Days of our Lives James Scott Retires From Acting

He has decided to pursue a career in meditation - saying

“In 2014, after a successful career in the entertainment industry, I found myself with everything and nothing.” Despite having “money, celebrity, and status” he revealed the grief that came along with the perks of Hollywood. “I had worked tirelessly for the better part of two decades to attain wealth and validation, yet no external thing could touch the emptiness I felt and the worthlessness I experienced.” Scott decided to face his “despair and depression” in order to change his life, which led to an Indian meditation center. “I went for a week and stayed for a year.” After his journey, he discovered a “newfound peace” and now wants to “inspire others to do the same…”

In an Instagram post, Scott is pictured alongside Dr. Deepak Chopra, an alternative medicine advocate, captioned, “To follow your heart is to never know where you will be lead, that is the beauty of its mystery. It was a pleasure to spend a morning teaching with Dr Chopra.” Now, here’s where his past daytime career comes into play… A fan, thisnthatfinds_tricia_baker, expressed how much she’s missed Scott and suggested that he call Days of Our Lives and come back to Salem with Sami. Scott was quick to reply, which, once and for all, confirms his daytime status, “@thisnthatfinds_tricia_baker hi – thank you for joining me here, please know that I will never. Never. Never. Never. Never. Go back to Hollywood let alone [Days of Our Lives]. There is nothing interesting there for me.”

DOOL needs to recast EJ or drop the him being alive all together

So did MEK actually suck James off? Or did James, as has been rumored, just tease him mercilessly?

by Anonymousreply 2October 24, 2020 4:36 AM

Hopefully, Michael had been around long enough not to fall for that guy's 'charms' such as they are.

The no blinking thing ever hopefully tipped him off.

I don't think James CAN go back to DAYS.

by Anonymousreply 3October 24, 2020 4:38 AM

And is he falling back on his masters in engineering? How is he going to support himself? That Days money must be close to being spent if it hasn't already.

Oh mom @ r4, don’t worry I’m not moving back in with you.

Sounds like a cult.

[quote] How is he going to support himself? That Days money must be close to being spent if it hasn't already.

His wife is a therapist and he was on soaps for about 10 years. If he invested properly he should be able to live comfortably.

That being said he's been on this spiritual "journey" since 2014 and he shows no sign of stopping.

R7, no he doesn't. He sounds like a grown up who refuses to play THE SAME AGE FOR 30 YEARS in those gawd-awful soaps.

by Anonymousreply 9October 24, 2020 5:06 AM

R4, if he has a master's in engineering, he is very smart. He can patent inventions and make a lot of money.

James is smoking hot, but he cannot be the ONLY hot, tall British man who can play that role.

However, being a head cashier at Target pays more than DAYS these days, so that may be the issue.

Am I supposed to know who this guy and didn't the Beatles themselves eventually find the whole Indian meditation racket a load of crap?

[R8] They married in 2015 and divorced in 2016.

R14 I've been telling them for years to hire Los Angeles-based gay-instaho-model-actor, Nick Hounslow, who hails from Lincolnshire, England.

His acting is on DOOL level, and the soap could probably get him relatively cheap.

And whatever Nick might lack on the 13 x 8.5 front, he could make up with his ass.

hmm, Peter Porte might be a good EJ as well

by Anonymousreply 19March 8, 2021 8:48 PM

R19 Funny you mention Peter. .. Nick and Peter were actually a pretty serious couple around the time Peter was on Y&R; they even bought a house together. (The breakup wiped most everything from social media.) .. You'd lose EJ's British-ness, though, with Peter in the role. .. I think a lot viewers like that about E.J. .. I like Peter, though, and believe I once suggested him to play Eve and Theresa's brother, "Andrew Donovan," when they those two characters were on, and/or maybe FCF's older brother, "Alexander Kiriakis."

I suppose it's difficult for someone that short to find decent roles.

by Anonymousreply 21March 8, 2021 10:01 PM

R2 MEK never got so much as a stiff. He was just tortured mercilessly and cock teased within an inch of his life and was crushed and deeply heartbroken is the way it's been mentioned about for years.

That bad huh? Well he has attributes that compensate for his lack of acting skills.

By the time James decided to leave Days relations between him and Ken Corday we're not good. Ken Corday was one factors as why James finally left the show.

I just want Mr. ASS FACE Dr. Deepak Chopra to know the number of beautiful men who play his bullshit tapes while we’re fucking and, Yes, I would punch him in the eye if I ever encountered him.

James hasn't posted on his IG account since December. He used to post something a couple of times a week. Wonder if he's OK.

Is James Scott the daytime actor with the famed 11"x9" cock or something like that?

by Anonymousreply 36March 10, 2021 10:16 PM

R36 Yes, and it's 13 X 8.5.

If memory serves correct, Scott won the vote for the top Adonis Award at the now-bygone "Shrine to the Soap Hunks" website, something like five years in a row.

R41 James is a little over 6'4 in height, so even if he were to be proportional, he should be close to 11".
