Phyllis Thinks She's a Power Player on Y&R — Fans Think Otherwise
Phyllis sees herself as a girl boss. She claims to have built up an impressive empire. She's hoping this will impress Cane and get him to work with her on The Young and the Restless. But now her success has been called into question. Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) has been chasing down Cane (Billy Flynn) in the maze. She wants him to invest in one of her many business ideas she came up with. But the problem is, Phyllis doesn't know what kind of business she wants to start. She just wants her hands on Cane's billions. She'd be happy to hold a dollar, if she could. The black sheep of Genoa City claims to be self-made. Y&R fans have questions. On one soap opera message board, an original poster posted the question, 'Phyllis saying she built her career…What career?' Fans took to the message board to share their thoughts. Most argued that she has incredible hacking skills. Phyllis is tech-savvy, which is a must in any business. WATCH THIS: Check out Soap Hub's new podcast, Soap Hub Says here! 'Phyllis can handle herself and is quite the techie. Too bad she is intolerable, but Cane seemed interested. She hates Victor, which is a plus,' one user responded. Another fan joked, 'If hating Victor is a plus for a job with Cane, he'd have a long line of candidates for employment!!' Fans will recall when Phyllis owned the Grande Phoenix hotel. She successfully launched the business by herself. It was later sold to Lily (Christel Khalil) and the Chancellor-Winters family. The hotel became overrun with crime, causing it to close down, but it was one of Phyllis's most successful businesses. READ THIS: What happened to Phyllis on Y&R? Phyllis was also involved in other ventures over the years. However, most of those were through Jabot and Newman Enterprises. She did co-fund a business called MVP with Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott). Phyllis was also the co-CEO of Chancellor-Winters alongside her son, Daniel (Michael Graziadei). Unfortunately, that was short-lived. Fans have been concerned about her. One user wrote, 'Phyllis is unraveling, desperate, and getting a bit unhinged. She is also a very bad friend.' What are your thoughts on Phyllis' business empire? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section. Got a sizzling fan theory? Email amber@ — yours could be our next hot topic!

Cane's Truth Comes Out in Y&R Spoilers for June 23
The Young and the Restless spoilers for Monday, June 23, demonstrate that it's not enough for Victor to be right about all things all the time. He has to make sure everyone knows how right he was about all things all of the time, by insisting that Cane explain about how right Victor was all the time. So, you know, a lot of that. Billy Flynn is Aristotle Dumas! And Aristotle Dumas is Cane Ashby (now, 97 percent less Australian). Lily (Christel Khalil) is shocked. Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) is shocked. Billy (Jason Thompson) and Sally (Courtney Hope) are shocked. Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon (Sharon Case) are shocked. Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) is shocked. But not Victor (Eric Braeden). Victor is not shocked. Victor knew it all the time. Did you hear that, fellow party guests? Victor knew it all the time! And now that Cane has revealed himself, Victor peppers him with questions about how, when, why, and where, so that Victor can insist, as soon as Cane answers, that he knew that, too. He did. Everybody clap for him. MORE: Find out what Adam is doing next week on Y&R. While Victor dominates the conversation, the rest of the party guests break into small groups to discuss how shocked they are. Lauren (Tracy Bregman), Michael (Christian J. LeBlanc), Abby (Melissa Ordway), and Chance (Conner Floyd) soon arrive to join the shocked brigade. But you know who is the most shocked? Lily! She's also been shocked the longest, since Cane revealed himself to her first. She shares how shocked she is with those who are currently less shocked (time-wise). WATCH THIS: Did you know Soap Hub has a podcast?! Check it out here! While guests wonder why Chance was invited, and try to remember if he is still a businessman or a cop? We wonder about Cane's son, Sam. Sam left town as an infant. But it's been long enough that, in soap opera time, he could easily be a teen by now. And might make a good addition to the Genoa City teen scene, since he is barely related to anyone, unlike the convoluted family trees of the Abbotts and Newmans.
