Katherine Heigl has come a long way since carrying a gun-totting doll in 1998's Bride of Chucky.

The Grey's Anatomy star and newly minted screen queen has made a tremendous leap onto the A-List, counting herself among the top five of Hollywood's highest-paid actresses, according to the Hollywood Reporter's Women in Entertainment: Power 100 list.

The 30-year-old movie newbie, who made her major box office debut in 2007's Knocked Up (which has grossed more than $148 million) and followed the comedic hit up with 27 Dresses, took the fifth spot on the prestigious list behind such powerhouses as Angelina Jolie (No. 1), Julia Roberts (No. 2), Reese Witherspoon (No. 3) and Cameron Diaz (No. 4).

In July, Forbes listed Heigl at No. 73 on the Celebrity 100 list, making her the highest-paid TV actress, with earnings at $13 million for her role as Dr. Izzie Stevens on Grey's – which earned her an Emmy in 2007.

"This is my dream come true," she said of her Emmy win. "I've been doing this for 17 years and people don't count [the years] 'cause I started as a kid, but I counted because I've worked my a-- off."

Heigl can next be seen on the big screen in the 2009 romantic comedy The Ugly Truth, opposite Gerard Butler.

I'm watching the People's Choice Awards and KH's movie '27 Dresses' just won the award for Favorite Comedy Movie. KH looked fabulous too!

[SarahWhitman]

Oh I forgot about those awards! Atleast, that they were on already. Good for Katie! I really want to see "27 Dresses" but haven't had the opportunity. I hope to see it soon, though. I'm glad it won an award---it looks really good.

Katie ranked in at #27 on BuddyTV's 50 Sexiest Women of 2008.

Being sick ain't all that bad. Anybody would die to have a doctor like Dr. Stevens taking care of them. Heigl came on the scene in 1992 with her acting debut in the movie, That Night. Ever since then, she has been in several movies and advertising campaigns. She got her big break with her role on the hit ABC TV show Grey's Anatomy. She's married to singer Josh Kelley.
