|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Hey there Marj... |
|
<Marj31> |
Hi Barbara.
Thanks for coming tonight. What do you like the most about working
at OLTL? the least? (maybe dealing with the construction down the
block!) |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
The most? The people! And getting to do what I love to do the most
in the world every day! Living my dream! |
|
<Shadoe33> |
Hey Barbar...
I've come to know you from all your work... if you had to give the
life you lived a song title what would it be and why? |
|

Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif Also...I always said I wanted to live in NYC
at least once in my life. I can check that one off now. |
|
<Shadoe33> |
That was
Barbara..*L* |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
The worst....unpacking moving boxes!!!! UGH!!! (And that dang
construction too....talk about headaches) |
|
<Marj31> |
we all want
to be able to do that |
|
<Mike20> |
lol |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
It's worst in the wardrobe designer's room....sounds like a
jackhammer all day long. Your brains literally shake in there.
Don't know how they stand it! |
|
<Marj31> |
I hat moving
too - especially international ones |
|
<Marj31> |

|
<CabooseHOST> |

explains the wardrobes. LOL Just kidding |
|
<Jill24> |

|
<Marj31> |

|
<gannonbrothrluvr13> |
hee hee |
|
<Mike20> |
lol caboose |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Wow Shadoe....great to talk to you....and yes I'm stalling. I need
to be clever on this and it's not coming. I know my favorite movie
is ""It's a Wonderful Life!"" |
|

Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif Funny, Caboose. |
|
<Shadoe33> |
Stalling
eh?*L* |
|
<Shadoe33> |
That means
I've asked you a hard question?*grin* |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Thank you Marj. Great meeting you! |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Can I get back to you on that Shadoe? |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
YES SHE IS STILL STALLING! |
|
<Shadoe33> |
*LMBO*
Sure... anytime... |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
Think on it
while Ronin asks away next |
|
*
Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif You win, you stumped me. |
|
<Shadoe33> |
But I'd
still like an answer sometime..*grin* |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Okay...my favorite song is by the Dixie Chicks...and it's my theme
song I think: Wide Open Spaces! |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Whew. That was tough. |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
I need a drink now. |
|
<Shadoe33> |
You took the
easy way out...*L* But I'll be ok with it. |
|
<radar47> |
lol |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
LOL You
don't have one handy? Christina, pass the wine |
|
<Betsy4> |
great song |
|
<Christina3> |
how about
some Tequila, Barbara |
|
<Mike20> |
lol |
|
<Ronin35> |
G'day
Barbara.. The decision must have been so disappointing not just
for the fans but for you especially.. Over the years we've seen
you deal with the ups and downs of ""the Business"".. My question
is, how do you stay so positive??? :) |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
I didn't want to embarrass myself with typos in front of all of
you. I've got the Chardonnay chilled for immediately following
this, trust me. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
LOL |
|
<radar47> |
lol |
|
<Ronin35> |
Tequila now,
Chardy later.. :) |
|

Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif Tequila's even better! You like it too? My old
character, Kate, on Pensacola always drank Tequila...wonder why? |
|
<Christina3> |
I love
Tequila |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Hey there my good friend, Ronin. You mean so much to me, and yes,
you've been there through my ups and downs, haven't you? |
|
<radar47> |
ronins an
aussie they drink anything lol |
|
<Ronin35> |
I try.. :) |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Thank you for the flowers you sent!!! Your support is what helps
me get through those times. |
|
<Ronin35> |
I'm very
trying.. :P |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
And I think I'm mostly an incredible optimist. |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Yes, I lead with my heart...and yes it gets broken sometimes, but
I also couldn't live any other way. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
Nikki it's
your turn |
|
<Nikki36> |
What was it
like having to do a love scene with Kamar on your first day at
OLTL? Also, thanks for all the encouragement you gave me to go
into acting! I have a good audition coming up sometime soon! You
are so wonderful and you are the biggest inspiration in my life
right now. |
|
<Ronin35> |
Oh BTW
Barbara, the little purple guy's name is 'Bazz' |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
It's also what I put into my acting. My heart and soul. To have it
received by people like you, and then have that support sent back
to me, means so much. It's full circle. Thank you! |
|
<Ronin35> |
Seeya.. OXO |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Hi Patty! Thanks for your part in the flowers too... |
|
<radar47> |
HI Barbara
yvw |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Hey there Nikki! First I have to say I have loved getting to know
you on my message boards! You are going to rock, girl! |
|
<Nikki36> |
Thank you |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
And I absolutely LOVE doing love scenes! (my guilty secret I
guess) |
|
<Nikki36> |
LOL |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
I know most actors don't...but I think it's a blast. I just try to
push the envelope and ""feel"" as much as possible in everything I
do. |
|
<Nikki36> |
It's hard
but I push myself because I know this is what I want to do. |
|

Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif It's not all that romantic though, as you
already know. You have to hit your marks and make sure you're in
the right camera frame, etc., etc.....but hey, how great to get to
play pretend on something you couldn't do in your ""real"" life?
And hey....Kamar is a cutie! |
|
<Christina3> |
yeah, I
noticed that you couldn't keep your hands off of TDS chest..girl,
I don't blame you. |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Love you Ronin and Patty! |
|
<Nikki36> |
He is cute!! |
|
<radar47> |
Love you
too!!! kiss lucy for me please |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
Barbar you
have to give Timothy our regards. I tried to get him to chat, but
no luck |
|
<Ronin35> |
Back At ya
BN! |

Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif Christina.....I just love doing that, really
connecting. Acting for me is all about ""business""...finding
things to do that real people do in real life....that ground you
in the scene. Let's be honest, if your head was laying on Tim's
beautiful chest....you'd be playing with and admiring him too. |
|
<Christina3> |
oh got it
girlfriend |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Lucy is now thoroughly kissed for you Patty. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
Good luck to
you Niki! Knock their socks off. |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Nikki....tell us your dream so everybody can know. |
|
<Nikki36> |
I really
want to be an actress on Daytime |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
I hope we
get to watch you soon! |
|
<Sue38> |
Hi Barbara.
Thanks for joining us. Can you talk about backstage morale with
all of the changes, i.e. new EP, writers, etc? You'll be missed. |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Nikki....I'll bet we're acting together on the screen before you
know it! |
|
<Nikki36> |
That would
be so awesome Barbara! |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Well, Sue....as you know, in any business when corporate heads
change, and the office regime changes, you expect heads to roll.
Frank Valentini is well-loved by everybody on the show, and I
trust that you are going to like the changes he is making. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
I know one
change we don't like. LOL Two actually, you and Larry leaving |
|
<Christina3> |
so true, Cab |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
It would have been nice if they would have redeemed my character
somehow, but with all the new ideas they have been bringing in,
she didn't fit. |
|
<onelifetoliveADM> |
I'll double
that one |
|
<Laura9> |
I'm shell
shocked!! |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Thank you so much. Larry is feeling pretty good about it
though....it's been hard for him being the ""middle"" man between
Todd and Blair. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
I swore the
baby would turn out to have been Keri's and this would have
passed. |
|
<Christina3> |
yeah, I
hated that for Sam (Larry) |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
I thought so too, to be honest. But c'est la vie. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
His
character hasn't had a good story in a while. |
|
<Ann25> |
Me too, Cab.
I was really rooting for Liz and RJ. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
Diane, it's
your turn |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
I know...and Larry is such a doll. Would you believe we're both
from Portland, Oregon? |
|
<Diane39> |
I just have
a comment. I'm sorry to see you go. I love your scenes with Tim
Stickney. You've handled all of this with class and I wish you the
best of luck in the future of luck |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
I know, it
was nice to see RJ happy |
|
<Diane39> |
I can't type
tonight |
|
<Sue38> |
Thanks
Barbara. Best of luck to you. You'll knock em dead! |

Barbara_Niven |
MOTIONS/playful.gif Thanks Ann....I was too, so much! I will be
totally jealous of anybody else he ever kisses. |
|
<CabooseHOST> |
Hammy it's
your turn |
|
<Barbara_Niven> |
Diane....people like you are what keep me coming back to this
business. Thank you so much for saying that honey. |
|
<hammy40> |
Hi Barbara.
I am sorry to hear that you are leaving OLTL. You are an amazing
actress and a beautiful person. I am glad I had the pleasure of
meeting you at the boxing meet and greet. My question is if you
couldn't be an actress, which profession would you have like to
try? |
