Ilene Kristen ("Roxy" from ONE LIFE TO LIVE) talks about her role in the NYC play -- MY BIG GAY ITALIAN WEDDING and her appearance in FAR FROM THE BAY (Gregori Martin's prequel to THE BAY webseries).

On today's episode of Daytime Confidential, Luke and Jamey welcome back one of DC's favorite soap scene stealers, Ilene Kristen. The DC boys get to the bottom of why we haven't seen much of Kristen's hilariously-heartfelt character, Roxy Balsom of late on One Life to Live, Were Roxy and Ilene casualties of ABC's decision to "Kish off" her screen partner Brett Claywell and later Roxy's newfound son Schuyler (Scott Clifton)? Roxy's other son, Rex (John-Paul Lavoisier) was recently searching for his biological father and her daughter Natalie (Melissa Archer) is currently dealing with a "Who's The Daddy?" pregnancy predicament, yet Roxy has strangely been missing from those stories. Kristen says she's as confused by that as we are. Luke and Jamey also get the skinny on Kristen being cast in the most anticipated web sudser since Venice, Gregori J. Martin's The Bay, and find out what else the amazingly-talented singer-actress has been up to.

She has been toiling in soaps (and brilliantly!) for some three decades now, and she's survived to tell the tale! Now, the magnificent ILENE KRISTEN is coming by the Buzz to do just that: from her legendary stint as Delia Reid Coleridge on the classic series "Ryan's Hope" to her current triumph as Roxanne "Roxy" Balsom on "One Life to Live," she has seen it all and done it all, and tonight, she's TELLING all!
