Saw this on another board

According to the latest issue of CBS SID Y&R is casting the role of Adriana, who's described as an 18-20 year old Hispanic female. The role is recurring, the character is a singer and comes to town harboring a secret.

The "secret," of course, being that she's Ricky fraternal twin sister and Paul's long-lost daughter.

Can she be living with an Uncle played by A Martinez?

Not very excited about the singer part but good to see right away they have been starting on diversifying Y&R.

Please no Brittany Underwood though

Well, keep in mind these casting call scripts are often different from what the character ends up becoming - they could make her a stereotypical maid named Consuela after all...

She'll probably be Noah's next girlfriend.

Noah dating a Hispanic maid? This, I have to see.

If MAB was still in the house, I bet America Ferrera woulda' been the one.

There would've been no hispanic character if MAB was involved.

What happened to the new black male they were casting? That seems forgotten. And for all the initial talk of boosting the African-Americna base prior to introducing a hispanic family, they haven't made any progress. They never use Sarge, Harmony is on the way out, there is no talk of a Devon storyline either. That leaves just Lily and Neil isolated by themselves.

Sarge mentioned his "dead" brother to Jack the other day, which in soap parlance screamed, "He's not really dead!" I automatically assumed he was the new black male character they were auditioning for (i.e., the scenes with Lily at Jabot).

That leaves just Lily and Neil isolated by themselves.

Considering that CK isn't leaving, though, perhaps that is for the best?

I'm sure the mess with CK pushed the character back. She was bragging on twitter about long overdue story coming up for herself so he may be appearing soon enough. As for Devon he's a music producer so if new hispanic girl is a singer than he'll be involved in her storyline. And I think I read Neil is supposed to be involved in an up and coming business storyline.

Or the new Sonny Corinthos for Y&R

IOW, don't worry, folks: Josh and Jill will get that Black story up and pumping again.

Or should I say, tienda y moverse con fuerza?

Please no Brittany Underwood though

She just played an 18 year old on her way to becoming The Popstar so a 20 year old isn't far out of the realm.

If they're raiding from their summer sensation then her other option would be Ashley Holliday. If either is picked then the movement for a second season loses air and Eddie/Loren fans will be devastated but maybe not since they are certain it's going to happen no matter what. Either ending up on the show and opposite Noah would create quite the dynamic--especially AH. You;d have girlfriend on that show turned sister on this and sister on that show turned girlfriend on this.

So you don't care for Brittany Underwood?
