Celebrity Page TV
Soap Opera Digest's editorial director Stephanie Sloane is back with our Sonia Isabelle to talk about Eric Braeden's interview & the first impressions that new stars had when meeting their on screen partners!
Eric Braeden's Revealing Interview
Eric Braeden turned 80 last month, but the word "retirement" is not even contemplated in his vocabulary. Sloane shares:
"He says it surprises him how much that is a relief to fans, but it also makes him happy that it is. Eric says he's grateful to have been paired with Melody Thomas Scott for so many years."
Essentially, Braeden is not going anywhere.
First Impressions From New Stars
Bold and Beautiful's Delon de Metz told Sloane that John McCook was very sweet and inviting. Sloane says:
"John was the first one to welcome Delon into the family and Delon says he really wanted to impress him."
And Days Of Our Lives's Lindsay Arnold said she was nervous to meet her on screen mom Alison Sweeney:
"But Ally welcomed her with a bug hug and a smile."
Courtney Hope confessed that when she came to Young And The Restless...
"She discovered a sweet and down to earth guy, her co-star Michael Mealor. Courtney says he's so honest and doesn't put on any errors and she really appreciates that."

If you saw our clip with Us Weekly's Christina Garibaldi, you know that Jennifer Lopez and her ex-fiancé Ben Affleck have been making dating rumors fly. Well, Celebrity Page readers, the rumors are true, and the two are officially back together.
Just last week, the former lovebirds went on an adventure together to Montana's Yellowstone Club on May 2nd. Ben was driving while J Lo was in the passenger seat as they drove to the airport together. Once they arrived on the tarmac, they were spotted holding hands!
Bennifer Holds Hands
This reunion comes just weeks after JLo and Alex Rodriguez officially called off their engagement after some turbulence that caused them to part ways. This Bennifer reunion comes as quite a shock to A-Rod's system, according to a source from E!.
"He truly thought they would be able to make it work and reconnect. He has been reaching out to JLo trying to meet with her and she has been very short with him."
While this may have come as a surprise to A-Rod, it seems as though this pair has had a reunion in the works for longer than we might have originally thought.
Matt Damon Approves
While A-Rod may disapprove of the re-budding romance, Affleck's best friend has other opinions. "It's a fascinating story. I hope it's true," Matt Damon said in an interview with Today on Tuesday. "I love them both. I hope it's true. That would be awesome."
A source close to JLo revealed that the two have been in touch on and off for a few years now, their closeness increasing over the last few months or so.
Bennifer started dating back in 2002, got engaged in the same year, called it off in 2004, and are now back on!
We wish the old new couple the best.

NBC has announced that they will be ending their relationship between themselves and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association after the Los Angeles times revealed some troubling diversity and ethics issues within the nonprofit organization. The HFPA is responsible for holding the Golden Globes.
The Controversy
While the voting members of the HFPA are confidential, a report from the LA Times revealed a startling lack of diversity amongst the voting members, as well as rumors of financial benefits given to some members. Some members of the HFPA allegedly stayed in a hotel paid for by Emily in Paris.
While this is all skepticism and nothing is confirmed, companies such as WarnerMedia, Netflix, and now NBC, have withdrawn from the Golden Globes until the matter is thoroughly vetted and resolved.
A statement from NBC read, "We continue to believe that the HFPA is committed to meaningful reform. However, change of this magnitude takes time and work, and we feel strongly that the HFPA needs time to do it right. As such, NBC will not air the 2022 Golden Globes".
Rumors of ethical issues surrounding the award show have been circulating for years, with five time host Ricky Gervais joking about it on several occasions. What these actions will do is yet to be seen, but it looks like cleanup time for the Hollywood Foreign Press.
