Katherine Heigl was born on November 24, 1978 in Washington. He is of German ancestry. As a child, she experienced a great tragedy when her older brother was thrown from the car by her friends and died as a result of his injuries. After this event, her parents embraced the faith of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons).
The actress’s career began with child modeling. It was her aunt who sent pictures of a beautiful girl to a modeling agency. After a few weeks, Katherine’s parents signed a modeling contract. Then the girl began to study acting and made her film debut in That Night (1992). Later, there were the King of the Hill and Tata and a teenager . For the latter, she was nominated for the Young Artist Awards.
Saturn Awards and Teen Choice Awards were at hand. She was nominated for these awards for the famous series Roswell: In Mystery , in which she appeared in the years 1999–2002. Heigl played one of the lead roles, Isabel. The series is about several aliens who crashed near the town of Roswell. The production is based on books by Melinda Metz, and these on rumors about the alleged crash of a UFO ship in this place. A beautiful leading song entitled Here with me was recorded by Dido.
Heigl appeared, among others in such films as the horror films The Bride of Chucky, Valentine’s Day, Eternal Evil, Descentdant (based on EA Poe’s short story), comedy horror films Bug Buster and Home Sweet Hell , or the movie of magic and the sword Prince Brave . Early in her career, she also played the girl who magically swaps bodies with her sister (Disney’s Falling Star ).
In 2004, Heigl starred in Zyzzyx Road , considered the lowest-grossing film of all time. In his first week of screening in theaters, he made $ 30. It was shown only in one cinema in the United States. It should be added, however, that it was a deliberate procedure due to the regulations. The director wanted to release the film overseas first, not domestically, but he couldn’t, so he came up with a “smart” way. Thanks to this, the film gained dubious fame …
The next production with the actress was The Surgeons (2005-10). She played the role of medical intern Dr. Isobel “Izzie” Stevens, and received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress and an Emmy for her performance.
Heigl is also an actress often appearing in romantic comedies, such as 27 Dresses or Wpadka . In the 2000s, she was ranked high in rankings such as “100 Sexiest Women”.
Katherine Heigl married musician Joshua Kelley, and they adopted two girls, including one from South Korea. In 2016, the couple welcomed the world’s first biological child – a son named Joshua Bishop.
And what does one of the most beautiful women say about herself?
I am the most uncoordinated, clumsy person. I always had bruises, I always tripped and fell over.
I haven’t been in rehab, I’m not doing anything eccentric – I’m really boring.
I am never satisfied with my appearance.
Viewers adore Katherine for her charm and grace. I wonder what the actress will surprise us with in the coming years? I think she would look great in a superhero costume …
