I read it elsewhere (and I wish I could give them credit, but I know how forums are), but did you all hear that Sabine Singh hopped on an X/Space and spilled tea on her time on AMC? Supposedly, the following was said: 

  • Sabine auditioned for a character named Sarah and didn’t find out she was replacing Greenlee until after she was hired. She freaked out because Greenlee was such an important role.
  • She and Alicia Minshew worked crazy hours (ranging from filming from morning to almost midnight) every workday. Sabine would sneak and sleep in her dressing room to prevent having to commute. Susan Lucci refused to do that and only filmed once a week (doing 9 episodes that day).
  • She hated the Aiden/Greenlee pairing. Allegedly, Turner was a drunk and on drugs. No one wanted to be paired with him b/c he wasn't professional. Allegedly, this is how Kelli Giddish wiggled out her contract.
  • Said he once scolded her and said, “Be quiet before I shove my d*ck in your mouth,” and the entire set went silent. TPTB was brought in; however, b/c the pairing was popular, no punishment occurred. 
  • Budig was asked back numerous times. Budig wanted to make it in LA until she couldn't and agreed to return. 
  • Sabine/RB had the same manager, who was secretly negotiating on RB's behalf (wasn't it M*chael B*uno)? She was fired over the phone by the agent and Julie Hannan Carruthers. Carruthers asked if Sabine was still coming to work her last tape weeks and whether she wanted a cake.
  • Sabine threw a fit on the on first day back on set after being fired. Said TK got wind and rallied the cast behind Sabine. She got nice gifts from Thorsten & Cameron. 
  • She didn't get to say farewell to the cast as they made her shoot late on her last day.
  • The “real Greenlee” promo hurt, but she was more upset by Brian Frons publicly saying she couldn’t act or fit in Rebecca Budig’s "Manolos." Thorsten sent her a note with the coat he’d given her saying she may not fit Rebecca’s shoes, but that coat would always be hers.
  • Learned that Brian Frons blocked her from an Emmy nomination when her name appeared on the pre-nomination ballots by threatening the cast not to vote for her.
  • Once ABC got rid of Frons, he tried reaching out to Singh via LinkedIn but she blocked him. 

SN: I think it might be true as the host of a soap space on X thanked her. 

She was done so wrong on AMC. I really liked her Greenlee, and it's a damn shame all of this was happening. Shocked, yet not shocked about Aiden Turner, as the same time, too.

Thank you for transcribing all this tea and tagging me @NothinButAttitude . She certainly didn't hold back. I was not even really watching AMC at that time but even then, I knew her treatment was incredibly shabby. I'm glad she blocked Frons.

No problem! I am glad she blocked Frons, too. I am not surprised he spent years post-ABC trying to make amends for his decades of being heinous to folks.

That is wild shít. Happy holidays, everyone!

Right! I am trying to find the audio for it b/c I wanna confirm it, but where I read it and the poster who posted it, is normally credible. Again, I wish the audio would pop up to support what was said, but I believe it. Plus we have the "Space" owner tweeting her and telling ppl to follow.

Sorry for forgetting to tag you, @Liberty City! I was trying to remember as many people as possible. I liked her as Greenlee, too. I felt she humanized the character again after she spent years of being a pain and Ryan apologist.

Thank you for reminding me of this. This just further confirms that the tea is true.

@NothinButAttitudeThank you for tagging me! That is not surprising, but disappointing to read. Sounds like an absolute disaster which we could all suspect from watching around that time.

You're welcome!

Rebecca Budig is the only Greenlee I knew in watching AMC but, in seeing clips online, Sabine Singh was one of the better recasts I've seen in daytime. And she was done horribly from point A to point Z. She really sold the role of Greenlee in a light for which I could have seen Budig in the role, but also in ways I wouldn't have seen had Budig been in the role... if that makes sense?

It makes sense. I do hate that Sabine didn't get snagged for another soap. Now she would've been an excellent Michelle Bauer recast on GL

If TPTB wanted Michelle to come back under recast, yes, Singh would have been a solid choice... but also would have been a laugh in her face to replace Budig (again) in some kind of way. She did do OLTL for four episodes in 2010 as "Wendy," and that was it.

I get the desire to return the original actor into the role... but the fact in which it was from, from Singh's on-set treatment to the promotional campaign, was downright nasty.

Holy [!@#$%^&*] this is all piping hot tea.

That’s awful Sabine had that experience and AT, JHC and Brian Frons should all be ashamed of themselves.

I hated Sabine as Greenlee though and was glad when Rebecca came back. 💀 That Spike kidnapping story with the “apologies my darling” song playing every episode was one of the worst in soap history. Just absolute torture for months on end and Sabine and Alicia’s hammy acting was too much.

@NothinButAttitude Thanks for the tag. I believe her. I came too late to hear the audio but Sabine did an interview long ago where she spoke about how horrible her last week was. Something about vomiting in buckets between takes. And this is not the first time I heard something creepy about Mr. Turner.

I wasn't crazy about her performance but I did enjoy her chemistry with Aidan.

Wisner Washam is probably the best head writer All My Children had whose name wasn't Agnes or Lorraine.

Yes! I truly love his writing. He did some amazing stories.
