To promote their new movie Funny People, Seth Rogen and director Judd Apatow headed to the Howard Stern Show where Seth decided to dis his Knocked Up co-star Katherine Heigl for her criticizing their 2007 smash-hit movie in a Vanity Fair interview.
In Heigl's interview she says that Knocked Up "paints the women as shrews," and the men as "lovable." Something Rogen thinks is unfair, considering her new movie The Ugly Truth. He responds by saying,"that [movie] looks like it really puts women on a pedestal in a beautiful way," he joked to Stern. "I hear there's a scene where she's wearing ... underwear ... with a vibrator in it, so I'd have to see if that was uplifting for women," the actor added.
Rogen is a little pissed at Apatow too for defending and making excuses for the b**chy actress. Apatow told Stern's listeners that, "Heigl was probably doing six hours of interviews and kissing everyone's a**, and then got tired and slipped a bit." Rogen jumps in saying, "I didn't slip and I was doing f------ interviews all day too ... I didn't say s---!" Rogen exclaimed. But Apatow continued to defend the starlet, saying that she "could not have been cooler."
Rogen, however, feels better since he's not the only one on the receiving end of Heigl's remarks."I gotta say it's not like we're the only people she said some bat---- crazy things about. That's kind of her bag now."
Listen to Rogen and Apatow on the Howard Stern radio interview below - the Heigl comments begin at 7:15 on the slide.
