What does it mean to you to still be on the show and marking 12,000 episodes? “Being part of this wonderful company after so many years is truly a blessing.”
What stands out to you about your first episode? “I don’t remember my exact first episode, but I vividly remember working with Roberta Leighton [ex-Casey] and Quinn Redeker [ex-Nick] during those early days and was so impressed with their talent.”
What is a story you’ve always wanted to play for Nikki but haven’t yet? “There are two: a dual role, and going stark-raving mad. Rubber room, straitjacket!”
If you had to describe Nikki in three words, what would they be? “Loyal, generous and fierce! Honorable mention: Color- coordinated!”
What is your message to the fans who have watched for any part of the 12,000 episodes? “Y&R has an extremely loyal fan base. We are so grateful for your devotion. Without you, we wouldn’t be celebrating our 12,000th show! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
