Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight: Not Leaving Grey's? Fri, 13-Feb-2009
Though reports are running rampant that Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight are planning to leave “Grey’s Anatomy,” the show’s creator Shonda Rhimes said it isn’t so.
While chatting with press at last night’s NAACP Image Awards, Rhimes was asked about the story and responded, “That was a very interesting rumor. And it’s not true.”
Shonda continued, "That was absolutely taken out of context (referring to a quote from James Pickens Jr). Things happen, and ... I think rumors become fact very easily. And you know I don't like to tell you what's going to happen on the show – but that is a rumor."
Pickens took it from there, telling press, "We've been living with these rumors for a long time. When the question was posed to me, I was more trying to congratulate Katie and T.R. on whatever they were going to do. But yeah, I don't have any special info about it either way."
Chandra Wilson also corroborated, "We're laughing at the rumors, as we always do. Stories come out, and [there are] these big quotes, and we go, 'But that's not exactly what I said.' So, we're busy doing our jobs, doing our work." |
