Katherine Heigl Named Most Desirable Woman of 2008

January 31st, 2008

In her new movie, 27 Dresses, Katherine Heigl plays a girl who’s always the bridesmaid and never the bride. But off the silver screen, the actress is not only a blushing newlywed, she also seems to have captured the hearts of American men.

 

On Thursday, the lifestyle Web site Askmen.com named Katherine Heigl the year’s most desirable woman. The site — which boasts seven million readers a month — said it polls users annually for a list of 99 women who best embody the qualities of an ideal girlfriend or wife, as judged by intelligence, humor, charisma and ambition.

 

"This year’s list really goes to show who our users relate with and find beautiful, charming and personable," Editor-in-Chief James Bassil says.

 

It’s been an amazing year for Heigl, 29. She received acclaim for her role in last year’s runaway hit Knocked Up and won a Best Supporting Actress Emmy for her work on the television series hit Grey’s Anatomy. Heigl’s personal life has also played out like a fairy tale. Her wedding earlier this month to musician Josh Kelleyfeatured exclusively on the pages of OK! — was set in a romantic Christmas-themed ceremony.

 

Those who also made the AskMen.com list was model Alessandra Ambrosio, who came in at no. 2, followed by British actress Kate Beckinsale, Eva Mendes, Jessica Alba, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Biel, Rihanna and Marisa Miller.

OK! Exclusive: Katherine Heigl Married!

December 23rd, 2007 / Author: cwillett

In a ceremony described by guests as a "winter wonderland," Grey’s Anatomy star Katherine Heigl and her musician beau, Josh Kelley, were wed Sunday afternoon in an intimate, fairy-tale ceremony at the Stein Erikson Lodge in Deer Valley, Utah. And OK! was there to bring you the exclusive details!

With tears filling the eyes of the 80 friends and family in attendance inside the white-draped tent, the 29-year-old beauty looked exquisite in her traditional white Oscar De La Renta gown, as she made her way down the aisle to a song, titled "December 23," written specifically for the ceremony by her waiting groom.

Wanting to keep things simple and elegant, the bride and groom eschewed readings and went straight to exchanging their vows, which were written by the bride and groom, and rings, which Katherine had custom designed for the blessed event.

Supporting Katherine on her most important day was her sister and maid of honor Meg and her three bridesmaids, dressed in cranberry red cocktail dresses, also by Oscar De La Renta.

Josh, who met his bride when she starred in the video for his 2005 single "Only You" was joined by four groomsmen, including Katherine’s Grey’s co-star T.R. Knight, and Josh’s younger brother Charles as best man, all dressed head-to-toe in Tommy Hilfiger.

T.R. wasn’t the only Grey’s cast member there to cheer Katherine on. Also joining their Emmy-winning co-star were Sandra Oh, Kate Walsh (whose wedding was also featured exclusively in OK!) and Justin Chambers.

Guests at the wedding were given gift baskets of Christmas cookies as they arrived at the ceremony, and then later they dined on traditional Christmas fare at the reception.

On Saturday, Katherine and her gal pals celebrated her last day of single-hood with an all-day trip to the spa, complete with gifts from Victoria’s Secret and buckets of champagne from Moet & Chandon.
