I saw it as I was watching "Community". I thought that girl is hungry for publicity. And then I thought that they need to rehire Julie Pinson back and ship this heffa outta here!!

On a side note, watching today's episode now and Will and Marlena's scenes were as Deidre Hall says "delicious"! It is the sole best piece of the puzzle that these head writers have brought to Days. I do hope the new HWs bring just as much to the table with that story and makes the others pop!!!

And nuCeleste while accetable, lacks the camp and fun and delivery that Tanya Boyd had. Just to hear Tanya Boyd's "dahling" would be perfect to this story, especially since it leads up to Renee Jones' last story line on Days.

There's a hint of irony in the fact that Harry is ON Shameless, and his wife IS!

this is so sad.

don't watch days so I can't comment on Julie (whom I liked a lot on Port charles) vs Lisa.
but the comments here are pretty catty.
This is a good cause (both the charity she's involved with and a product that makes someone feel comfortable and sexy if they have incontinence problems).

I say hats off to rinna and hamlin for using their celeb to promote both causes--nothing sad about anything that makes someone with a long term physical challenge, or recovering from surgery, or dealing with side effects of cancer treatments, feel good about their bodies

criticize someone's acting all you want but don't criticize something like this until you have been in one of those positions

There is only one Billie, and that is Lisa Rinna.

Thank you thank you westvirginiafan and hey mon -- NOT IN MILLION YEARS is Julie Pinson Billie Reed -- NO, NO, just NO. This is a great cause, and Lisa Rinna is just fabulous. I don't follow her career much outside of Salem, but hopefully the new writers give her a story worth of heroine Billie Reed. I love her being an ISA agent, cuz out of the gate i was hoping they wouldn't put her in a cosmetics story, which may be irrelevant if new HW's write off Madison and Ian, we'll see!

Uh...

I wouldn't say it's a cause. It's an ad. She was well-paid. And I have to admit--my friends and I burst out laughing when we saw her and we all said the same thing: "Is there anything this girl won't do for a buck/self-promotion." I say more power to her. While not a huge fan of Billie she's been okay. If anything her surgery is distracting. I can't focus on what she's saying. The character isn't really all that important to me so I just blast by her scenes.

Lisa Rinna seems so desperate. Desperate to TRY to remain relevant. It's sad.

@everyone: Shouldn't she be doing ads for Restylane? That would be more appropriate.

Julie Pinson is a much better actress, but Lisa Rinna is a DOOL icon. Julie would definitely do a better job, but Lisa has more mainstream appeal, and I have only heard good things about her first tenure on the show.

And David46208--- I agree.......lol. Or Juvederm!!!

I was watching Days for years BEFORE Lisa Rinna even made her debut as Billie Reed in '92 and I'd say that while she was good as a young, vulnerable Billie, that is not who Billie is now. Characters evolve. Lisa, except for that brief return in '02, was not there for Billie's evolution.

That said, I do think she is getting better.
