While it has yet to even be confirmed that “The Young and the Restless'” Eileen Davidson (Ashley Abbott) has joined the cast of Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” much less the rumored $750,000 payday she’s reportedly said to be receiving for working on the reality series – a record for a new cast member – Radar Online is reporting that Davidson is already feuding with co-star Kim Richards.

Summer may be over, but “The Young and the Restless” is keeping it hot with a special guest appearance by real-life Chippendales dancer Jaymes Vaughan, who’s scheduled to put on a seriously sexy strip show during Sharon’s (Sharon Case) upcoming bachelorette party! But what exactly can viewers expect when he hits the scene? Soap Opera Network caught up with the dancer, who bared all in an interview regarding his time in Genoa City.

As previously reported, “The Young and the Restless'” Nicholas (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) are heading down the aisle one more time, but before the happy occasion can take place, they along with several of their closest friends and family members are heading to lockup! Set to air on Tuesday, September 30, CBS has released a first look clip of the pre-celebration of the joining of the high school sweethearts, who are determined to put the past behind them and face the future together once more.

Just as Nicholas (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) get ready to head down the aisle one more time, cast members from CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” took time out of their busy schedule to pose for their mug shots in a hilarious photo gallery posted on Entertainment Tonight‘s website. If you thought it was all for laughs, however, think again!

With his character married to Summer (Hunter King), following an altercation with Paul (Doug Davidson) that resulted in Genoa City’s top cop getting shot, it was only a matter of time before “The Young and the Restless” locked down actor Matthew Atkinson (Austin) with a contract. CBS Soaps In Depth is reporting the soap has done just that!

All we can say about the season three finale of TNT’s primetime soap, “Dallas,” is holy sheep sh*%#t! A promo for the popular series teased that an Ewing was going to die in last night’s September 22 episode, and by golly, the show followed through: Christopher Ewing (played by former “Passions” star Jesse Metcalf) died in a fiery car explosion, much to the horror of audiences everywhere!

Famous funnyman Fred Willard is set to make his “The Bold and the Beautiful” debut as Eric’s (John McCook) brother, John Forrester, next week! To celebrate his arrival, Soap Opera Network took part in a special press event where the celebrated comedian shared all the deets about his daytime gig, including working with the sudser’s cast, staying PG for family audiences and what viewers can really expect from the zany character once he crashes Forrester Creations. Read on for the scoop!

As “General Hospital” fans know, nobody knows how to host a party quite like Standing Sun winery owner Laura Wright (Carly Corinthos). And the actress is bumping up her game with a new twist: The actress and her husband, John Wright, have added an art gallery and a singer/song-writer music series to their Santa Barbara winery and will be hosting an all-day Harvest Blues Festival in the space this month!

Well, it looks like the cat is out of the bag: “Dancing With the Stars” judge Julianne Hough accidentally let it slip that “DWTS” contestant Jonathan Bennett (ex-J.R. Chandler, “All My Children”) is gay!

On Wednesday, October 1, CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” welcomes actor Scott Elrod to the cast as Joe Clark, Avery’s (Jessica Collins) ex-husband.

In a newly released promo, the network touts the actor/character as being tall, dark and restless. Of course, “the fun is just beginning” and Elrod can’t wait to take on Genoa City and, more importantly, confront Dylan McAvoy (Steve Burton), who began an affair with his legal eagle ex all those years ago, especially since Dylan had initially suspected Clark for possibly having a role in the stalking of Avery earlier this year.
