Members DeeeDee Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 MTS's last return she gave an interview where she was showing her diva ways. Comments like "Alot of people ar emad I'm back" and "The fans did not give a damn about Diane Jenkins" Exactly. Someone who repeatedly uses the fans to keep their job as a way to avoid taking a paycut they know they have to take & constantly pushing for pairings they want but know will never happen isn't crazy?

Members MoTheGreat Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 I remember seeing an interview with Elizabeth Hubbard from As The World Turns and she wanted to ad lib a spit take, but stated that she cleared it with the actor first and he said okay. Was Stafford's action racist? I think race motivated some of it, as well as overall ego that actors have. I said this on the board awhile back, but a lot of times when a black person walks into a working environment and behaves as if they are just as good their white counterparts, that's going to be a problem for some white people. I think some viewers believe VR & the rest of the black cast memeber shpould go with the flow & keep their mouth shut too. & that's why they like to say VR is crazy.

Members DeeeDee Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 Since nothing is ever racist Kristoff should hit Billy Miller & see how many people defend him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 If they're going to call her crazy, I want some concrete examples. Some anecdotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that. Otherwise they would say Kristoff is crazy too (which they haven't). It's something else but they will never admit to it. If they're going to call her crazy, I want some concrete examples. Some anecdotes. You will never get them. These are the same stans who harass Sharon Case in real life over her character on a tv show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 VR isn't the only one who has gotten the crazy label. Robin Strasser and Kim Zimmer have both been called crazy at some point in time. Maybe there is some racial influence on calling her out that way, but I tend to believe she's been called crazy because she's a female than because she's African American. If Eric Braeden were a white female, I'm sure he'd be referred to as crazy also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he should spit on Nick. Or anybody up Phylis ass like Ronan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 Robin Strasser and Kim Zimmer have both been called crazy at some point in time. And yet for Strasser & Zimmer's supposed "crazy" fans had nothing to say about their returns to their shows. Maybe he should spit on Nick. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 Maybe he should spit on Nick. Joshua Morrow...How I would like to see that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 They should all start spitting at each other. Should make for interesting TV. Wasn't Eric Braeden pissed when Heather Tom slapped him in a scene and made sure that never happened with anyone again? That's a shame. That is easily one of the coolest things Victoria ever did.

Victoria Rowell left Y&R voluntarily. Strasser was fired and Zimmers show was cancelled. I guess your insinuating folks don't want VR back. I've seen a ton of fan support for her.

Members DeeeDee Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 Strasser was fired and Zimmers show was cancelled. For all their "crazy diva antics" Strasser & Zimmer (along with Elizabeth Hubbard) were never said to be "disruptive" or that they had burned their bridges & should never return. In fact fans laughed or ignored their actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 Kristoff should hit Billy Miller after a scene. The ratings would go through the roof. Honestly, that would be great. I would edit the moment out and replay it over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
