Lauralee Bell’s (Christine) first appearance in Genoa City was as an extra when she was 9. The budding actress would have to wait four years before she got a speaking role on the soap created by her parents,
William J. Bell and
Lee Phillip Bell. In 1986 while she was in high school, Lauralee became a full-time cast member.
During a college semester, Greg Rikaart (Kevin) was involved in politics and interned for a congressman on Capitol Hill.
Before he was cast as manipulative Jack Abbott, Peter Bergman played long-suffering romantic hero Dr. Cliff Warner on ALL MY CHILDREN. The good doctor pursued, loved and lost Nina, approximately three times before they got married a fourth time and left town together.
After a whopping 19 nominations, Susan Lucci (ex-Erica, AMC) finally won a Daytime Emmy and Y&R actor Shemar Moore (ex-Malcolm) got to make the historic announcement. An ebullient Moore whooped: “The streak is over… Susan Lucci!”
Daniel Goddard's (Cane) son, Ford, and Christel Khalil's son, Michael Caden Hensley, both have Genoa City godparents.
Bryton James (Devon) is the godfather of Goddard's son and their co-star, Khalil, also picked James for the honorary role.
Bryton James isn't the only Y&R star to be asked to be a godparent, Beth Maitland (Traci) was asked by both Goddard and Khalil to be godmother to their respective children.
Joshua Morrow (Nick) is a big fan of Star Wars. His favorite character? Han Solo, of course.
