Days of Our Lives Star Victoria Grace Admits The Soap Opera Has Changed Her Life As An Asian Actress

Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, the talented actress said she certainly did have a lot to celebrate when she found out that she got her role on the soap. She recalled, “My sister, Cassie, was in the room with me when my agent first called to tell me that I booked it. She could overhear the whole conversation, so she was screaming and cheering in the background. We were both so excited. Immediately after, we went out for drinks to celebrate.”

Victoria also opened up about the Days of Our Lives audition process. She said, “It was unique, because I sent in one self-tape for the character. I didn’t hear anything back for a couple of months. Then I got a call that I booked it. I never met the casting director, the writers, the producers, the directors … anybody. I never had a callback or a chemistry read.”

Now, as far as how the show has changed her life, Victoria explained, “Like I said, this is my first series regular role, which is incredibly exciting. For me, that has always been the goal. So it feels like I’ve achieved a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Also, as an Asian woman being on TV, I read The Hollywood Diversity Report for last year, and out of all of the lead women on TV less than four percent were Asian. That really hit close to home, knowing that I can contribute to that and take a step forward to greater representation.”
