Golden Globe After-Party

Hey everybody! Just thought I'd check in and say "hey" while we are enjoying this short break from filming Days.

Did everybody like this year's Golden Globes? Sunday night was fun. Molly, Mark and I got invited to this year's "Stars to Shine at Charity" Golden Globe after-party. The red carpet event was held at a club in Hollywood and benefitted Britticares International, an organization dedicated to helping children with cancer. So, it was a great night to dress up and support a great cause.

Here's a photo from the event.

Hope 2010 is bringing you all great things!

Special Thanks!

Thanks to everybody who came out to the Day of Days fan event. I had so much fun and it was great having face time with everybody. It's always great seeing so much support for the show and I can't wait for next year's event!

Thanks, again!

These are some of fun photos taken from the event, enjoy!

Time to Party

Halloween is upon us. I still have no idea what my plans are for this weekend. A group of us are thinking of heading down to Long Beach to visit the famous Queen Mary to see their haunted mazes. But, haunted mazes are not what they used to be. To be honest, they just don't scare me. There are way too many people and you see everything happening ahead of you!

Here's a picture at Taylor Spreitler's birthday party...

Anyway, last weekend was Taylor's sweet 16 birthday party in Hollywood. I went with Molly and met up with Mark Hapka, Nadia Bjorlin, and Brandon Beemer. I wish I had a party like that at 16! She had this huge Fender guitar cake I thought was SO cool. They were spinnin' a good playlist, so Molly and I busted out our moves on the dance floor while Mark, Nadia, and Brandon were studying our skills. Haha.

As of now we're on another week hiatus and getting ready for next Saturday, November 7th for Day of Days!

Who is coming?!

I'm Back!

Just recently, the Days cast had a much-needed two-week break. The week prior, I taped six episodes, and the week prior to that, I taped five episodes. Also known as, "Hell Week."

Not just because my scenes had a lot of dialogue, but also because they were emotionally demanding and required a lot of focus to put a character in the shoes of a teen father. You see, Chad finally finds out about the baby... yes I know, I know.... it's been long overdue, but soon you'll get to see Chad's true colors after finding out Mia's secret.

In case you were wondering, the United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate, and has reported 745,000 teen pregnancies each year! That's a random, but alarming fact of the day for you. Even though I'm not a teen father, I still got to experience a small taste of it. Being a teen father is one thing, but being a teen father and not knowing about it is another. So when that bomb does get dropped on Chad, he has so many things going through his mind at once, he's putting the pieces to the puzzle together, he's understanding why she's been acting the way she has towards him. I don't think any teenager is really prepared for that kind of news, and most may think it won't happen to them, but trust me it does. I feel extremely blessed to be able to play this character, I get to experience things I never would in real life. During those two weeks of constant taping I learned a lot about myself, about my character, and the actors I work with. I had some amazing scenes with Taylor, Ari, James, and Alison. They are fantastic to work with... DOOL fans are in for a treat!

During the break you can guess I slept a lot. Recovering from my hectic schedule. LOL! Molly and I went to the Emmys and had a blast!!! I was so stoked to see DOOL win some Emmys. Molly looked so beautiful, she really did, and I felt so lucky to be there with her.

We also went to the beach with friends. Molly and I were being taught how to skim board, but that mission was a failure. Seriously, it has got to be the most difficult sport in the world... mad props to the kids that can pull that off!

Alright, everyone, thanks so much for taking the time to read what I have to say, you all have been so awesome!!! If you have a Twitter, follow Molly and I :) @scusecaseyd @mollydollyy

Take care,
Casey Deidrick

Meet Casey Deidrick

I thought it would be a great idea to have one of the show's up-and-coming stars, Casey Deidrick, start his own blog on the site to show you the world in the eyes of a "Days of our Lives" actor. So, I hope you enjoy Casey's first blog and continue to come back and check out his latest updates at Casey's Corner, coming soon to our site! In the meantime, I, the Days Insider, will be also bringing you inside scoops from your other favorites on the show. Enjoy!

Whaaaat's up DAYS' fans??

This is Casey Deidrick (Chad Peterson). I know some of you are probably thinking to yourself..."Who?" or "Oh, that tall creep who knocked Mia up!"

Well, that's okay, it's understandable... hopefully by me writing these weekly blogs and uploading some of my favorite photos, I can connect more with you loyal DAYS fans! I'm crossing my fingers. Anyways, some very exciting stuff will be coming up soon, with this little love triangle I got going on here, between Will, Mia, and I. Maybe some of you remember your teenage romances?? Well, I am sure they don't involve babies being sold on the black market, or baby swaps, or any of that jazz. But when you find your first love, I'm pretty sure you'd do just about anything to win him/or her back... am I right? So, don't write Chad off just yet!

These past few weeks I've had a crazy schedule with taping the show, and have been dealing with some pretty heavy scenes. In case some of you don't already know, I've been spending a lot of my time with my co-star and beautiful girlfriend Molly Burnett (Melanie Layton). She and I have been causing some chaos together, along with co-star and homey for life, Mark Hapka.

Molly, I just have to put it out there, is the most amazing person I've ever met. And I couldn't be happier being with her.

Let's see what else has been going on. Oh yeah, my band played a show last night. For all you metal music fans, check out my band, A Dreadful Fall, on our MySpace page.

Ok, I'm going to go meet up with Molly to see "The Time Traveler's Wife." I just wanted to say thanks to whomever decided to read this, I know you all have busy lives, but seriously thanks for checking my new blog out. And even if you don't like my character on the show, or the teenage storyline, I just wanted to say thank you for watching.

Everyone have a great week! I love my DOOL fans!
