During a trip to the grocery store, Grey's Anatomy star Katherine Heigl enlisted the help of a majority of Gelson's bagger department to load her groceries into her car, leaving the supermarket's customers to their own bagging devices. According to one of the baggers, Heigl was the first person to take up her usually sarcastic offer to help with taking bags to their car. Little did the bagger know that Heigl had over three shopping carts full of stuff and would require assistance from another bagger, leaving the supermarket without help during prime weekend shopping hours. Many angry customers were quick to label Heigl as a bagger hog and said that there's an unwritten rule where the only people who are allowed to have bagger assistance are old people.

And in the ultimate sign of Fuck-You-World-I'm-A-Bitch, has her groceries sacked in both paper AND plastic.

I truly love the sweater and flip flops look. Best of both worlds. Ugh.

Has anyone thought about how hard it must be to not have Joshua there in her time of need - when she needs him most - hauling groceries that she asked to be bagged in both plastic AND paper for safety's sake - out to her car? No?! I thought not.

Three carts - WTF, is she buying for an army?

Bagger hog...or bagger hag, whichever.

The stalkarazzi in Silver Lake? Chingado! The people at that Gelsons are super NICE! More than a few times they have let me slide when I didn't have enough cash to cover the groceries! I LOVE THEM!! Oh yeah and Kat is an excellent tipper! Very generous! HATERS!

I gotta side with Izzie on this one. At Gelson prices they should throw in a little service. Now, if she tried to pull that shit at Trader Joe's, the crew might tell the Bride of Two-Buck Chucky to hit the bricks.

Oh, Jesus, I just realized I've been to this Gelson's. Ugh, can't go back there again -- don't want to run into this hot mess.

I'm sure the paps just happened to be hanging out at Gerson's too. What a coincidence!

I call bullshit. What kind of crappy market doesn't help you load groceries you just PAID for? Furthermore, what kind of princess does her own shopping?

@SanFranBetsu:a Princess desperate to "connect" with the common folk. Opps! I mean her fan base. Yeah that's it.....

Damn, Katie dresses up a lot more than I do to go to our Gelson's. I'm always rolling in with wrinkly PJs and unwashed hair. Girl is ready to be photographed. And yes, like Hart88 said, paps are never just hanging out there. I call shenanigans!

If she did this at my store here in NJ, we would have to help her. I'd also tell her that people tip me $100 when I finish helping them with their bags.

i don't think it's a matter of paps hanging out there or not (not to defend her) but don't they like follow around stars in their cars and shit. ie, stalk them?
