text: Soap stars are the new public servants. 
   
   At least that’s the message that Donald Trump is sending across with his list of speakers for the GOP convention, which includes not just one, but two actors best known for their daytime television roles: Antonio Sabato Jr. of General Hospital and Kimberlin Brown of The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful. 
   
   Brown has even managed to snag the primetime slot on Tuesday evening and is being introduced by neurosurgeon and Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson. 
   
   But who is Kimberlin Brown and what has she done to merit the honor of being one of Trump’s primetime speakers? She declined to talk to Fortune without approval from a Trump campaign representative (who has yet to respond to requests for comment), but here’s what we can gather about the actress:

   1. In the 1990s, Brown played Sheila Carter first on The Young and The Restless and then on The Bold and The Beautiful. Carter was a “devious” character who “terrorized” the fictional Genoa City and was eventually killed off by her archnemesis. She may yet come back from the dead, according to Soaps.com. 
   
   2. She has an avocado farm in California. 
   
   3. She currently hosts a show called Dramatic Designs on The Design Network, where she “guides [viewers] through some of her favorite (and most challenging) projects, showing [them] everything from space planning to the final installation, and sharing tips of the trade.” 
   
   4. Brown is a “small business owner,” according to a GOP convention statement. This may be referring to her role as a stylist and “eBoutique owner” on MK Collab, an online fashion retailer. 
   
   5. Judging by her recent Instagram posts, she is really, really excited to speak at the convention.

   On Tuesday night, White will stump for Trump at the Republican National Convention, adding a colorful voice to a lineup filled with atypical choices at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. 
   
   White, described on the convention’s program as the “business visionary behind the success” of the UFC, joins actors Scott Baio and Antonio Sabato Jr., “Duck Dynasty” star Willie Robertson, pro golfer Natalie Golbis, and a whole bunch of Trumps – Melania, Donald Jr., Eric, Tiffany, Ivanka, and of course, Donald. 
   
   “A self-described political independent, White has expressed his gratitude to presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump for helping the UFC succeed,” reads White’s bio on the RNC’s official program. “Trump hosted the once-controversial mixed martial arts competitions at his Trump Taj Mahal casino property when other venues shunned the sport.” 
   
   A featured speaker for Tuesday’s program, which is themed “Make America Work Again,” the UFC executive takes the stage after RNC co-chair Sharon Day will deliver a nominating speech for Trump’s vice-president pick, Indiana Governor Mike Pence. 
   
   The program kicks off at 5:30 p.m. ET and airs live on C-Span and streams on Google. 
   
   Asked how White plans to contribute to the program’s theme, a UFC official said, “We won’t be making those details available in advance.” 
   
   But presumably, he’ll talk tough about Trump’s economic plusses as one of many “winners” the nominee wants associated with his brand. 
   
   Tune in – it’s bound to get interesting. ||||| Tiffany Trump, Paul Ryan: Here's what's happening on Day 2 of the GOP convention 
   
   CLOSE Skip in Skip x Embed x Share USA TODAY's Susan Page gives you a preview of what to expect during day two of the Republican National Convention. 
   
   CLEVELAND — We're live in Cleveland for Day Two. On Monday, Donald Trump showed up to introduce his wife (whose speech at times sounded a lot like Michelle Obama's in 2008; the Trump campaign is denying this accusation and blamed the fallout from it on Hillary Clinton), and his supporters toasted to the fact that, while it was a bit messy, the Never Trump contingent was shut down. 
   
   But today is even bigger. Today, Trump will become Republican NOMINEE Donald Trump — no more of this presumptive stuff. 
   
   It's Trump's party 
   
   Tonight, Donald Trump will seal the deal and become the party’s official nominee. There was a moment Monday when that was called into question after Never Trumpers demanded a roll call vote on the rules in an effort to free up delegates to vote for whomever they want, but it got squashed swiftly. So now each state will ceremoniously announce how their delegation will vote, and since Trump has secured enough delegates through the primaries and caucuses (confused on how this works? Check out our convention guide) he’ll be the man in the general election starting Tuesday night. 
   
   This is actually pretty unconventional; in general, the roll call of the states takes place later in the week. But let’s be real: Has ANYTHING about Trump’s candidacy been according to the books? 
   
   The lineup 
   
   You can expect to see House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis. — whose coming-to-terms with Donald Trump has played out very publicly and at times awkwardly — and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. 
   
   Tuesday also features two of Trump's former Republican primary competitors, including New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who may still be a little bit mad at the New York billionaire after he passed him up for vice president. Ben Carson will also speak. 
   
   But in an interview with CNN on Monday night, Christie brushed off questions about not being selected and said everyone would be over it by Tuesday. He, meanwhile, would turn his focus back to his role as head of Trump's transition team should he win the presidency. 
   
   And what to expect for his speech tonight? 
   
   “I’m going to make a case tonight that Donald Trump is ready to be president of the United States, and perhaps his opponent is not," Christie said on NBC's Today Tuesday morning. 
   
   Keeping with Trump’s “showbiz” convention, Dana White, president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, and professional golfer Natalie Gulbis will also speak. 
   
   Who is Tiffany Trump?

   Two of Trump’s children — Donald Trump Jr. and Tiffany Trump — will take the stage as well. You’ve probably seen Trump Jr. on the trail — he’s been a pretty active surrogate for his dad. But Tiffany has stayed somewhat out of the spotlight. 
   
   A little background on her: Tiffany graduated from University of Pennsylvania this spring (reminder, although it would be hard to forget how often he mentions: Trump went to the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business). She double majored in sociology (with a concentration in law) and urban studies, according to People. And in 2014, her proud father told the magazine: "She's got all A's at Penn, so we're proud of her." 
   
   This spring she appeared at New York Fashion Week, and she's also dabbled in music. Her single Like a Bird is available on Amazon.

   Unity will be a major theme as the party seeks to put forth Trump as its standard bearer a day after Never Trump forces were all but vanquished. 
   
   And a bevy of speakers is set to lay into the Obama administration’s handling of the economy, the theme of the convention's second day.

   Here’s what to watch for when the convention gavels back in Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. EDT. 
   
   Party leaders take center stage 
   
   Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell Mitch McConnellProtesters crash McConnell's speech The Hill's 12:30 Report Poll: Senate should confirm Gorsuch MORE (Ky.), House Speaker Paul Ryan Paul RyanCornyn: Border wall 'makes absolutely no sense' in some areas CNN to host town hall featuring John McCain, Lindsey Graham GOP senator won't vote to defund Planned Parenthood MORE (Wis.) and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) are all scheduled to speak in a broad show of support for the party’s unconventional nominee. 
   
   It could be McConnell’s most high-profile defense of Trump. Although the longtime senator has endorsed the presumptive nominee, he’s shied away from answering questions about Trump's campaign and recently questioned the candidate's credibility. 
   
   Ryan’s speech will come one day after he branded Trump a conservative, but “not my kind of conservative.” 
   
   While he hasn’t shied away from criticizing Trump on occasion, he’s often framed the election as a “binary choice.” 
   
   McCarthy will speak not just as a House leader, but also as a California delegate selected by Trump’s campaign. 
   
   Dollars and cents 
   
   Tuesday’s theme is another play off of Trump’s campaign slogan. “Make America Work Again” will be a night devoted to hammering home how Trump’s successful business career makes him the best fit to lead the country’s economy. 
   
   Kerry Woolard, general manager of Trump Winery, and Donald Trump Jr., an executive vice president at The Trump Organization, will speak for Trump. 
   
   Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson will also take to the stage to drive the economic message home. 
   
   And Tuesday’s speeches will help answer a question perplexing delegates and the media alike: Who is Andy Wist? 
   
   Wist, who owns a restoration and waterproofing company based out of New York, has little public presence or political involvement, so his inclusion on the Tuesday list of speakers surprised many. His presence in the New York real estate scene suggests that Wist worked with Trump at one point during the candidate's real estate career, but he hasn’t publicly commented on his role. 
   
   Christie and Carson 
   
   Tuesday will also bring speeches from two former Trump presidential rivals turned allies, Ben Carson and Chris Christie, both of whom criticized Trump during the primary. 
   
   Christie’s speech will be especially noteworthy because it’s his first major speech in support of Trump since he was passed over for the vice presidential spot. 
   
   Ron Johnson Ron JohnsonA guide to the committees: Senate Hopes rise for law to expand access to experimental drugs Dems ask for hearings on Russian attempts to attack election infrastructure MORE stands alone 
   
   Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson stands alone as the only vulnerable Republican senator scheduled to deliver a speech on the convention stage, as many in his position look to keep space between themselves and Donald Trump. 
   
   Politically vulnerable Republican Sens. John McCain John McCainHannity apologizes for sharing 'inaccurate' story about McCain McCain spokeswoman: Hannity should 'correct the record' after 'fake news' tweet CNN to host town hall featuring John McCain, Lindsey Graham MORE (Ariz.), Kelly Ayotte Kelly AyotteLewandowski saw no evidence of voter fraud in New Hampshire NH governor 'not aware’ of major voter fraud Former NH AG: 'Allegations of voter fraud in NH are baseless' MORE (N.H.), Marco Rubio Marco RubioA guide to the committees: Senate Schumer: GOP will break from Trump within months GOP loses top Senate contenders MORE (Fla.) and Rand Paul Rand PaulRand Paul rejects label of 'Trump's most loyal stooge' GOP healthcare plans push health savings account expansion Congress must reform civil asset forfeiture laws MORE (Ky.), all caught up in their own primary races, are steering clear of the convention. Even Ohio Sen. Rob Portman Rob Portman­ObamaCare fix hinges on Medicaid clash in Senate A guide to the committees: Senate Two tax issues dividing Republicans on ObamaCare MORE won’t give a prime-time speech, despite the event taking place in his home state. 
   
   The move is a reversal for Johnson, who told The Associated Press last week that he would skip the convention because he wanted "to spend as much time in Wisconsin as possible” as he prepares for a fight against former Sen. Russ Feingold (D). 
   
   By accepting the high-profile role, Johnson will likely try to play to the GOP base and help boost his own turnout in the swing state. 
   
   Recent polls show Johnson behind Feingold. 
   
   Tiffany Trump goes prime-time 
   
   At this point, America is on a first-name basis with the majority of Trump’s adult children — Ivanka, Eric and Donald Jr. 
   
   On Tuesday night, 22-year-old Tiffany Trump gets her national-stage debut. 
   
   Tiffany is Trump’s daughter with his second wife, Marla Maples. She spent some time on the campaign trail during her father’s swing through Pennsylvania, but nowhere near as much time as the three elder Trumps. 
   
   She’s best known for her popular Instagram profile, as well as for a 2011 pop single she released, so the convention speech marks her first major foray into Republican politics, as well as her highest-profile appearance. 
   
   Celebrities for Trump 
   
   Trump promised a convention filled with pizzazz, and although the speaker list didn’t include many of the marquee names many had hoped for, Tuesday will include a handful of celebrities. 
   
   Dana White, the president of Ultimate Fighting Championship, will take to the podium to tout Trump. 
   
   White’s convention bio specifically notes that Trump hosted a fight at one of his New Jersey properties for the controversial mixed-martial art in the sport’s early years. While it’s blossomed into a major industry, many were concerned about the sport’s level of violence during its infancy. 
   
   Natalie Gulbis, a professional golfer and occasional golf partner of Trump’s will also speak. She’s unabashedly pro-Trump, having written a blog post titled “The Donald Trump I Know,” where she lauded the GOP nominee as “gracious, generous and inspiring.” 
   
   Soap opera star Kimberlin Brown is also scheduled to speak; she’s best known for her roles in "The Young and the Restless" and "The Bold and the Beautiful."
target: – With Day One of the Republican National Convention in the can, the GOP heads into the second day of its Cleveland rally. Per the Hill, Tuesday's convention theme will center on the slogan "Make America Work Again," and to bolster Donald Trump's message that his business acumen makes him the obvious choice to lead the US into economic prosperity, a lineup of speakers is set to take the stage. Among them: Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, Kerry Woolard (GM of Trump Winery), and Donald Trump Jr., who's an executive VP at the Trump Organization. Donald Sr.'s 22-year-old daughter, Tiffany, who USA Today notes just graduated from the University of Pennsylvania this year, will also speak—her most high-profile appearance in the campaign yet. Also on the roster: Speaker Paul Ryan, whose perpetual exasperation and frustration with Trump makes his speech one of the most highly anticipated of the night. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will also have something to say, as will Ben Carson and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who didn't seem fazed at Monday's convention gathering about not being chosen as Trump's running mate. "I'm going to make a case tonight that Donald Trump is ready to be president of the United States, and perhaps his opponent is not," Christie said on the Today show Tuesday morning, per USA Today. A handful of C-list celebrities have also been slated in, including soap opera star Kimberlin Brown and Dana White, head of the UFC mixed martial arts promotion company. (The highlight from Monday's convention: Melania Trump's speech.)
