GH’s Tovar Guests Her Way Into An Emmy Nod!

Tags:

This is the first year that the National Academy Of Television Arts & Sciences introduced the new category of Outstanding Guest Star In A Drama Series to honor an actor who has appeared in a limited number of episodes during the eligibility period. And GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Elena Tovar (Rosalie) fit the bill!

“The ladies over at GH reached out and asked if I did want to submit something, what would I want to put in?” she recalls. “I had just done a scene with Chad Duell (Michael) where we’re sitting together in a bar and basically getting smashed and having a conversation about life. I had a lot of fun shooting it, and I think that comes through. So I submitted that scene.”

But the actress had forgotten all about it until her Twitter feed exploded with congratulations while she was at the gym when the nominations were announced! “The fans have been so sweet,” Tovar enthuses. “It is really nice how excited they are and how much they love that character.”

And Tovar knows she’s in some pretty elite company in her category with veteran actors like Donna Mills (ex-Madeline) and Meredith Baxter (ex-Maureen, THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS). “It’s crazy!” she says. “It’s mind blowing!”
