My money is on Nadia Bjorlin. She did fuck Bruce Willis to get her foot in the door in Hollywood.


That's a defamatory statement. How do you know what she and BW did or did not do? Did you spy on them? Just because she went to one movie premiere with him doesn't mean anything.

This Nelson person, just sounds like he needs to be recognized. Why didn't he just say what he knows and be done with it. Sounds like he likes all of the attention. Let's face it, a lot of us didn't know who he is or what he does until today. Maybe all of this attention will get him a job on NBC or "World News Tonight" NOT

This is just my opinion. Sorry, I just had to vent. I really don't care for the news media. They just love scandel.

I bet ya any money that we never hear names... until characters are suddenly never seen again or recast, then we can make educated guesses lol.
You're probably right but damn it would be great to hear!

He’s also encouraged actors, including one overblown diva, to rewrite not just her own lines, but her scene partners. [This star] has taken to telling others that she and Ed are the head writers.
Sorry, but this really sounds like RM. First, the dialogs and scenes for Chelsea/Dan are really awfull and amateurish. And second, they are full of how is Chelsea beautifull, hot and how much Dan loves her. It really sounds like the kind of stuff fanfiction writers writes and it is very in sync with the "OMG, itīs so amazing Iīm paid to make out all the time with this hot actor" stuff RM puts on her blog lately. Plus, SP never screentested with her and unless the casting director is blind he was not hired to be paired with her. Thatīs very unusual when the show wants to form a longterm frontburner pairing like Dansie is.

Well, that's not exactly true.

Nelson's been an entertainment journalist for YEARS. He writes the soap column for TV Guide-Canada. He also covers films and prime-time.

Just because you've never heard of him before doesn't mean he hasn't had a long and established career.

Nelson I think people are not wanting to think anything bad about Ed and that is their right.

I don't think that's the reason. I think people would prefer to hear all sides of the story rather than impugning the man's character based on the "report" of a solitary, nameless source. Nelson's scoop may prove 100% accurate but I think simple fairness dictates approaching these (extremely serious) allegations with caution.
I agree. Also, it is ironic that this story is making a lot of people sympathetic to Dena when it seems 101% obvious to me that she and Corday planned ahead of time for her to underhandedly scab during the writers strike, resulting in eight other writers losing the job. She used the union's desire to protect writers through the strike to protect herself, at the expense of other writers, when she was nearly unemployable after being fired from OLTL. Now she is complaining about ethics and underhanded dealing when it is convenient to her both from a public relations perspective and a negotiation standpoint with the WGA.

I am not saying that nothing underhanded is going on now or that the present allegations are necessarily all false. But there is obviously a bigger picture involved and we are seeing only a small part of it with this report.

Nelson is a journalist for TV Guide Canada. I highly doubt he is looking for attention. I am guessing the reason why he hasn't revealed all is two fold first it gets people riled up and second because he is still waiting on calls of confirmation and you don't want to out the wrong person.

We also have Chelsea's blog showing up again, which was written in a very young and girlish manner.

Very interesting points, especially about the fanfic feel to her scenes with SC. I haven't really thought it was RM, mainly because I dislike the character of Chelsea and as far as I'm concerned she's always had too much screen time, nothing new here. But what you say does make sense.

Well, I don't know what Nadia's agenda was, but she talked to the press about the Willis affair, complete with nuggets about screwing so rough that a lamp fell off a table.

I don't get the feeling sorry for Dena thing. That woman has burned us soap fans time and time again. Maybe its Karma. She started out her headwriting reign by writing Belle and Shawn off which pissed all of us off. Yes, Corday could of stopped that but she didn't want to write for them which is why they were sent off and a promising story of a quadrangle between Belle, Shawn, Chloe and Philip was nixed.

yup, you and i are on the exact same page.

i definitely don't think it's nadia. she hasn't had enough screentime to even warrant being a favorite or pet of a producer. as others have said, i don't think a veteran actress along the likes of DH, KA, LK, MBE, etc, would ever do this, knowing the strife it would cause behind the scenes and the trpuble they could get themselves into.

this has got to be a younger actress. the only suspects for me are KR, and RM. the BI posted earlier points RM's way, not KR's.

like others, i do think the truth lies somewhere in between, and i definitely don't think that dena is a saint. on the other hand, i do think it's likely ed scott was boffing one of the actresses, and that led to this whole debacle.

Maybe this is Dena's big story to keep people tuned in through the Olympics. She talked about needing something big to keep people tuned in when the show is airing at different time slots. Since she can't actually write a story for the show she creates back stage drama.
