WTF!!!!!

EXCLUSIVE: Here is a great holiday gift for soap fans: I’ve learned that Prospect Park has revived its plan to continue cancelled ABC daytime dramas All My Children and One Life To Live online. I hear the company behind USA hit Royal Pains has inked deals with SAG-AFTRA and DGA for the soaps’ production, eyed to begin in the first quarter of 2013.

Hahahaha! She's just like Sarah Jessica Parker. Neigh!

Wow. I guess it's true what they say about women and how they can act towards other women.

What was she modeling? Homes?

LMAO.

Actually, with a good casting director (no clue about this one) I'd say it's a fairly decent 50/50 ratio. Obviously the bad ones really stand out, so we remember them, but even going back (when, granted they did have a better ratio of hiring talent over perfect looks), the issue still existed.

Off the top of my head both Genie Francis and Michael E Knight were pro teen models pre their soap work. (Knight--not sure about Francis--had done theatre school, etc too but that wasn't where he was hired from). Maybe this miss hair model has done theatre training too--a lot of them had (I think Josh Duhamel had actually). It's not too uncommon

A lot of soap actors that people consider good were models. People like Michelle Stafford, Sharon Case, Victoria Rowell, Lynn Herring, and Ian Buchanan were all models before they got soaps. Kristina Wagner too but I'm not sure anyone would consider her very good.

My point is- don't judge her just because she's a model. She might turn out to great.

Oh, please Eric. While I don't agree that SJP is ugly, let's not pretend like we haven't done our fair of bashing actors. Papa, don't preach.

Oh, no. I love me some SJP.

Unfortunately I'm all too familiar.

But what was that mug selling? Power suits, maybe?

Oh come on. Even some men thinks she looks like a horse. Talking about SJP and SH. Geez.

You all are really pushing my goddamn buttons the past few weeks.

Oh, and Soapboy. I wasn't talking to you. [!@#$%^&*] board has been multi-quoting.

LOL I have no clue, but I wouldn't find it that out of place to flip through an early 90s magazine and see an add with one of those pics.

Alicia M and whateverhernameis who played Gloria on AMC were both models for Tampax

She's going to have to be Meryl Streep for me to accept her in the role, considering she is 100% physically wrong for it.

The !@#$%^&*] you say? "Physically wrong for it," doctor? Okay, because I've never heard of a young woman who loses her baby weight or in Destiny's case, childhood baby fat as she grows up and comes into her as an adult woman. Women never lose weight, right? Or are we just talking about black women on TV?

And keep talking [!@#$%^&*] about Susan Haskell with a bunch of shallow, juvenile japes. That'll really make us all take your grievance serious.

Oh, no. I love me some SJP.

Me too- haters to the left!

Right, for a long time--going back into the 60s (though, again, I do think it's worse now) a LOT of TV actors broke in through modelling. A *lot* of the vintage movie stars, who didn't come from a theatre background, likewise were discovered modelling--the list there would be just too long to make.

Yes, women lose their weight but the "curviness" (for lack of a better word) was a part of Destiny's character. And I don't understand why soaps (and TV in general) cannot just have real looking women. I understand they wanted to age Destiny (though I don't necessarily think it was the best idea), but I find it a tad suspicious that they did so with a very skinny, "pretty", light-skinned woman. And y'all know I'm usually last to call racism, but this is shady as !@#$%^&*] and I think you know that.

Not to change the subject, lol....

Yep. Same here. This is one of the few times that I've actually played the race card on here.

I wouldn't know. I don't go around asking people how ugly they find other people or enjoy gossiping about it (which is one reason I stay out of a lot of the conversation about Starr's actress). I know that sounds high and mighty, but I just don't enjoy it. Sae with on comedy tv shows that mock celebs, etc--I know it's a fuzzy line but I'm fine with them mocking some hideous dress they wear to an awards show, some horribly stupid comment or action they do, or even when they continuously get terrible plastic surgery, otherwise it just rubs me the wrong way and I'd rather avoid it.

You're 100% right.

I work around models all day long and I would bet 75% of them are trying to break into acting and are taking theatre classes and studying. They just use modelling as a way to get their foot in the door.

Why aren't you guys discussing Errol's tweet? I hope we find out tonight :-)

Oh, please Eric. While I don't agree that SJP is ugly, let's not pretend like we haven't done our fair of bashing actors. Papa, don't preach.

And thanks... now I have that song stuck in my head...
