I am not sure whether it is relevant to the WGA, if the allegations are true, whether Ed Scott and the actress were not actually being compensated for their work. As a lawyer who has done a share of immigration law, I know that there are specific definitions of "work" or "employment" that usually have receipt of compensation as part of the definition. It is probably more a matter of labor law or the union's contract language. That said, the "legalities" may be secondary if the public relations fallout is great enough. Dena herself has some huge public relations issues herself with the planned scabbing during the strike and Hogan and his team being fired. She is not the most sympathetic accuser. I guess the WGA would make the two issues completely separate to be fair and professional. |

This reported "diva" has to be someone that has been on our screens alot. My number one pick goes for KR, which is the most logical since she went from being a backburned character with hardly any story to a frontburning character with more airtime than even the most beloved vets in a couple of months. Smells fishy to me! LOL! |

that is where we will have to agree to disagree. i've been reading that blog for three years now, and i believe the things they write. shoot, they've broken all kinds of extra-marital affiars and pregnancies before anyone else did. and again, they focus on a and b-list celebs. there's no reason for them to make up a blind item about a soap star no one cares about. JMO, though. and that blind item coming on top of today's news? that just made me beleive it all the more. |

I don't think that was Nadia. I think that stuff was made up. That's the only interview where it claims that they talked to her, and if other outlets ran with that original story, that's not NB's fault. NB categorically denied it all, and I remember reading and thinking some of it (romping? bare bottom? I think one of the older versions I read used the words shagged and snogged, which I just can't see coming out of her mouth) just didn't sound like NB and sounded sorta British (which is where the original mag was located, if I remember correctly). It may or may not be true, but that's one of those things I chalk up to tabloids making crap up. Just want to reiterate again that if it is NB doing these things, she would have a much, much better storyline than she has right now playing second fiddle to Lucas/Sami and Philip/Morgan. She's hardly ever on. Months ago she was on all the time with Philip, but now she's lucky if she gets on once a week. I agree that I would lean more towards a green actress who doesn't know how badly she's screwing herself by bragging about her "power." I can't see a more seasoned/professional actress doing that. |

It's a post from Nadia: Tabloid Trash 07/12/7 at 3:35pm So, I was outta the country on vacation, with no access to a computer, when I found out about a ridiculous tabloid article written about me. I won't even dignify this magazine by sharing it's name with you (though I'm sure you already know), but I just want you to know that it is an absurd and fabricated article about my "supposed" private affairs with Bruce Willis. I NEVER said any of those ridiculous things. I gave an interview to this overseas magazine about my movie Redline and it's release on DVD on August 21, 2007. I also spoke to them about If I Had Known I was a Genius. Of course, none of this was mentioned. Anyone who knows me, knows I never divulge about my private life, let alone in such a classless, vulgar manner. I mean, who even talks that way?!?! They did ask me about Bruce, and once again, I wouldn't give them anything exciting on the matter, so I guess something imaginative was concocted. I've been told that this does happen a lot being in the entertainment industry, but I have never personally experienced such crap. Anyway, I was hoping no one would believe such garbage, but some did, so I'm here to clear up that matter. And I want to thank everyone who has supported me through the years, and appreciate everyone who has given me encouraging words during this. I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer so far, and know that I'm still here to answer questions that you post for me. I know that my boards have been a little quiet since I was introduced to MySpace (darn that MySpace! ) But, this is probably a better forum to discuss topics, rather than MySpace. Hope you're well, and talk to you soon! XOXO |

I've said it before, I'll say it again- NBC should be airing the behind-the-scenes stuff as a reality show, because this is awesome. Sex, business, power, fame...it's all right here! The hype beforehand was pretty cool, and the hint about tomorrow is a nice teaser leading me on, too, so the show should, y'know, borrow that. I won't even begin to speculate about who the Diva is ('cause my heart has decided it's Bjorlin). The rest of this is what captivates me. Besides the legal aspect of things and the WGA involvement, who else would choose to write for the show now? Seriously. They got a bad rep because of whatever went down during the strike, they already have the stigma of being a daytime soap opera, and now this mess? I can't imagine anyone choosing to work for the show as a writer. And with slim pickings on that front, they're kind of dead in the water. Somewhat ironically, I'm kind of more interested in what's actually happening on the show now that this news is out there. It adds a layer that makes things interesting for me. |

Oh, I agree, and understand. But when a journalist like Nelson uses that word, that "hot" word, in the next graf that follows an explosive revelation, which also includes that "hot" word -- it leaves the impression that we're supposed to connect the dots -- so he doesn't have to talk. |

Well, I figured this was hyperbole and it wound up being so. And it had an item that lead to the resurrection of those stupid Blind Items and the "omg is it rachel shelley or kristin" bullshit. Just more fuel for the gossip rags. Honestly, if Scott wants to hijack the series and bring in some talented people to do the job.. then good on him. Corday hasn't really had any success or allowed his writers to achieve any with the show in a long time. |

Oh, I agree. This could actually HELP "Days" if the mainstream media get a hold of it (and if it's that big enough for them to do so). It's like when I saw on "Showbiz Tonight," it's cynical, but the biz LIKED that the ridiculous controversy surrounded Christian Bale during his premiere; things like that sometimes boost interest (for whatever reason). |

"This actress on an NBC soap kind of came out of the woodwork and rocketed up the ladder on this soap. She keeps getting more and more lines and lets everyone know it. She has no friends on the set except for the producers she sleeps with and she doesn't share the coke she vacuums up like a Hoover."
