The casting call buzz was a complete rumor. Kelly is staying.

You all know I was sitting on pins and needles waiting for this announcement! I was getting a little worried! I wish Kelly luck in any and all endeavors, but I would miss her greatly on GH!

I was not worried, I figured it was a hoax. I also wondered if it might be actually SJB, who has been so vocal about being unhappy playing Claudia.

The description could describe Claudia, or even a Brenda recast. The only reason I actually worried was because Kelly has had lots of offers in the past. It could be possible that one day she would take one of them and leave! No matter where she ends up, I'm sure I'll be watching! What can I say? I love Kelly!

From everything I read the casting call was real but they had given KM a heads not to worry about it. I wonder if it was a way to light a fire under KM's ass to re-sign?? I wouldn't put it past TIIC
