Katherine Heigl hasn't had a good reputation amongst "Grey's Anatomy" fans after she was booted off hit show.

During a recent Facebook Q&A on Saturday, the 35-year-old actress, who is starring in the new show "State of Affairs," addressed all the rumors circulating about her attitude, especially one that she's a "rude" person.

"Honestly, I don't think I am. Nothing makes me more uncomfortable than confrontation or hurting someone's feelings and I would never, ever actively do so on purpose," explained Heigl, according to the media outlet Gawker.

She continued, "Of course just like any human being I've made mistakes and unwittingly or carelessly spoken or acted but I always try to make any wrong right. That doesn't mean I won't stand up for myself by drawing boundaries and asking to be treated kindly and respectfully but I don't do that with any rude or unkind intentions just with the same strength and honesty I think every one of us is entitled to."

Katherine Heigl, who will be playing CIA analyst Charleston Tucker on the new NBC show, had been blasted by "Grey's Anatomy" and "Scandal" creator Shonda Rhimes last month, according to People magazine.

"I don't put up with bullshit or nasty people. I don't have time for it. There are no Heigls in this situation," stated Rhimes to The Hollywood Reporter.

Heigl, who starred as Dr. Izze Stevens in the medical drama, made headlines and worsened her conflict with Rhimes when she removed her name from Emmy consideration in 2008 because she felt she was not "given the material to warrant a nomination," according to the NY Daily News.

The television actress had previously addressed rumors that she was difficult to work with, and the answer wasn't very different from the response she recently gave.

"If I ever disappointed somebody, it was never intentional," the mother-of-two stated.
