It's not the point that her hair and wardrobe were outdated, They were horrible,. That red lipstick on Genie and that hairstyle was from the 70's or 80's all poofed up like that. Genie is so pretty and I'm not sure that was a great idea to dress Genie in that flowing scarf and big red velvet dress. I feel that the makeup department sometimes sabotaged Genie's look. You never see her dressed or made up like that on her twitter or in her personal appearances.

: Yes, I meant Jamey Giddens. I listened to
: his podcast about Genie. I didn’t realize
: that
: he has hated Frank for awhile.
:
: BTW, I rewatched Laura and Kevin’s
: engagement
: dinner again. Found it on my DVR. Anyway,
: this time I heard Laura say something
: something
: to Lulu about thinking that she was going to
: a
: party where they were dressing up in old
: Hollywood attire. So that’s why her hair and
: dress were outdated.

: I think you were referring to Jamey Giddens
: from Daytime Confidential unless James
: Giddey is a different person. He hates
: FV.It's very rare indeed for an EP to up and
: fire an icon knowing full well of the
: consequences unless he had permission to go
: ahead from the higher ups. FV seems to be
: everyone's darling on the set there at GH so
: something is amiss somewhere. A decision
: like this had to be on the burner somewhere
: and they just decided to cut to it and
: suffer the backlash..otherwise, there would
: be none of this dropping Genie like a rock
: with writers left in the lurch scrambling to
: rewrite a story which seemingly was written
: for Genie. I think someone higher up than
: Frank didn't see Genie as necessary and was
: willing to cut to the quick. They know she
: has a fanbase but like Jane Elliott said in
: her interview with Frank, the Veteran's
: audience is not who they care about. They
: are willing to lose Veteran viewers because
: they think we can't change our views on
: advertising products. It's all about the
: Dollars. Maybe Genie being associated with
: Nutrisystem weight loss isn't the audience
: they want to have. There is a reason
: somewhere behind this cutting Genie off
: this suddenly. It may be sudden for us, but
: I think they saw it as cutting excess
: baggage and Boom, Genie is out. I think it
: was on someones agenda long before this
: sudden action.

: I think there is definitely still time.
: Genie’s
: agent released a statement verifying that
: she wants to be on contract and she was
: totally blindsided by this decision. Not
: sure
: of his exact words, but the link is on the
: board in a post. I think it was in
: Entertainment Weekly.
:
: James Giddey indicated that Frank does
: stuff like this on a whim without a good
: reason.
:
: There’s certainly no indication that Genie
: or any veteran holds up production. Seems
: like it would be just the opposite.
:
:
: Would Genie even want to do it? I guess
: that depends on what the plans were for
: Laura, the commitment, her personal
: situation at that time. It also would
: depend on why they let her go in the first
: place. Was it a budget problem or something
: else? Lots of people move on when contract
: talks stall, but it isn't done with the kind
: of brutality and surprise that Genie just
: endured.
:
: It got me to thinking. Why would Genie have
: so much difficulty with FV? Why would she
: have had problems with JFP? Aside from
: contract negotiations. an EP has the prime
: responsibility to keep production moving.
: Anyone who throws a snag into the wheels is
: a problem. They operate at warp speed over
: there. There is no rehearsal to speak of.
: You get a call to come to the set, you zoom
: up there, shoot your scene, and you're done.
: Someone who requires more attention (hair,
: make-up, wardrobe, etc) could be perceived
: as a problem. It could be something as
: simple as that. So, maybe a new EP who
: would be more tolerant would be able to
: handle that if it were a problem. I don't
: know anything about Genie's situation. It
: just seems so strange that an EP would fire
: a star without any justification, throw his
: writers into a tizzy, and alienate a huge
: fanbase.
