Some people take their soap operas a little too seriously.

Actress Brittany Underwood, who plays Langston Wilde on ABC's "One Life to Live," had a cup of coffee dumped over her head outside an upper West Side Starbucks Wednesday afternoon.

A rep for the show tells us that a male stranger "approached her and said, 'Oh, excuse me, my bad,' and then poured the coffee over her."

Underwood had been on her way to meet cast members at a pre-Daytime Emmys party at Nikki Midtown. After she recovered from the shock, says the rep, she went to a friend's house to change clothes and wash her hair.

The bizarre incident took place outside Starbucks at 67th St. and Columbus Ave.

That is sad and pathetic.

I think Cady McClain was dead on with this too....you can hate characters that actors are paid to play....but don't hate on the actors.

I guess Britney (Portia Reiners) has some fans.

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

Wow. That is sad. Brittany should have laid a smackdown on his ass like Drake Hogestyn did to that guy.

ETA: Merged the threads, since jcar just pointed out there was a thread on page 2.

LOL WHA?

[Drew]

who is this girl??

[Angela]

I guess it's this chick (dark haired one), the girl that plays Starr's friend on OLTL... I had thought maybe it was the gal who played Starr's enemy.

Maybe the guy got a preview of the Musical thing they had today on OLTL and was upset? Heh.

I work right next door and run in Starbucks all the time and all OLTL cast runs in out of Starbucks all the time. OLTL studio is one street over.

Thats such a shame cause they are all extremely friendly

Some people (crazies IMO) have a really hard time differentiating "reel" life and "real" life. I think it's so bazarre how some actors are treated simply because fans mistake them for the characters they portray on tv.

[All My Shadows]

See, this type of thing wouldn't be so bad if it was 30-50 years ago, back when many people really did not know anything about the actors and actresses and only saw them as their characters. Susan Lucci almost got her ass kicked in 1973 because an old lady didn't like Erica having an abortion.

And don't even get me started on Eileen Fulton in the 1960s. People sent her death threats through fan mail!

[MoTheGreat]

Maybe he likes Britney & Don't like how Langston give Britney a hard time.

[Adam]

Some people are psychos. God the poor girl.

[Matt P.]

Is she okay because that could have seriously hurt her! Now that I know that OLTL cast members go there...I know where I'm going on my next NYC stop!

That coffee could have been scalding hot, and like someone pointed out, she could have been seriously burned.

I still recall reading an incident where someone approached Don Diamont and punched his lights out some years back..
