Three-peat! James Scott wins Adonis 2009

In a development that probably surprised no one, DAYS stud James Scott was voted as soaphunks.net's Adonis 2009 on Sept. 2, the third straight year voters have accorded him the title of the hottest man on soaps.

Scott's third victory marked his most competitive yet, as he bested runner-up Jake Silbermann of ATWT by a 50.9% to 49.1% margin.

A full breakdown of the 2009 contest results is featured here.

Egglesfield bumped at AMC

Bummer. The character of Joshua Madden, for which AMC concocted one of the biggest ret-cons in soap opera history, has been backburnered so badly that the soap has bumped his portrayer to recurring status.

That means that the hunkalicious Colin Egglesfield is, for all intents and purposes, off of AMC. What a waste!

Egglesfield was an immediate hit with soap hunk watchers, amassing seven Soaphunks.net Award nominations and winning the 2005 prize for Hunkiest Newcomer. That award may be starting to become a curse: of the seven hunks to win it, only two (OLTL's John-Paul Lavoisier and ATWT's Jake Silbermann) are still with their respective soaps.

Second time's the charm

Well, it happened again, FINALLY. Now maybe if we don't make a big deal about this one, maybe it'll be followed by more and more, since it really ought to not be that big of a deal anyway...
