The Young and the Restless
With the success of another iconic character, Kimberlin Brown's Sheila Carter, Bell successfully crossed her over from "The Young and the Restless" to his second soap, "The Bold and the Beautiful", in 1992. The success of the crossover was due to the creativity of Bell, as the nefarious character of Sheila was presumed to have died in a fire on "The Young and the Restless".
Jacqueline MacInnes Wood
Wood made a name for herself playing the part of the "hair girl" on a commercial for First Choice Haircutters. At the age of 18, she moved to Toronto to pursue a career in acting. In May 2008, she began playing the contract role of Steffy Forrester on the American CBS Daytime soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful". Since Wood stepped into the role, Steffy has been noted as being a "bitch-nasty" vixen who is strong willed. Of playing her, Wood said in 2011, "I love playing her and developing her character. She is so different from me. It's rather cathartic, and it allows my alter ego to come out on "The Bold and The Beautiful" set five days a week."
