Katherine Heigl had a career 20 years ago, and she blew it.
Heigl starred on TV’s “Grey’s Anatomy” and in a couple of fun movies like “Knocked Up” and “The Ugly Truth.”
But the “Grey’s” end was a debacle, and at one point Heigl was doing cat food commercials.
Years later, she has no career. So what to do? Apparently, like some stars with cold careers, Heigl has chosen MAGA and Donald Trump. She’s now taking heat for turning up at Mar-a-Lago for the annual Wine, Women & Shoes annual fundraiser.
Heigl came with her mother, and a nicely revived face. Responding to criticism she wrote in a statement: “Animals don’t vote.”
She’s wrong, of course. During his 2024 campaign Trump lied that Haitian immigrants in Ohio were eating dogs. He invented the whole thing, scared voters, and dropped it after the election was over.
“Animal activist” Heigl had nothing to say then, but when invited to Trump’s headquarters she managed to get herself and her mom on a plane to Palm Beach — no doubt underwritten.
Heigl posed for pictures with shameful Trump lackeys Lara Trump — the “singer — and Jeannine Pirro aka “Miss Box Wine.”
The event raised $5.5 million for Big Dog Ranch, the largest no-kill dog rescue in the United States. But if Heigl — who has her own animal rescue charity — didn’t want to also endorse Trump World, she could have chosen many other events and organizations.
Now Heigl jumps in with all the other Trumpist losers like Dennis Quaid and Nicki Minaj, as well as Scott Baio, Dean Cain, and many others who have no impact on the culture.
PS Not happy to see men’s fashion line Robert Graham as a step and repeat sponsor. Really, guys? I’ll be clipping out that tag from my shirts.Â
