She was on set in May 2021 to film this B&B villains promotion for Australian TV, which was just released July 3: https://www.facebook.com/Channel10/videos/1490315834680734/

Oh yes I totally agree. I think that tweet was simply pointing out that not only does Y&R blatantly ignore the Mariah/Tessa relationship all year long, they didn't even show them during June.

Karla Mosley is due to give birth July 5th. It would be her call as to how/when/where she starts working again.

Another tweet from Ronan Farrow about the same article: https://twitter.com/RonanFarrow/status/1411269406177599491 “I helped a corrupt family seize all this control.” We investigated the Britney Spears conservatorship for months. Here’s the story, by @jiatolentino and me: https://www.newyorker.com/news/american-chronicles/britney-spears-conservatorship-nightmare Intro from The New Yorker about the same article: https://twitter.com/NewYorker/status/1411460672798564354On the eve of her recent court hearing, Britney Spears called 911 to report herself as a victim of conservatorship abuse. @RonanFarrow and @jiatolentino investigate how Spears was stripped of her rights within an underregulated part of the legal system. https://www.newyorker.com/news/american-chronicles/britney-spears-conservatorship-nightmare This instagram post is from the co-author Jia Tolentino (instagram account name is jiatortellini) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ3R_wCjKWA/ jiatortellini For months, @ronanfarrow and I have been investigating the Britney Spears conservatorship — the piece, which follows her from teenage superstardom to the 911 call she placed the day before she gave her court testimony, is up at @newyorkermag now. The level of scrutiny, projection, overwork and control that Britney endured as normal long before the conservatorship would crumple any of us in a day; the way her experience of young motherhood was used as a bludgeon against her, by the press and her family, to push her into breakdown and then force her compliance, will never leave me. I hope this piece makes her strength that much clearer, and I hope you’ll read ⚡️ Instagram post from The New Yorker (instagram account name newyorkermag) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ3VHY0g4wC/ newyorkermag Verified Since the establishment of Britney Spears’s conservatorship, she has released four albums, headlined a global tour that grossed $131 million, and performed in a hit Las Vegas residency—all while having virtually no say over her life. For 13 years, her father and a team of lawyers have controlled Spears’s spending, communications, and personal decisions. “I thought we were helping,” a former friend of the family said, about testifying to secure the conservatorship. “I wasn’t, and I helped a corrupt family seize all this control.” At the link in our bio, @RonanFarrow and @jiatortellini report on the legal entity that stripped Spears of her rights, and on the pop star’s fight for freedom. --------------------------- If you are having trouble accessing the Britney article in the New Yorker by Ronan Farrow and Jia Tolentino, here is an archived copy: https://archive.is/9RCqn

These two headlines are currently next to one another on the front page of the Washington Post website (from my desktop computer view): "Facing delta variant wave with few vaccine doses, African countries suffer — and seethe with anger." "America forgot how to make proper pie. Can we remember before it’s too late?" (The second one is an opinion column. But still ...) The juxtaposition of these two titles ... kind of says something about society, as well as about the media. Why the f*ck are opinion columns on the front page of all web editions of newspapers? I find it so annoying.

Aaron D. Spears! Finally getting a storyline. It might not last long, I dunno, but I'll enjoy him while I can.

Regarding Rashad's horrible tweet ... "Bye, Phylicia" is trending

I heard the same. And yet during the DiMera board meeting stuff (June 24, 25, 28) Peter was mentioned and phoned in his vote. And they actually had Jake say this: Writers throwing shade at "nobody ever talks about him for some reason"

Carson Boatman said on his instagram that he thinks his first airdate is in August.

^ June 24, 2021 WHO briefing. Very informative

Not yet, she is ...

EW says that Naomi Matsuda will play Finn's mother "Li". EW, IMDB, and several other websites are *erroneously* stating that Matsuda played Tori Narita (Paul's mother) on Days. But Matsuda never aired. Matsuda was cast as Tori, and began fiming in the role, and was in NBC spoiler pics, but she never aired. The role was recast shortly after she began filming. She never appeared on Days. Tori Narita was played by Hira Ambrosino during the entirety of the character's run on air.

Despite IMDB, her website, and recent publication/website articles - Naomi Matsuda did NOT appear on Days. She was cast in the role of Tori Narita (Paul's mother) and appeared in some publicity shots, and filmed some episodes, but was replaced in the role before the character ever aired. Hira Ambrosino is the only actress who ever aired in the role of Tori Narita. I remember the confusion at the time - NBC even released some spoiler pics with Matsuda- but Matsuda never aired. I don't know why her IMDB says she aired, because she never aired.

I just stumbled upon this tweet and immediately came here to post it, LOL.

Correct. Precious Way's casting on "Partners in Rhyme" was announced in September 2020. https://deadline.com/2020/09/partners-in-rhyme-precious-way-mc-lyte-umc-1234568394/

A Leslie Brooks mention! Fri June 4th US episode,. Victor gave Nikki tickets to see Leslie Brooks perform piano concerto #3 live in Florence, Italy! No word yet if Leslie will appear onscreen. And ... she's Theo's biological half-aunt. Theo is in Paris. Wonder if he'll visit Florence to meet his aunt Leslie? Leslie last appeared in March 2018 for the Walnut Grove reunion.

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2021/may/31/were-not-the-good-guys-osaka-shows-up-problems-of-press-conferences Quoting part of that opinion column: On Monday night, after being fined and threatened with expulsion, Osaka quit the tournament altogether. Meanwhile her stance has been universally scorned by the print media, who as we know have traditionally been the best people to judge standards of behaviour. An “uppity princess”, one newspaper columnist wrote. Others have more soberly pointed out that for any athlete, facing the media is simply part of the job, and that by seceding from the process entirely Osaka is setting a “dangerous precedent”. At this point, it’s worth considering exactly what this “danger” consists of. All over the world, the free press is already under unprecedented assault from authoritarian governments, tech giants and online disinformation. In many countries journalists are literally being killed for doing their job. Meanwhile in Paris, tennis journalists are facing the prospect of having to construct an article entirely from their own words. One of these things is not like the others. End quote.

I never felt that way about EJ. I always loathed the character. I wanted him to lose and die.
