I couldn’t believe a network didn’t carry the Emmy broadcast. Granted, on line, everyone can say what they want, which was entertaining. However, it doesn’t do justice to all of the daytime TV community. Millions of people watch these shows and I think the entertainment industry underestimates the contribution of daytime actors. For the producers to leave it in the hands of those morons on the red carpet was insulting.

SO HAPPY CHELSEA DID NOT WIN

Thanks so much Michael! Loved this interview! Almost called in myself but honestly didn’t think I’d be able to talk, lol.

Yes, big congrats to Eric and Eileen, so happy they won! I was rooting for them. I watched Passions for nearly it’s entire run (minus the last year, though I’ve since watched most of it on youtube) and it’s been awesome to see Eric as Brady. He’s great in the role, and I do agree he got even better last year. I also have watched Days since the mid-90s, and was thrilled Eileen won. I’ll say that generally when I watch award shows I don’t really care who wins except under certain conditions. And after Eileen and Eric’s performances last year on Days I really thought they deserved to win, especially Eileen though b/c of the “yelling at Jesus” scene alone, lol.

Kristen’s return really did provide Days a MUCH needed shot in the arm. They had been floundering before that for a while (imho).

Anyway to the Award Show itself, the Red Carpet was horrific! My roommate watched a bit with me and she asked me, “Are you sure you want to watch this? These girls are terrible.” I can’t even believe that was allowed. Now I will say they were not terrible with everyone, just most everyone. And the girls inside were not as bad as the ones on the carpet (and for some reason the girls in the black dresses were worse than the two in the white). But when they asked Joe Mascolo what made him legendary, it was a real “oh hell no” moment. I’m 27, so not much older than them, and the whole situation just made me really sad.

The awards itself though were pretty nice! Without a doubt the best in many years. I really hated the Vegas awards and the HLN were worse. Loved Kathy Griffin making fun of the Robin Meade country singing & that stupid couch, so bad!

One final note, I’m a bit upset by how Days handled Chandler Massey’s win. Not only did someone provide the wrong clip (intentional or not), but they also never congratulated him on FB! Not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things but come on, at least act appropriately given that he played a pivotal role for several years. And this is not coming from a Will or Wilson superfan, but just from a regular superfan of Days who thinks Guy Wilson is doing great (better with Sonny than Chandler) but also thinks Days needs to treat their actors with decency and not anger/spite.

SHARON CASE SHOULD OF WON BUT SHE LOOKED AMAZING

Days of our Lives Star, Greg Vaughan, Gives Health Update and Thanks Everyone for Their Support

Greg Vaughan (Eric, Days of our Lives, ex-Lucky, GH, and ex-Diego, Y&R) provided an update on his health on Sunday, March 17th. Vaughan had previously shared that he had become ill during a trip with his sons to Colorado, and had developed altitude sickness when he was having trouble breathing accompanied by terrible headaches and landed in the urgent care.

Now on St. Patrick’s Day, Greg took to his Instagram and shared how he is feeling now, and to thank everyone for their love and support.  As it turned out, Vaughan was diagnosed with high altitude pulmonary edema, commonly known as HAPE. However, he is on the mend slowly and surely.

In his new video post, the DAYS favorite started by expressing, “I just felt such an appreciation and gratitude for everything. . reaching out. Your prayers have been felt. It’s been a struggle, but I’m over the top. And, taking this moment just to say I didn’t realize the things that I was going through. My (original) post was simply just to educate, put some information out there and some things that I was feeling, just share that information and the struggle that I was going through, which I didn’t quite understand. And it wasn’t because I’m stubborn or just because I’m a father, a man, and didn’t want to go to a doctor. It is just something I thought was so minor that I could overcome it, just by taking care of myself.”

The Daytime Emmy winner then revealed his actual diagnosis, “So, basically my situation was high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). With some good friends, doctors that had reached out to me, it kind of gave me some understanding on the aftermath, which was very, very beneficial.”

“But I’ve been resting, taking care of myself even though I live in a hamster wheel,” said the dad of three teenaged boys. “I gotta get up and, you know, do my normal domesticated stuff, eventually. I’m tired of laying down in this bed, but, I am feeling much better.”

Talking on his confusion of trying to understand what could have been ailing him, Vaughan expressed, “I couldn’t quite figure it out, even though I was emphasizing and professing to my children going on our spring break getaway about hydration. I professed it. But, even though I was acting on it, it had a greater effect on me, and for which I did not even think, because my head was such in pain, and I was in a very bad state of mind – not being able to be out there with my kids on the mountain, enjoying their time, as well. I thought I was doing the right thing. Unfortunately, my lungs were full of fluids and my head was in severe pain and even migraine pills didn’t even help. So, I just want anybody that goes into the Colorado Mountains to know, it is no joke. It is this very serious thing which I guess is why they call it the Mile High City.”

Greg had a mountain of ‘thank you’s’ to give for the outreach he received from his original post, “For everybody internationally, wherever you are, I love you and I appreciate you and just the time and the thoughts that you’ve shared with me,” said Vaughan. “I didn’t realize that it would make such an impression on so many people around the world. I feel tremendously loved and I can’t say it enough. I’m good. And I appreciate you.”

The actor concluded his video with, “To all the family and friends that have reached out to me, man, it means the world. So take care of yourself, enjoy your spring break with your families. It’s Saint Patty’s Day, obviously. I wish I could be out there.” Vaughan added, “I feel loved and touched and I can’t emphasize that enough. I’ll take better care of myself, promise you will do the same.” Before he signed off, Greg shared, “Just know, that I’m alive and well and breathing, and I’m sore. So, be well, take care. I mean it. Thank you, tremendously.”

Glad to know that Greg has been on the mend, and shared his appreciation for everyone that reached out to him during this trying time? Comment below.

Days of our Lives Star Greg Vaughan Shares Sudden Health Scare: “I Truly Feel Like I Work & Live in a Soap Opera!”

What started out as an adventure with his sons, quickly turned into a nightmare for Days of our Lives Daytime Emmy winner, Greg Vaughan (Eric Brady).

In a series of Instagram posts, Vaughan shared the sudden health crisis he found himself in.  The images show Greg with an oxygen tank to help him breathe.

The actor began to fill people, sharing, “I’ve said more than a few times, I truly feel like I work & live in a Soap Opera! 🤪 this trip was nothing short of another great Vaughan adventure!”

He went on to say that on a father and son Colorado spring break trip, he began to feel shortness of breath, feeling tired and with a headache and after two days of hoping he would feel better, Vaughan finally went to an Urgent Care to get checked out.

“I finally surrendered & went to urgent care and to my shock I learned that I was experiencing severe altitude sickness.” Vaughan admitted. “My Blood Oxygen was at 54% & my lungs were full of fluids! Blood oxygen, also known as oxygen saturation, represents the percentage of hemoglobin in your red blood cells that is carrying oxygen. Most people have an oxygen level of 95-100%….”

Providing more detail to his health scare, Greg shared, “Well, 4hrs later, a couple of bags of IV & oxygen tank strapped to my face, I was told that I needed to immediately get off the mountain! However I couldn’t, we still had another day to go & wanting the boys to enjoy their last day on the hill tops! I opted to go home with an oxygen tank, a good laugh for everyone, and I know will follow, but my boys looked after their old man & fortunately they had friends on this trip!”

The experience of altitude sickness in the Colorado Rockies gave Vaughan a bit of a new perspective, “In all seriousness, no matter your age, and all the times I’ve ⛷️ & 🏂 in my lifetime, Colorado Rockies is no joke! As they say, ‘ take a breathe and smell the roses!’ That is truly something we need to remember & appreciate! #recover”

Share your well-wishes to Greg as he continues to be on the mend via the comment section below.
