Young and Restless: Michelle Stafford Talks To Nelson Branco


Michelle Stafford recently did an interview with TV Guide Canada's Nelson Branco in which she revealed some more of Lynn Marie Latham's impact on the Young & Restless. We're posted an excerpt below from the interview but you'll want to be sure to check it out in its entirety.

TVG: You gotta show “The Stafford” the cash! It wasn’t too long ago you played the dual role of Phyllis and Sheila for one salary! What about Phyllis’s fashion sense? It’s been “evolving” over the past year, non?
MS: Her fashion sense is rather tame now. When Lynn came in she didn’t want the cleave, especially in the workplace. And I agreed with her. There was a lot of stuff she didn’t like, and I’m not trying to pin this on her, but she wanted a different look for the soap, so our wardrobe person pulled back on everyone. It was a bummer because fashion is a huge component in my character’s life. So when Phyllis wears jeans and T-shirts, I try to make it work.

Oh and did we mention there is a great bit about Michelle Stafford's Phyllis and Victoria Rowell's Dru?


No cleavage in the

No cleavage in the workplace? This is a soap not a autoparts manufacturer! What would daytime be without boobs?

Well to tell you the truth,

Well to tell you the truth, I don't agree with Nelson Branco, about almost everything!

I love MS, and too bad NB did not have the guts to asks real interesting question!

LML had a reputation to be closed friend with MS, and Phyllis took over at Y&R under her. Is it true? THAT I would like to know!

Even as a fan I was tired of seeing her all the times!

As for his statement: Are you surprised at how popular Nick and Phyllis are as a couple?

Is he kidding? A lot of Phyllis fan hate her with dimwit Nick! A lot of Sharon-Nick fans hate them!

She lost all her spunk since she is with him, and now she is as boring as the rest of them! i still hope it is until the new HW give us good stories!

Anyhoo, love MS she is great, but bring back the real Phyllis and leave that Phyllis pod somewhere else!
