Tracy Melchior Previews Her New Role on GAMES PEOPLE PLAY (EXCLUSIVE)

Soap fans who remember Tracy Melchior as Kristen Forrester on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL will get to see the actress in a whole new role as a tatted, pierced, openly lesbian “talent recruiter” in the new BET primetime sudser, GAMES PEOPLE PLAY, premiering on Tuesday, April 23. “I play Roxanne Wood, a Hollywood madam. How much fun is that?” Melchior shared with Soaps In Depth. “Mostly, I interact with [Parker McKenna Posey’s] actress character. She’s my first client that I get — I basically seek her out in a casting office.”

GAMES PEOPLE PLAY is based on the popular book, Games Divas Play, by Angela Burt-Murray and centers around a basketball wife trying to protect her family, a tenacious journalist struggling to rebuild her career, and a groupie who is looking to become a star. Laila, the struggling actress who signs on with Melchior’s character, will clearly do whatever it takes to make her dreams come true, but how far will she really go?
