B&B’s Lisa Yamada and Christian Weissmann to Chat Live on the Michael Fairman Channel

As part of Daytime Emmy week, two of this year’s nominees in the inaugural Outstanding Emerging Talent in a Daytime Drama Series category, The Bold and the Beautiful’s Lisa Yamada (Luna Nozawa) and Christian Weissmann (Remy Pryce), will chat live on the Michael Fairman Channel on Wednesday, October 15th at a special time, 2:30pm ET/11:30am PT.

Not only are Lisa and Christian nominated together in the same category, and appeared together in many scenes on B&B, but they are good friends in real-life and have celebrated being nominees together over the last few months.

In addition, Lisa and Christian are featured in the red-hot storyline on B&B right now, where Luna is apparently pregnant with Will Spencer’s (Crew Morrow) child after she took advantage of him in the most underhanded of ways, while Remy was in shock to learn that his former friend, Luna was alive after believing she had been killed by Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton).

When a desperate Luna needed a place to hide, she hightailed it to Remy’s, only to find he is gay and living with his boyfriend, Deke (Harrison Cone), who turns out to be Deacon Sharpe’s (Sean Kanan) son. Previously, Remy was obsessed with Electra (Laneya Grace) when he first came to town and he too got up in Will Spencer’s business. However, it will be interesting to see how this week’s episodes of B&B play out and if it will draw Remy and Luna back into each others orbit. Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, Lisa and Christian delivered high intensity scenes and performances during the 2024 calendar year which earned them nominations for the 52nd annual Daytime Emmy Awards.  Lisa and Christian will compete with Olivia d’Abo (Fifi Garrett, The Bay)AnnaLynne McCord (Cat Greene, Days of Our Lives) and Ashley Puzemis (Holly Jonas, Days of our Lives) in the Outstanding Emerging Talent in a Daytime Drama Series category.

The new award honors an actor or actress who has delivered an outstanding performance as an “emerging talent” while working within the daytime drama field. To be considered for this category, performers must meet all of the following criteria: Be on their first Daytime contract with no previous Daytime Emmy acting nominations, have been part of their Daytime Drama for two years or less at the time of consideration, appear in a speaking role with at least one multi-episode story arc. This new category has no age restriction, shifting the focus away from a performer’s age and instead highlighting their status as a newcomer to daytime television.
