Speaking of the performance, it sounds like she did an outstanding job, though the actress herself seems mostly relieved that she got through it without messing up! “My 10-year-old daughter [Joy] said, ‘Mom just don’t mess up,’ ” said the three-time Emmy nominee. “That was the advice she gave me and so that’s what I took with me on stage and it seemed to have worked.”

And what did her Grey’s co-stars think?

“She was absolutely amazing,” Pickens told PEOPLE. “She was perfect and should be very proud of her performance. I had a great time watching her.”

I’m sure she’s going to be awesome during the entire run. For those wondering, you can catch Chandra Wilson in Chicago for a four-week stretch only. Her last performance will be Sunday, July 5. So if you haven’t gotten tickets yet, run run run!

At the NAACP Awards she said, “That was a very interesting rumor. And it’s not true.” Adding, “You know I don’t like to tell you what’s going to happen on the show, but that is a rumor.”

Even James Pickens Jr. who was quoted as confirming Heigl’s exit from the show backtracked his earlier comment, saying, “We’ve been living with these rumors for a long time. When the question was posed to me, I was more trying to congratulate Katie and T.R. on whatever they were going to do. But yeah, I don’t have any special info about it either way.”

So it looks like we’re back to where we were before with The Powers That Be trying to squash rumors and deny any departures.

Rumors, however, are rumors for a reason. So it’s entirely possible that one of them – if not both – is headed out of the show. George’s storyline is said to be picking up, so perhaps T.R. Knight has changed his mind about ending his contract.

The only thing we know for sure is that we don’t know anything for sure.

No doubt, rumors will continue to spring up one way or the other before we get an official confirmation.

For now, at least we can keep the hope alive that either – or both – of the actors will remain with the series.
