Patrick Dempsey recently revealed that he suffers from dyslexia to Barbara Walters for an episode of her Specials that will air Wednesday. He said he had a tough time as a kid and still has trouble on set.

Dempsey, 40, says he struggles while reading scripts and memorizing his lines.

“I think that’s when I get the most insecure … it’s very hard for me to read it off the page,” he says. “I need to memorize it, in order to go on.”

Dempsey, now experiencing a career comeback since dropping off Hollywood’s radar screen after his ’80s romantic comedy days, says he was once prone to divalike behavior.

“You can’t have temper tantrums,” he says. “You have to be professional and I don’t think I understood that at the time.”

On “Grey’s Anatomy,” Dempsey’s character is nicknamed “Dr. McDreamy” by the hospital’s female interns, including Dr. Meredith Grey, played by Ellen Pompeo.(source)

McDreamy? More like McDummy. What a stupid idiot who can’t read. I would be upset about him possibly seeing this post but he would quit after the title because it would give him a headache. I don’t ever watch Grey’s Anatomy because I am too busy inoculating the world’s sick with life giving vitamins. Except I would change the world’s sick to Swedish Figure Skaters and life giving vitamins with my penis. Oh, Katherine Hiegl is on that show. She’s hot.
