"One Life To Live" Star Featured In National Microsoft Ad Q: Is the actress who plays Bree on "One Life to Live" on a Microsoft commercial? It sure looks like her. — H.T. A: Actually, it's the actress who plays Jessica who is on a Microsoft Windows commercial, but her name in real life is Bree Williamson. Incidentally, she'll be reprising her role of Brandeis the call girl on the CW prime-time soap "Gossip Girl" later this season. Q: I'm confused about Daniel and Victor on "Days of Our Lives." Are they related somehow? Also, was the character of Daniel on "Days" years ago, before he was played by Shawn Christian most recently? A: Victor (John Aniston) is Daniel's (Shawn Christian) godfather. He brought Daniel to Salem to help cure his son, Bo (Peter Reckell), while he was in the hospital with organ failure. The role was originated by Christian in 2008 and was supposed to be short term, but he agreed to stay on and still continues as the handsome doctor in 2010. Q: Can you tell me what song played at the end of the Jan. 19 episode of "General Hospital"? — T.B. A: "Stranger in My Skin," by Christine Dente. You can find it on iTunes.com, as well as view the emotional scene it played under (Lucky catches his wife, Elizabeth, in bed with his brother, Nikolas) by doing a search for it on Youtube.com. Q: Are the actors who play Brady and Arianna the same ones who played Ethan and Theresa on "Passions"? They look like them but slightly different. — R.R. A: Yes, Eric Martsolf first came over to "Days" after "Passions" was canceled to play Brady. Arianna was first played by actress Felisha Terrell, but the producers quickly decided to recast the role with Lindsay Hartley, reuniting her with her former "Passions" love interest, Martsolf. Galen Gering, who played Hartley's brother Luis on "Passions," plays her brother, Rafe, on "Days." Q: On "One Life to Live," are Mitch and Natalie still legally married? They were married right before he supposedly died the last time he was on the show, so wouldn't they still technically be wed? — A.W. A: Actually, the last person Mitch (Roscoe Born) was married to before he was killed off the last time on the show was Dorian (Robin Strasser). His marriage to Natalie (Melissa Archer) was annulled. He then married Dorian, but their marriage was never consummated. However, now that he is back from the dead, they are technically still married. Daytime Dial is online and interactive.
