Gossip

If Grey's Anatomy has any fans left, tonight's two-hour fourth season finale is supposedly the night you've been waiting for!

Just kidding. The show still draws millions of loyal viewers. Yet it's been a long time since something interesting happened on it.

Well, that supposedly changes tonight. Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek (Patrick Dempsey) are going to be getting together for good.

We know this because the show's own creator and producer, Shonda Rhimes, has already said so publicly. We don't get it either.

Anyway, here's a photo from tonight's show. Meredith is holding what looks like champagne, ready to celebrate ... something.

More than three years later, will a terrific episode finally bring Meredith and Derek together - or will the hit medical drama jump the shark for good?

Also, Alex and Izzie may or may not get together, and there's another love triangle involving possible girl-on-girl action. Gotta love Grey's Anatomy!

Ghost Whisperer star Jennifer Love Hewitt and Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey were recently voted the sexiest stars on TV by TV Guide.

Hard to argue with that logic. The respective hotties will appear on two alternative covers of the TV magazine's "Sexiest Stars" issue.

In honor of the (well-deserved, sexy) honors earned by Jennifer Love Hewitt and Patrick Dempsey, here is a very sexy photo of each. Enjoy ...

J. Love and Patrick Dempsey: The sexiest stars on TV.

All we have to say about these pics is that McDreamy is living up to his McNickname, and man, all those ghosts Jennifer Love Hewitt whispers to on the CBS TV show she apparently stars on are pretty damn lucky.

McDreamy is no McSteamy, Patrick Dempsey admits.

"I'm not Eric Dane â€" McSteamy is in perfect shape" the Grey's Anatomy star tells the new issue of Parade Magazine. "I definitely have pec envy."

"There's a lot of pressure being a man in this town."

He says his wife of eight years, Jillian, keeps him grounded.

"She always says in the morning, ‘They should see you now!'" jokes Dempsey, who adds that fame "gets very heady ... you've got to be very careful.

"I think I've been managing that well. This is a great opportunity now to really define the next part of my life. I just want to do it right."

Defining the life of Patrick Dempsey these days at home? His daughter Tallulah, 6, and his one-year-old twins, Darby and Sullivan.

"It's like a slapstick routine watching these drunk little men run around because they're so wobbly," he says. "When you see something happen that they couldn't do the day before, it's really heartwarming."

As for what happens tonight with Meredith and Derek? That you'll have to wait and see, although Dempsey says he's "excited" for the couple to finally move forward and grow together.

Patrick and the rest of the Grey's Anatomy cast return at 9 p.m. on ABC. How well do you know the hit medical drama? Follow this link for an exclusive Grey's Anatomy quiz!

Just call him Dr. McDreamy ... on Grey's Anatomy and in real life!

Patrick Dempsey unveiled a cancer center in his name at the Central Maine Medical Center in his hometown of Lewiston, Maine, on Monday.

The Patrick Dempsey Center for Cancer Hope & Healing, which opens March 31, will offer education and support for cancer patients and their families.

The handsome Grey's Anatomy star, 42, says he was inspired after his mother successfully overcame ovarian cancer at the hospital.

"For a family to get a cancer diagnosis is devastating, and all the information out there can be overwhelming," Patrick Dempsey said.

"A lot of the Web sites I went to just didn't have enough information."

Patrick provided a seed grant for the center, will also take part in the center's public education campaign about cancer prevention and detection.

His sister, Mary, a hospital employee, will run the center.

Dempsey has been married to his wife, Jillian Dempsey, for eight years. They have twins, Darby and Sullivan, 1, and a daughter, Tallulah, 6.

With all the scandal we write about on The Hollywood Gossip, it's always nice to see that some celebrities are grounded and giving back to their community.

A naked, writhing, sweaty Marisa Tomei engaged in feverish, doggy-style sex might sound terrific to a lot of you guys reading this.

Well, yeah... and if it weren't for the hulking, naked Philip Seymour Hoffman going to town on her, we might share that sentiment.

This is why some sites have called the raunchy, vigorous Marisa Tomei nude scene - from "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" - the best sex scene of its naked kind in 2007, while others have deemed the same scene the year's worst.

Good: Marisa Tomei nude. Bad: Philip Seymour Hoffman nude on top of her.

It's like a metaphor for life. Every Marisa Tomei naked scene has its pudgy, nude Philip Seymour Hoffman counterpart. Yin and yang. Okay, moving on.

Papermag's Cinemaniac compiled his list of the Top 10 Worst Nude Scenes of All Time, inspired by "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead."

Here are the rest of the scenes and celebrities making the list, such as Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey and some actually good actresses...

We know. It's extremely difficult to compete with George Clooney in this category, even if your TV character gave birth to the term McDreamy.

But Patrick Dempsey pulls it off.

Not just because he's a handsome fellow, either. Patrick Dempsey is one of the most laid-back celebrities out there, unmoved by his own fame.

He and his wife, Jillian Dempsey (pictured), have been married since 1999 and have three children. That's an eternity in Hollywood, or anywhere these days!

For these reason, the Grey's Anatomy / Enchanted star and family man was the dreamiest star on the red carpet last night, in our opinion ...

Lance Armstrong who? Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey makes like the cycling champ and rides to glory (or at least to the store) in Los Angeles this week.

The man behind McDreamy is a major auto racing and cycling enthusiast.

The writers' strike in Hollywood has Patrick Dempsey temporarily out of work, but on the bright side, that means more time with the bike - and the kids. He also has a big, hit movie out right now with Enchanted. Life is good for this doc.

Life will also good for you, readers, if you follow the link and check out The Hollywood Gossip's gallery of Patrick Dempsey photos. Hotness alert!

Hmm... auditioning for Dancing with the Stars' next season? Probably not. But "Enchanted" costars Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey certainly have got some skills!

Below, the Grey's Anatomy actor and the cute redhead teach the audience the proper steps to a Viennese Waltz during taping of TRL Monday in New York.

Patrick Dempsey: Always McDreamy ... even on the dance floor.

Patrick is certainly enjoying a career revival, with Grey's Anatomy now in its fourth season, Enchanted in theaters now, and a new romantic comedy, Made of Honor, due out in 2008. One can never get enough Dempsey in our opinion!

Dr. McDreamy and his cohorts may be checking out of Seattle Grace early this year, thanks to a Hollywood writers' strike that started early this morning.

The Writers Guild of America is expected to picket 14 studios in four-hour shifts from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day until a new contract is reached.

Writers are asking for bigger DVD profits and revenue from distribution of films and TV shows over the Internet, and the work stoppage may threaten production of Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Heroes and other smash hit shows.

"Grey's Anatomy is not prepared for the Writers' Guild of America strike," Patrick Dempsey told Entertainment Tonight in an interview Monday.

"We are not that far ahead. We have enough show to take us through Christmas, but then we'll have to see if that's the end of the season."

Patrick Dempsey said that while he isn't worried personally, the strike could adversely affect dozens of other cast and crew members.

"My concern is not so much for myself, because I'll be alright, but people who are living more paycheck to paycheck are going to be damaged much more profoundly," the man behind Dr. Derek Shepherd said. "And I think that's a real tragedy."

You know what else would be a real tragedy? If you failed to peruse The Hollywood Gossip gallery of Patrick Dempsey photos. The man is not unhandsome.

On a break from filming the hit series Grey's Anatomy, Patrick Dempsey stays more or less incognito Tuesday, enjoying a day of solitude and strolling through chilly streets of Paris, France. If he weren't so darn McDreamy, he might be anonymous in that getup ... but his handsomeness is inescapable.

Stylish as ever, Patrick Dempsey does a little sightseeing in France.

While fans may be split over whether they prefer to see Patrick or Heroes' Milo Ventimiglia shirtless, there's no disputing that both of these hunks' TV shows have become enormously popular - and their hotness is a big reason.

Patrick, Ellen Pompeo, Katherine Heigl and the rest of the Grey's Anatomy cast return to the airwaves tonight at 9 p.m. on ABC.
