It was a night that she is never going to forget. The Young and the Restless star Michelle Stafford opened up about her Daytime Emmy win. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
The actress, who is best known for her role as Phyllis Summers on the hit CBS soap, weighed in on her Emmy experience in a new interview with Soap Opera Digest.
Michelle admitted to having a little pre-show anxiety, mostly because of her hectic schedule. That, and she couldn’t find the perfect dress to wear.
She put it this way, “I have limited time because I have so much going on with my kids and with my [skin care] company so I couldn’t do a whole shopping spree and also I wasn’t willing to pay a few thousand dollars.”
“I did ask some fashion houses if I could wear one of their dresses and nobody really bit, nobody was really interested in helping me out. The dress I found was actually inexpensive and I liked the fishtail flare at the bottom.”
“When I put it on, it looked decent and I was like, ‘Okay, there you go,’ and that’s how I found my Emmy dress.”
Michelle also said that she didn’t expect to win in the way that she did, even though she had a stellar year on Y&R.
“I hadn’t won in the last 20 years, so you kind of get used to not hearing your name. I felt I had some strong material this year but I’ve had good years before and didn’t win.”
“When I did hear my name, I was absolutely shocked. I said, ‘Oh, my God!’ and when I went up on onstage, I looked at Steve Burton [Jason, GH], I said, ‘What the f—? What the f—?’ but nobody saw that except Steve.”
It goes without saying that Y&R fans will simply have to tune in each and every day to find out what will happen next!
