First-time Jitters
By Unknown - ? 1999

Soap love scenes always look so real. That's good for us, but not always too hot for the performers, according to Krissy Carlson (Amy). "It was kind of weird," she shares about a recent scene in which Sean (Randy Spelling) and Amy made love. "Neither of us had ever done a love scene before. It was like, 'What do you do? How far do you go?' We wanted to make it real, but we didn't want to make it too real!" But acting out the scene with pal Randy - instead of someone else - made it easier for Carlson. "I felt more comfortable because I know him," she relates. "You pretty much have nothing underneath. I would have been uncomfortable being next to somebody I didn't know. The crew and no one else can see - but the actor who is lying next to you can."
