Ms. Shelley’s team did in fact pull out an amazing win tonight at Super Bowl XLIV.  So congrats indeed to the New Orleans Saints for a well deserved win and I know the city/state is celebrating right now!

Why its Stephanie’s Aunt Adrienne of course!  That’s right, Judi Evans (ex-Bonnie, DAYS) will reprise her role as Adrienne Johnson Kiriakis.  We last saw her in town somewhere around 2008 when upon leaving she left the Cheating Hart bar to Steph’s then beau, Max Brady.

It really was only a matter of time that she be asked to come back since they’ve had her television husband Justin Kiriakis (Wally Kurth) back on-screen.  So I am really happy for more family members from the Johnson clan.  if only we could get her mom and dad back on then that’d be icing on the cake.

On the front page of Soap Opera Digest/Weekly online they have the low-down on just who Shelley will be rooting for!

She’s a Hometown girl indeed.

Note: To save room and not compromise the layout I had to compress the image down.  If you’re having trouble viewing it then click here Shelley comes in at No. 3.

Shelley was in Los Angeles Friday night in support of her great friend and former Miss California USA 2009 (as well as Miss Teen USA 2003; she crowned Shelley in 2004) Ms. Tami Farrell as she made a milkshake for, Millions Of Milkshakes.  It looks really good and I want to try it – they should bring her creation to Coldstone Creamery that’s the only thing we have close to MoM.

See Shelley gives it the Thumbs Up approval. Also, you can watch a video of Tami, Shelley and a couple of other celebs who came out to support her as well. Here’s the video, Shelley comes in close to the end.

She named it Tami’s Earthquake Shake with the proceeds going towards helping Haiti. How wonderful is that? So if you’re in the Los Angeles area stop by Millions of Milkshakes and try Ms. Tami’s delicious creation.

Soap Opera Digest has revealed on their twitter page @SoapDigest that Darin Brooks (ex-Max, DAYS ) is coming back for a few episodes!  I’m guessing it’ll have something to do with Melanie and this now preposterous story that basically dumps everything Stephanie/Max did last summer but whatever.

So anyway let’s rejoice YAY! I seriously want to see Max interact with Stephanie because I absolutely love them together on-screen.  Darin & Shelley just had that instant magic and I was watching some old clips from last year and I’m also capping from two years ago so a lot of things are in store.

P.S. Shelley’s feature in SOD is 3-pages!

I am cracking up at this so much. I just dont get it at all!

WOOOOOOO Shelley has a Feauture Interview in the upcoming Soap Opera Digest which should be on news stands today (if not then by sure tomorrow!) so make sure you go on out and support her!

I love when the magazines do stuff like this – it just makes my day. This is her second solo interview since joinging the show. She also did a joint interview with co-star Jay Kenneth Johnson (Philip) back in mid 2009. So keep a watch out for that post!

Admin. Note: Sorry I wanted to post this after I had uploaded the screencaps but that’s going to be awhile so let’s just get it out the way and keep you all updated & BIG Thanks to our amazing co-admin Colleen for the head’s up! Soap Opera Weekly online talked with Shelley about her fitness routine and how she keeps her body in tip-top shape. You can find out too by reading below.

Shaping Up With DAYS’s Shelley Hennig
— By Janet Di Lauro

Long, lean Shelley Hennig (Stephanie, DAYS) has found a brand-new way to keep her body in tip-top shape, and it all revolves around a ballet bar. The actress fills us in on the exercise routine that she not only loves, but also credits with changing her life.

Soap Opera Weekly: You sound very excited about this new routine of yours. What can you tell us about it?
Shelley Hennig: I work out at a place called Cardio Barre with Molly Burnett (Melanie). I try to go four or five times a week. There’s a ballet bar, and they play music. What you’re doing is fast ballet movements. So it’s a lot of cardio work and ballet form, which I love.

Weekly: Did you introduce Molly to this, or did she turn you on to it?
Hennig: I heard about it from numerous people. Molly actually started going before me. I didn’t have the guts to try this intense workout. When I finally decided to give it a try, it changed my life. It really has. I actually look forward to it, and I hate working out.

Weekly: You hate working out?!
Hennig: I do [laughs]! I love to eat. I’m from New Orleans. I eat like nobody’s business. So to find a workout that I actually look forward to is a lifesaver.

Weekly: What’s the class like?
Hennig: It’s an hour long, and there are 30 people in the room. We all have our own space working at the ballet bar. You get to stretch at the end. If I ever decided to start dancing professionally again, I could do it in a heartbeat, thanks to this class. I have my strength back now, as well as my flexibility.

Weekly: Where have you noticed the biggest change in your body?
Hennig: Well, women tend to put weight on in their hips, and that’s usually hard to [get rid of]. I have really toned up that area a lot since I started this.

Weekly: Are you and Molly compatible workout partners?
Hennig: We totally are. We both enjoy the class a lot. Unfortunately, we haven’t seen each other at Cardio Barre in a while, because our schedules have been completely different. But when I see her there, I get excited. It’s always fun to work out with someone.

Sultry Shelley Online has a brand new layout after 2 years! I was getting tired of the last one and when I was notified by email that my girl was taking requests I immediately sent one in from Shelley’s beautiful new promotional images.

I hope you all enjoy our beautiful, stellar, amazing etc. etc. new layout designed by my amazing friend Ms. Carol of Sin 21 Designs. She’s simply the best and if you love her work then make sure you check out her design site with her equally amazing sister Ms. Ang Sin 21 Designs! Unfortunately they’re not acepting orders at this time because they’re very busy but if you look at the sidebar on the left and you’d like to be notified when they are accepting again then please do so. It’s how I always find out! So makesure you head on over there!

How gorgeous does she look?! Shelley has a roundtable interview with various media outlets (Shine On Media took this amazing footage) at the Day Of Our Lives set in preparation for the Day Of Days Event! She speaks very candidly about how she misses her on-screen parents Mary Beth Evans (ex-Kayla) and Stephen Nichols (ex-Steve “Patch”). I love what she had to say about Wes Ramsey (ex-Owen) and they seriously had some light the bed on fire chemistry! As much as I love they’re testing the waters of Stephanie & Nathan – we all know how that’s going to end because his heart just really isn’t in it from my standpoint so bring someone on that is hot and only has eyes for our girl Steph. That’s all I want.

Also, I don’t know if you’ve heard about this or not but Mr. Stephen Nichols has managed to book himself a very high profile gig on the number one rated soap opera for the past 20+ years, The Young & The Restless! He’s the recast for Tucker McCall ( he takes over for William Russ; but I read he was who they originally had wanted for the role).
