On January 22, 2023, Alison Sweeney will officially mark 30 years of playing the role of Sami Brady on Days of Our Lives. Sweeney visited The Kelly Clarkson show and talked about playing the role since she was 16 and her new Hallmark Christmas movie. On the subject of Days she said, “I feel like I grew up playing this character, playing Sami Brady. I started when I was 16 years old and I was just this dopey kid. I just loved it. I love my job. I love working there. The crew, they all watched me grow up, get married and have my own kids. Now I get to go back every once in a while and visit and you do get that sense of reuniting with everyone again.” The full interview will be out today, watch a clip of her talking about 30 years of Sami below!
