Jay Kenneth Johnson interview

A Closer Look: Philip

Philip gets his wish this week, when Belle finally admits she loves him. For Jay Kenneth Johnson, Philip's relentless pursuit has been part heartfelt feelings, part Kirakis roots, and all a kick to play.

SOW: Is Philip's proposal to Belle really just a rich guy throwing his weight around?

JKJ: Philip doesn't thing that way. He thinks it's the right thing to be with Belle. Philips believes he can provide the life Belle deserves.

SOW: Who would you assess the more ruthless and certainly more sensitive Philip?

JKJ: It's more true to the character, at least the two times I have played Philip. They're definitely finding Philip. He's being written more to who he is and where he comes from, the family that he comes from. He's a very strong character. I attribute a lot of it to Ed Scott and Noel Maxam, the producers . They've taken the time, not only with me, but with other actors on the show, to distinguish what our characters are about and to work through that on-set. So it's that, and me growing up a little.

SOW: What kind of reaction have you been getting to your very grown up and steamy romance with Martha Madison?

JKJ: My mom watches the who occasionally. She mentioned that she's been fast-forwarding through a lot more scenes lately.

SOW: What about the fans?

JKJ: You get fans of both. Shawn and Belle have been together for how many years? They've definitely garnered their fans. But since Martha and I have been onscreen together, we've picked up some fans, as well. The conflict is definitely there, and we're having a god time playing it. I hope the fans like it.

SOW: You've been in a strong triangle before, having lived through the hole Broe/Phloe debate.

JKJ: Yeah, I should be good at it by now.

SOW: What does Philip always seem to lose the girl?

JKJ: I've been telling people for months now, 'Those girls should be chasing me (laughs). Since I've been back I've been chasing babies and ex-wives. Damn! It's just not fair!"

SOW: Does Philip have more to offer Belle than Shawn does?

JKJ: They have different things to offer. They both have their good and bad qualities. But, yes, Philip has a lot to offer, for sure.

SOW: The money, the power, the plush office at Titan...

JKJ: Some girls find that very attractive, right?

SOW: All Shawn has is the Brady Pub.

JKJ: That's peanuts --- ha ha --- in comparison.

SOW: Tossing Nadia Boring back into the mix. If Chloe makes a move on Philip, will that make him even more attractive to Belle?

JKJ: That's the way it works, isn't it? I'm excited for Nadia to be back. I was pleased with our first few scenes together . I'm looking forward to what happens next. I don't know how it's all going to play out, but it's going to be fun."

Thanks, Jonotha :)

Woohoo, Philip. Love that JKJ. Loved Kyle Brandt, too. I guess I'll have to start watching when Chloe comes back, too.

Well, I think everyone who was wondering if JKJ stays after his one year contract ends can stop. He seems to love this new grey powerfull Phillip. And I love how all the actors seems to be excited with the new TPTB. Ed Scott really has to be making a difference.

But I do wish they kind of move Philip away from Belle. To me the times when he is begging Belle not to marry Shawn comes of lame. Where as I love the stuff when he has been with Kate and Lucas lately. It is those scenes that I see a Philip that I could love to hate. I do kind of hope that we have a story more where Philip and Chloe connect again and not having Belle be wallowing away wanting to be with Philip. Let Philip find out that someone else could love him for the man he is and not what his daddy's checkbook can provide. Let Belle focus on dealing with her guilt and growing up instead of being the selfish child we have been dealing with.

Love me some JKJ!
Phillip has been way too hot lately! Ditch him Belle and get him some of Chloe! I can't wait for Belle to see that. I hope they have sex right in front of her!

Can't wait for all of this to play out! Yay! Another storyline!
