Drama, do you own his CD?

[Clear Drama]

There's a lease w/ my signature, AMC is just borrowing him.

[EricMontreal22]

HAHAHA nonono, I mean his brief attempt at a music career.... Horrible quality but this is all I could find (remember when he sang on AMC during the height of the babyswitch story? )

Really whoever was his A&R shoulda pushed his music into a gay camp dance/pop direction... Then maybe I would have bought it as a guilty pleasure at least.

LMAO he tried. That was so teeny bopper days, I don't fault him, you don't leave money on the table. But thank god it was just a phase, he can sing but an album no.

[EricMontreal22]

He undeniably has enough talent (and looks) to make it as a popstar. I'm not sure if he co wrote his stuff or not, but I think it was wrong to take him in the calypso pop direction that lasted for about 3 months, and he was a year late, but...

[Clear Drama]

The thing is he was more pop/rock, techno was the way to go those days. It could be worse I mean I did see Budig sing one day at a bar.

[EricMontreal22]

Well that's exactly what I meant--he shoulda gone in a dancier direction, he'd at least get his gay fanbase anyway, but I think he saw his music as more "legit" than that.

Umm what was Budig singing? Was this a drunk karaoke night?

[Adam]

She's Having Mah Baby....

[Clear Drama]

Those gay fans will always follow JY, in hopes one day he switches teams.

Budig was singing and she was there w/ EH and BG, they told me I just missed JY that day. I still to this day don't know if they were joking, she was singing some pop/rock song, EH sang "Ooops I did it again" and guys were clapping to it. It was a normal Friday.

[EricMontreal22]

Sounds like my normal Fridays too

JY is doign the last ABC Broadway Cares thing isn't he?

[Clear Drama]

Yup.

ABC SN Broadway Cares thing *honestly don't know who's going*

[bellcurve]

People said that about Clay Aiken too.

Blind Item: Which ABC soap is currently renegotiating the contracts of 5 big money actors to save money? The interesting part. ABC has threatened immediate termination if the actors go public in the way that Eric Braeden did. Any guesses?

[AllMyDaysatGH]

YIKES!! Would be very interesting if that was AMC, "big money" actors, I'd say Rebecca Budig, Cameron Mathison, Susan Lucci, & Alicia Minshew for sure somewhere in there.

[Clear Drama]

I'd think those but then remember RB/CM reportedly refused to take paycuts. Minshew I could see renegotiating a buy out. Her family is in NYC, she wants to come home.

So.. I guess BE/AM/DM/VI/RPG or MEK? I don't think JY is in the "big money" list. I think he's walking end of contract to a better offer. I think Debbie is a goner, Vincent may be, Bobbie IDK why she's still here.
