GIROLAMO OUT! After months of deliberation, The World Of Oakdale has finally sent one Oakdale teen packing. Karl Girolamo, who plays the recurring role of "Kevin Davis" on As The World Turns and the contract role of "Heath Clayborn" on The World Of Oakdale, has been let go according to a show spokesperson. Heath, who came to town with his traveling businessman father, soon found himself face to face with his childhood sweetheart, "Maddie Coleman". The two started regaining ground, but the jealousy of Maddie's crush, Luke Snyder, soon smashed a huge dent in their relationship. "Heath felt like he was in the middle of this huge love circus," says Girolamo.

Viewers may be confused by the fact that someone is leaving so early for college, but according to setside sources, that will be addressed. Girolamo's last air date is July 3rd.

"The new role of 'Jason' is going to be in his early twenties. He lives a very complicated and hectic life and comes to Oakdale hoping to escape all of that." LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD! POST A COMMENT AND LET TPTB KNOW WHO YOU THINK MIGHT COULD POSSIBLY PLAY THE ROLE OF "JASON"!! WITHOUT INPUT, THERE'S NO CHANCE THE CHARACTER WILL EVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY!
