Ellen Pompeo says seeing herself age from 33 to 50 on Grey's Anatomy is a "motherf*cker"

Pompeo said on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast that watching Meredith Grey age “from 33 to 50 on screen (is) not so fun,” adding: “You really see (the difference) because I’m in the same clothes (playing) the same character. So the way I see myself aging — it’s a motherf*cker.” That's why Pompeo says she'll leave Grey's Anatomy when she thinks she and the series is overstaying its welcome. I do not want to be the grapes dying on the vine,” she said.
