is the price right? - up for sale, just can't be bought
Looks like two job losses for Katherine Heigl. No sooner was she booted from Grey's Anatomy - allegedly - but now she's lost a part in an upcoming all star romantic comedy ensemble piece called Valentine's Day. The cast includes Julia Roberts, Anne Hatahway, Jennifer Garner, Shirley McLaine, Bradley Cooper, and Ashton Kutcher. Basically everyone but Catherine Zeta Jones. Working along side these big stars would be great for her career. It would even be better if she were acknowledged as their equal by being paid a comparable salary. So she told execs that she wouldn't do it for less than 3 mill. They told her that they were sorry to hear that she wasn't gonna do it. That makes it kinda difficult for her to go crawling back.
celebutarded?
Now some people are wondering what's gotten into Heigl: did she go retarded, is she delusional, did she take something that she shouldn't have? Others note that these are the typical dive antics of a humourless uptight shrew. While some are wondering how long she can last at this rate, others are wondering why she's still around. I prefer to give her the benefit of the doubt. Even though she acts crazy she's been continuously employed - unlike Isaiah Washington who passed his anger management course and then faded into obscurity and homelessness.
Team work only gets you so far
Hollywood is well known for rewarding difficult and even counter productive behaviour. The wheel is crooked and maybe Heigl has figured that much out. If there's madness to Hollywood's method, then maybe there's a method to Heigl's madness? Besides, with the exception of Anne Hathaway, this flick is packed with has beens and also rans. not one of them could carry a flick on their own - that's why they've been bunched together in a single project. It's as if Hollywood were trying to make an A team out of a bunch of B players. So Heigl might be better off passing on this one.
