Michelle Stafford takes great pride in her work on The Young and the Restless. While she gets compliments from fans and her colleagues, sometimes it takes a friend to realize how special you are. That was the case when the actress invited a pal along for a day on set.

Key Takeaways

  • Michelle Stafford brought a friend to a day of filming on Y&R.
  • Stafford’s pal enjoyed the visit and met many of the cast.
  • The visit made Stafford realize how special her work is.

Michelle Stafford’s Joyful Day

The Y&R cast and crew often have family and friends visiting the set to see the behind-the-scenes action. Recently, Stafford (Phyllis) invited her friend Andy to the studio to see her in action. Stafford detailed the visit on her Instagram page, and from the looks of it, it was a special day for everyone.

Stafford and Andy smiled for a photo in the Chancellor mansion with Michael Damian (Danny), Lauralee Bell (Christine), and Tracey Bregman (Lauren). Later, Andy got to meet and pose for a photo with Eric Braeden (Victor). Andy also got to have a chat with Braeden on the Newman ranch set.

Seeing her friend have fun and meet her castmates was an incredible experience for Stafford. “Bring your friend to work day. ❤️It’s beautiful to see the job you do through somebody else’s eyes,” she captioned the post.

It also helped remind Stafford why she became an actress and how special her work is. “It’s quite rehabilitating. Rehabilitates the reasons why.”

Stafford’s co-stars were also in agreement and loved having Andy visit the set. “A round of applause for friends! So much fun👏👏👏,” Bell wrote.

“So much fun. Please bring your friends everyday for the clapping👏👏👏,” Michael Graziadei (Daniel) replied.

Witnessing Phyllis The Troublemaker

Andy’s visit is one she won’t forget. She got to see Stafford in action and the kind of drama her character, Phyllis, often gets into.

Phyllis currently has her hands full with her friend/beau, Matt (Roger Howarth). Their relationship is raising a lot of eyebrows, given Matt’s unsavory history.

Despite the warnings from Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon (Sharon Case), Phyllis is continuing her relationship with Matt. But Phyllis might be in for a world of trouble when and if a reformed Matt reverts to his old ways.

Aside from Matt, Phyllis is trying to get back into the corporate world after giving up Newman Enterprises. Phyllis enjoyed being Genoa City’s top dog for the brief time she took over Newman. Now that she’s had a taste of success, she wants to recapture it, but might face opposition from Victor and other GC bigwigs.
