Making The Scene
Wrinkle Free Zone
As soon as John Driscoll (Coop, GL) landed in L.A. that afternoon, he bought his party outfit at Urban Outfitters. However, his shirt was the same one he wore when he recently guested on Martha Stewart's talk show for a segment on ironing tips. "Martha herself pressed this shirt," boasted Driscoll. "I'm going to auction it off for charity."

"I can't wait to see all my old PORT CHARLES castmates, like Thorsten [Kaye, Zach, AMC; ex-Ian] and Michael Easton [John, OLTL; ex-Stephen/ex-Caleb]. Also, I'm looking forward to seeing Kelly [Monaco, Sam, GH; ex-Livvie/ex-Tess]," noted Marie Wilson (Meg, ATWT; ex-Karen).

Fan-Tastic!
Rachel Melvin (Chelsea, DAYS) made sure to meet the ALL MY CHILDREN cast since she watches the show. "Oh, my gosh, I felt like such a nerd because seriously, those are the only people that I was like, ‘I have to meet! I have to meet!' " she said. "After the Emmys, we went to the ABC after-party and I met Michael [B. Jordan], who plays Reggie. I met Leven [Rambin], who plays Lily, Rebecca [Budig], who played Greenlee, Alicia [Minshew, Kendall], Alexa [Havins, Babe], Justin [Bruening, Jamie] and Cameron Mathison [Ryan]. I just made sure I met everybody. I was like, ‘I love you, I grew up watching you.' I was totally in heaven. I did not meet Susan Lucci [Erica]. I can't believe I didn't do that."

Rob Bogue

Rodeo King
Rob Bogue (Mallet, GL) found it hard to control his excitement during the show. "I kept jumping up like I was at a rodeo," he laughed. Later, he praised co-stars Beth Ehlers (Harley, Best Actress nominee) and Best Supporting Actress winner Gina Tognoni (Dinah). "I feel like the luckiest guy on GUIDING LIGHT."

Happy Ending
Going home trophy-less didn't dampen Lead Actress nominee Bobbie Eakes's (Krystal, AMC) mood. "I am really, sincerely of the mind that it was an honor just to be nominated," she said. "I came here to have a good time and that's exactly what I did!" She and hubby David Steen stole away to their cabin in Northern California before returning to New York.

GH's Rick Hearst (Ric) was one of the men in pinstripes. "This [suit] was a gift from my mom," he chuckled. "So, she dressed me tonight."
