DAYS Take 3: Who Am I?

Answers

1. Blake Berris (Nick) — NBC

   Don't call me just another pretty face. I was an honor student in high school and am a poet at heart. In fact, I've even had several of my poems published. Who am I?
1. Gorgeous Shelley Hennig (Stephanie) is a former Miss Teen USA; she won the crown in 2004. But there's a lot more to her than meets the eye. The talented young actress is also quite the writer and has had several of her verses published in the Young Authors’ Book of Poetry.
2. Sure, I'm a white-collar guy on DAYS, but in real life I've held down my share of blue-collar gigs. Heck, I used to work on the railroad. But once my acting career took off, particularly as the sidekick to a popular 1970s TV detective, there was no looking back. Hey, anybody want a lollipop? Who am I?
1. Kevin Dobson (Mickey) worked as a trainman, brakeman and conductor for the Long Island Rail Road. That is, before he studied acting at New York University. Before long, he was a working actor, appearing on shows like THE MOD SQUAD and KOJAK, where he played Detective Bobby Crocker to Telly Savalas' lollipop-loving title character.
3. I've won a gold medal, but, no, not in the Olympics. I've also strutted my stuff — or maybe I should say "shook" it — in a music video for a major pop star. Two years ago, I also played the object of a former GH star's affections on his short-lived prime-time series. Who am I?
1. In 1996, while still a junior in high school, Nadia Bjorlin (Chloe) won the gold medal in an international vocal competition in Verona, Italy. Bjorlin went on to appear in Ricky Martin's famous "Shake Your Bon-Bon" video, and appeared as John Stamos' (ex-Blackie, GH) ideal woman in the short-lived prime-time series, JAKE IN PROGRESS.
4. Did you know I once appeared on the cover of TV Guide? It was during one of my gigs working for Aaron Spelling. I've actually had a couple. Oh, and thanks to my intriguing and controversial prime-time past, I really related to the film Notes on a Scandal. Who am I?
1. Leann Hunley (Anna) graced the cover of the July 30 to Aug. 5, 1988 issue of TV Guide, during her gig as Dana Waring Carrington on DYNASTY. Hunley also worked for Spelling on MODELS, INC. In 1999, she tackled her most controversial role, when a la Cate Blanchett's character in Notes on a Scandal, Hunley played a teacher (Tamara Jacobs) who had an affair with Pacey, one of her high school students, on DAWSON'S CREEK.
5. Remember DAYS' Ghoul Girl? Well, I once played a ghoul (guy?) on a TV series starring the world's hottest teen star. You might also be surprised to know I'm a ballet dancer. Seriously. But I love sports, too. Who am I?
1. Blake Berris (Nick) portrayed a ghoul in an episode of HANNAH MONTANA, starring Miley Cyrus, titled “More Than a Zombie to Me.” The actor is also proficient in ballet. When he's not strutting his stuff, he lists baseball, tae kwon do, tennis and kickboxing among his favorite sports.
6. I was voted Hottest Student Body by my high school class and share a birthday with Angelina's No. 1 guy. I guess you could say I've led a pretty "charmed" life, right? Who am I?
1. Shawn Christian (Daniel) was obviously just as buff during his teen years. His birthday is Dec. 18, just like Pitt's. And as for the charmed reference, Christian recurred as Josh on the WB series, CHARMED, from 1998 to 1999.
7. I've never jumped up and down on Oprah's sofa, but I do have something else in common with Tom Cruise. During my year in the fashion business, I rubbed elbows with Robert Redford and Robert Evans. One last clue: I'm a pretty good dancer. In fact, I actually taught a film co-star some moves. Who am I?
1. Although Cruise starred in the trio of Mission: Impossible films, Thaao Penghlis (Tony) starred in the 1988-’90 TV remake of Mission: Impossible, portraying Nicholas Black. While working for designer Robert Meledandri, Penghlis and company made suits for Redford and Evans. Penghlis also taught actress Kelly LeBrock how to dance for a sequence in the film The Mirror.
8. Did you know I went to the same high school as Brad Pitt, although we graduated years apart? I can also play doctor, as well as a corporate suit. I lived in Hawaii for a while, which was a blast. So was working for the late, great Aaron Spelling. Who am I?
1. Jay Kenneth Johnson (Philip) attended Springfield, Mo.'s Kickapoo High School, the same alma mater as another former Springfield resident, Pitt. In between his DAYS stints, Johnson recurred as Dr. Matthews on SCRUBS and held down a starring role on NORTH SHORE, which filmed in Oahu. In 2003, he also won the role of Ethan Cox on a remake of the old Spelling series, HOTEL.
9. I shared a leading lady with David Groh, albeit not on the same show, and it was years apart. Before I got into acting, I seriously considered a career in law. In fact, I even passed the bar. Who am I?
1. From 1986 to 1991, Josh Taylor (Roman) played Michael, Valerie Harper's character’s husband on the sitcom, VALERIE. Groh played Joe, Harper's character’s husband on RHODA back in the 1970s. Taylor also passed the Colorado bar exam, before realizing the corporate world wasn't for him, moving to Los Angeles, and deciding to pursue acting.
10. Did you know I toyed with following in Dr. Marlena Evans’ footsteps in real life, which is ironic, considering the character I play? As for my other non-acting career goals, let's just say I could rub you the right way, if you let me. Who am I?
1. Tamara Braun (Ava) was once a psychology major at the University of Wisconsin. The actress was also four credits shy of becoming a licensed massage therapist when she landed her debut daytime role as Carly Corinthos on GENERAL HOSPITAL.
