Skank Cancer Wants an Emmy

heigl_0518.jpgWell, well, well. Look who's suddenly not "too good" to be nominated for an Emmy. Katherine Heigl, who famously threw the writers of "Grey's Anatomy" under a bus last year, has decided not to withdraw her name from Emmy consideration this year. Well whoopdie fuck.

Natch, cynics will snark that the 2007 Best Supporting Actress winner is back in the race because of the tensions that allegedly sprung up between her and series creator Shonda Rhimes after she took herself out of the running. (The movie starlet, you'll recall, said at the time that she didn't have material with which she could compete.) But I think -- and I think you'll agree -- it's likelier that even she knows that, whether viewers loved or loathed the Izzie's-got-a-brain-tumor story, she played the frak out of it. (Source)

You know what I hope more than anything in the whole world? That she won't even be nominated at all. How awesome would that be? Then she'll have died from fictional imaginary brain cancer for nothing. At least if she would have died from fictional imaginary brain cancer on like "House," House might have learned a valuable lesson on how to treat dying people or something. But nope, nothing. No Emmy and no lesson. *crosses fingers*

Meh, she'll get the nomination.

The Emmys, like the Oscars, looooove a cancer story.

My hope this entire time has been that everyone else on the show would get nominated just be REACTING to her cancer, while she was left out in the cold....and dead.
