Katherine Attends Oscar Test Run
Katherine visited the Kodak Theatre on Saturday, 23rd February to attend rehearsals for the 80th Academy Awards which take place this evening in Los Angeles. She joined fellow A-list actresses Nicole Kidman, Renee Zellwegger and Cameron Diaz to practice her lines ahead of the prestigious ceremony.

The Associated Press reported that Katie was a little concerned about seeing the teleprompter from the stage without her glasses:

Renee Zellweger arrived in a sweat shirt, jeans and sneakers, her oversized Gucci bag slung over her shoulder. Before taking the stage, she plunked her bag on the floor and fished out a pair of tall Christian Louboutin heels. She left her socks and sneakers in a pile near her purse as she stepped out to rehearse her lines.

After hitting her mark, she slipped off the stilettos and tossed them back into her bag, saying, "Well, that's enough of these things for today" to no one in particular.

Zellweger greeted Katherine Heigl, who was headed to the stage carrying two pairs of heels. But shoes weren't her problem - seeing the teleprompter was. Heigl narrowed her eyes as she tried to make out the words on the screen at the back of the theater.

"Oh, no," she said. "I'll try not to squint."

According to the telecast for the event, Katherine is scheduled to present the third award of the evening for Makeup at 5.57pm (PT). Visit Cinemascope for a full rundown of activities and presentations.
