Daytime soaps come to life on Strand
About 250 fans gathered Saturday during a VIP event at Myrtle Beach Convention Center to meet some of CBS' most popular daytime soap stars.
"They're in my living room, and no one calls at that time as they know I'm watching it or I won't answer the phone," said Y&R fan Kathy Whisnant as she waited to see "Adam" and "Phyllis" at Saturday's Soapstar Spectacular.

Alison Sweeney Reminisces On MTV's WHEN I WAS 17
"I had a scene with the girl who plays my sister, and Carrie was teaching Sami how to French kiss and Carrie said, 'Well, you can practice on your hand.' So we had a whole scene where we're literally making out with our hands. Making kissing noises, like actually kissing our hands," she recalled. "Six weeks later, I'm in my U.S. history class and the teacher had a VCR that was broken so he had to go get another one. And while we were waiting for him to come back, the kids are like, 'Let's watch 'Days of our Lives.' " And just like some loopy daytime-TV plot twist, the embarrassing make-out scene Sweeney had taped earlier was playing, much to the amusement of her fellow high-schoolers.
"It was so horrifying and I didn't know what to do. I thought about breaking the TV but I sat there at my desk and I just put my hands in my desk and covered my face," she said. "I was so mortified."
