Katherine Heigl has been a television sensation, rom-com leading lady and most recently a get for indie filmmakers — mostly while bringing up young children.
In the wake of Zoe Saldana‘s recent comments about studio treatment of actresses raising kids, Heigl said she was always uncomfortable with the extent of traditional star “perk packages” — except when it comes to balancing her work and family life.
“Before I had children, my lawyer would be negotiating the perk package, and I remember saying to him, ‘Are you crazy? I don’t need a a masseuse every week!’ Who has time for that?” Heigl told TheWrap during an interview to promote Entertainment One’s low-budget indie drama “Jackie & Ryan.”
