2009’s Sexiest Couple Alive: Otalia


TV Guide Canada has named GUIDING LIGHT's Olivia and Natalia as this year's "Sexiest Couple Alive".

Nelson Branco writes: "In an age of contrived and soulless couples, Olivia and Natalia’s burgeoning romance felt natural, innocent, and most importantly, real."

Well said.

Otalia mania is spreading and kudos just keep pouring in for this duo. The Otalia fan site has grown to over 1,100 members in only a couple of months and the Otalia YouTube channel is regularly one of the most viewed.

  11. They really are and not just for the obvious reasons. The biggest reason is because the show has let this coupling slowly simmer for a year. They have put all the right spices into the mix. They aren't missing a beat. Otalia is the perfect recipe for romance because the pairing was arced each step of the way. Unlike the rest of daytime GL seems to be making the 'get back to basics' work for them. For that I applaud GL. Thanks for always having room to give the Otalia storyline and it's coverage the kudos it deserves.

  14. finally, nelson is on the otalia bandwagon. this love story is the most moving, emotionally raw, realistic story line on television.

    i am so thankful everyday for this storyline. as so many others have expressed over on the otaliafans forum over the last couple of weeks, this story continues to reflect back so many truisms from my life, from my friends' lives, from everyone's life. and our lives will never be the same.

  15. Otalia is a force to be reconned with. They are fabulous.

    BTW, I like Kool and the Gang being featured today.

    Oh Yes, it's Ladies Night...

  16. It's a great, slow-building soap story like the ones they used to write! I'd never watched Guiding Light before but I tuned in a month ago and I'm hooked!

  17. Again, thanks for the coverage.

    With this storyline and these actresses, you not only get sexy, you get sublime performances. This could be what not only saves "Guiding Light" but what re-ignites the entire genre.

  18. Thanks for all the coverage.
    GL's Otalia is the hottest thing since sliced bread and Brangelina. Otalia is rockin the socks off of not only daytime and the wide world of soaps, but the entire realm of TV Land altogether.

  19. Hell yeah!

    Yep, Otalia is a fantastically written, realistically timed romance of EPIC proportions!

    Chalk me in as yet another person who hasn't watched soaps since her teens (37 now), and is completely hooked on this one.

    If GL keeps playing their cards right with this couple, it could be their pot of gold.

    It certainly is mine. :)

  20. Yes! Nelson gets it right.

    This couple signifies what a love story written well truly is. The slow development has rung true for me and many, many others. I can relate to both characters in so many aspects it's impossible to pick just one reason why I love them as a couple. Physical characteristics aside, the characters so very well complement each other; when one is down and sad or ill, the other looks out for her and vice versa. They take care of each other and Olivia's daughter and Natalia's son. They've picked up several of the other's mannerisms and characteristics at times, too.

    Both have changed, and for the better, in my opinion. Otalia is a force to be reckoned with and hopefully a long term supercouple.

  21. Thanks for your lovely words about Otalia. It is a wonderful love story, that's how it's being written and that's how it's being portrayed. If you have ever been in love, you have to fall in love with these two people and their story. The amount of fans now, is way past the number they mentioned in this article, It is worldwide and growing. This is the closest group I've seen to the Xenaverse ever. The Xenaverse is the enormous fanbase that gathered in honor of Xena and Gabrielle from Xena: Warrior Princess fame. It too, was a force to be reckoned with. And still is. Otaliaitis is getting there very rapidly. We want it to continue. Sexy, this couple define the word!!
