"McSteamy" to Start Fresh in "Grey's" Season 4

"Grey's Anatomy" boss Shonda Rhimes previewed season 4 of the blockbuster medical drama in her blog saying Dr. Mark McSteamy Sloan (largely MIA from the finale) "starts fresh, without [spin-off-bound] Addison. He'll get to stand on his own."

Earlier this week, the actor appeared on "Live with Regis and Kelly" to preview the season finale of his hit series and talk about his marriage to actress Rebecca Gayheart whom he married in a quickie ceremony in Las Vegas in 2004.

As USA Today reports, Gayheart has been involved with Chrysalis, a charity that helps the homeless get jobs, for over 6 years. In her first year as a volunteer, she set up the Butterfly Ball fundraiser raising $4.5 million over five years.


Gayheart prompted famous friends to make donations and brought such celebrities as Salma Hayek and Jackie Chan down for tours of Skid Row. The Danes themselves visited the charity center earlier this week as they plan the next event.

The $1,000-a-person gala, at a private L.A. residence on June 2, is expected to draw many stars, including Dane's fellow Seattle Grace docs.

"I've invited all of them, and I think if everyone's in town, they'll show up," he says.

After the ball, the couple will take a month off for a round-the-world vacation before he is called back to the Grey's set in mid-July.
