An Exclusive Interview with General Hospital Alum America Olivo.
Soaps.com’s Lori Wilson recently had a chance to catch up with former General Hospital star America Olivo.
They talked about her time in the soap world, posing for Playboy and her recent projects.
Here’s a little glimpse of what America had to say:
“I had a blast on General Hospital. I worked right before and right after Christmas break, however, and I didn’t have the chance to meet a lot of the GH family. I grew up with my bro-in-law, Jason Brooks (ex-Peter), being on Days of Our Lives, so I’d always heard such wonderful things about the soap experience. I’d never been on a soap and was delighted to have had the experience, even if short lived. Though GH decided to take Marianna in another direction, I was so pleased to have lived her, if only for a few episodes. Everything happens for a reason, and if I had still been on GH, I wouldn’t have been able to do “Bitch Slap” with co-stars Minae Noji (Kelly) and Ron Melendez (ex-Andy), also from GH, and I wouldn’t have been in “Friday the 13th,” nor promoting “Bitch Slap” on the cover of Playboy. A perfect example of when a door closes a window opens! Minae, Ron, and I missed on the set of GH, but are now fabulous “Bitch Slap” friends. So, it’s all in the family!”
