News for the week of 08-Jun-2015

Congratulations to Tracey E. Bregman (Lauren) for another achievement: On June 6, Bregman and musician Moby received special honors for their animal activism from the people at the National Museum of Animals & Society in its first annual gala.

Bregman’s also joining the third season of the faux-reality webseries, Living With Models. But that can’t happen without $20,000 from supporters. Living With Models’ third season relies on a Kickstarter campaign currently in progress (37 backers, 37 more days left as of Saturday).

Gossip for the week of 08-Jun-2015

It gets uglier by the week. Victoria Rowell (ex-Druscilla) now charges former co-star Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki) with racism and hate speech in her ongoing lawsuit against CBS/Sony. Based on what? Rowell alleged that Thomas Scott “ran onto the set dancing wildly and wearing an oversized Afro wig to mock Ms. Rowell’s Afro-styled hair that day.” Rowell also threw Michelle Stafford (ex-Phyllis) and Peter Bergman (Jack) into the lawsuit allegations by accusing them of contributing to her torment on-set. An excerpt from SoapHub’s Carol Boorom, June 5: “Rowell claims that … Stafford … called Rowell, ‘A freak’ and then screamed, ‘No one here likes you,’ but also spit on her along with director Noel Maxam and Producer Edward Scott. She also claimed that Peter Bergman (Jack Abbott) called her ‘mentally unstable.’ She claims that because of this abuse, she felt she had to leave the show.” Boorom posted a petition and a tweet #dru4diversity to support Rowell.

Rowell tweeted June 4: “Michelle Stafford admitted in TVGuide Canada, the disgusting tactic to spit on me while I worked on CBS stages was premeditated & complicit” and “Young & Restless union actors, Peter Bergman & Melody Thomas Scott are mentioned in lawsuit due to extreme behavior.” www.dru4diversity.com
