Katherine Heigl's Vanity Fair Interview

So Katherine Heigl's got an interview coming out in Vanity Fair's new issue that I found a little perplexing...and I wanted to get other people's perspective. The articles not available in full yet, but some portions of the article have leaked out and Vanity Fair has a slideshow of some amazing pictures from the accompanying photo shoot.

So here's one thing that bothered me:

When Heigl’s Grey’s Anatomy character, Izzie Stevens, began an affair with her married best friend on the show this season, Heigl became concerned about her character’s seemingly uncharacteristic actions. “That was kind of a big change for Izzie, wasn’t it, after she was so up on her moral high ground. They really hurt somebody, and they didn’t seem to be taking a lot of responsibility for it. I have a really hard time with that kind of thing. I’m maybe a little too black-and-white about it. I don’t really know Izzie very well right now. She’s changed a lot. I’m trying to figure her out and keep her real."

Heigl is well aware of the commercial considerations that often drive such decisions. "It was a ratings ploy," she tells Bennetts. "It was absolutely something that shocked people; it wasn’t predictable, and people didn’t see it coming. It’s our fourth season; there’s not a lot of spontaneity left. And business is business; I understand that, but I want there to be some cooperation between the business end and the creative end, so there’s some way of keeping it real."

Is that supposed to be endearing?

According to the NYP, in the same Vanity Fair interview, Heigl comments on her role in Knocked Up.

Grey's Anatomy" doc Katherine Heigl had a huge hit with the movie "Knocked Up," but the Emmy-winning actress now knocks the movie as "a little sexist," Vanity Fair reports.

"It paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys," she says. "It was hard for me to love the movie."

Am I expecting too much from actresses--particularly ones like Heigl who I'd expect to have a streak of feminism somewhere--that they'd speak out on these things before they go out for mass consumption, rather than doing some psedu-disenguous mea culpa later? I've never been an Izzie fan...so am I being to hard on Heigl?
