Daytime Emmy Winner Coming Through
Yamada has wowed fans with her transition from good girl to villain on B&B. The actress gave a devilish performance as Luna held Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) captive and bragged about her crimes. Yamada was definitely the breakout star last year and her hard work was rewarded with a Daytime Emmy win.
It was an emotional night for the actress, who is proud of her accomplishment. On Instagram, the star posted a slideshow of photos and videos celebrating her Emmy win. In several photos, Yamada is happily posing with her statue and in one video she takes it with her grocery shopping.
Yamada is still glammed up from the awards show when she stops by a local supermarket. The Emmy is on full display in a cart as the actress looks at a shelf of candy and gum. “TALK 2 ME NICE 🗣️🗣️🏆🏆. That’s Emmy award winning actress Lisa Yamada to you,” the star captioned the videos and photos.
Luna’s Reign of Terror Continues
Whether fans love her or hate her, there’s no denying that Luna keeps things exciting on B&B. Everyone thought that Luna’s reign of terror ended when she died, but thanks to Li (Naomi Matsuda) she has a second chance at life.
Unfortunately, Li’s attempts to redeem Luna failed. The young villainess snuck out of hiding and took advantage of an inebriated Will (Crew Morrow). Now everyone knows Luna is alive and pregnant with Will’s child.
Luna’s hopes of using the baby to become a family with Will failed when she was sent back to prison. Things aren’t looking good for Luna as she loses her freedom and possibly custody of her baby. But knowing Luna, she has a trick up her sleeve and might pull a fast one over Will and his parents. With a big storyline and juicy material to work with, Yamada might be up for another Daytime Emmy win next year.
