Katherine Heigl reveals Isaiah Washington apologized to her
Apparently Isaiah apologized to Katherine Heigl on the set of Grey’s Anatomy after she denounced in the media his use of a homophobic slur against fellow co-star T.R. Knight.
“Isaiah thanked me, which I didn’t understand,” the 28-year-old actress tells Entertainment Weekly. “He was almost grateful. I don’t know Isaiah well, but he takes his work seriously and he loves his character.”
Washington came under fire for using the epithet at the Golden Globe Awards in January while denying he’d used it previously against fellow “Grey’s” star T.R. Knight. Heigl, who plays outspoken Dr. Izzie Stevens on the hit ABC medical drama, says she was “furious and frustrated” at the time, so she leapt to Knight’s defense.
“He made a big mistake, and it was thoughtless and boneheaded, and I think he’s very sorry and embarrassed,” she says in the magazine’s Friday issue. “This is something that will have changed the scope of his life.”
I wish they would just fire him once and for all.
