During the summer of 2010, Katherine Heigl actively promoted the Lionsgate comedy-thriller “Killers,” starring alongside Ashton Kutcher. The movie also featured Tom Selleck and Catherine O’Hara.

Portraying a woman named Jen Kornfeldt who travels to France and meets the man of her dreams, a professional assassin named Spencer (Ashton Kutcher), the scenes in Nice were filmed over seven days.
Behind the Scenes: How Ashton Kutcher Transformed for ‘Killers’
Ashton Kutcher got fit for the role by watching a DVD he had bought after watching a late-night infomercial on US television.
“I thought he had used a personal trainer and I wanted to know who it was and how he got into that shape so quickly,” director Robert Luketic told The Sydney Morning Herald.

“Then one day I was in his living room and he showed me the DVD. I thought ‘Oh my god. This can’t be for real.’ But it was,” he added.
“People always say actors create these false body images with magazine covers and movies and things like that. We do. It’s even false for ourselves, too. I mean, you can’t keep that up,” Kutcher joked about his muscular physique in the movie.
Born on November 24, 1978, at Columbia Hospital for Women in Washington, D.C., Heigl was 31 years old when Killers was released in June 2010.
Her co-star Christopher Ashton Kutcher was born on February 7, 1978, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and celebrated his 32nd birthday on February 7, 2010.

Fashion on the Red Carpet: Katherine Heigl’s Premier Night at ‘Killers’
In June 2010, Katherine Heigl hit the red carpet at the Killers premiere in Los Angeles. Don’t you wonder what went through her head when she decided to wear that outfit?

The dress is an Oscar de la Renta and is pretty, not to mention seasonally appropriate. Many celebrities have been spotted wearing combo dresses (dresses made up of two pieces), and Kristen Stewart is one of them.
But that particular ODLR dress is not suited for her. It will only look best on someone less curvy and less busty, and Katherine Heigl does not fall in that category.

Allow me to explain why. The dress is ruffled from top to bottom. Ruffles add volume, which equals weight. Katherine Heigl is already curvy and busty. She does not need the extra volume on her bust or the extra weight. To make matters worse, she opted to style her hair in curls, adding more volume to the look.
To make a long story short, she chose the wrong dress for her body type and the wrong hairstyle, too. Tsk, tsk, tsk. If this was a stylist’s fault and not hers, that stylist should be fired.
I also think the sandals she wore to the event don’t match the outfit. Pumps would have looked better.
