Joe Mascolo Fires Back at Lisa Rinna for Naming Him "The Worst Actor on DAYS!"

Courtesy/NBC
Days of our Lives Lisa Rinna, who unfortunately put her foot in her mouth earlier this week, with the egging on and prompting of Watch What Happens Live, with Bravo host Andy Cohen is now getting some pushback from her co-star, Joseph Mascolo!
Rinna who played Cohen’s interview game of “Plead The Fifth”, where celebs are put on the spot was asked who was the worst actor on the soap. Cohen offered up “Stefano DiMera” and Rinna nodded her head and said, “I’m gonna go there.” Also Cohen asked Rinna who else in Hollywood needed Lip Reduction Surgery in which she said, Taylor Armstrong of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills!
Soap Opera Digest has now revealed they reached out to Mascolo for his comments about the debacle and he said, “Lisa saying that Taylor should have her lips reduced and calling me the worst actor on DAYS is sort of like the pot calling the kettles black!”
Lisa also took to her twitter account after realizing what she had done tweeting, “I must apologize for my Joe Mascolo comments on WWHL. He is a Great actor and I should never had said him- when answering- I was stupid.”
So what so you think of Joe’s comments? Let us know!

‘Brilliant Minds’ Officially Canceled After 2 Seasons at NBC; DAYS Alum Al Calderon, OLTL Alum Teddy Sears and Zachary Quinto Among the Cast
After languishing on the bubble for months, on Friday, NBC handed down the decision and canceled the medical drama Brilliant Minds after two seasons.
Brilliant Minds stars Zachary Quinto as neurology physician Oliver Wolf, who’s character and the series is inspired by the life and books of neurologist. Oliver Sacks. The series focuses on the medical mysteries of the mind, as Wolf a larger-than-life neurologist and his team of interns explore the last great frontier, the human mind, while grappling with their own relationships and mental health.
The final six episodes of what will now be the end of its second and final season were already set to air beginning on May 27, after being pulled off the network schedule in February as viewership saw a steep decline. Brilliant Minds second season became the lowest-rated drama on linear TV viewing, which didn’t bode well fo a network renewal, although it had its hard core fan base.

There are some exceptional notables in the cast along with the talented Quinto that includes Days of Our Lives alum, Al Calderon (ex-Javi Hernandez) who joined the series in its second season as Nurse Nico Silva, and One Life to Live alum, Teddy Sears (ex-Chad Bennett) who plays Wolf’s love interest and fellow physician, Dr. Josh Nichols.
The rest of the talented cast includes: Tamberla Perry, Ashleigh LaThrop, Alex MacNicoll, Aury Krebs, Spence Moore II, Donna Murphy, John Clarence Stewart, and Brian Altemus.
In an ironic twist of fate on Thursday, April 30, Days of Our Lives finally revealed the actor who was Al Calderon’s successor in the role of Javi, when they announced that actor Jacob Martinez had now stepped into the role. Since DAYS tapes ten months ahead of streaming new episode, Calderon left in the spring of 2025, but will be seen in the part for the final part this month, and then on June 20, Martinez debuts as Salem’s new Javi.
Taking to his Instagram with a sorrowful and heartfelt post on the Brilliant Minds cancellation was Teddy Sears who wrote, “Thank you, Brilliant Minds. I got the call today and I didn’t want to hear, but I knew that it would come, You have to be a particular vintage to quote Don Henley from memory, but that’s the line that came to mind earlier today after I got off the phone with our inimitable showrunner Michael Grassi who delivered the news that NBC has cancelled the series”.

Sears continued, “To say that I feel sad to be moving on from these stories, this character, and this cast and crew just doesn’t paint the entire picture. I’m sad, sure. But I’m also deeply grateful that I got hired to play this part, so proud of the stories we told, and the other actors I got to play alongside. I’m excited to see what comes next, what adventures await, and terrified to be without a professional home. A quick and heartfelt thank you to everyone, all over the globe, who found us and found themselves in us, in our characters and in our stories. We wouldn’t have been able to tell them without you. And we still have 6 fresh episodes yet to air, and I do hope you tune in enjoy the remainder of the series. They’re the best we’ve done.”
As he wrapped up his sentiments, Sears signed off with, “The more I know, the less I understand. All the things I figured out I have to learn again. I’ve been trying to get down to the heart of the matter. But everything changes…Thank you, Brilliant Minds.”
The medical drama was created and executive produced by Michael Grassi alongside Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman, Lee Toland Krieger, DeMane Davis, Jasmine Russ, Henrik Bastin, Jonathan Cavendish, Andy Serkis and Shefali Malhoutra.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Sophia Seemingly Plans to End Her Life, But Not Before Setting Fire to Johnny’s Apartment With Him Trapped Inside
The final few moments of the Thursday, April 30 episode of Days of our Lives, will pave the way, to what just may be the end of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) life, but not as you may think!
After an unhinged Sophia paid a visit to Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), maced him in the eyes, knocked him out and then tied up to a chair, now conscious, she lets him know that she holds him responsible for all the trouble and trauma she has gone through from adopting her child, and her being sent to a mental institution.
So instead of the unregistered gun Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) gave her to finish off Johnny, Sophia sets up a plan to light candle, use nail polish remover and turn on the gas on the stove to ultimately create a mass explosion, which although Johnny pleaded to her not to that to all the innocent people inside his apartment building, she doesn’t seem to care.

FIERY FACE OFF
The plan was supposed to be, after she takes care of Johnny she will toss the gun in the Salem River, then focus on payback to Holly Jonas before leaving town to start a new life.
Now, Sophia makes her exit, leaving Johnny to be a few moments away from an explosion or gas inhalation, when Chanel (Raven Bowens) comes home after awaiting the results of her mammogram. She sees Johnny tied up, as he panics and tells her to put out the flame on the candle, things go awry, and a fire has begun and everything may go up in flames with Johnny and Chanel inside.

A BROKEN SOPHIA
Back in her room, Sophia breaks down after reading the social media comments about her, she planted, and then starts writing a suicide or farewell note which says. “I’m tired of begging for forgiveness for my mistakes. All I wanted was to move forward, to be loved and understood. But it’s clear that I was never going to get that. Holly Jonas said that I was dead to her. So, as her former BFF, I’m going to make her dream a reality.”

A DEADLY TRAP
Now, the fate of Johnny, Chanel and Sophia will be revealed on tomorrow’s May 1st cliffhanger, which may be the end of Sophia when she crosses paths with Kirsten at the bridge near the river. We do know Rachel Boyd is no longer appearing in the show credits section and is now off contract with the soap.
So, what did you think of the climatic final moments of DAYS? What did you think of the performance of Rachel Boyd as Sophia Choi? Let us know via the comment section.

Jacob Martinez is ‘Days of Our Lives’ New Javi Hernandez Replacing Al Calderon in the Role
Finally! The casting has been revealed as to just who would be Al Calderon’s successor in the role of Days of our Lives, Javi Hernandez. On Friday, April 30, the long-running soap opera revealed Jacob Martinez is taking on the part and he will first be seen this coming June 30th and then on all-new episodes streaming on Peacock.
As previously reported, the popular Calderon exited the soap opera last year to join the cast of the NBC primetime medical drama, Brilliant Minds as nurse Nico Silva, who in May will air the remainder of their second season. The series has been on the bubble for renewal by the network. His last episodes as Javi will also air this May on DAYS.
Since DAYS tapes ten months ahead of streaming, Martinez has been secretly ensconced in all the drama in Salem for quite some time. When viewers see the new Javi in story, we should learn what will happen in Javi’s relationship with Leo Stark played by Emmy winner, Greg Rikaart, plus his continued relationship with his relatives in the Hernandez clan. Currently, when Javi returned to Salem after taking care of his ailing father, and after the bust-up of his marriage to Leo thanks to Dimitri (Peter Porte), he claimed he had moved on with someone else while he was away from Salem.

Like Calderon before him, Martinez is a multi-talented actor and singer. Jacob’s resume is impressive having appeared in the musical In Pieces: The Musical at Joe’s Pub at The Public Theater and he was hand-picked by Joey Contreras to play the role of Grey. Other credits include: the short film, Memory Swim and the play Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage.
Martinez hails from Norfolk, Nebraska and appeared when he was very young at the Johnny Carson Theatre, and as DAYS fans know, Jacob is now working at the Days of our Lives studios, right where the “Tonight Show” is filled. In addition, Jacob Martinez is a graduate of The American Musical and Dramatic Academy (AMDA).
Taking to his Instagram on Thursday, April 30 once the news of his casting was revealed, Martinez, expressed, “Way too many people to thank in one post, so I’ll just say THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART to each and every person who continues to pour into me and encourage me to chase my dreams. I cannot even begin to express how grateful I am. I already feel beyond blessed, supported, and loved. See you all in Salem ⏳”
Jacob Martinez appeared on Friday on the Days of our Lives Instagram account announcing his casting. You can check it out below. Deadline was the first to report the casting switch.

Stefano will have his revenge!
It was very poor of Lisa to name names. She should have said herself. Or said no one. No comment.
Joe Mascolo is a traditional, old-school actor. That being said, I want to emphasize that he is consistent and disciplined. Stefano diMera is a larger-than-life character and Joe does an excellent job portraying him. His accent is unique and I luuuuuv it when he rolls those “R’s”!! Some actors on the show tend to mumble, but never Joe. Too bad what passes for journalism these days . . . can you imagine stars like Clark Gable being asked ‘who is the worst actor in your current movie?’ or ‘do you think your leading lady’s boobs are too big/too small/just right?’ Come on, Cohen, put your thinking cap on and come up with questions that aren’t junior high level!
Bravo!
bravo o to he is a great actor all the wrods said above is so true shame on lisa from canada
Joe Mascolo’s comment was the PERFECT response!
Considering, Lisa did apologize to him (he fired back) but just the right amount considering her apology. Perfect, a CLASS act.
I didn’t know who the actor was when this issue came up. Now that his picture is shown, I have to AGREE with the person who posted Joe’s acting is CLASSIC soap opera. Yes it is, poster. On days when abc soaps weren’t shown and I had to have on an opera, I would see him, listen to him, and I remember how perfecto his pronunciation was. If U look at the old clips on Youtub, they all spoke like that back when. And Ereka Slezak still does do a degree.
The questions were obviously intended to stir up controversy. Lisa should have known that before going on the show and been prepared for that.
Maybe she thought he said “best actor”.
Time to let this go. Mr. Mascolo is by no means the worst actor. Matter of fact, he is one of the reasons I watch DOOL.
me to.
Good for Joe! I personally think he does an awesome job as playing Stefano. As the saying goes…he who lives in a glass house shouldn’t throw stones.
michael,something is going on here ,Im loosing everything I am posting ,Im writing this for a 3rd time ,looks like lisa rinna still has her foot in her mouth,her lips are huge ,way to go joe ,you let her have it .lisa called herself stupid for what she said ,she has a point there .stupid,self centered ,stuck up,no more about her.
Yes, I was replying to a post of Heather’s earlier. I had spent 1 hour on it ON and OFF while working, then….. ALL a sudden my page disappeared. And what came up was this page about Joe Mascolo.
Do U notice how when U click on people’s comments on the Homepage, it NEVER takes you DIRECTLY to the persons comment, it clicks to it and then AWAY from it, and then…………….. U have to STROLL all the WAY wherever to find the persons name and comment. OMG! What happened? It use to not be like that on this site. U click on the persons comment in Recent Chatter and it would GO RIGHT TO THE PERSONS comment. Michael, PLEASE fix it. When there are long pages of post, sometimes it can take 5 minutes to find the comment.
I love Lisa Rinna but her comments were uncalled for. If Mascolo is such a bad actor, then how come he has been with the show for 30 years?
1loveabcsoaps, you never told me that you were a fan of The Talk. Too each his own, I guess. LOL. Heck, many people on this site admitted that they love The Talk or The Chew. Thank god I have not come across yet on someone that watches The Revolution.
I love Joe! I love what he said. We all know who can act and who can’t and Joe is one of the best actors on the show, They’re lucky to have him!!!
Couldn’t! Have said it any better. Mr. Mascolo is extremely talented and part of the reason I have enjoyed DOOL for many, many years. He is super classy and deserving or respect and Lisa Rinna should think before she speaks.
I AGREE JENN D JOE MASCOLO IS THE BEST ACTOR ON DAYS 30 YRS
SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. LISA RINNA SHOULD KEEP HER BIG MOUTH AND I MEAN BIG MOUTH LIPS INCLUDED SHUT. WE NEED TO SAVE OUR SOAPS
THE ONES THAT ARE LEFT ON AIR AND SHE SHOULD BE THANKFUL BECAUSE WITHOUT DAYS SHE WOULD BE A NOBODY BECAUSE I SEEM TO REMEMBER IF I AM CORRECT SHE STARTED ON DAYS MANY YRS AGO AND PERHAPS SHE MAY THANK THEM FOR HER CAREER AND WITH
THE HELP OF JOE MASCOLO AND THE DIMERA FAMILY IT MAY HAVE HELPED HER HAVE A JOB.
Neither one of them does anything for me. I think it is time for Stefano to go! But I especially had a hard time watching Lisa as Billie Reed. Her cosmetic work is so obvious, too. She almost looks creepy now! The lips are too large and the cheeks too plumped!
I love Joe & have enjoyed him [and his acting] ever since he joined Days. Lisa Rinna is a big girl who has been in the public eye for decades. She’s not a novice & therefore should be able to handle a timebomb of a question without a problem. A simple “no comment” or “everyone of them is terrific” would have done the trick. I don’t blame Andy Cohen for asking the question. I blame her for a thoughtless and WRONG answer. Personally, I can’t stand her as Billie. I’d love to see Stefano present her with a pair of cement shoes!
This is the first time I’ve see her on the show, today. I am a new viewer. Like a yr or maybe a little longer. Dont think Ive ever seen her really ACT in anything. but I have seen her on Kelly, and around lets say.And maybe she should take a look in the mirror, before speaking ? maybe? at least be a little humble to a fellow soap actor? They are few and leaving…
should I go there… ~ #GH #ATWT #GL#AMC#OLTL~
I could do without Billie Reed on my soap, Days, but Stefano Dimera is indispensable. I love him. We are lucky to see such a class act. He has a lot of depth and real talents and interests. Bravo, Signor Mascolo!
They should have Stefano kill Billie! Can’t stand Lisa Rinna! ugh
Couldn’t agree more!!!!
thats a good Idea.
EVERYONE…… in Barbara t’s words: (See Full post below) 3/10/ 7:33am
-how bad those lips look
-I had to walk up close to the television ,there still blown up
-but for big lipped lisa to make a comment about big lipped taylor
-leave the lips alone
-why do they want to look like a fish mouthwhen someone is taking there picture,god forbid they stick those lips out like there is no end to them,yuk.
Barbara: Your sick…. what are you on? Lmao!
Donald Trump gave Lisa a compliment about her lips looking better on The Apprentice and it went to her head, enough for her to speak of someone else’s lips. She walked right into this. It’s her own making this negative publicity, basically because of her Ego and Drama Appeal. Lord, I know if I were Lisa and read your post: ” I had to walk up to my television, there still blown up.” hehe ha ha!
(Now let me look up this Taylor Armstrong bc I don’t look at those shows).
Good, put that little hussy in her place!
Joe Mascolo is a class act, and he just proved it again today. No doubt about it. He who laughs last, laughs best.
I am so glad that to hear that Joe Mascolo answered back in the way I knew he would! He is a class act, a respectable man and said exactly what Lisa Rinna needed to hear. How dare she say “Yes” to Andy Cohen that he was the worst actor on DAYS. It was a tactless, tacky and ridiculous comment to make. Joseph Mascolo is one of the BEST SOAP VILLIANS EVER. He is a highly regarded actor to Days and the acting community, period! Your fans are behind you 100% Joe!
I agree with both Lisa and Joe: she was stupid and he was right referring to her as a pot calling the kettle black. Hopefully, Lisa will schedule surgery to reduce her lips and to reconnect her brain with her mouth (followed by classes in acting and manners).
The weird thing-I thought she already had her surgery to fix her lips! I watched her “reality”show last fall-Harry Loves Lisa, I think it was called & I think she’s already had the surgery! Maybe it didn’t work? I bet she is sorry she did this interview-what a way to start her new stint on Days!
Yes, she did already have reconstructive surgery, but after I saw her on DOOL today, I still couldn’t believe how big her lips were and that she made this obnoxious comment about someone else needing corrective surgery. It’s easy enough to feel sorry for people whose cosmetic alterations have turned out poorly, but when Lisa starts criticizing other people’s lips (which don’t look as bad as hers), enough already.
she did ,a while back they showed pictures of her after the work was done,they looked big yesterday and I made a remark about how bad those lips look ,I had to walk up close to the television ,there still blown up,taylor armstrong really, really looks bad ,but for big lipped lisa to make a comment about big lipped taylor makes no sense and If you ask me they both look awful,big lips and all.why white women have that done and think it looks good ,I dont understand .leave the lips alone ,why do they want to look like a fish mouth,and when someone is taking there picture,god forbid they stick those lips out like there is no end to them,yuk.
Ut oh ooooo! lmoa!
taylor armstrongs lips are long across and puffy ,she looks like a clown,lisa rinna looks like the joker from batman.how can they look into a mirror and think that look is sexy and looks good ,it doesnt.
I cant stand donald trump with that woody woodpecker look of his ,but seriously he talked about lisa rinnas lips?someone else here said the same thing I did ,when she was on friday her lips are still huge so how big were they before the surgery? thats alot of lip and I hear there is no feelings in them ,its a filler of some kind.good lord,is it the same stuff these crazy women put in there rear ends to make that bigger?fake hair,fake faces ,fake lips ,fake boobs,fake asses,there not real any of them,as I said before I can find better things to do with my money and live with what I got.
Rinna opened mouth and insert foot disease ..Mr Mascolo is a class act I only watch when he is on and that’s saying something and to have someone who is between Jobs has the nerve to say Mr Mascolo was the worst actor..she must meant herself..she is not fit to stand in Joe Mascolo shadow
Time to bring back one of the better Billie’s
Oh my god…what is she even talking about. She’s one not that great of an actress.
I felt sorry for Lisa Rinna when she got treated so unfairly by star jones on the apprentice, but after hearing this, i’m not so sorry anymore, it was in bad taste, and for someone who has been in the business for so long, she should know better on how to avoid answering ” trick” questions, so to me she clearly intended to say what she said, or agree with what was said. either way, who cares, lol, just about everyone on DOOL is a bad actor, including Lisa Rinna.
Tell it Aria… lmao with a glass of wine late at night on this site as usual..!
cool ,star jones really treated lisa rinna like crap?I would have loved to see that ,but I cant stand the guy with all the hair piled up in the front of his head, I know once I hit the submit I will think of his name .he reminds me of woody the woodpecker,or is is woody woodpecker.
Lol, Donald trump the apprentice, it was last season n believe me, star jones showed her up big time, it made you feel sorry for Lisa rinna, but clearly she was out of her league cause she came across as weak, and star jones being the bitch she is ate her up.
I would have loved to see that ,donald trump or not.
As I seem to recall , Lisa Rinna is not exactly Vanessa Redgrave herself:)
Lisa Rinna is Drama. It’s all in her body language! You can spot Drama a mile away in people’s actions. She needs too much attention, and what little of her persona that is mainstream is all hype- feed off the drama of her personality.
you got that right ,google her name, she lets it all hang out in playboy,thats how she met her husband.so does she like attention ,you bet she does.I believe her playboy spread was her first move at wanting people to look at her.
I dont believe for a second that womans lips are reduced,she still looks like she has fish lips,ugly.
My God. lol
lisa rinna needs to be ashamed of herself for her comment – she needs to stop & access her own talents if one could call it that………………..smh
Stirring the pot, I guess more people will tune in to DOOL, good job Lisa!!!
What was she on to say something like that?
First of all I want to say that I think Joe Mascolo is a very good actor. Lisa Rinna was wrong to make a comment like that. Salem would not be thr same without Stefano. And I would like to know what Lisa did to her face, she looks Porcelain!!! And my hats off to you my Paisan, keep up the good work. I love your acting!!!
Wow Lisa, It is perfectly alright to keep some things to yourself!
Joseph Mascolo is a very gifted and talented actor!
I have enjoyed and hope to continue to enjoy his work for years to come!!!
You made an error, Lisa. Why do talk shows play such dumb games with their guests?
lisa rinnas lips are bigger today then they were last friday,guestion for the days of our lives watcher,Is kate billies mother?seriously ,lisa rinna is not that young of a chick,maybe its her lips but kate looks younger and is way better looking.
you know when amc & oltl went off the air I started watching Y&R, DOOL & B&B to ease the pain if possible (it didn’t but it helped a little) of all 3 soaps DOOL I have started liking the best, though some of the core couples are really weird..the storylines move fast & are interesting for the most part…I have liked Lisa Rinna in the past but her face doesn’t even look like her anymore because of the plastic surgery..Kate looks younger than the woman who is supposed to be her daughter..& she is prettier..not that makes a good or bad actress but let’s face it..soaps have pretty people we like to look at & poor Lisa what has she done to herself?? So money doesn’t always make it better I guess if you have enuff money to mess your face up..because you can’t live with what you were given..I don’t have anything against plastic surgery but some people should have to go to therapy after they have had so many procedures…it’s kinda distracting..jmo
Oh yeah, the other thing I wanted to post is that she shouldn’t say bad things about her co-workers when she is not exactly Bette Davis…
I actually felt it was a breath of fresh air to hear an actor actually tell the interviewer what they think. So often actors pretend to act like everyone they work with is awesome and great. Some say its class and respect, personally I think it is butt kissing. You are never going to find or make a good actor if you always pat people on the back and say they are great. Now the only thing she could have done better was be more constructive with her criticism. You know, detail why she thinks he is a bad actor and what could be improved. Likewise she would have to take the same criticism if someone felt she wasn’t holding up either.
he;s a wonderful actor just get him better writers for him thats the trouble!!!!!!!!!!!!
JM is Stefano! He not only portrays him, but becomes him. I have found all of his performances have been right on target whether he is playing a villain, strong business man, emotional father, or warm grandfather. He scenes are engaging, heartfelt, and powerful. I have always enjoyed watching him even if I did not always like what his character was going. JM always portrayed him accurately, appropriately, and with the right tone! Kudos to JM! We hope we can continue watching his grace, style, charm, charisma, and savoir faire on Days ! 🙂
He is by far the best actor on Days and he was also fantastic on BOLD. He is truly on the Soap greats.
Lisa is in now way in the same class as Joe, never could/will she ever be!
He is an outstanding actor , always has been and I’m reminded again this week, what with Lexie;s sickness. He is awesome. She a no-talent want-a-be.
Mr. Mas Colo is an extrodinary actor! Whoever can t see that is blind! The worst actress I have ever seen is LauraLee Bell. Absolutely horrible acting abilities. Her parents should have spent their money on about 100 yrs. Of acting school for her.She has no emotion. She stays on the same tone all the time in her voice. Terrible terrible acting! I guess when Daddy runs the show it doesn’t matter. Go back to Washington D.C. and get out of Genoa City Christine and don t return!
