As bougie as CKLily is, though, I'd have to question whether that neighborhood was truly rough.

Lol I'm laughing thinking of that epi of the George Lopez show where they were gonna move to Colorado or some place like that because the town was safer than LA when all the kids in that town did was drink and steal and hookup because the town was so boring there was nothnig else to do!

In the black community they are both Icons.

But Mo there can be only one BLACK one.

Those are the rules.

Another question, where did the information that CK doesn't want to have a black love interest come from? Is it just rumor and speculation, or does it come from a legit source? When she was replaced by the other actress, did the character have a romance with a black character during that time?

They was going to hook the recast Lily up with a black guy because they felt her, Lily was to ghetto for white guys.

You're right. I take that comment back. Rowell and Morgan are both phenomenal actresses who have made significant contributions to daytime in their own right.

Cool. We're good. Sorry if I came off as salty. I've just seen too many manufactured battles between minority actors/characters. AMC's Hubbards vs Fryes for example or the OLTL Van/REG v. Tea/FL bullshit.

It might have been fun to see DSLily hook up with a buttoned-down honky, though.

Personally, I think Cane needs Davetta type of Lily. Davetta Lily came off as Amber, Chloe, or those type of females.

That ain't the honky I was talking about. The only thing Cane needs is a pine box and a plot at the cemetery.

ahaaa, why your prejudice against Cane. See I thought he was interesting opposite of Amber and Chloe. I just hate when people say Davetta did good opposite of MG. She won't be ass good opposite DG like CK. But to me as long as DS can keep him interesting, she already accomplish what CK could never do.

I can't lie Cane wa smore interesting with Amber. Now he is beyond horrible and needs to die for real.

Lily's only been with white men in her decade on the show because that's the way Y&R and Sony like it. I doubt CK went to anyone and said "I only do white dudes, ya dig?" but I also doubt she's upset over it (unlike VR who would probably b<div style="display:none;"></div>itch if Dru was only paired with white men and I love her for it).

They throw a wife at Neil every few years to appease The Black Audience (and can I just say I love the idea of a plus-sized black woman on Y&R just NOT that untalented thing with no personality they hired...seriously, what the hell? Between her and Symphony or Mahogany or whatever her name is on GH, it's just embarrassing). I didn't start watching Y&R because Shemar is hot (he's so not my type) I didn't stop watching Y&R because Dru died, I stopped watching Y&R because it got stupid.

Victoria Rowell is much more of an icon than Debbi Morgan.

Slow down there, champ...

The first time I saw Sofia I fist palmed, it was a "ISWYDT". We have this strong black audience at home, let's give them a "*REAL*" black woman that they can all love and adore and identify with and be appeased by. Just, NO. A Sofia Sophia is great on the canvas, but you must give us our Shug too... our Dominique Deveraux (OUR DRU!), if you will. This is a soap opera. Would any American soap opera let Nikki Blonsky be their sole white romantic lead?

Fair or unfair, CK's Lily is a non-factor in the above argument due to a set of issues previously discussed in this thread.

You'd be surprised.

And yet never once since Dru's death have any of his love interests (besides an extremely brief fling with Ashley) been white.

I believe this hissy fit she was having, talking about she thought she was important to the show. That she'll be able to get what she wants. Got something to do with the new casting call for the Black Guy. If he's Devon or not, she knows he's going to be her new love interest sooner or later. It could also be about Dru coming back.
