What’s in that baby blanket? Plus, pull-ups, sexy poses and… underarm fans?
When a Young & Restless actor does a photo (or in this case a video) dump of goodies from behind-the-scenes there are always some eye-opening bits. In this case, who knew they had little fans to keep stars’ underarms dry between scenes?! Watch for Tyler Johnson (ex-Theo) to be wielding one of these little gadgets in the first video of Cait Fairbanks’ recent post to Instagram.
Other nuggets include Fairbanks and Camryn Grimes (Mariah) catching a ride on set (they insists it’s safe), and Bryton James (Devon) showing off some impressive pull-up skills as he keeps busy in the studio between takes.

We also catch a glimpse of Gina Tognoni (ex-Phyllis), Michael Mealor (Kyle) mugging, and of the gorgeous Fairbanks striking a sexy pose in a red dress on the Valentine’s Day set.

The real star of this particular video dump is the elusive Baby Dominic. Since the moment Devon and Abby first looked down into that brown towel after Mariah gave birth, viewers have been frustrated at not being able to catch even a glimpse of the newborn. So, what are the actors cooing over in that blanket? Watch the video in the post below to find out!

They could at least get a doll and then wrap it in the blanket so at least it looks like a baby body under there instead of a rolled up towel like another poster mentioned!
Then there's the blanket folded over the face!!!
Is there ANY PARENT out there that has covered their baby's face with a blanket???? I would hope not!!!
At least if they got a doll, they could film from a very far distance so you could see a face but couldn't make out that it was a doll and not a human baby. There are camera tricks. Its 2021 - its Hollywood, they can do better than a rolled up towel!!!
Fake baby role blankets and other things
Fake baby blanket role has become a viewer annoyance on Young and Restless. Everyone knows there is a pandemic and that people have to be careful. However, they are using a real baby on sister soap, BOLD & BEAUTIFUL (Steffie & Finn's baby.)
If we said caption this on the photo of Abbie, Ashley and Fake Baby Blanket role Dominic above, it would have to be something like Ashley saying "Even I can't fake that's a baby anymore."
They are using a real baby on General Hospital, (Bailey). They have not used a real baby on Day's yet and that fake baby who never leaves the stroller is an annoyance on Day's audiences. You know even if they didn't want to bring in real babies right now, there are so many other options like the baby dolls that look real. See below.
Is it time for them to bring in a real baby on Young and Restless. Should testing and vaccines be so secure at this point that they can start using real children in acting roles again?
By the way, the shot of Ashley alone was so beautiful, we just had to use it.
