Justin Gaston has joined the cast of Days of our Lives as Ben, Jordan’s (Chrishell Stause) brother. Gaston is married to The Young and the RestlessMelissa Ordway (Abby). You may recognize Gaston for his appearance in Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” video…Oh yeah, he’s also Miley Cyrus’ ex. Gaston began taping late last year and should begin early later this month.

Michael Muhney (ex-Adam) and Billy Miller’s (ex-Billy) final week on The Young and the Restless brought in the audience. Y&R hauled its largest audience (5.73 million viewers in the U.S.) since the week ending February 29, 2008.

Speaking of Miller, the actor dropped by the set of CBS’ The Crazy Ones last week and Sarah Michelle Gellar shared a photo on Twitter. No word yet if Miller will guest star on the CBS sitcom. Miller recurred on Ringer with Gellar a couple of a years ago. But is the former Buffy and All My Children star a Y&R fan? The actress included #theRealBillyAbbott in her tweet.
