Operas Chrishell For anyone who’s spent any time watching their favorite daytime television soaps in the past 10 or 20 years, there’s a very good chance that they might have seen Chrishell Stause deliver drama in fictional towns such as Salem, Genoa City, and beyond. Before she became the household name that she is today, Stause played Amanda Dillon on the highly acclaimed soap “All My Children” from 2005 to 2011. She then landed her role as Ben Weston’s sister Jordan Ridgeway on “Days of Our Lives” from 2013 to 2021.

Stause opened up about her transition from one soap character to the next. She said at the time, “Amanda was more like the underdog you rooted for who always bumbled along making all the wrong decisions, but with the best intentions at times. Jordan comes onto the canvas strong, very smart, very take-charge, all business — which Amanda never was.”

If that weren’t enough, Stause also played a character by the name of Bethany Bryant on “The Young and the Restless,” which was the soap her ex-husband Justin Hartley was also on. And while Stause’s soap credentials are pretty strong, she almost became a different kind of television star, too.
