Jackie Cox, has impersonated Lisa Rinna (Billie, DAYS) several times before, and people have loved it. The Rupaul’s Drag Race star now landed a part on the upcoming streamer series, Days of our Lives: Beyond Salem, which debuts on Monday, September 6th.

Those in the know are aware that Cox had done quite the drag impersonation of Rinna in the past on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live and on the Bravo network float at the Pride parade in New York City.

DAYS came-a-calling when they thought what a fun, campy moment it would be to have Cox and Rinna mix it up in story in the upcoming limited series.

In an interview with EW.com, Jackie shared a bit of what goes down on-screen when Billie Reed meets up with Cox’s character: “It’s quite the encounter, complete with lots of soap opera stares, which Lisa and I had too much fun doing! It was my first time on a soap opera set, and Lisa was so welcoming and definitely helped me find my light. She kept saying ‘the good light is over here, honey,’ and amen for that!”

Cox added on trying to achieve the perfect Rinna look for the taping at DAYS: “I was trying to get my bangs to go just the right way. Her only suggestion to me on set, looks-wise, was to wear the higher set of heels I brought. I was worried I would tower over her, but she said ‘the higher heels are too fierce, honey, you gotta wear them!’” 

So, looking forward to seeing the Rinna vs. Cox showdown in ‘Beyond Salem’? Comment below.

Not exactly what DAYS fans want.

It’s Beyond Salem, technically not Days. That being said, I don’t think Carlivati cares what we want.

He never has. To the contrary… he’s been known to read comments on social media & message boards and then do just the opposite, just to troll the fans.

I’d actually have some appreciation for his sarcastic sense of humor if he hadn’t already come close to killing off General Hospital with it, a few years back, and is now doing the same thing to Days.

Love it! So fun!

I honestly thought that Falista Lockhart was a man in drag until I saw she was an actress known for some other shows.

Now that you mention it, she did sort of look like a bad “drag queen” version of Bonnie.

Satan,
Thanks, I was starting to feel bad that I said that, and glad someone agreed with me.

You’re not alone, Violet. I thought the same thing! I Googled her out of curiosity. Sometimes, you just don’t know… 🙂 🙂 🙂

DAYS Arianne Zucker On Baby Switch Storyline: “It’s Heartbreaking to Watch What Nicole Has Been Going Through”

On Days of our Lives, a soap opera which has had more than its fair share of baby switch storylines over the years, viewers have watched in anguished now that Nicole Walker DiMera (Arianne Zucker) is the next victim of this heinous plot twist.

Making it all the more ironic is years ago, Nicole illegally took Sami’s daughter, Sydney after she suffered a miscarriage and tried to pass it off as her own, only for it to backfire in now classic scenes between Zucker and Alison Sweeney.

Now in 2023, it’s Nicole’s turn to have a ‘switch’ perpetrated on her, this time by Sloan (Jessica Serfaty) and the shifty Melinda Trask (Tina Huang) as the ringmasters.

The baby named “Jude” is actually Eric’s (Nicole’s all-time love) biological son, but Nicole has thought this whole time her baby daddy was EJ (Dan Feuerriegel), her current husband – thanks to more skullduggery from Sloan switching the DNA paternity results.

According to an interview in the latest issue of TV Guide Magazine, posted as an Instagram story on the Days of our Lives official show account,Nicole will get more of a clue as to what what happened behind her back, and to the unthinkable for a mother and her newborn baby, after she holds Eric’s “adopted” son Jude. It is then, she feels a strong bond with the little bundle of joy.  Remember, Nicole gave birth at the side of a road after getting into a car accident when Dimitri (Peter Porte) and Leo (Greg Rikaart) were driving the other care while they were on the run and trying to get to Dr. Rolf’s submarine.  Not the best of circumstances for a new mom, but was later told her baby had died.

Zucker expressed: “She (Nicole) feels there’s a possibility this baby is hers. Nicole knows that Sloan is sly. Nicole has an issue with postpartum depression as we saw with the last baby-switch storyline. She’s going to put all of those things together and think this has to be her baby.”

In the end, the longtime fan favorite, shared, “It’s heartbreaking to watch what Nicole had been going through.” It certainly has! With many Days of our Lives fans screaming “Emmy” for Zucker and Dan Feuerriegel as the “grieving parents.”

So, what do you think about the Nicole/Sloan baby switch storyline? Are you over it and want it to end sooner than later? What do you think about the performance of Arianne Zucker within it? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
