David Hasselhoff Vs. Stephen Nichols

Propaganda

David Hasselhoff - (Knight Rider, Baywatch) - No text propaganda

Stephen Nichols - (Days of Our Lives (1985-2004)) - Nichols shot to stardom and leading man status in 1985 playing bad boy with a heart of gold Steve "Patch" Johnson on Days of Our Lives. Soap operas were still in their heyday back then, and afternoon TV was filled with a plethora of hot actors creating memorable characters, but Nichols stood out from the beginning. Not just a pretty face, he earned an Emmy nomination and five Soap Opera Digest Awards for Best Actor in his first five years with the show. I feel it is safe to say he fueled a lot of fantasies for Days fans over the years.

Llanview's Leading Ladies Let Loose

"We are family" might be the new motto for ONE LIFE TO LIVE's Cramer women. United in the pursuit of fame, fortune and a fabulous wardrobe, these ladies have decided that they can get what they want without the help of the opposite sex. (From left) Kassie DePaiva (Blair), Gina Tognoni (Kelly), Robin Strasser (Dorian) and *Laura Koffman (Cassie) sat down with Soap Opera Digest for a no-holds-barred chat at the chi chi Cafe des Aristes restaurant in New York City.

Digest: What's the best thing that's happened to you this year?

Strasser: It's a little self-serving, but winning the Soap Opera Digest Award has to be right up there. That was a big thrill.

DePaiva, Koffman and Tognoni in unison: Very well deserved.

Strasser: I hate that expression, girls.

DePaiva: Robin hates any compliment you ever give her...

Tognoni: ... while she's working.

Strasser: And I'm a little superstitious, too. After dress rehearsal, they'll say, "Oh, that was so good." I'm like, "Don't tell me."

DePaiva: She thinks we're complimenting her, but we're not. I'm trying to tell her she sucks.

Strasser: Thank you for sharing, Kassie.

DePaiva: Actually, her wardrobe is what's working (smiles). There have been some dresses she's worn that I'll say, "I'm sorry, I cannot work with this. She has those big boobies; I can't work with her."

Strasser: (Ray, the stage manager) always says, "We're just trying to make the material more uplifting."

DePaiva: It's like, never work with babies, animals or Robin's breasts. You just can't compete.

Tognoni: You should see her when she has that negligee stuff on.

Koffman: Thank God, Cassie never walked in on it!

Strasser: All right, was that dress too low-cut for the Soap Opera Digest Awards? Yes, it was, but I had never worn anything like that. Even my mother was astonished.

Koffman: Everybody said you looked so fabulous.

Tognoni: You looked great.

Strasser: I got nailed by the New York Daily News for wearing too low-cut a dress and they said Gina's was...

Tognoni: Too frumpy. We both made the paper.

Strasser: Patricia Mauceri (Carlotta) and I once made "Worst Dressed" in the Enquirer. We didn't deserve it. It was the hottest day, 104 degrees, and we were at a blood drive. We were giving up our time for a fund-raiser and we got nailed for wearing flowered dresses.

DePaiva: If I wore Blair's dresses out in the street, I would be acosted!

Strasser: Just because they don't cover your rear end?

DePaiva: They don't cover my rear end, they don't cover my boobs. I love Susan Gammie (OLTL costume designer) but she...

Strasser: ... undresses you.

Digest: And how about you, Gina?

Tognoni: I was nominated for a Soap Opera Digest Award - that was fantastic. It was the first time I'd ever been nominated for anything.

DePaiva: Won't be the last, honey.

Strasser: She's the best young actress I've ever worked with - and I've worked with plenty.

Digest: Which OLTL actor would you like to work with that you haven't already?

DePaiva: I think Laura (as Cassie) should have a fantasy sequence. In each scene a different actor comes in and takes his clothes off and she sleeps with him. The first scene should be with Kevin Stapleton (Kevin).

Koffman: I like him.

DePaiva: There was a scene where Cassie is supposed to be speechless when she sees Kevin without his shirt on. (In real life) Laura said, "Oh my God."

Koffman: I was so mortified, he opens up the door and I was like (shows a stunned look). I blew all my lines.

DePaiva: It was right on cue.

Koffman: And Robyn Goodman (supervising producer) said, "Nice chest, huh Laura?"

Strasser: Does he have a nice chest?

DePaiva: Yes.

Digest: Who would you like to work with, Gina?

Tognoni: Susan Haskell (Marty). I think she's awesome. And Thorsten Kaye (Patrick). I had a few scenes with him. Man, he's so there. He's sooo there.

Koffman: I never worked with Roger Howarth (Todd).

Digest: You'd like to work with Roger?

Koffman: Oh yeah, in a minute.

Strasser: I would love to work with Bob Woods (Bo). Years and years ago, Dorian and Bo went on a date. He took off his cowboy hat and planted one on me. It was enjoyable. They never let me do a scene with him again. Broke my heart.

Digest: Let's do a male word association. I'll name a co-star and you tell me the first word that pops into your head. We'll start with Thorsten Kaye.

Tognoni: Sexy.

Strasser: Wow. Wow.

DePaiva: Lovely.

Digest: John Loprieno (Cord).

Tognoni: He's really sweet.

Koffman: Brilliant.

Strasser: Dreamboat.

DePaiva: Precious. He's going to hate us, you know that.

Digest: Nathan Fillion (Joey).

DePaiva: Nathan is the best.

Tognoni: He's a brilliant comedian.

Koffman: He gives a lot of love and he needs a lot of love.

Strasser: Look how much he's changed in just the last year and a half. He's a major player and we'll all be very proud to have known him.

Digest: Phil Carey (Asa).

Tognoni: Curmudgeon. Hilarious.

Koffman: I love him. He's great.

Strasser: Bigger than life.

DePaiva: I love him. And I love working with him.

Digest: Moving on to dressing rooms - whose is the messiest?

Strasser and DePaiva: Probably mine.

DePaiva: Laura and I share a room. She is clean. When I moved in with her, she told me where I could hang my pictures.

Koffman: I did not.

DePaiva: Yes, you did. You hung them for me, actually.

Digest: Let's talk wardrobe.

DePaiva: We need to get Dorian a new wardrobe. I'm taking her shopping.

Strasser: My mom thanks you. Actually, if there's anybody who need to be taken shopping, it's Cassie.

Koffman: Agreed.

DePaiva: When you start doing Kevin.

All: Oooohhh.

DePaiva: I see that coming around the corner. Of course, last week, Dorian says, "Come on Cassie, aren't you tired of that reverend?" I thought I would...

Koffman: Die.

Digest: What film actor would you love to work with?

Koffman: Kevin Bacon. I find him amazing.

DePaiva: He's over at my gym all the time. I would love to work with John Travolta. I think my energy could work off him. That'd be fun.

Strasser: Robert DeNiro and Liam Neeson. In separate scenes. And Tommy Lee Jones. Yep, darn it. I didn't play the part then, but Dorian apparently had an affair with Tommy Lee Jones' character (Dr. Mark Toland, 1971-1975)

Koffman: I love Harrison Ford. I saw him once in Sloan's supermarket at 10 o'clock at night. I said to him, "I love your work, forever." Forever? Shit! He looked at me and said, "Thanks." For three days, I kept thinking, "What a jerk I am. What a jerk!"

Digest: Is there an initiation ritual you go through when you do your first love scene on the show?

Tognoni: They took my underwear and hung it on the flagpole.

Koffman: Ugghhh!

Tognoni: Joking.

Digest: Is it awkward doing a love scene?

Koffman: They're the hardest.

DePaiva: Love scenes are not ad-libbed; they're choreographed.

Strasser: You wouldn't want to do a love scene with somebody who you didn't like the taste, smell, or feel of - that's a lot like life.

DePaiva: I worked with an actor for a year and a half who didn't want to do love scenes with me. He was very uncomfortable with sexual scenes. That's very difficult, but you have to do the best you can and try not to take it personally.

Digest: What's the most revealing outfit you've had to wear on the show?

DePaiva: I had to strip down to a bra and panties. You feel extremely naked. I've also done love scenes where I just have pasties on.

Tognoni: I just did that last week.

Strasser: I don't wear pasties.

Tognoni: You don't wear anything?

Strasser: No.

DePaiva: Good for you.

Strasser: If something showed, I would rather they cut the tape than have that Band-Aid shot.

Koffman: So you don't wear anything?

Strasser: I wear underwear but I don't wear anything up above.

Digest: What do you think about the Cramer women uniting?

DePaiva: I think it's very interesting and very dynamic.

Strasser: It's a good family unit.

Koffman: I'm just hoping that it keeps developing. It's so powerful.

DePaiva: I think women's issues can be dealt with. And we could talk about self-esteem.

Tognoni: Even though Kelly doesn't have any.

DePaiva: See, that's something. Neither does Blair. I think the Cramer women can put the "fun" in dysfunction.

Digest: And what would you like to do as a united family?

Tognoni: Kick some butt!

Affleck also acknowledged the contrast between his and Lopez’s approaches to fame, noting that she has always been more comfortable in the spotlight. “My temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and private than hers,” he admitted. While reflecting on their differences, he reiterated that there is no bad blood between them, expressing deep respect for his former wife. “I hope I was clear that really this is somebody I have a lot of respect for,” he told GQ. “I have nothing but respect.” 2.

Stay in the know with our Rave News Digest, which summarizes five of the hottest global news stories you need to catch up on, saving you time and energy. Consider it your daily news fix. Here is a rundown of five of the hottest news topics… 1. Ben Affleck opens up to GQ Magazine about Jennifer Lopez divorce Ben Affleck on his divorce: “I have nothing but respect. I guess there’s a tendency to look at breakups and want to identify root causes or something. But honestly, like I said, the truth is much more quotidian… there’s no scandal, no soap opera.” pic.twitter.com/wXfOxb587j — GQ Magazine (@GQMagazine) March 25, 2025 Ben Affleck has finally addressed his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, sharing a candid perspective on their highly publicized relationship in an April cover story for GQ Magazine. The 52-year-old actor reflected on their 2024 split, dismissing speculation that Lopez’s documentary, “Greatest Love Story Never Told,” played a significant role in their breakup. “It’s not like you can watch that documentary and go, ‘Oh, now I understand the issues that these two had,’” Affleck explained, emphasizing that their separation was a complex, private matter rather than a scandal or dramatic falling-out. Affleck also acknowledged the contrast between his and Lopez’s approaches to fame, noting that she has always been more comfortable in the spotlight. “My temperament is to be a little bit more reserved and private than hers,” he admitted. While reflecting on their differences, he reiterated that there is no bad blood between them, expressing deep respect for his former wife. “I hope I was clear that really this is somebody I have a lot of respect for,” he told GQ. “I have nothing but respect.” 2.

Zozibini stunned in an off-shoulder bridal gown designed by Vietnamese couturier Phan Huy. The exquisite dress, which took three months and over 700 hours to create, featured intricate hand-cut floral appliqués and a veil adorned with over 300 organza flowers. The 3D floral branches were carefully crafted by a team of artisans using 14 different types of beads and stones, adding a touch of ethereal elegance to her bridal look. While the couple has largely kept their relationship out of the public eye, their wedding announcement was met with an outpouring of love and congratulations from fans worldwide. 5.

Lillard, 34, is taking blood-thinning medication and will be sidelined indefinitely as he undergoes regular testing. The seven-time All-NBA guard has already missed the last three games, and while the team has not provided a timeline for his return, they emphasized that his health remains the top priority. Bucks general manager Jon Horst reassured fans that Lillard’s condition is being carefully monitored and that doctors believe the situation is unlikely to recur. In a statement to NBA reporter Chris Haynes, Lillard expressed his disappointment about the unexpected health setback but acknowledged the importance of prioritizing his well-being. “As much as I love basketball, I need to be there for my kids and my family,” he said. He also praised the Bucks’ medical staff for their swift response in diagnosing and managing his condition. The team confirmed that his medication has stabilized the thrombosis, and they will continue to assess his recovery on a weekly basis. Lillard is the second high-profile player this season to be sidelined due to DVT, a condition that involves the formation of blood clots inside a blood vessel.
