Members Southern Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Y&R is looking to cast an African-American actress in her thirties in the role of an associate to Vance. Her description according to SOD twitter: "A shark who is aggressive,out for blood" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Um, you spelled "beautiful, Caucasian woman between the ages of 25-35" wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 LMAO! I wouldnt be surprised if this were a recast for Sophia. Watch them get someone thinner and lighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I was hoping they was aging Lily. This person sound like she can be Dru real daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Why is it that the only view they have of a black woman is that she is "sassy" or "out for blood"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I don't have any problem with that. It beats some cookie cutter borefest character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Is Sofia really more interesting than any cookie cutter characters? When a character is poorly planned out and written, a description doesn't matter. Just look at when they kept trying to tell us Eva Marcile's character was the new Dru.

Members soapfan770 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 *GASP* Another minority hiring on Y&R? Did hell freeze over again? I myself like Sofia but you know the writing is so weak and their extremely lame attempt at trying to do a Neil/Sofia/Malcolm triangle is horrific and boring. She has the potential to be a firecracker but is restrained by coma-inducing story. Forget the dullard Winters bros and that sorry thing that is allegedly Dru's daughter the real stories are with Devon, Roxanne, Sofia, Olivia, and Nate Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 Especially when it doesn't make sense for someone like Neil to be drawn to a full-figured gal like Sofia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 The actress playing Sofia can't act which is the problem. At 25 she's also way too young for the role. THey needed someone like Vivica A Fox or Amelia Marshall for that role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Money Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 Damn. I had no idea the actress was 25. She looks much older. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a recast since YR can't have more than one AA girl on the show because we all know Lily ain't Black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 same here as theres no way in hell she's 25. That sounds like her Hollywood age. Girlfriend looks like she's at least in her 30s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 Looks like they are still trying to get the "black storyline" going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted October 17, 2010 Members Share Posted October 17, 2010 I'm not so sure about that. Neil has lost a wife and is a recovering alcoholic. It makes sense to me that he wouldn't be the typical superficial assh*le. Now, if Jack was attracted to Sophia or if Billy started dating an overweight girl I'd be surprised.
