Real Life Soapdish: Susan Lucci Assists Abandoned Children

Tracie — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 18:20:00 EDT

Susan Lucci visited Kenya last week for the Frances Jones Abandoned Babies organization, where she cuddled with kids, hung out with wildlife, and helped serve food — while wearing heels. It reminded me of the film Soapdish. "It's so warming!"

Am I right?

And when she held this little boy...

…it reminded of me of the time Celeste Talbert went to the mall in Paramus for an ego boost.

How did she traipse around in those giant wedges? (Not like I'm one to talk about something like that.)

Here's where you can go to learn more and donate time/money to the cause.

Real Housewife Danielle Staub's All My Children Scene

When Danielle Staub showed her modeling pictures to her kids in the season finale of RHONJ, she said she was on All My Children. Turns out she was a day player in 2001: One scene, with two lines.

Fergie's husband Josh Duhamel was there, though.

I looked up at my TV at 1:58pm today and saw this. When the old lady at the end came on, I laughed to myself and thought, I wonder if that's Agnes Nixon, 80-year-old prolific soap opera creator. After some digging around I found out it was. She's still alive! And she came on the show, I guess to play the narrator, or God or something, because today was All My Children's 10,000th episode.

Last night, Dodai and I discussed how, during the day, we'll have the TV on while we're working and suddenly catch some crazy dramatic moment on an early-afternoon soap opera. Taken out of context (we don't follow the stories), they are off-the-charts weird. I looked up at my TV today at 1:12pm. This is what I saw.
