When Katherine Heigl hosted a Q&A on Facebook on Monday, she had to know some of the questions would be bizarre, but one user brought up the fact that Muslims are negatively portrayed on the show.
User Cathina Marie Clinton-Hourani asked Heigl: "I love your show and watch it every week, however my husband refuses, he says it portrays Muslims negatively. How do would you address his concerns?"
What could have been an easy question for Heigl to skip over since she was behind a computer screen, she decided to face the issue head-on and executed this answer:
"I would tell him to be patient and see how the season unfolds...we aren't portraying Muslims negatively but rather terrorism in all forms...Charleston is trying to protect the ideals of the Muslim religion by eradicating those who hold it hostage."
She definitely handled that in a mature, honest way. And though that was a more serious question, not all of the questions were like that. One user even wanted to know what Heigl was like when she woke up in the morning.
"Do you wake up all bright and shiny or more dark and twisted?" user Han Xiang Chen asked.
Her answer made her seem like less of a celebrity and more like an average person:
"Hmmm...probably more hazy and out of it! My daughter's know that I'm good for nothing until I've had my first cup of Yerba Mate!" Heigl responded.
The Q&A lasted one hour and no topic was off limits.
