people back in the day, was called a bitch and a diva for just wanting to be respected in her work environment. Love that she didn't give up on herself.
  • @Kekerussles
    I wish Sandra Oh was also featured on this interview, it would have been awesome to see all the 3 women who started the show together in conversation. It is an amazing exchange though, I loved every bit of it.
  • Awe, it’s so beautiful to see Ellen protecting Katherine so confidently. I hated the way media portrayed her. It’s such a beautiful story they’ve shared. I’m thankful we got to watch them reconnect. It’s emotional for some reason.
  • @normantwoey3293
    Katherine Heigl was absolutely incredible in “Firefly Lane.” That show was perfection from Episode 1 through to the end.
  • @JesseNunez25
    katherine Heigl is an icon, she deserves a second chance. Ellen thank you for recognizing that.
  • So many actor's would've backtracked their statements if faced with the same amount of criticism Katherine received. Even after 15+ years and essentially being blacklisted from the industry, she's remained unapologetic. She's truly a pioneer for demanding a higher standard for women in the workplace, especially when voicing adverse opinions.

    Omg dying over the fan story… “do you know Izzy? Are you her mom?” “How old are you?” “I’m 17!!” “Goooooo away” lmao 🤣
  • @Rifs123
    Katherine deserves an Emmy for her performance in Firefly Lane!
