I hope Shannon Kane is free. She'd make a great Lily.

Frankly, after CK, I'd take even Cassi Davis from "House of Payne" as nuLily.

Sounds like a Sophia recast to me.

That's what I was thinking. Frankly I'm not sure I'd describe Lily as vivacious or ambitious, no matter who's playing her.

No, Sofia needs to die.

Is she mid 20's though? The actress that plays her looks damn near 40. I wouldn't describe the character as "sexy" either.

Julia Pace Mitchell actually is only about 27...

Julia Pace Mitchell looks 43 and not a good 43 at that.

I hope it's a Lily recast, what a dream that would be!

Damn! Does sound like Sophia! JFP came in and saw her size and knew she Julia had to go. That's how Jill is.

Julia's only 27? She sure doesn't look like it. I always thought she was in her 30s at least. Well, I guess this could be a Sofia recast then.

And if so, it's not as if Jill's wrong. Sophia's a horrendous character and Julia isn't exciting to watch.

those of you enjoying my optimism for long-term success with Y&R...let's all roll around in the warm gooey goodness of positivity

I hope she's at least dark skinned like Julia. Don't wish to see another high yella valley girl masquerading as a black person.

They could always cast Raven Symone.

Raven's net worth is estimated at $50mil. Doubt she would come to Daytime.

Glad to here Y&R is beefing up the AA presence on the show, of course this also sounds like this could be a Lily recast.

It doesn't matter if they're only there to be tokens.

It has to be Sophia. MAB wanted to get rid of Lily, then Cane, but Sony wouldn't let her.

It would make sense to me if last casting call was for a Devon re-cast and this one for Sophia so they can pair them. Sophia was #2 at McCall Unlimited and Devon is heir to the throne. There will be lots of conflict for Neil with his adopted son if Devon/Sophia become an couple since Sophia is his son's mother. If they kill off Tucker there will be plenty for those three to battle over, and a black family will finally own multi-national corporation instead of just work for one. It's just possible that they are making good moves.

Ooooohhhhh Catty! Your post made me all warm and fuzzy inside. A black family battling over a conglomerate? Suddenly, I have a tingling sensation.
