Katherine Heigl embarrassed by Ashton

Katherine Heigl felt "uncomfortable" around Ashton Kutcher because she had seen what he looks like when he orgasms.

The actress co-stars in new movie 'Killers' with Ashton and during shooting the actor gave Katherine a copy of his indie film 'Kutcher in Spread', in which he is involved in many sex scenes, leaving her feeling highly embarrassed.

She told E!: "He gave me the movie to watch. I watched it one day during lunch, but when I went back to work, I was like, 'I don't know if I could look at you right now. I know you far too intimately and I'm really uncomfortable. I've seen your O-face!' "

However, Katherine soon got over her embarrassment and loved working with the Hollywood heartthrob - who is married to Demi Moore - especially during the kissing scenes.

She said: "He is stupid hot. It's ridiculous. Even his hands are beautiful. His kissing is unbelievable. Could you imagine if he sucked? I would have slapped him."

In the romantic comedy, Katherine - who raises an adopted daughter, Naleigh, with husband Josh Kelley - and Ashton play two lovers who are hunted down by assassins and the pair get intimate in many scenes.

Katherine Heigl's awesome baby

Katherine Heigl's husband thinks their adopted baby is "awesome".

Musician Josh Kelley gushed about Nancy Leigh - a 10-month-old Korean girl with special needs he and Katherine adopted earlier this month - during a concert on Ohio on Friday night (18.09.09).

On the verge of tears, Josh shouted: "We adopted a baby from Korea, me and my girl, and she's awesome, dude! This girl is the bomb!"

Earlier in the week, Josh sung a song he wrote about the baby - nicknamed 'Naleigh' - at a performance at Miami University.

It included the lines, "Just to see you in mommy's arms is all I need."

Katherine, 30, was "thrilled" to welcome Nancy into her home, revealing she has wanted to adopt a Korean baby since she was a child.

She said: "It's been a big part of my life and my family. My sister is Korean and my parents adopted her back in the 1970s and so I just always knew that this is something I wanted to do.

"I just wanted to make sure that I was marrying a guy who understands that this was going to have to happen. Not everybody is down with that, not everybody thinks that."

Heigl says she'll stay if 'Grey's' will have her

In this May 31, 2008 file photo, actress Katherine Heigl arrives at the 7th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball in Los Angeles.

Katherine Heigl said Friday she's ready to stay with "Grey's Anatomy" and the decision rests with the show.

Attending a studio party to mark the ABC medical drama's 100th episode, Heigl said it's premature to think her days as Dr. Izzie Stevens are numbered.

"I was assuming that at one point and I got a lot of shrugged shoulders and shakes of the head, so I don't know if that's a yes or a no. No one will tell me and I don't know how this is going to go," Heigl said, noting series creator Shonda Rhimes' passion for plot secrecy.

"I don't know if I live or die. I don't know how Izzie fares," said the actress, who's played the character since the show debuted in 2005.

"I'm there" if Izzie remains part of "Grey's Anatomy," Heigl said. She called the set "one of my favorite places to be" and said her colleagues are also friends.

She and fellow cast members, including Ellen Pompeo (Dr. Meredith Grey) and Patrick Dempsey (Dr. Derek Shepherd), were on hand for the celebration that included a cake decorated with scalpels and syringes made out of icing.

Rhimes, who's also an executive producer for the show, called the milestone a "huge accomplishment" and thanked the cast and crew for their efforts.

In an interview, she dropped a tantalizing clue about the episode airing May 7.

"The only thing I'll tell you about the 100th is that it takes place on Meredith and Derek's wedding day," Rhimes said. "That's big ... and that's all I'm going to say."

On Thursday's episode, Izzie was seen surviving brain surgery. There's been speculation that Heigl wants to pursue her blossoming film career ("Knocked Up," the upcoming "The Ugly Truth") full-time, and that her character might be killed off.

Rhimes declined comment on what would happen to Heigl's character.

Last month, fellow cast member James Pickens Jr. said Heigl was leaving the show, along with T.R. Knight, both of whom declined comment at the time. Knight missed the studio party because he'd previously scheduled the day off, an ABC spokeswoman said.

On Friday, Heigl said she's comfortable balancing movies and TV by working on big-screen projects during the summer hiatus for "Grey's Anatomy."

"I'm more than happy to make that compromise. As my agent likes to say, 'High-class problems,'" Heigl said.

"I don't know if I want to continue for five years working 12 months a year, but I can take at least another year or two," she said.

Dempsey said he intends to fulfill the remaining two years on his contract with "Grey's Anatomy and "then we'll see what happens after that."

Katherine Heigl fuels Grey's Anatomy spat

Actress Katherine Heigl, a surprise Emmy winner last year for her role on hit TV drama Grey's Anatomy, has bowed out of this year's race in an apparent swipe at producers for diminishing her presence on the series.

Heigl, 29, quietly chose not to submit her name for consideration as an Emmy contender this year but explained her rather conspicuous absence from the ballot when asked by Tom O'Neil, columnist for the Los Angeles Times' showbiz awards website TheEnvelope.com.

Katherine Heigl has used the Emmy Awards to fuel a spat with Grey's Anatomy producers.

"I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination, and in an effort to maintain the integrity of the academy organisation, I withdrew my name from contention," she said in a statement posted by O'Neil.

"In addition, I did not want to potentially take away an opportunity from an actress who was given such materials."

The lengthy list of performers vying for Emmy recognition from fellow members of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences was posted in recent days. Nominations will be announced on July 17.

Heigl was the upset winner of last year's prime-time Emmy as best supporting actress in a drama for her role as Dr Izzie Stevens on the ABC hospital series, beating out two other co-stars for the award - Sandra Oh and Chandra Wilson.

It was the show's biggest Emmy triumph since the 2005 inception of the series, which helped lead the way in ABC's ratings rebound three years ago and ranks as one of the most watched dramas on US television.

But while Heigl has since emerged as Hollywood's latest "it" girl following the success of her breakout film comedy Knocked Up, her profile on Grey's Anatomy this past season has been noticeably reduced.

As noted by O'Neil, one of her more meaty story lines on the show this year involved her character saving a deer that had caused a string of automobile accidents.

"What she deserved after winning the Emmy was a heightened profile on the show, not a reduced one," he said, adding that she appeared to be "logging an internal protest" with the show's producers.

While not uncommon for Emmy veterans to withdraw from contention in later years - as Candice Bergen and Bill Cosby have in the past - they typically have done so after repeated wins to give others a shot.

A spokeswoman for ABC, a unit of the Walt Disney Co, said the network has no comment on Heigl's move.

Heigl's last big-screen role was in the romantic comedy 27 Dresses, which released in January.

Daily Variety reported this week that she has just clinched a deal to star in and produce a film adaptation of Escape, the best-selling memoir of Carolyn Jessop, whose testimony helped convict polygamist sect leader Warren Jeffs.
