    You have to be kidding me:

    Patrick Dempsey named Star of the Year by People Magazine.

    WTF are the people at PEOPLE snorting? Bad choice.

    He narrowly edged Jamie Lynn Spears...

    Isn't that a sad statement?

    He didn't even have the best year among the actors on Grey's. Heigl won an Emmy (acclaim), made news with her defense of TR Knight against Isaiah Washington (scandal), starred in a big movie Knocked Up (success) and finished off by getting married to a musician (big personal life news). That's like a Grand Slam in the celebrity world.

    Judd Apatow probably would have gotten my vote for Entertainer of the Year, but I'm guessing his mug wouldn't sell too many issues of People...

    Far as I'm concerned, the Star of the Year is the Sun. This year and every year.

    I agree, but both Heigl and Dempsey were on a hit show and had hit movies... Wasn't Dempsey the guy who actually got physical with Isaiah Washington, so he was involved with that as well...

    Yes, Heigl was probably more responsible for the success of Knocked Up than Dempsey was for Enchanted...

    Even McLovin from Superbad would have been a better selection than McDreamy.

    Quick... Name the actor who played him...






    That's what I thought...

    Christopher Mintz-Plasse...how's that Mizzou?

    That's great if you didn't go to IMDB or google "McLovin" :)

    He was probably the most memorable character of the year...

    I actually didn't Google, but knew his name because of his memorable appearance on Jay Leno.
