When: Sunday, June 22 Where: The Beverly Hilton Who was there: Guests included Emme Marcy Rylan, Karla Martínez, Kim Matula, Meagan Robar, Mishael Morgan, Mario Lopez, Donna Mills, Aisha Tyler, Elizabeth Hendrickson, Hunter King and many more! GofG: I know a lot of people have been talking about your near-death experience. Obviously, a very life-changing experience. How did that really affect you? Mishael Morgan (The Young and the Restless): Basically, long story short, I went down to Trinidad when I was younger on a Christmas vacation with my family. I broke my neck the day that we arrived in a car accident. Then there was a mix-up with the surgery so I was flat on my back for 5 days, and I just started thinking about my life. I realized, you know, you could die tomorrow; I could be paralyzed from the neck down right now. But if I get a chance, if I get mobility back and I get a chance to walk, I'm going to do what I want to do; I'm not going to live my life life safe anymore. That's basically what I said. GofG: So, second year in a row being nominated. Congratulations on that! How does it feel? Hunter King: Exciting! Really exciting. It doesn't feel real. GofG: This year you'll be turning 21, am I right? HK: Wow, you're on it! Yes, I am. GofG: I had to do some research beforehand! Do you have any plans for the big 2-1? HK: A lot of people say Vegas, but I was just talking to Amelia [Heinle] and we're obsessed with the movie Frozen. So I'm kind of thinking of having a Frozen-themed birthday party.
