Katherine Heigl admits having an ”image problem”

American actress Katherine Heigl has admitted of being a little too harsh at times and willing to change the way she expresses herself.

“Yeah, I think that was fair,” the New York Daily News quoted Heigl of telling KTLA morning show.

“It”s something I”ve spent a lot of time in the last year or so really thinking about or really trying to figure out, because, obviously, my career is important to me, and I”m really passionate about trying to keep it,” she explained.

Heigl, who stars in the new romantic comedy ”Life As We Know It,” has been the subject of bad press for years; thanks largely to her uneasy, prolonged exit from the hit show ”Grey”s Anatomy.”

The actress maintained on KTLA that she always tries to be honest in her interviews, but has realized over time she has to work on the manner she expresses herself.

“I”ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out where I kind of went off-track and how and why and what I can do in the future to avoid that.

“I don”t want to be the person digging my own grave.

“I”ll say what I gotta say and be honest. But maybe not so edgy,” she added.
