The Young and the Twitterers: Michael Muhney's tweet bromance with his co-star
To bring you the best news for Daytime Drive By, I started following Michael Muhney, who plays our fauxmosexual Adam on The Young and the Restless. Through him, I discovered that Y&R is a very Twitter-savvy cast and with Y&R on summer break, the actors are all off just being themselves. In addition to Michael, I picked up Daniel Goddard, who plays Cane. Then I snagged Christian LeBlanc, who plays Michael Baldwin, then Michelle Stafford who plays Phyllis. This has proved to be unintentionally hilarious. Over the weekend, you had Christian in Las Vegas, Twittering from the winner of the Y&R dream wedding contest as well as from various bars and casinos around the Strip. But the real motherlode is the total bromance between Michael and Daniel. What follows are some of their bromantic exchanges. Remember to read each from the bottom up. Seems like Daniel is giving Michael (vacationing in Hawaii) a bit of ribbing for his heteroflexible character:
. This piece of slashfic art was tweeted to Michael. He loved it so much he shared it with the world - and more specifically, with his costar, Daniel, since he was starring in the poster, too.
. So what did Daniel think about being included in the hoyay instead of just dishing it out?
. But despite being able to take a joke, Daniel seems to be much more interested in dishing the crap than anything. When Michael says goodbye to the beauty of Maui, Daniel knows why he's really rushing back to Los Angeles.
Like any couple, they let each other know embarrassing little things, like if one has broccoli stuck in their teeth, or to be supportive when one has a technology issue. See Daniel support Michael when he can't make his iPhone stop including his precise geographic location (score!) when he tweets:
Turns out Daniel likes to race cars. Turns out he's a bit confused about how two guys might have sex though, and what accessories may be involved:
But the reality is that their love across Twitter is a fundamental truth that Michael can't escape, and he's man enough to acknowledge it:
If you're wondering how the 4,000 or so followers these guys have react to all this banter, they seem to love it, and egg the boys on. The followers seem to be mostly straight women, so it just goes as further evidence that women love a hot male couple, even if they're only a Twitter couple. Oh, and one last detail. Daniel seems intent on harassing Michael about his role, as Adam. Actors live in exceptionally fragile glass houses when it comes to roles they ought to be blushing about. A little investigating of Daniel Goddard using the miracle that is IMDb, I discovered that other than Cane Ashby, Daniel's biggest role was in the syndicated Tarzan knockoff, Beastmaster. What's so embarrassing about that? He spent four years talking to a pair of ferrets, dressed like this:

I've Been Following Them, Too. . .
. . . and even if it is friendly "getcha" banter between straight guys, I'm a-lovin' it!
The BeastMaster
I remember reading about the Bestmaster when it first was on that there was a wardrobe problem.
It seemed that Daniel's costume wasn't skimpy enough for him and there was a problem of him liking to show off more than was needed.
That's when I started to watch...
Beastmaster
Christian LeBlanc?
Anyone know if he is gay or not? He's in his 50's, single has an AMAZING body as evidenced a this photo which recently ran in a Soap magazine that was one of the hottest I have ev
er seen.....
1000 apologies
I remember when there were
I remember when there were those rumors about him dating his Y&R co-star Greg Rikaart. I dunno how much of it is true though.
Update
Just an editorial update - we tweeted the article to Michael Muhney, and I'm guessing he liked it, because he retweeted, twice, with exclamation points. I love that he's got a sense of humor about it.
As for Christian, I have no reason to think he's anything but a bachelor with an incredible body (GOOL had him as Soap Stud of the Week once with some shirtless photos), but he was hysterical this weekend in Vegas for the Y&R dream wedding. His twitter stream was full of pics of the wedding party, Tracey (plays Lauren Fenmore), and him gambling, getting mani-pedis, etc.
O....M.....G!!!!!
I have been IN LOVE with the character of Cane Ashby and now I think I'm in love with the actor. Those two are just painfully cute together!
Can I change my screen name to Cane? ;-)
i loved watching
i loved watching beastmaster for obvious reasons (just to see an incredibly hot and sexy guy walk around in a loincloth). That said, i really dont like cane, he annoys the crap out of me with his "dogoodi-ness". My aunt loves him to the end of the earth though. As for adam, i HATE HIS GUTS. If i were to be magically teleported into the world of soaps with a gun in my hand, Adam would be my first target......
Oh, this post was about a bromance , right....... I got a belly full of laughs out of these tweets. the actors seem really cool (dispite my dislike of their caracters).
