New E! Series to Spotlight Soap Stars

LOS ANGELES: Dirty Soap is a new docu-series headed to E! that looks at the real lives of some of today’s biggest soap-opera stars.

Kelly Monaco (General Hospital), Nadia Bjorlin (Days Of Our Lives), Kirsten Storms (General Hospital), Farah Fath (One Life To Live), JP Lavoisier (One Life To Live) and Galen Gering (Days Of Our Lives) are on board. The eight-episode series is executive produced by Amber Mazzola’s Machete Productions and Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ Milojo Productions. Dirty Soap premieres on E! September 25 at 10 p.m.

“The soap industry is at a defining moment and the time is ripe for a series that goes inside this iconic world and explores the unique bond that these actors share,” said Lisa Berger, the president of entertainment programming at E! “No one knows the inner-workings of the soap community better than Kelly and Mark, and it is exciting for us to work with them, in addition to some of the reigning kings and queens of soap featured in the series.”

“We’re very excited to be behind this show for E!, and having met on the soaps, we know all too well how much work and dedication it takes,” added Ripa and Consuelos, both of whom are veteran soap stars.
