Katherine Heigl

Katherine Heigl is an American actress who rose to fame on the medical drama *Grey's Anatomy* and in romantic comedies like *Knocked Up* and *27 Dresses*.

Her name became associated with professional difficulty after public complaints about her projects—she withdrew from Emmy consideration and criticized her own films—earning a reputation for being difficult to work with that overshadowed her career for years.
