Ellen Pompeo Will Continue On 'Grey's Anatomy' If Asked

Ellen Pompeo heads to Maxfield to do some shopping on Friday (September 30) in Los Angeles.

The 41-year-old actress recently chatted with TV Guide about her future on her hit show Grey’s Anatomy.

“I was invited for eight years – that was my contract – and no one has asked me for a day more,” Ellen said. “I know [creator] Shonda Rhimes has said the show will continue, but I wouldn’t presume that they want to continue with me. You don’t get dressed for the party if you don’t have an invitation.”

“I would love the opportunity to discuss it,” Ellen said about extending her contract. “I would never turn up my nose at Grey’s. As long as the stories are honest and truthful, and Patrick [Dempsey] and I feel there is material for us to be passionate about, it still beats a 9-to-5 job any day. If I hear from the fans that they want us to keep going, then I would continue because we owe them everything.”
