One star of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy is speaking out about an incident on set between Isaiah Washington and Patrick Dempsey that has sparked plenty of rumors. Various reports about the dispute have circulated, but Anatomy’s Katherine Heigl appeared on Ellen DeGeneres’ show Tuesday and played down the incident: "There was some scuffle. … I don’t know what the fight was about. … It was something silly and manly. There was a little burst of testosterone in the room, and then within five minutes … they were totally fine and joking with each other and laughing." Washington was to have taped an interview Tuesday with DeGeneres to appear today, but canceled (citing a change in his production schedule) after Heigl playfully warned DeGeneres to "step back" during Washington’s appearance. DeGeneres responded by saying Washington "better not call me a name … I’ll be swinging." ABC’s Charissa Gilmore emphasizes that Washington’s standing with the show is fine despite the on-set altercation, saying, "We have no intention of replacing Isaiah."
