INTERVIEW: Y&R's Elizabeth Hendrickson

1 Former ALL MY CHILDREN lesbian icon Elizabeth Hendrickson turned a throwaway part into "one of 2008’s best new roles" on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS. Find out what she really thinks of AMC’s handling of Bianca and Maggie’s love story — and Eden Riegel’s new love interest in a new interview with TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco. "Eden’s mine, dammit! I’m so jealous that she has a new girlfriend. I haven’t seen Bianca and Reese’s debut yet, but I taped it. I’m so excited Eden’s back on AMC. She’s by far the most talented woman I’ve ever worked with. We’ve become very close friends — and we miss each other so much. I’m sure she’s going to take the show by storm." She also talks about her role as Chloe on Y&R. "They didn’t tell me anything until I had to know. I’ve dealt with that for years on AMC; that’s how soaps work. I am a newbie, so I’m not going to give my two cents. I just told Y&R, give what you want, and I’ll act it out to the best of my ability. As an actor, I created an initial back story for Chloe, so I could explain her behaviour at first. When they finally told me her real back story, I was so happy because I could finally make Chloe three-dimensional."

Susan Lucci has been eliminated from DANCING WITH THE STARS

1 Susan Lucci's story line on DANCING WITH THE STARS has come to an end. The ALL MY CHILDREN actress and her professional partner, Tony Dovolani, have been eliminated from ABC's popular dancing competition. The pair received the judges' lowest score - 24 out of 30 - for their paso doble routine Monday. After viewer votes were combined with the judges' scores, the Daytime Emmy-winning soap star was dismissed. Lucci says the work was definitely worth it. She said she had an incredible time on the show and leaves with an experience she will never forget. For the first time in the competition, the dancers were split into two groups on Monday's performance show. Lucci headed Team Cha-Cha with actor Cody Linley and singer Lance Bass, scoring a 20 from the judges. Former football star Warren Sapp led Team Paso Doble with TV personality Brooke Burke and Olympic gold medalist Maurice Greene, nabbing a score of 29. Carrie Ann Inaba called Team Cha-Cha's out-of-sync routine "brutal." The judges asked Team Paso Doble to perform an encore of their high-energy number at the beginning of Wednesday's results show. The scores for the team routines were combined with the partner dance scores and viewer votes to determine that Lucci would be sent back to Pine Valley. Burke, Bass, Greene, Linley and Sapp will continue in the competition. Previously dismissed celebrities include: actress Cloris Leachman; singer Toni Braxton; chef Rocco DiSpirito; reality TV star Kim Kardashian; actor Ted McGinley and comedian Jeffrey Ross.
