Adrienne Frantz first day back on the set of The Bold and the Beautiful was this past Tuesday. Her character, Amber Moore, will first reappear on the series on July 1st. On-Air On-Soaps spoke to Adrienne today, to talk about “crossing over” back to her original home at B&B, and to fill us in on what went on behind-the-scenes. Here are some excerpts:
Frantz on her return to B&B and that it was a well-planned out career move: “Brad Bell (exec prod, and head writer, B&B) and I have actually been talking about this for a year. And it was all in talks, and I knew everything that was happening. I knew I was going over to B&B right away, but I could not say anything to anyone. It was hush-hush. And, it was hard not to tell anybody, because I wanted to share my excitement with everyone. I read somewhere the other day, that I had announced I was coming to B&B months ago on my Twitter account, but I don’t have a Twitter account. So, I was like, “That is funny? I don’t twitter!”
Frantz clarifying it was her decision to head back to B&B: “I wanted to go back to B&B. And there were no hard feelings on Y&R, or anywhere. They didn’t have much for my character at Y&R, and Brad has a thing for Amber, and he knows exactly what he is doing with her, and how to write for her. He knows the crazy Amber that she is, because he created her. Amber needs to be spiced up a little, and that is what Brad intends on doing. ”
Frantz that there is one more episode with Amber coming, and Little D! “There will be another episode coming up on Y&R soon that will explain the transitional period of coming over to B&B. So it explains it all. You will see that. Regarding Little D - I can’t give that away quite yet as to what happens there. You will just have to watch!”
Frantz on her big Y&R break-up scenes with Daniel: “I liked the scenes. I thought it was great. Everyone felt like super emotional. Michael Graziadei (Daniel) is one of my really good friends. You know it’s funny. I went to work the other day and saw all the Y&R people and they said, “No one had to say goodbye to you because you are right here.” My dressing room is next to Jess Walton. (Jill, Y&R)
Frantz on if she is at all concerned that once on the half hour soap, that even though others have come on like gangbusters, it usually reverts back (most of the time) to the drama with the four main characters. “I am not concerned. She is Amber and she will find her niche. It may take awhile to meld into the storylines, but right off the bat from the first day you can see where she is going with it all. I can say this much – Whip offers her a job at Jackie M. She will be back in the fashion world. And, this will be about Amber coming here and trying to start her life all over again. And she is really excited about doing that, and she is her happy self again. Yes, she is going to miss Daniel, but she is interested in starting her life again.”
Frantz on starting her first tape day back at B&B on the same day the soap was being recognized by Guinness Book of World Records for Most Popular TV Soap. “My first day, and the show gets into the Guinness Book of World Records. It’s almost as important (Laughs).”
