Katherine Heigl

My mother is a great source of advice and wisdom and consolation for me.

I'd be a terrible secret agent. I can't keep a secret and I'm not sneaky.

I pride myself on being kind.

For the theatre one needs long arms; it is better to have them too long than too short. An artiste with short arms can never, never make a fine gesture.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

I generally don't follow domestic news that much aside from how it relates to the stories I'm covering abroad, like what Americans think of the War in Afghanistan.
