Is it really big news? I've know he was gay for so long.

For this genre, yes. I'm surprised if any actor comes out, at least those in a major role.

Christian . . . your turn.

I always believed those rumors of him and Christian back in the day, but yeah, not surprising.

Good for GR. I've seen that guy in pics CLB posts but never knew he was GR's boyfriend. Now they need to just make Kevin bisexual. Rafe could be his divorce lawyer then wallah Ravin begins. I'm glad Chlovin are finally ending. I see the writers are teasing Chilly and fans are geeked but I don't see Villy splitting up.

Alex and Abby are so mismatched and dull. I do like Abby and Tyler though. Hopefully Tyler is free from being Lane angst and Tabby get a real shot. As for Alex, I got nothing. That seldom seen Sheryl chick is definitely not the answer though.

I like Hillary but hate she's stuck in the Lane bubble. She needs to meet Alex and Noah. Move her around some.

Unfortunately, I agree about CK and Hilary. The actress playing Hilary should have been a Lily recast. As for CK, who on earth would hire her other than a soap? She is a wet rag with no talent. For the all the criticism of Bryton, unlike CK he has actually gotten nice guest prime time jigs outside. I have no clue why he did not leave years ago. He must like the steady money.

As for Tyler and Lily, I don't think that they are taking long if the plan is to make them a real couple, but we'll see. What I don't buy is that Tyler would be celibate while drooling over Lily. I would expect him to be dating or in a steady relationship with another woman.

While in real life, I would expect a Tyler to be getting it in on a regular basis (and if they ever decide to give Devon a real love interest i am willing to bet money that the someone will be Roxy to break them up...). But on a soap, they typically have people celibate when they are after someone else. Hence my concern that Tyler and Lily might not be a long term pairing as they have, to my chagrin, Lily STILL sleeping with Cane. Will the madness ever stop! I mean, if she still had a uterus, we might be headed for a whose the daddy. But no..that is not the reason.

See, that's why I think they not going to keep her that long. They got other plans.

What? Reunite her and Neil then write them out? Chile naw...that would be a real fire storm there.

Devon and Bryton must be really good with the kids, they ran to him so fast--seems like he has a natural rapport with the twins. They didn't even get that close to Cain in such immediate fashion (LOL). They did run to Lily/CK fast too, so I'd say she's probably pretty good with them too. Either that or the twins got confused and thought CK and Bryton were their parents (lol). Although they did seem to like Traci too.

Speaking of Traci, I wonder whether she should adopt. Seems like Traci has so much love to give and nowhere to put it all. I know plenty of people have a lot of love but don't want kids but Traci really seems like she misses being a Mother. Too bad they shifted out that Jaime kid. Traci would've made an excellent mother to him.

Avery and Nick's scenes are dragging to me. It seems as if they could merge some of their scenes with less time spent. They seem to be discussing the same issues over and over-- sometimes repeating things can be okay, if there is something new to learn each time, but I get the impression that much of the content in their scenes are filler.

The other day with Sharon's graveside talk with Cassie, I didn't get the vibe that she had plotted with the DNA results. When she mentioned that she 'did what she did' I saw it as more of her talking about her promiscuous behavior being a result of her feeling like she needs to belong with someone. I also thought of the possibility that she might have been confessing the burning down of the ranch (which Adam advised she never admit to) as a result of feeling lost but my first instinct was her talking about her promiscuity as a result of her self-loathing in feeling like an outsider.

Personally, it would be cool with me if they could bring back VR but I'm dubious. Looking at VR's twitter feed (I got curious), it seems like fans are tweeting her a lot and asking her when she's coming back and at first she said she's not. When people still pressed her on whether she could be Rose, she said she said something like 'not unless they've moved to Maine, Atl, NYC (something like that) to film scenes and I haven't seen them here' (I'm paraphrasing). Then she mentioned that she had upcoming news and when people asked whether it related to Y&R, she said No, even better. But she has some later tweets that said she had even newer News, so I have no idea what that means

I do think she is clever at keeping her followers intrigued, she's an actress so I guess she kind of has to show that she can still generate interest to put herself in contention for future project possibilities. I can't believe her son is a H.S. graduate! Time flies.

I also noticed Bryton/Devon and the twins. He was way too cute with them. So was CK/Lily. Cane/DG not so much. Anyways, Bryton probably spent alot of time with them on set (the way Joshua Morrow used to spend alot of time with the kids who played Cassie and Nate)...and the kids also probably see themselves when they look at Bryton. Never underestimate the power of the mirror image. Folks like seeing themselves. Even kids.

For the first time, I was actually interested in Abby and Chavez. I think the financial/class tension is an interesting point to play up between the characters. Her money makes him uncomfortable. Soaps don't really talk about the wealth gap these days but it is a reality in American life today, especially post-recession. I know people already have Abby paired with Tyler, but I would actually be interested in seeing how Abby and Chavez could try to navigate these economic tensions. The more uncomfortable the better.

Lily & Cane WTH- Does no one in GC own a bed anymore? People make fun of the online soaps' budget but when the heck is the last time that you saw a couple make love in a bed on this show? Funny thing is that Lauren and Carmine springs to mind.

I know Lane fans will think it's romantic but it seems so silly to be doing it in the living room when you have twins that can run right in there.

Tyler's only interest in Abby is how close to Lily he can get by association. I thought that was evident today.

I agree that Tyler's interest in Abby is tied to her connection to Lily.

Good for GR. I've seen that guy in pics CLB posts but never knew he was GR's boyfriend. Now they need to just make Kevin bisexual. Rafe could be his divorce lawyer then wallah Ravin begins. I'm glad Chlovin are finally ending. I see the writers are teasing Chilly and fans are geeked but I don't see Villy splitting up.

Alex and Abby are so mismatched and dull. I do like Abby and Tyler though. Hopefully Tyler is free from being Lane angst and Tabby get a real shot. As for Alex, I got nothing. That seldom seen Sheryl chick is definitely not the answer though.

I like Hillary but hate she's stuck in the Lane bubble. She needs to meet Alex and Noah. Move her around some.

While I suspect that you are likely right about Billy, He and Victoria are such a horrible couple. I remain hopeful as I enjoy Chilly's scenes. I think that she will end up dating Alex who is insanely hot unlike Billy. However, I think something will happen between Chloe and Billy.

I don't mind Lily still sleeping with Cane. It is very soapy for her sleep with him to try to push aside her feelings for Tyler. Besides, I am not looking forward to her ruining a love scene with the sexy gorgeous Tyler.

I actually think that Hilary is tied to the Winters as a whole since I think that she has a connection to Neil and is scheming against him..

Its not, but sites like the backlot and blogs will cling to anything to make something like this a huge issue.

Christian . . . your turn.

Is he in the closet?

He doesnt hide it. He may just not want to discuss his personal life with the magazines and sites.

Thank you. It's really nobody's business who any star is sleeping with. Straight or gay. It's always curious when someone like Kirsten Storms and Brandon Barash are hanging out together, but they are under no obligation to explain the nature of their relationship.

Did Greg Rikaart just come out?

If not, sorry for misunderstanding the tweet.

(if that is his boyfriend he's a pretty cute guy)

A few years ago, Nelson Branco wrote several blind items about Rikaart, including how he set up a threesome with his boyfriend and a new costar, Wilson Bethel (Ryder). In his columns, Branco labeled Rikaart a "queen."

Remember how GR beautifully took down Melissa reeves on twitter last year? That was the best.

Wait! Wait! Wait! Wilson Bethel is gay too? :-)
