Ellen Pompeo’s Beach Break
Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo, aka Dr. Meredith Grey, takes a Sunday stroll on the beach with one of her pet pooches in Malibu, Calif. She recently babysat co-star Patrick Dempsey’s twins!
“Over the summer, Pompeo and her fiancé, Christopher Ivery, visited Dempsey and wife Jill in London while he was shooting a film in Scotland. Pompeo helped baby-sit the couple’s twin sons, now 8 months, and says she can easily tell them apart: Sullivan “is a little more serious and a little bigger, maybe an athlete, and Darby looks more like a thinker and a poet. He may be the artist.”
USA Today also gives us a behind-the-scenes look on the Grey’s set.
“Busy, busy: Pompeo, dressed in a gray sweater, starts her day by drinking coffee, writing checks and handing receipts to an assistant, whom she promises to reimburse $20 for gas. She chows down on food all day. Before lunch, she’s dipping doughnuts in another cup of joe. After lunch, she runs off to find a stick of gum to get rid of her burrito breath.”
The season 4 premiere episode “A Change is Gonna Come” of Grey’s Anatomy airs next Thursday, Sept. 27 @ 9PM ET/PT on ABC.

I tell ya goes to show what some make up and lighting does for someone.
EWWW!
Very unattractive. Square, flat, botoxed face. Squinty eyes. Only occasionally looks OK on Greys.
So you all look like you just stepped down from a catwalk when you’re walking your dog on the beach? interesting.
Ellen is gorgous and fown to earth which is nice in the fucked up world of Hollywood
as much as I adore her and I can’t say anything about how bad she looks…cause I have gone out like that plenty of times. I wish she would have worn a cute sun top….even with those pants.
oh but PS…I still adore her
isn’t she like the most adorable person ever?
Sara - I suggest you get your eyes tested. Ellen is far from “gorgous” (spellchecker needed too !). She is very plain & ordinary. She also came across as a right ***** on Punked. Horrible woman.
Thanks for posting Ellen pictures and news. I love her, she is gorgeous and such a wondeful person. please have more pictures of Ellen whenever you can. She is so adorable.
WOW Ellen, I love Meredith Grey. She’s my favorite. Ellen is so pretty.
yes please have more pictures of Ellen. We love to see her pictures all the time. Her dog is black. I love that.
I agree with #7, she did no favours for herself by being a cow on Punked. Far from adorable & the worst actor on Greys.
Thanks for posting Ellen pics!
She’s gorgeous!
Ellen is gorgeous because she is one the nicest sweetest person, she is down toe arth and friendly to everyone and everyone who works with her and knows her loves her for that. Her inner beauty shines in her face and laugh. she is a normal human being and is very grounded and she treats her fans like people with respect and smiles all the time. She even smile to the papparrazi everytime. She happens to be one of the prettiest women on tv these days. because she remains to be human and humble. I’ll quote Oprah when she met her on the set, it was the third time she has seen Ellen ” Ellen Pompeo is an angel with a big heart, I couldn’t believe that with all the fame and succes she is living now with Greys, she remains to be as humble and kind and sweet as she is, I truly love this woman, I’m definately addinf her name to my address book” O magazine.
excuse my speilling mistakes I typed it rather quickly.
LOVE ELLEN POMPEO. she is the best. thanks for the pictures. please share more Ellen pictures. (for those who don’t like Ellen, why are you on her page???)
Ellen rocks.
gorgeous wonderful adorable human being. love her more each time i see her.
She’s adorable…she’s natural, she doesn’t need any make up, she’s just a girl who walks her dogs on the beach… adorable !
i don’t get it….she is sooooo blah looking….i don’t watch grey’s, so mayby she is a fantastic actress. i don’t know her personally either, so mayby she is a fantastic person. but looks wise, for an actress…..ugggg. yes, i realize she’s on the beach on her own time but usually, if someone is naturally pretty,….they still tend to look cute doing even something like this.
whups, “maybe”
laial you should wathc her video interviews from the ET set visit to Greys or her red carpet ones, you will see what we’re talking about. She is the real deal, no faking no trying to hide anything, she says it as it is, honest and endearing. you will love her I promise you. And please watch Greys in 3 days, its worth it. She is an amazing actress, she brought Meredith to life, you won’t even think she’s acting. She’s excellent.
Amber - you believe all you read in the press !! Strange defence - quoting a magazine article LOL
Interesting that her only fans are young teenage fangirls who love the teenage storyline that is Meredith/Derek. She is widely regarded as the worst Greys actress, playing a totally irritating whiny character. It’s no surprise that Sandra Oh, Katherine Heigl & Chandra Wilson are all award-winners, but not Ellen as supposedly the lead. The supporting players all outshine her.

mark,
i’ll do that.
thx
Natalie, I am not a teenager, and not all her fans are, and I did read that Oprah qoute as well, some time back. Ellen competes with the leading category in the awards, which is a lot harder to get into, but she is always in the alst top 10, or has been for the past 2 emmys and was nominated for a golden globe last year, if she was competing in the supporting she would have nailed one already, trust me. and all that I have read here from her fans are true, not just believing what they read, its from following their favorite celeb in interviews and shows and pictures and some even meeting her. I know a few who met her and Dempsey on a few occassions. They all praise her kindness and humanity. and they all talk about how pretty she is, and how amazing it is to be standing infront of her in person. If Oprah, george clooney, Jennifer Lopez, William Baldwin, Dustin Hoffman and I can keep on going, have all said amazing things about Ellen, when they didn’t even have to mention her, I tend to believe she is one unique gorgeous, very talented actress and human being. And she has one HUGE fan base and growing.
thank you Mark, well said.
I’m far from my teenage years as well.
And I enjoy wathcing Ellen and Grey’s with my daughters and son, and we all lover Ellen to the degree that we are willing to go on a family trip to the location of shooting when they are here in seatle and spend our day waiting to maybe get a chance to talk to her or take a picture with her, because its fun, and we love her. She’s true to her fans, and to herself and you can see it. Shes a bright fresh breath of air in the dark clouded skies of hollywood. Those who are like her are few, and a lot of them loose this essence once they become famous, Ellen didn’t and thats why we truly adore her.
LOVE THE PICTURES. THANK YOU JUST JARRED. please share more Ellen Pompeo pictures with us. I love your site and love it even more when I see Ellen on your pages. And thanks for the USA TOday article, I LOVED IT. Great look into the set of Greys anatomy and the cast members.
I think she looks great. Better then botox head Jill.
I really dont get it why you are bashing on ellen, i mean she looks great for a person that works 15 hours a day. I would bet all my money on the fact that she looks thousand times better then all of you together. I love ellen, she has a natural look, and she enjoys what she does.
Thank you just jarred. I ove E
Thank you just jarred. I love Ellen Pompeo. I love Grey’s Anatomy.
Ellen is the greatest. I love her dog, black and cute and so small. :)
I really like her, and I like the fact that she stays natural and don’t try to attract the paparazzy!!!!!
Thanks for the spellcheck Liam! I’m not from US so I appreciate it.
Fugly.
thank you just jarred. Ellen rocks. I love her.
you, anonymous, are an idiot. you have no idea how popular this actress is, and you take TABLOID reports that she is a ******* ***** and run with it. very educated of you. “respectable” people and reports have reported how wonderful, kind and beautiful she is. so, get over yourself.
ELLEN POMPEO IS GORGEOUS. She is teh cutest most adorable celeb out there. I adore her. I can’t wait for Grey’s Anatomy this week. Thank you just Jarred.
While I understand that not everyone has to like Ellen, I find it weird that people who hate her so much spend time commenting on her pics…
Thanks for these pics! More Ellen pics I say!
And Ellen is gorgeous! I don’t get why people are still fixated on the whole Punk’d thing, that was like 3 or 4 yrs ago! Anyway, I had a chance to be at the Emmy Red Carpet this year, and out of all of the GA people, she was the one who was the kindest to the fans, turning around to greet us and pose for pictures so that the fans could take some. I even got a chance to talk to her (well more like scream back and forth, it was loud), and if you think she’s adorable and beautiful and kind… she’s like a million times more adorable, beautiful, and kind in person. She’s a real sweetheart. Very refreshing to see that kind of celebrity in Hollywood these days.
And in regards to her being a bad actress, are you kidding me? Thanks Mark for pointing out the Emmy top 10 lists. To say that she is “widely regarded as the worst Grey’s actress” is ludacrous. Almost all of the critics agreed that she was snubbed at this year’s Emmy’s, and everyone continues to praise her for her stellar work on GA.
Not that it should matter, but I’m not a teenager either. That’s a tremendously hasty generalization to make.
oh, and by the way, not a teenager, i am 27 years old and adore her, and believe me, go on ANY forum and you will find many more “grown ups” that are fans of ellen than teenagers. and she is by FAR one of the best actresses on greys, her character is subtle, it takes an amazing actress to pull off subtle so exceptionally. the other characters are in your face characters and that is why they don’t get overlooked. they are all amazing actresses in their own ways.
i just love that she didn’t get invited to kates wedding and that they asked her about it.
i mean there is a reason why the cast hang out together, but then theres ellen and patrick separate..
What kind of dumb ***** marries a felon? LOSER. Noone else want your ugly bony ass so you have to settle for the prisoners. What a loser.
*****. White Trash.
I have never seen punkd. I live in LA. I know people who have seen her and talked/worked with her. They all say that she is NOT a nice person. She is a ****** ***** who does drugs with her loser fiance. In fact, that is the only reason she keeps him around. He is her drug dealer.
She also does botox all the time.
SHE’S SO FREAKING ADORABLE!
MORE ELLEN PLEASE!
Lorena and Amy, thank you for such wonderful words about our dear Ellen. I am a grown up and a guy and yes I love Grey’s Anatomy, and my favorite of all is Ellen Pompeo because of wha tyou guys said. Her acting is Exquisite and real, she has a strong force within her that brings out this amazing power of life and positive energy. She shines in her interviews nad tv appearnces.
Lorena, you are lucky to have been there at the Emmys, and yelling back and forth with Ellen :) ) If you can add more to that, anything more on Ellen, it would be lovely and much appreciated. I can imagine she is even more adorable and beautiful and lovely in person. :) personally I have a crush on her and I haven’r had a crush on a celeb. since my teen years. Ellen rocks my world. :) She is a star.
I LOVE ELLEN.
SHE ROCKS.
And yeah right, you know her, drugs and bottox.. PLEASE!!
get a life and stop lying. KARMA. keep that in mind. somenody is going to be doing the same thing to you one day.
Ellen is one honest sweet person. GREAT ACTRESS.
More Ellen pics please.
Man, she does look horrible!
I LOVE HOW SHES CRACKING UP IN THE PHOTOS.
FREAKIN LOVE HER :)
MORE ELLEN PLEASE.
THANK YOU JUST JARRED
Even if Punked was a few years ago, it doesn’t change the fact that she was a complete cow on it. Hardly good PR.
Definitely the weakest link on Greys. And engaged to a convicted drug dealer/credit card fraudster who’s probably only with her due to her high salary. Hope she gets him to sign a pre-nup LOL
I’m not a teenager and I adore Meredith/Derek!
Ellen is really sweet! Thanks for posting!
She looks like a man.
I love her in Grey’s but she’s just too skinny :—/ Those pics don’t look healthy!
I pitty you all with your lies and bad mouthing people you don’t even know.
shame on you all. you all need some manner education.
If you knew Ellen the slightest knowledge, you wouldn’t even stand the thought of someone badmouting such a sweet down to earth person.
She is someone who went through a lot in her life, worked harder than anyone you will ever know, she proved to everyone and most importantly to herself that she can be anything she ever wanted to be, and she succeeded with flying colors.. She has so much love in her heart, and she never stops sharing it.
AWWW SHE IS ADORABLE ! I simply love her more each time.
thank you just jarred for the lovely Ellen pics.
PLease never hesitate to share more Ellen pictures with her fans.
you know what I love about Ellen, is her natural girl next door feeling about her. you know the girl next door who happens to be this gorgeous amazing actress on Greys Anatomy, oh yeah and the star of the show. :)
you can’t but love her.
thanks just jarred. keep them coming.
God forbid a woman goes outside without makeup and fancy clothing. Some of you need to get a life.
she is adorable she is sweetest person and a great actress
More Ellen pics please.
nice one wolfpup :)
we’re lucky if we’re half that pretty with no makeup and looking that good at 37. Ellen is amazing. I love her childlike features and spirit.
She is lovely.
thank you JJ.
cute
she is fugly as hell.
Depeche, i think your jelous, cause Ellen has it all, and you dont.
Umm, excuse you who said that EP is just adored by teenagers. Honey I’m a grown up woman and I like Pompeo. She may not be this drop dead gorgeous beauty like the other actresses but that simpleness in Pompeo is one thing that I love most about her. But yeah, to each his own, some people will hate you and some people will love you, thats why were all like idiots in here spending time arguing why we love Pompeo and why we hate her,bwaha.Its fun isnt it?
Thank you Just Jarred for the Ellen Pictures, She is one amazing Lady. and I adore her. She looks cute here, laughing to the cameras and all. She’s a fun person, humble and sweet. Proud to be a fan.
i cant be jealous, couse i dont even know who is her. i just saw her and say that she is ugly, couse she is!
Love her. Absolutely adorable.
my kind of girl :) can’t wait for Greys.
My tv crush, Ellen Pompeo. thanks Just Jarred. keep those Ellen pics coming.
ps, I’m no teenager either. I find Ellen to be so normal, down to earth and charming. She’s a lovely human being and one hell of an actress.
Ellen is simply stunning. She is adorable, kind, and naturally beautiful. She has a warm smile and the cutest giggle on the entire planet. I have a feeling that half of you who bashed her based it on rumors. Ellen is sweet, listen to a single interview and you’ll think so too. Not only is the woman gorgeous, but she’s a wonderful actress too. Nobody could play Meredith Grey better and I wouldn’t want anyone too. I’m pretty sure that most of you people who were so rude are Kate Walsh fans. I’m not going to go off on Kate though, the woman is pretty in her own way, but in my opinion Ellen will always be better…in everything! Have a nice day everyone, hopefully you will all learn to behave yourselves in a more caring manner, because we all know you don’t look half as good as Ellie when you go out ;]
She’s gorgeous and so cute. He dogs are adorable!
Thanks!
AAAAWWWWW!! ELLEN POMPEO. Lovely lady.
I love the pictures, her smile is breathtaking.
thank you JJ for posting EP pictures. please post more EP candids in your site. we love it.
thank you.
hey Adam! i think it’s so sad the horrible things people are saying here but whatever.
About the Emmys… I have nothing but good things to say about Ellen. She arrived at the red carpet pretty late, and she did the E! interview with Guiliana Depandi. By the time that finished, the show had already started and so she was late. Her assistant grabbed her arm and was telling her to hurry, but there was a girl who wanted to interview her so Ellen told her assistant to hold on and she went ahead and did like a 5 minute interview with the girl. Then, of course, more reporters started asking her questions, and she didn’t blow off anybody. Her assistant gave up and just stood there while Ellen went ahead and did interview after interview after interview. And everytime the fans would yell for her, she’d turn around and wave and smile. She was so gracious and so sweet, and yes, like a million times more adorable up close.
Ellen’s always been my fave and she always comes off as sweet and humble in all of her interviews so I was just glad to see her be sweet to everyone in person.
I love it that you have a crush on her, lol. So do I.. how can you not right?
How can you not indeed? :) with a smile like that.
thanks Lorena, I enjoyed reading your posts. She is as amazing as they say. would love to see her in eprson one day. Just to greet her and wish her well of course.
She is amazing, very grateful to the fans, she knows very well, they make or break them. and she is very appreciative of that. that is very refreshing to see in hollywood. makes you really love wathcing her on Grey’s Anatomy and on interviews and live apearances.
Again thanks for sharing your experience here. hope you have many more as well. :) have a good day. can’t stop looking at her pictures. lol :)
AW!!! I love her! She’s sooooo gorgeous and cute, and she is sooooo sweet!
You’re shi*tting me - she eats?
ugh, nastee
Absolutely love her. She’s absolutely gorgeous and her smile is infectious!
And by the way people, get over it already with the punk’d, first of all, i have seen it, and i really don’t think she acted badly at all. if someone was coming on to my man like that, i would be making comments too. she was joking behind the girls back, come on people. besides, chris said she was onto the whole thing shortly before it began and was playing up the situation. so, you all need to get a life about punk’d, i guarantee every celebrity out there can be caught being a ***** at some time or another.
and quit spreading rumors about drugs, my god, do you guys have too much time on your hands?
such a pretty girl!
She isn’t a very good actress and I hate MerDer. But I do like Ellen.
Horrible actress. Not a beauty. She looks scrawny, dull limp hair & very square squashed face.
The most hilarious forum on ABC where teenage fangirls moon over Ellen & Patrick & can’t separate fiction from reality. So funny ! Every other forum hates Meredith with a passion. Such a whiny self-absorbed character.
Greys is written for teenage fangirls. Squeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!!!!
The drugs are not rumors when she almost left restaurant with a bag of white powder popping of her handbag if hadn’t pointed it out. A good catch, because it was a staged photo op with the rapper that every one though was dead.
Of course she could have been Ivory’s mule, but the frequent trips to the bathroom don’t help that rumor. She couldn’t be going to through up, could she?
Another question why doesn’t she come clean that she is already married to her dealer? She was going to announce it and the news of his other felonies, that include drug dealing came to light and she is embarrassed to be married to him.
The not using of the the engagement ring at the Emmy’s was a subconscious knee jerk reaction, but she can’t very well divorce him because that would be admitting that she was married, and loosing easy discreet access to drugs.
what fantasy land are you liviing in.
I know her as a celeb mixer myself. you have some guts to write such crap about someone you don’t know.
So many things in what you wrote proove you are one big liar, so I suggest the next you want to pull a nasty lie about someone you don’t know, get your facts right.
EP is a good person. you can’t find anything bad to say about her. She’s kind to everyone. has a heart of Gold and glorious smile. she’s one of our favorite clients her in LA. Celebs like her are hard to find. She is adored by many.
I love Ellen. she is a wonderful actress, amazing talent. and has a very heart warming smile. simply adorable.
thank you JJ for the pics.
always love to see Ellen.
Wonderful seeing Ellen so happy. She is amazing. beautiful smile. heart warming indeed. my daughters and I never miss a Grey’s Anatomy episode. looking forward to Thursday. Love this Lady, she is a class act, a really good model for honsety, warm hearts and down to earth human being. Its wonderful how much she appreciates her fans. I wish her a happy healthy life, and long one on Grey’s. :)
Does this woman actually eat? Cause it doesn’t look like she does.
I LOVE ELLEN POMPEO!! she is gorgeous. most beautiful eyes, most adorable smile. thank you just jarred.:)
I love Ellen. Big Grey’s fan. thank you JJ
Please VOTE FOR ELLEN ON PEOPLE.COM so they add a profile page for her. :)
http://www.people.com/people/celebrities/0,,,00.html
she’s sooooo cute
and i want those sweat pants she has
I love Ellen. She looks adorable here. her dog is soo small and cuuute. :D
You have no idea what a selfish ***** this girl is. she dumped all her friends the minute she got the series because they know who she is…. Cheap and greedy. She knew all along that Chris was a drug dealer and now he’s her slave… He cheats on her all the time and that’s their relationship. they’re both pot heads and fight all the time. She says things to him like: You really want to leave all this??? I hope they write her out of the show. She contributes nothing to it. She never has a nice thing to say about anyone and uses people shamelessly. Interesting the power of deception. She’s fooled you all. And she’s furious that she didn’t become the real deal… She looks desperately for photographs but nobody gives a ****..
anonymus
Okay, I think that Ellen doesn´t look good in any way, but well, I am not judging, but seriously, McDreamy wouldn´t choose Mer after he was with Addison!!!! No logic in there!!!
Sometimes she looks okay on GA, but c´mon, neither sexy nor cute.
She looks ok on the show…But she looked nasty as hell on punk’d, and her messed up attitude didn’t help. “yo, yo, yo, ya’ll got me, ya’ll got me, that’s it, that’s it”……what a fake ass *****
