As the casting process for a second season of the Pop TV reality series Queens of Drama continues, one Emmy-winning actress has confirmed that she's met with the show's producers.
"So I just had a meeting with the folks from @QueensofDrama," Cady McClain shared on Twitter and Facebook. "I thought they were really cool people, and I enjoyed talking about their show and what I might have to offer. No matter what happens, I really hope that the women are successful in making their created show a hit. I think that would be so great for them and for all of daytime. I guess I always root for the underdog and I probably always will."
McClain won Emmys for her work as Dixie Cooney on All My Children and Rosanna Cabot on As the World Turns. She recently wrapped up a run as Kelly Andrews on The Young and the Restless.
Queens of Drama was a breakout hit for the new Pop network during its first season. Though an official announcement has yet to be made about the show's future, a casting call was released last week in an effort to find name soap actresses for the show's upcoming second season.
