Ever Met A Soap Star?

Featured Replies

Being in New York, I do occasionally see an actor here or there on the street, but I never have the guts to say anything. That's mostly because they're not from my shows, so it's not very important to me. In the past I've met:

Nicholas Coster (Eduardo, ATWT)

Hayley Barr (Courtney, ATWT)

Amelia Marshall (Gilly, GL)

Jordana Brewster (Nikki, ATWT)

I used to spot Paul Leyden from ATWT on a regular basis. I think I worked right next to where he lived at the time. I was always too nervous to speak to him!

I spotted Michael Easton from OLTL while shopping earlier in the year, when I also saw Robin Strasser on different occasions. I probably wind up in her neighborhood in my local travels. Tuc Watkins on the subway too. I tried to wait on line for tickets to The View last year, and Bobbie Eakes from AMC walked out of the studio to the hot dog stand in curlers! That same day, Cameron Mathison walked by, very incognito in sunglasses.

And you? :D

I've met Austin Peck, Christie Clark, Jacob Young and Colin Egglesfield.

I met Austin at a fan event, Christie on the set of SoapTalk (my friend exec produced it), Jacob on a NYC street and Colin at a restaurant that my friend and I were dining at.

I saw Martha Byrne walk into a store I worked at looking for baby products when she was pregnant. I think it was 2001 or 2002. I walked around and looked at her and I was deifnetly sure it was her. I didnt approach her though even though I could have

I know it's not a meeting, but I forgot the time a few years ago when I realized I was walking behind Julianne Moore. She's really tiny.

AMC's Jeff Branson (who hugged me after I said I like Jonathan better and Ryan this was when he was taping his shows and wasn't on air yet)

OLTL's John Paul Lavosiare (sp) (Rex)

GH's Mufundo Morrison (ex-Justis) and Matt Marriachi (ex-Jesse, who took a picture with me. He told me Kirsten Storms [Maxie] is a sweetheart.)

Kathy Brier (Marcie) and I sat in the shot of her talking to some of the fans (I was wearing an orange love is war shirt)

I saw OLTL's Kamar De Los Reys but but not up close and I am not a fan of him.

This was all at Fun In the Sun in Philadelphia, PA. I have pictures somewhere. I'll post them later.

I also saw Jason Winston George (Micheal, Sunset Beach) at NBC10's Fit Fest but didn't talk to him.

I once flew on the same flight as Frank Runyeon (ex-Steve Andropoulos, ATWT) and his wife. I knew it was him, but I didn't want to do the typical fangurly thing - plus, he might not have been the type to appreciated public attention - so, instead, I managed to get next to him at the baggage carousel, then said, in an almost hushed tone, "Steve Andropoulos, right?"

He nodded his head, then laughed.

It's always been my dream, though, to meet Michael Tylo and Lisa Brown (ex-Quint and Nola, respectively, GL).

The only soap star I've met is Scott Reeves (ex-Ryan, Y&R) at a store opening. This was back in the Nina/Ryan days.

At the risk of being branded an obssessed soap nut and now that the statute of limitations has run out, I'll admit to stealing the air valve cap from Lois Kibbee's car tire when she was stopped at a NJ ice cream parlor back in the late seventies.

Nice topic, but let's dish what we all REALLY want to know:

Who here has ever HAD SEX with a soap star?! :)

Does having sex with the son of a soap star count?

  • Member

DISH! WHO was it?! And what was his role in the relationship? And how was it? And did the hot soap hunk dad ever find out?!
