After leaving a hit show to focus on her burgeoning film career, Katherine Heigl is now settling into her role as a married mom. Heigl graces next month’s cover of Harper’s Bazaar, looking radiant and refined, and in a candid interview, she opens up about learning to think before she speaks, her career, marriage and motherhood.
Heigl is photographed with dogs throughout the story – she is passionate about animals and supports the Jason Debus Heigl Foundation "Hounds of Hope" which honors her late brother, rescuing dogs from high-kill shelters throughout Southern California and readying them to find loving homes.
The outspoken actress, who stars in the action comedy Killers, reveals that co-star Ashton Kutcher “looks so hot with his shirt off,” and:
On speaking her mind: “I spent so many years just saying what I felt without thinking about the ramifications, without understanding that I have this opinion but not everyone might share that opinion and now they don’t like me because of it. That was really awkward.”
On being a normal girl: “I hate it when people say this, but I’m a people pleaser,” she explains. “I was really raised with the idea that it’s important to be honest and to share your experiences, both disappointing and exhilarating. But sometimes I think the American public just wants to see my life a good fortune. They don’t want to know about the day-to-day. It ruins the fantasy. It’s lame to say that I’m a normal girl, but I think I am.”
On keeping up with the fashions of fellow celebrities’ daughters: “Dude, I try, but I’m not nailing the baby fashion. It’s intimidating. I get beautiful outfits from Gap and baby Juicy, but I’m not layering it or putting her in Prada flats. It’s really stressing me out.”
