Katherine Heigl's representative has lashed out at reports she was dropped from an upcoming A-list movie ensemble due to her extortionate salary demands.
The Grey's Anatomy star, who broke into movies with 2007 comedy hit Knocked Up, was expected to join Hollywood superstars Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner and Anne Hathaway in romantic comedy Valentine's Day, due to hit screens in 2011.
But according to online reports, the star was booted out of the casting line-up after demanding payment of $3 million dollars, despite working for a maximum of 14 days.
A source close to the project tells New York gossip column PageSix that "no other actors asked for nearly that amount".
However, Heigl's publicist refutes the rumours - insisting it was the actress who decided not to take part in the film.
The rep tells PageSix, "The story is ludicrous. Early negotiations are a daily occurrence in this business, and just for clarification, Katherine walked away from this project for multiple reasons."
