You've likely seen former soap hotties Lisa Rinna and Ty Treadway spicing up plots on shows like "Melrose Place" and "Ally McBeal."
This week you can see them — in person — on the beach in Waikiki.
Rinna and Treadway, both two-time Daytime Emmy Award-nominated co-hosts of "Soap Talk," will film episodes of the SOAPnet talk show tomorrow and Friday at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. The live tapings will be open to the public.
"I think the No. 1 way that ('Soap Talk') ... differs from other talk shows is its unpredictability," Treadway said from Santa Monica, Calif. "I think of it more as a variety show."
"Soap Talk" guests are primarily soap stars, but the show also features segments on cooking, beauty, fashion, health and music.
"It's really a lifestyle show, and we just have a lot of fun," Rinna said from Los Angeles.
Guests scheduled for the Hilton tapings include Nancy Lee Grahn and Ingo Rademacher of "General Hospital," Michael Easton of "One Life to Live," and Vincent Irizzarry and Terri Ivens of "All My Children." Local celebs Jasmine Trias and Keali'i Reichel are scheduled to perform.
The Hawai'i tapings will be the first four episodes of the show's fourth season, which will begin airing sometime in October.
While the trip may be work-related, Rinna and Treadway both hope to spend some down time here. Rinna, a frequent visitor to the Islands, is married to actor Harry Hamlin.
"I want to hike up Diamond Head and watch a sunset," said Treadway, who played doctors Colin and Troy MacIver on "One Life to Live." "I'm such a sunset freak."
