12:35PM Clem Bastow | She of the most entertainingly seemingly made-up name, Tammin Sursok, aka Dani from Home & Away, has been curiously quiet since leaving the beloved soap in a storm of Logies and “what I really want to do is sing!” press releases.
Evidently the little go-getter has been pounding pavements all over Tinseltown, and it’s finally come good – she’s now all over
The Young & The Restless!
Sursok has signed a three-year contract to the US daytime drama, playing Colleen Carlton – a feisty glamour girl with an appetite for scandal.
“I fall in love with my teacher and then I have an affair with one of the main guys,” Sursok said.
Truly, in the world of soaps, this is like trading in the Volvo for a Jaguar. We hope to see Tammin at the next Daytime Emmy Awards red carpet (and are also not ashamed to admit that for years, we thought, “So what, they hold the Emmys in the daytime now? Big deal!” whenever we saw any Daytime Emmys publicity. Oh, how young and foolish we are once were.)
