Sticking to Scrubs
Following a frustrating first-half of the season (which found Izzie having an affair with her dead fiancé), Grey's Anatomy fans rally around Heigl's performance as a cancer-stricken Izzie. Addressing reports that Izzie will die because she has intentions of ditching Grey’s for her film career, Heigl denies the claims and calls the Grey's set "one of my favorite places to be."
Rom-Com Queen
Heigl returns to movie romance in The Ugly Truth as an uptight TV producer who gets lessons in love from her chauvinistic coworker (played by 300 stud Gerard Butler). The Scottish actor sings her praises, calling Heigl "the sexiest, smartest, sassiest, funniest actress out there."
Heigl's Baby Love
Heigl announces that she and Kelley are adopting a baby girl named Naleigh from Korea. "I wanted to tell everybody so you don't think I stole a Korean baby," she jokes on Ellen of Naleigh – a nickname for Nancy Leigh, named after Heigl's mother Nancy and sister Margaret Leigh.
