The Kate News Thread # 2 - Because we can´t help but being nosy

Welcome to the Kate Walsh News Thread

continue to post the news here

Latest News

Quote:
Kate Walsh, otherwise known as Dr. Addison Montgomery-Shepherd on the hit ABC show Grey's Anatomy, has started a new baby name craze. Well, officially the character she portrays has started the frenzy. It seems many parents are opting for the once lesser known name Addison to give to their little girls.

Since 2005, the name Addison has jumped fifty-seven places to capture the number twenty-six spot in 2006. Baby name websites predict that Addison will be in the top ten lists of 2007. Once thought of as a boy's name, in recent years the trend has shifted towards being female. The number of males using the name has stayed about even throughout the past century and has not made the top 100 list of popular boy names.

What has caused this sudden shift of the name meaning "son of Adam?" Kate Walsh glided onto the set of Grey's Anatomy as Dr. McDreamy's wife, and has since stolen the show. It has just been announced that ABC is considering creating a spin-off of the highly rated show, starring Kate Walsh as the character she plays on Grey's Anatomy. Her beauty, poise under pressure, and intelligence are no doubt giving new meaning to the name Addison. These are attributes any parent would like to consider for their precious little daughter, causing the name to skyrocket in recent newborns.

Once you delve deeper into Kate Walsh's character, you'll find a strong woman who fought hard for her husband after she betrayed him. Somehow she still managed her composure enough not to entangle herself in a catfight with Meredith, who had become Dr. McDreamy's girlfriend. She is also one of the most sought after OB surgeons in the country on the show. Let's face it, isn't that a parent's dream? That their baby girl will grow up to be a highly regarded woman and doctor?

In baby name forums, the reactions are quite mixed when it comes to naming a girl Addison. Some are upset because they claim the name is meant for a boy, while others say they could never name their child after a disease. Another complaint is that the name sounds too much like Madison, which holds the current number two spot in rankings. Parents that agree with the name write that it reminds them of Kate Walsh's character and that it flows nicely with their surname.

Though most parents are not assuming their daughter will become the next Dr. Addison Montgomery-Shepherd, subconsciously the name brings about feelings of femininity combined with power. Without Kate Walsh portraying this character, the baby name Addison would never have jumped so high and so fast in the rankings.

Katherine Heigl's Costars Offer Praise
MONDAY MARCH 05, 2007 01:00 PM EST
By Nicholas White

A week after Katherine Heigl slammed her employers over issues surrounding her stalled contract renegotiations, her Grey's Anatomy costars are saying they enjoy working with the actress.

"She's a super-talented girl," Kate Walsh told PEOPLE on Sunday at the National Association of Black Female Executives in Music and Entertainment Dreamgirls luncheon in Beverly Hills. "Everyone's just working hard."

As for contract renegotiations Walsh, whose character Addison Shepard is the subject of a possible Grey's spinoff, said, " I literally just worked with Katherine the other night. We just go to work. I don't know – I don't really get into all the stuff. Everybody is doing their own thing with negotiations."

One of Heigl's other costars, Sara Ramirez, says of the actress who plays Izzie Stevens on the hit ABC show, "She's lovely....Everybody's very professional – not just Katherine – but everybody else too."

Added Ramirez, "At the end of the day, we all have to be grateful for our jobs. We're working actors, and not only that, we're on a hit show."

Last week, Heigl's contract negations became public, and she eventually issued a statement criticizing ABC and Touchstone, saying she was "embarrassed" and had been treated with disrespect.

"I am embarrassed that this has become a public matter and disappointed that Touchstone felt it necessary to divulge private employment information," Heigl said in the statement. "I had hoped I would be able to deal with this issue confidentially with my bosses. I dropped out of the renegotiation simply because I wanted to treat myself with the respect I was not getting from them."

Heigl, according to a statement ABC released, is contractually obligated to remain on the highly rated TV show for "several years," and is "an integral part of Grey's Anatomy and its success."

Grey's creator Shonda Rhimes, who was honored at Sunday's NABFEME luncheon, had no comment.

Sara's comments sound like mine... They should all be very grateful they are not only working, but are on a hit show!

Open House with Moore, Kutcher and Walsh

I don't know about you, but I love getting a peek inside celebrity homes. So, I was pretty pleased the other day when I picked up the latest issues of Architectural Digest and O at Home.

Architectural Digest has a feature on Demi Moore's secluded abode in Beverly Hills. When she first bought the 1950s house it wasn't big enough for her, her three daughters with Bruce Willis and her then-boyfriend Ashton Kutcher. But Moore loved the place so much she solved the problem by building an addition with two bedrooms, two baths and a children's den.

Moore and Kutcher were married in the house a few weeks after moving in. "It's a shared creation," Moore tells the mag. "And we both have such a love for it. It's a reflection of our life together."

And their mutual love of sports, too. One wall in their den is covered with Kutcher's football memorabilia, including a seat from Soldier Field, home of his beloved Chicago Bears.
On their first date, Moore says in AD, Kutcher asked if she watched sports. "Yeah," she said. "In what order?" he demanded. Kutcher was thrilled with her response: "Football, basketball and baseball."

For Grey's Anatomy star Kate Walsh, she almost didn't move into her home because of a boyfriend. When she bought her 1923 Mediterranean-style four-bedroom house in L.A., she did so thinking her then-beau would move in.
When they broke up, she had second thoughts about the house. Her place is very comfy-cozy, including a plush midnight blue couch in her living room, antique rugs and even a Steinway piano (her filmmaker brother, Joe, often plays during get-togethers).

"The fantasy of who I am is mid-century modern: simple, understated," she says in O at Home. "Or Zen: water pools and rocks and clay fish. But that's really not who I am. That's where I go for sushi."

And she stays local for decorating. Furniture and accessories come from several L.A. shops and showrooms, including Bamboo Colony, H.D. Buttercup, Rug Craft Industries and J.F. Chen Antiques

Welcome a new McDreamy.

Tim Daly is set to guest star in the "enhanced" two-hour episode of ABC's "Grey's Anatomy," designed to serve as a springboard for a potential spinoff from the hit medical drama.

Paul Adelstein also has been cast as a guest star in that episode with an eye to co-star on the potential spinoff series toplined by Kate Walsh.

The two join previously cast Taye Diggs (HR 2/22).

The story line for the two-hour episode, being written by "Grey's" creator/executive producer Shonda Rhimes, is being kept under wraps, but it is understood that it will feature popular "Grey's" character Addison Montgomery-Shepherd (Walsh) on the verge of leaving Seattle Grace, a scenario that will be triggered if ABC goes with the spinoff for next season.

Details on the characters in the potential spinoff also are being kept secret, but according to the breakdown, Daly's character is described as "handsome, sincere, like a McDreamy."

It was not clear what character Adelstein will play. The breakdown also includes a female psychiatrist and a female fertility specialist.

Daly most recently toplined ABC's critically praised drama "The Nine." He is repped by UTA and manager Amy Guenther.
Can I just say that I've loved Tim Daly since Wings so I'm very happy about this news. Addison is gonna be surrounded by some HOTTIES. I forgot to add that this will be sorta like a mini reunion between the two because Tim Daly had a show on ABC called "Eyes" which was great by the way and got canceled way to early and Kate Walsh played his estranged wife or ex wife I can't remember.

OMG! Tim Daly!

they were hot together on 'Eyes'. If Tim and Taye are on board the spin off, it could mean trouble... they're both known as show killers.

OMG! Paul Adelstein rocks, I love him on Prison Break and I heard he was originally going to play Burke, when Isiah was going to be Derek.

I think Taye's only killed 2 shows, I believe, Kevin Hill and Daybreak, so I wouldn't call him a show killer yet, KH did get a full season. I don't know enough about Tim Daley to judge, but people have done worst than Taye Diggs, like Chyler Leigh from Reunion, I'm a pretty modest fan of her, and would probably be a huge fan, but she keeps killing shows, 6, the last time I counted, and I've seen her in 4 of those shows she's killed.
