Katherine Heigl Addresses Rumors She Turned Down an Emmy Nomination While on 'Grey's Anatomy'

Katherine Heigl opened up about it with Shannen Doherty on her 'Let's Be Clear' podcast.

Katherine Heigl is setting the record straight about her supposedly turning down an Emmy nomination for her work as Dr. Isobel "Izzie" Stevens on Grey's Anatomy. During an appearance on the Let's Be Clear podcast, host Shannen Doherty was running down Heigl's impressive resume and applauding her "perseverance as a woman, as an actor," before adding she doesn't know anyone in Hollywood who has ever turned down an Emmy nomination. In 2010, tensions between her and creator Shonda Rhimes were running high to the point that, in March of that year, they reached an agreement to immediately release her from her contract.
