Another bad promo

Yes inside the youtube description, it says: "Recorded at the Soap Operas in Popular Culture Conference". I looked that up and that was held Oct. 31 - Nov. 1, 2025. Here's the full blurb on the conference: https://bgindependentmedia.org/bgsu-announces-soap-operas-in-popular-culture-conference/

Victoria & Billy's daughter Katherine (known as "Katie") . . . (sometimes referred to as Katie Abbott, Katie Abbott Newman, or Katie Newman) has been played by Sienna Mercuri since 2016. IMDB erroneously lists the actress for Dec. 24, 2025 as "Sierra Mercier". But no! It's still Sienna Mercuri. Closing credits for Dec. 22, 2025 fyi @YRfan23

Johnny Abbott has been played by Paxton Mishkind since Sept. 8, 2022. https://www.instagram.com/p/CiQAMqJrTcV/ Paxton was a recast of Johnny, who was previously played by twins Holden and Ryan Hare. Perhaps the Hare twins were cast to resemble Billy Miller?

Kirsten Storms update

https://www.instagram.com/p/DSmDA2pDYW2/ December 22, 2025 kirstenstorms Seasons Greetings, my insta-friends!❤️ I hope everyone is enjoying the winter break with their family and loved ones. Although the cold weather has been met with a lot of complaining from me (to anyone around me), I’m kinda LOVING it. And I definitely freaked out at the sight of some *very small* snow flurries…that melted as soon as they touched…anything. Couldn’t get the smile off my face in that moment if I tried. 😁 (Don’t judge, I was born in Florida and moved to California). OKAY… I’ve received a lot of social media support on this subject, so I want to give an update on my medical situation. My last appointment was with a new Neurosurgeon in St Louis. He told me that I am in the “gray zone” for the aneurysm procedure. It’s not super small, but it’s not at the mandatory surgery size. Basically, I can keep monitoring it - or have the coiling done, BUT he told me I wasn’t in immediate/“OMG! it’s going to burst tomorrow!” kind of danger. Obvi, great news. 💁🏼‍♀️ Trying to see if I’m comfortable with the “wait and see if it gets worse” plan. I do know that I am not eager to hop right on the operating table. (Plz refer to my post in 2021, following my craniotomy. The pic of the back of my head will *possibly* convey why this topic is a little difficult for me to openly discuss. And of course there was that surgery back in Jan this year 🙅🏼‍♀️). So, as I sit in this “gray zone”, pondering my plan, I want you guys to know that I really do appreciate the messages and stories offered of your own experiences. I needed those….and I had no idea (weird how that works, right?). Super easy to be silly and have fun on these platforms, but getting deep about online rumors and my feelings about them? Hah….i’d rather switch to decaf coffee. (My psychologist would tell me that’s a clear example of “avoidance”.) Welp I’m out of jokes, so I’m gonna say 🎄HAPPY HOLIDAYS 🎄and maaaaybe you will be seeing me back in Port Charles soon. ✨🎅🏼✨

Others have guessed that it might be Jordi Vilasuso, so I looked for profile pics to compare... From his final Y&R episode April 19, 2022: from his instagram April 2024

screencap, and then lightened as suggested on other thread

Well my family put up the tree two days before Christmas -- ALWAYS! My parents always gradually introduced Christmas decorations to our home over the 4 weeks before Christmas... but the * Christmas tree * went up on December 23rd, always. The first few weeks of December were about "anticipation". Then we did "celebration" over the twelve days of Christmas! Lots of parties. We NEVER took the Christmas tree down before January 6th -- because it was still Christmas for us! It was forbidden to take it down before then! Always interesting to see different family traditions.
