Various news

going back to the last update

December 27th, 2011:

It has been a while since I updated this site, except for the blog section. A few things have transpired this year in Hunter's life and some of it I will not bother to mention, like her legal troubles (all that is online for all to see) and the comments of the wife of one of Hunter's co-stars at the Daytime Emmys. So let me work backwards from most recent news to news from a few months back.

Firstly, let me wish you a Happy New Year!! Thanks for visiting this site in 2011.

Secondly, if you see any references to my @HunterTyloFan Twitter account on this site, I just closed it recently because I have not used it in ages.

Session

Hunter recently released a limited edition coffee table book called Session. You can buy it at her official web site (huntertylo.ws). It is a soft cover book with 28 pages and 26 photos, covering taboo topics and some stories Hunter shares in the book. My tip is to wait for the PDF version in January 2012. Either way, the money raised goes to her charity.

Magazine

Hunter also recently mentioned on Facebook that she will be publishing her own digital magazine. She asked people to email her some questions in her Facebook so she could answer some in the magazine. I do not know much else about it currently so I will have to wait until more information is released and then I can mention it here.

Chats

Hunter's third live online chat was held over the weekend before Christmas. There is an archive of the transcripts on huntertylo.ws. Many fans expressed their appreciation to Hunter for doing this. There will be more live online chats in 2012.

Hunter on B&B

There was some news a few months ago that Hunter had not been booked for any further scenes on B&B indefinitely (since her last working week there in September). She has appeared since her last scenes aired in early November, in the Thanksgiving episode and she will also make an appearance for Christmas but that seems to be it at the moment. It has caused quite a stir online and fans are encouraged to write to the show to ask for more scenes with Hunter's character "Taylor". I guess it is no surprise that this was coming given the hint in the opening credits of the show. Hunter was dropped to a sideline scene next to the catwalk.

Charity events

Since the last news update on this site, Hunter has made various public appearances for charity. One of these was the Help Group's Teddy Bear Ball. This was to aid kids with learning disorders. Another appearance she made was to feed the hungry at the Union Rescue Mission (more here: Hunter Tylo Feeds The Hungry On Skid Row | Highlight Hollywood). These two appearances were just in the last few months.

Two year anniversary

Hunter and Gersson celebrated two happy years of marriage in late November. My congratulations to them!

Mike's passing

Hunter's fans remembered the four year anniversary of Mike's passing in the middle of October. A Facebook page devoted to his memory (at Mickey Tylo II~In Loving Memory), the old light a candle site, and Hunter's Facebook profile and Facebook page were the main places in which fans posted messages to Hunter at the time. Hunter responded thanking fans for remembering Mike. It is hard to believe that it has been four years now since he passed away. My thoughts at the time were especially with Chris for several reasons I outlined here four years ago.

Fan event

Since the last update on this site (below), Hunter attended the Daytime Emmys and the B&B Fan Event. I will skip all the hoopla surrounding the Emmys and certain comments made about Hunter's character and instead mention the fan event in late August. Hunter put on a Rise and Shine Java & Mimosas by the pool breakfast for fans who joined her from all over the world. Online comments from those that went showed that they were quite appreciative of her for doing this. She also signed autographs at the fan event later and took photos with fans (plenty of which turned up on Facebook).

And that brings us back to the last update (below) so that is the majority of what has happened since then.

May 2011

Hunter is officially a "twit"!

or a "Twitser" as she calls it

May 12th, 2011:

Hunter launches Twitter account!

Just hours before I posted this, the sexy and gorgeous goddess Hunter launched her Twitter account. She confirmed it in her Facebook and forum. You can find her on Twitter at @TaylorMade4U.

I love your tweets Hunter!!

Update 2:

Hunter has attracted almost 320 followers overnight. Nice going Hunter! I even gave her a teeny bit of cheek I think, that she was not too sure about (see @HunterTyloFan). My response was that she can come and get me :) I am officially a twit too, have been for a few years now, so I make all sorts of comments on Twitter.

December 2010

Hunter to launch new site.

+ Merry Christmas!!

December 16th, 2010:

Hunter to launch new site!

Hunter recently posted in her forum that she will launch a new web site soon where fans can talk to her. We have all heard that one before I know but it is what she said so I'll add the link to this site when it's available. The main reason for the new site is due to the 5000 friend limit on Facebook.

Merry Christmas!!!

As you may've noticed, this site has been as boring as bat**** this year! Hunter has kept away from controversy by concentrating on her marriage and job. Congrats Gersson and Hunter on the one year anniversary recently! So there hasn't been a lot to mention for a change. But that's a good thing in some ways.

I'd like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

May 2010

Hunter to appear at WE Build!

Want to see her sweat?

May 18th, 2010:

Hunter to sweat it out!

Habitat For Humanity will be launching the 'Women Empowerment Build' on Saturday May 22nd, 2010 and Hunter Tylo will be making an appearance on the Sunday of that weekend. More information about the project is available at www.HumanityCA.org.

B&B gets Guinness record, believe it or not?

And in other current news, Hunter's show B&B has been awarded a 'Guinness World Record' as the "Most Popular Daytime TV Soap". According to soap blog 'We Love Soaps' today, the cast and the widely criticised head honcho, Brad Bell, was presented with the certificate on the set of the show. In a time when criticism of the poor writing on B&B has reached its highest point ever, if one ever needed proof that junk sells more than quality then this is it, no matter what the ratings are like around the world!

HunterNet online for 11 years!

My little baby (this site) is 11-years-old today. Thanks to all of Hunter's fans for dropping by over the years and helping to make this the most popular unofficial Hunter Tylo fan site in the world!!

December 2009

Hunter is married!

Yay! Congrats!!!

December 9th, 2009:

Although I was hoping to leave this news alone for a bit longer for her privacy, there's no point now that people know and will read more this week. Here's some news that may surprise you a bit if you do happen to be unaware, or might put a smile on your face if you have heard but aren't sure whether or not to believe it.

I am pleased to inform Hunter's fans that she got married just over a week ago!! The incredibly lucky guy is Gersson Archila. I would like to congratulate Hunter and Gersson and I wish them both much happiness!

So I guess I should now refer to my goddess Hunter as Mrs Archila :) I'm sure her professional name will stay the same though.

Congrats Hunter! Although I think you're quite a wasically wabbit, as usual, you know I love you and that you have my support as always!!

Fans can post their messages to HT in this forum topic if they like.

Hunter promotes drink. Fan annoyance at B&B

November 18th, 2009:

MC2

In recent news, Hunter has signed on for a promotional campaign for the Beverage Plus "MC2" energy drink. She joins several other celebrities that have entered into celebrity endorsement and appearance/promotions agreements to promote the drink across the country. The company also has plans to distribute its products in up to 130 countries. This could be some awesome promotion for Hunter herself.

B&B

Where Hunter's job is concerned, there has been plenty of criticism of B&B in forums lately from fans that have tuned out consistently this year. This time it is because fans are noticing false spoilers on soap web sites. These are for upcoming episodes of B&B and are mentioning Hunter's character. However, when fans decide to give the show a chance for an episode or two and tune in she is a no-show. Annoyed but wise fans are now reading reviews and the forums first to see if others saw her on the show before deciding to download an episode or watch what they recorded at home.

It really is sad that a once great but now poor quality show is so desperate for ratings that they would need to trick people into watching it seems. And fans are noticing that storylines appear to be showing a different direction for characters from what the spoilers say. The writers are excessively obsessed with the "Logans" and it really is becoming quite laughable now. But hey, if that's what it takes to win a best show daytime Emmy ...

I have another rather simple "trick" the writers could employ to attract more viewers: WRITE A DECENT FREAKIN' STORYLINE FOR TAYLOR you shmucks! It's not rocket science!!!!

Hunter really is far too good for this show. She deserves a better opportunity to use her looks, talent, humor and so on to a much greater extent elsewhere. I like seeing her on B&B but I believe her talents are being wasted there. She does an excellent job always on B&B but it's still a waste of her talents.

Hunter was out and about last week and looking totally gorgeous, as usual! She attended the 2009 International Womens Media Foundations' "Courage in Journalism" Awards on October 28, 2009 at the Beverly Hills Hotel, Los Angeles.

Joining her on the red carpet, as seen in the photos added to this gallery album, were Alley Mills and Sarah Brown.

September 2009

An apology of sorts

To a fan base & Brad Bell

September 1st, 2009:

Continuing on from my post below, I would like to point out two facts and make an apology. This is a further insight again into the bizarre side of what Hunter has to put up with sometimes!

One

The first fact is that yes Hunter posted a beautiful (some might say "controversial") photo of herself in her Facebook this month and a rumor was soon started at a B&B forum that she would appear in a men's magazine. Any douchebag could have come up with that and someone did in a B&B forum. As I stated here yesterday, a small group of Hunter's haters decided to attack Hunter for that in a "Brooke" forum, instead of attacking the rumor-monger. Strange? You bet, because they believed it!

Their latest discussions still show that they do not understand why Hunter decided to laugh specifically at that rumor last week in response to the hatred (and about the photo controversy that lead to it). The explanation, once again, is that some of the haters actually fell for the rumors started elsewhere and they began defaming Hunter and slagging her off otherwise for nothing (it was a rumor).

That is why Hunter played it all up (with help from fans like me, I have admitted in her Facebook) and the haters are scratching their heads trying to work it out still. They are even using timelines of events as "proof" that she is to blame - for people not working it out themselves, mind you. And the haters wonder why we all laughed at them?

One of them even posted in recent days: "You can fool some of the people ... but you can't fool thinking people." Well, I will be darned because they fell for it but blamed Hunter! I am still slapping my head in complete disbelief :) Oh well, Hunter knows we all love her for who she is and not her job or any other reason and that is most important. Who cares what her haters think but cannot work out for themselves (the "thinking people" that they are and all)?

Two

The second fact relates to an apology from me. Over the weekend I took a rare opportunity to criticise those very haters via the official B&B forum, which was closing before PAID Inc took over this week. It was obviously not all of the "Brooke" and KKL fans, as common sense tells us and I explained.

When I called them out on their recent absurd behavior and uncalled for attacks on Hunter (that started the minute she posted a photo in her Facebook for her friends only, not the disturbed haters), one chose to claim that it was an entire fan base that I attacked. Now, I clearly stated that it was a "small group" and they can check their own copy if they saved it to confirm that.

It is sad that I should have to do this because of the minority but I do apologise to the better majority of the fan base in question (which I did not even name in my initial posts at the forum). As I've stated, I was not talking about the whole bang lot of them. But others, who do like Hunter as well as KKL, may have mistakenly heard differently from the "bad seeds" among them. This is a shame!

It is my understanding that B&B head honcho, Brad Bell, was responsible for that forum. I am happy to apologise to him for the disruption I caused there in a small part of it on the weekend. I also apologised there to Hunter's fans for messing up a thread of ours when a hater came in and went nuts. Having said that, I do not regret being the only male to stand up and speak out there like I did, instead of hiding in smaller hate forums where people can be bagged in a cowardly manner. I made an error in judgement in joining one such forum recently but decided to leave yesterday to show some class as Hunter would expect of us fans.

There was always much bias against Hunter's fans at the official B&B forum, so it was exactly where what I said needed to be said. Some people continue to support me on that stance and I am grateful for that (the majority in one topic thread stood up for what was right against the haters). I rarely waste my time in forums but I do actually applaud those critics that had the guts to stand up to me, believe it or not. It shows a lot of passionate support for someone they like and defend against opposing opinions like mine. We do not learn if we do not debate sometimes!

I sometimes put myself and my opinions out there under public scrutiny and I expect others to do the same whether they agree with me or not. I am glad that some did speak up over the last few days. On that note, though, let us hope the Hunter haters behave themselves now for a while (the bad element that is, not the whole lot of them). Hunter gave them no reason for their defamatory attacks by posting in her Facebook for her friends only. The Hunter haters are only humiliating the person and fan base they claim to support much more!
