Greg Vaughan Joining DAYS... But As Who?!
Working together upcoming Hallmark movie Two In will be a good trial run for Greg Vaughan (ex-Diego, THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS; ex-Lucky, GENERAL HOSPITAL) and Alison Sweeney (Sami, DAYS OF OUR LIVES) before the two become co-stars in Salem!
A DAYS setsider tells Soaps In Depth that Vaughan has been cast on the NBC soap -- but it's unclear whether or not he'll be playing Sami's twin brother, Eric, as rumored.
What we do know is that Vaughan will begin taping in August and he'll be entering the canvas as a holy man. Has Eric made a career change since moving to Colorado following a near-fatal accident? Or has Vaughan been cast in an altogether different role?
A spokesperson for DAYS could not be reached for comment.
His short stint at THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS has come to an end, and Peter Porte (Ricky) admits that he saw the writing on the wall for his future in playing Isabella and Paul's son. "I was there just under a year, but when you start stealing babies, threatening lead characters and murdering people, you know your time is going to be limited," he tells Soaps In Depth with a smile. "He certainly was his mother's son!"
Overall, Porte says his experience on Y&R was "incredible. I had a great time. I learned a lot and worked with some incredible people." And should another soap come calling, Porte has his door wide open. "I'd love to!" he says of tackling another daytime role. "Sign me up!"
On Saturday, July 21, THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS star Kate Linder (Esther) will be headed to Vancouver, BC, Canada, to host the 14th Annual Afternoon Tea, and she's bringing some colleagues along with her! Christian Jules LeBlanc (Michael), Jessica Collins (Avery), Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea) and Y&R hair and makeup artists George Guzman and Patti Denney will join Linder for a charity appearance to raise funds for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
The event will be held at the Hyatt Regency at 655 Burrard Street in Vancouver, from noon to 2 p.m. LeBlanc will emcee the tea party, which will include a Q&A session, live auction, an on-the-spot makeover for one lucky winner, and autograph session. Plus, attendees will get a gift bag and be able to purchase exclusive Y&R merchandise. Tickets are $80 and are available at vancouvertea.lonnent.com. For questions, call (604) 836-7929.
THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS' Eric Roberts (ex-Vance) is the latest former soap star to lend his talents to Cinemax's late-night anthology series, FEMME FATALES. In this week's episode, titled "Family Business," he'll play a politician who, together with a hard-partying trust fund heir -- played by Ashley Hamilton (Cole, SUNSET BEACH) -- gets caught between an ambitious Mafia princess and the determined female detective who's trying to take her down. Nikki Griffin, who had a recurring role on Y&R as Crimson Lights barista Kelly, plays the Mafia princess, Nicole, and GENERAL HOSPITAL's Stephen Macht (ex-Trevor) returns as Mob boss Mr. Ryan. Tune in Friday, July 6, at 11 p.m. ET.
Congratulations to THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL's Jennifer Gareis (Donna) and her husband, Bobby Gassemieh, on the birth of their little girl! The couple welcomed daughter Sophia Rose Gareis Gassemieh on June 29. "Mommy and baby are happy and well," reports a B&B spokesperson. Baby Sophia joins her big brother, Gavin, who just celebrated his second birthday.
THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL's Karen recently made the move from the East Coast to Los Angeles -- and came out as a lesbian in the process -- but don't expect to see much more of Caroline's mom (at least, not this one).
Her portrayer, Joanna Johnson, is currently producing the new CW medical drama, EMILY OWENS, M.D., which will premiere in the fall. As a result, Johnson is currently unavailable to tape more episodes, which is all part of the long-running understanding she's had with B&B's executive producer and headwriter, Bradley Bell.
That means the broader story being planned for Karen and Danielle may have to wait, for now. "Unfortunately, Joanna's time is being taken up with this new show," confirms a show spokesperson. "Her storyline is not necessarily going away, but it's being refocused."
On the bright side, the rep says fans can look forward to continue seeing more of Caroline's other mom, Dani, played by soap vet Crystal Chappell.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, ONE LIFE TO LIVE's Kelley Missal (Dani) has been cast in the independent film, The Contest, a drama which will tackle the sensitive subject of high school bullying. The film focuses on two small-town students -- a bully, and one who has been bullied -- who are forced to work together in a cooking contest. The ensemble cast is headlined by Kenton Duty (Disney's SHAKE IT UP!) and Katherine McNamara (a star in the upcoming Tom Sawyer & Huckleberry Finn) and includes Kyle Dean Massey (HART OF DIXIE) and Raviv Ullman (Disney's PHIL OF THE FUTURE). Filming is currently underway in New York.
In November, GENERAL HOSPITAL alum Brianna Brown (ex-Lisa) will be relocating to Atlanta to begin production on DEVIOUS MAIDS, which has been picked up for series by Lifetime. But the actress is already getting familiarized with the Georgia city: she's currently in Hot-lanta shooting an episode of DROP DEAD DIVA!
A spokesperson for the Lifetime hit tells Soaps In Depth exclusively that Brown will appear in DIVA's season finale, "Jane's Getting Married," airing Sunday, September 9. Brown will play a character named Hannah, who is married to Jane's client, Mark, and is suffering from a neuronal brain tumor that will kill her in six months -- and she's refusing surgery. "She's a former cocktail waitress at a dive bar who now is a genius due to a fatal brain tumor that rapidly increased her intelligence 50 points," explains Brown. "She refuses to remove the tumor despite her husband's wishes because she is finally respected for her brain."
As far as the growing buzz on MAIDS, Brown tells In Depth she's excited to see what the future holds. "We will be moving production to Atlanta at the end of November to shoot our 13 episodes. In DEVIOUS MAIDS, I play a trophy wife married to a much older man who is insecure about her new husband's former wife and doesn't trust her newly-hired maid," Brown says. "I'm thrilled to move to Atlanta with my cast and get to really dive into such a fun role on a fabulous show. When I saw what Marc Cherry [DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES' showrunner] created with the final version of the pilot, I was blown away! I think fans are really going to be excited once it starts airing next spring on Lifetime!"
In the meantime, Brown can also be seen on HBO's TRUE BLOOD. "I have a small, recurring role this season, as well as next season," she says. "I play a fairy. They just aired my first episode [this past Sunday]."
Irna Phillips, considered by many to be the "queen" or "creator" of the daytime serial was born 111 years ago today. Below is an essay she wrote late in life about soap opera sharing lessons she learned from her many decades of experience in radio and television.
1. Escapism. While I reject the theory that the U.S. housewife is a downtrodden and unchallenged slave to her kitchen, I do recognize that her life, as all of ours, contains a degree of tedium and monotony. I think the soap opera listener, therefore, out to be given some insights into other lives and life-styles. She (or he) should be offered the chance to participate vicariously in problem solving, from minor matters such as how to settle a family quarrel to weightier issues such as crime, punishment, and retribution. The listener should be asked to think a little. With it all, there should be some means to achieve the second element:
2. Identification. It is a perilous practice among dramatic writers to allow their situations or characters to become too remote from the average listener. On AS THE WORLD TURNS, for example, I have tried to keep my characters on a life-size scale. They are well off, but not wealthy. They are average in intelligence. My villains (though I reject the concept of the totally irretrievable character) are never so villainous that the listener turns away in disgust. There must be that element of universality in everything - that something that causes the listener to say, "Yes, I have felt that way," or "I have known someone very much like that."
3. Conviction. I suppose there is a little of the evangelist in all of us, and I am no exception. I have always tried to impart a point of view to my stories, to carry a message, if you will, that I believe is important for the viewer to hear. It is not a heavy-handed message, I hope, but one that comes across only from prolonged exposure to a program like THE GUIDING LIGHT or AS THE WORLD TURNS.
What is the message? Nothing earthshaking. I have tried to let my programs convey my own faith in the family unit - not necessarily the unit of yesterday, but also the possible unit of today and tomorrow. I believe in a stable home, in healthy mental attitudes, in discipline, and in cooperation. The critics say, "But why then do soap operas convey such a sense of overwhelming tragedy, of lives gone wrong?" First of all, I don't believe they do; but as for the tragedy that is seen, I can only point out that unrelenting bliss can be (in dramatic terms) as tedious as unrelenting misery. It is true, however, that there is a school of serial writing that might be characterized as "never a dull moment." I try to leaven my story lines with problems of the sort anyone may encounter from time to time - some of us, to be sure, more often than others. These troubles, or tragedies, are a kind of crucible in which I try to expose the inner strengths and weaknesses of my characters. I ask myself what forms escapism should take - on television or in real life. Many people today simply do not want to face reality, and they look to television to escape it. I believe that answering their need is part of my mission as a writer.
Even Scheherazade must have felt that her storytelling was more than an exercise in lifesaving.
During the filming of Surface, she was fatigued. She went to several doctors, who prescribed antibiotics, vitamins and B12 shots. When the series wrapped up, Linsey came home to Tallahassee, where the family was living at the time. She still was exhausted.
After fainting three times in one week, the 17-year-old was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, a cancer of the lymphatic system. The diagnosis came just a day after Linsey got her first movie role.
But the movie had to wait. Instead of filming, Linsey started chemotherapy.
With a positive attitude about the 85 percent treatment success rate for Hodgkin's Lymphoma, Linsey chose not to be treated at a children's hospital. She felt guilty about getting well in front of kids who might not.
"DAYS OF OUR LIVES" was a category on Friday's episode of JEOPARDY! and a number of the show's stars appeared to give the clues.
Watch Joseph Mascolo (Stefano), Bryan Dattilo (Lucas), Galen Gering (Rafe), Kristian Alfonso (Hope), James Scott (EJ), Chandler Massey (Will), Christie Clark (Carrie) and James Reynolds (Abe) in the video below:
Mexico elected a new president yesterday. During his campaign, 42-year old Enrique Peña Nieto used his youth and good looks to his advantage, glossing over his political party's reputation of corruption and promising a new future for Mexico. His wife since 2010, the famous soap opera actress and singer Angelica Rivera, was instrumental in his campaign.
As a telenovela actress, Rivera was praised for her sun-kissed skin, long brown locks and sexy, voluptuous style in roles on shows like ALCANZAR UNA ESTRELLA II and MARIANA DE LA NOCHE.
Stand Up To Cancer Ambassador Alison Sweeney (DAYS OF OUR LIVES)will join Major League Baseball, Hall of Famer George Brett, former Royals Mike Sweeney and Jeff Montgomery, and American Idol winner David Cook to show her support for cancer research and education at the MLB All-Star Game Charity 5K & Fun Run presented by Nike taking place on Sunday, July 8 in downtown Kansas City’s Power and Light District.
Actor Andy Griffith, the man who played folksy Sheriff Andy Taylor in the fictional town of Mayberry in THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW, died Tuesday at the age of 86.

He passed away after an unspecified illness and "has been laid to rest on his beloved Roanoake Island," the family said in a statement.

Lee Meriwether (@LeeMeriwether)
Andy Griffith and I were acting partners who became close friends. We played husband and wife in the movie "Angel in my Pocket", a Musical Special together with Don Knotts and Janet Leigh, and then again as marrieds in the series, The New Andy Griffith Show.
For a time after, we corresponded back and forth in character. He, as a member of a group of teenage boys who had a fan club in his home town, and I chose to write as a sister who was part of Siamese twin tap dancing act. I saved his letters (they were cute and funny). I've often wondered if he had saved mine.
We talked on the phone through the years. With my daughters, Kyle and Lesley, we went to see him perform in Vegas. And he saw me doing the musical "Follies". Andy found the "perfect gal" as he said when he met Cindy. She was the perfect match for him. Caring, understanding, and devoted. My prayers are with her.
