Ellen Pompeo - “Allure” October 2008
Grey’s Anatomy lead actress Ellen Pompeo shines on the October 2008 cover of Allure, which was shot in New York City by Michael Thompson. Here is a preview of her interview:
On catching the acting bug as a child while watching the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall: “Afterward, I stood up and said, ‘That’s what I want to be. They’re alive. That’s what I want to do.’ … [But] I was very sad and introverted as a child, and I would never, ever have had the confidence or the extroverted nature to be in a school play.”
On being was surprised at Grey’s Anatomy’s popularity: “When I did the pilot, I thought, ‘I can’t stand medical shows. This will never get on.’”
On fashion being one of her passions: “Fashion is an art form like any other. All artists love all art. Anything creative—cooking, literature, art—I love it all.”
On having one piece of advice for Meredith: “Just move on. There are plenty of fish in the sea.”

LOL….I agree, but move on? Pfft, if Meredith moved on, SHE’d be out of a job.
Well, this again is another beautiful shoot…but, I think the actors and actresses should stop taking the jobs from models…it’s simply not fair…that’s why there are actresses, and then there are models…I’m not say that there can’t be a crossover…I’m just a little bored with seeing an actress doing a models job in the fashion magazines.
LOVE the cover! cant wait til grey’s anatomy comes back!:)
That doesn’t even look like her!
Love the McQueen dress.
WOW, she might be a HOT readhead! <3
That’s crazy, #2
Seems many years younger in this look…

Allure is not a fashion magazine, it is a beauty and make up magazine.
OMG. This is not at all what she looks like!!! Airbrushing is a good thing! If fact…she is very unattractive…..love the show though.
I LOVE HER!
GREY’S ANATOMY ROCKS
omg :) i love her I LOVE <3
YAY!! she´s looking pretty amazing in that cover! but i have to disagree with you Ellen… Meredith WON´T move on! if she does, it would be the ending of the show… the all Meredith-Derek drama if very important!
Peace.
She’s so hot!!!
Ellen is gorgeous,love her :)
Thanks JJ
I think she’s joking about Meredith, this is like when Patrick Dempsey said, that Derek should leave Meredith because she’s too complicated :)
They’re just trying to tease the fans :)
Ellen is soooooooooo gorgeous
SHE’S FU*KING HOT…
I LOVE HER LEGS, SHE SHOULD SHOW THEM MORE OFTEN ;)
She’s really stunning, I love artistic pics!
She’s gorgeous with red hair,hot ;)
Here starts the Grey’s promotion I guess. She looks great here. Almost didn’t realize it was her.

Lol, no they’re not joking and yes they’re totally right. Their relationship is as unhealthy as it can get.
WOW! These pics are amazing! She’s stunning!
Whoah, talk about being PHOTO-SHOPPED to death. Atrocious !
They’ve barely left any of her left. She looks like Heather Locklear.
Wow, this is s beautiful photo shoot. She looks great…
Plus, she’s on the biggest issue ever of Allure.
I love Ellen, she had her hard childhood and yet she’s simple, humble, she’s a wonderful person.
What a horrible shoot. She’s not a beauty so they’ve gone for high-concept & airbrushed the life out of her. Unrecognisable.
Word on MurDer though. Even she recognises Meredeath is a flake which is saying something !
I think this wins for “most photoshopped cover EVER”.
