They say it's an honor just to be nominated. At Soap Central, we're always honored when Daytime Emmy nominees take time to sit down and chat with us about their nominations. This year, Soap Central's Dan J Kroll did the interviewing honors and the stars found out that nothing is off-limits. From gardening to gummy bears and "borrowed" shoes to stolen Emmy nominations.
Interviews will be posted on this page as they are made available on Soap Central. This year, ABC did not respond to requests to arrange interviews with General Hospital's nominees.
