Could be, but ive heard/read her talk about it before and it sounds like it was a contract, because in one interview i remember her saying she didnt understand why her agent wanted her to pick a series that may not make it over a sure thing on a soap opera (ha, good agent. sad but true).

Crazy tho to think that shes now nominated for a Golden Globe and getting Oscar buzz.

Brett Claywell Originally was cast As Schyler Joplin But Became Kyle Lewis Instead On OLTL. Scott Clifton Became Schyler But according To Brett In An Interview with Scott Evans & Michael Fairman That He Taped Two Episodes as Schuyler Before the change was made

Similar situation with Ashton Kutcher who was also tapped for that Bo Derek primetime soap set in Hawaii, Wind on Water. He of course went with TSS instead (very good move).

I knew folks who knew AF before she left the east coast for SuBe, her nikname was "The Sunset Bitch". She of course got rather quickly replaced, but she landed on her feet over at B&B.

I wonder how fans would have taken to IK as Gloria. I think she has a similar frenetic energy that JVA brought to the role, but less subdued. The things I've seen people criticize JC about I think they would have been even more critical of IK if she played Gloria anything like Rox.

Regarding Labine & Kristen at "Guiding Light," maybe Labine wanted Kristen in as a Selina recast? There was the whole Patti D'Arbville drama in the press where she claimed Labine wanted her out. Plus, the show still introduced Gus Aitoro, who was obviously Selina's son. In one episode, Buzz even confronted Gus on whether or not he was Selina's son and I'm pretty sure that was well after D'Arbville had left the show. I wonder if Labine wanted Ilene Kristen to play Selina after bouncing D'Arbville.
