Arrogant "Young & Restless" Re-Cast Speaks Out

[tboy34]

Yeah, I was just coming to say that. It just struck me like lightning that I remember Wiki'ing a while ago many actors, and they all started out in soaps. I feel stupid now ^_^;

Don't feel stupid. If you don't watch the soaps as often, you really won't know. Plus there are just about three or four day time actresses that are still on day time. Yet they do other things that have brought them a lot of fame in other areas. Look at Susan Lucci, and Linda Dano. They both have a huge amount of style and savvy. They made it into a business. In fact Linda Dano started out as a fashion designer. Getting her degree from F.I.T in new York. She has had her own business for about 20 years now. Yet she still acts on the soaps. She started out on One Life to live playing another character. Now she is back playing that Character again. We all know how successful Susan has been with the beauty business.

I don't think what she said makes her the be- all and end- all of evil. She's very green and basically put her foot in her mouth.

What she did say was very disrespectful to those actors in the daytime community whom have made daytime a career choice.

Kassie DePaiva has been on daytime playing Chelsea Reardon and Blair Manning on "Guiding Light" and "One Life To Live" for almost 22 years ... Susan Lucci has of course been Erica Kane on "All My Children" for almost 40 years and then there are those actors like Doug Davidson, sorely underappreciated as Paul Williams on "The Young & The Restless" for 29 years. When I read about her saying she has hit rock bottom and that she is lucky to have this kind of job it makes me think of how wrong she is, because of amazing actors like the aforementioned.

Who is that disrespectful. They chose that job as a career. She doesn't want to. That's not disrespectful. I work as a cashier over the summer and it's a job... there are some people who do it full time. Just because it's a stepping stone to me and I'm willing to say so doesn't make me disrespectful. If anything it's just you get your feathers all ruffled because you feel these people have some amazing worth that should cause us to ohhhhha dn ahhhhh but neither she nor I do. There is nothing wrong with what this girl said.
