Aaron D. Spears Discusses Justin’s Dark Turn On ‘Bold Live!’
Fans of CBS’ The Bold and the Beautiful were shocked to learn that Justin Barber (Aaron D. Spears) locked Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) up in a cage and wants to take over Spencer Publications for himself.
In doing so, Barber wants to hush-up Thomas in order to keep Liam (Scott Clifton) and Bill (Don Diamont) in the slammer, since Thomas has key intel on the night Vinny (Joe LoCicero) was struck by Bill’s car and died, that could clear the father and son.
B&B’s supervising producer, Casey Kasprzyk, chatted with Spears on an all-new edition of the soaps You Tube talk series, Bold Live!.
During it, Spears weighed-in on Justin’s justifications and going more to the dark side, sharing: “I never thought Justin would necessarily go completely, fully into that direction, but you know how it is. When you’re second fiddle for so long, things begin to wear on you, especially when you know you’re capable of being capable of being first fiddle, or first chair, or whatever word you would prefer to call that. So it’s just an accumulation of things. I think Justin just got fed up with the nonsense.”
The actor also added about the potential fall-out in Justin’s relationship with Bill, if this all comes to light, expressing, “If you really want to stretch this to the limit of a rivalry … what better rivalry would it be than Dollar Bill and Justin?”
Watch Bold Live below, then let us know if you are enjoying Justin’s machinations on The Bold and the Beautiful via the comment section.
Oh my, there is another soap besides GH. Iam sure a lot of us miss hearing and commenting about the other three. This does not surprise me about Justin, and now Hope knows,Iam sure he’ll get his come uppence, unless Justin intends on locking the whole Forrester clan, et al up ,one by one.
I never thought about Justin giving Thomas Hope for company That would be an interesting turn of events The show is starting to get somewhat interesting again Even though I was always a fan of Quinn and Eric it was nice to have Eric open his eyes and throw the tramp out of the house I wonder if Donna is going to get her honey bear back If that is the case it should make for some interesting cat fights between Donna and Quinn
OMG, is Hope just totally stupid or what? Why didn’t she immediately call the police the minute she knew what was going on?
She is brainless I was thinking the same thing Idiot
Iam wondering about this deal between Justin and Ridge. Ridge may just be making a deal with the devil. Hope it doesn’t come back to bite him in the butt.

Giovanni Mazza On Contract at General Hospital: What Are Your First Impressions?
This week, General Hospital introduced newcomer Giovanni Mazza in the role of Giovanni Palmieri, who apparently is Brook Lynn’s (Amanda Setton) second cousin, one removed or so the story goes.
The character of Gio showed up at Brook Lynn’s wedding to Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) and played the violin at the ceremony. As has been previously reported, Mazza in real-life is a professional violinist and actor.
Upon making his first appearance on the ABC daytime drama series back on May 15th, fans wondered if Gio will be sticking around and that was confirmed by the closing credits of the May 17th episode where Mazza’s name is included along with other contract players.
When the news of Mazza’s casting was announced, the talent young man took to his Instagram and shared the good news, expressing, “I am so honored, grateful, and ecstatic to announce the big news! The biggest thank you to General Hospital for bringing me.” He closed his sentiments with “So much love and joy to my new fam! YAY!!! ”
Commenting on his post included new castmates Evan Hofer (Dex) saying, “Happy to have you brother,” plus Tabyana Ali (Trina), Eden McCoy (Joss) and ABC executive Nathan Varni who said, “Congratulations! Welcome to GH!
During the May 17th episode, Gio had an exchange with Dex, where he mentioned that his father was in the military back in early 2000’s. Previously, Gio revealed to Chase that his father died in the military when he was young. So this begs the question, who is Gio’s dad?
What were you first impressions of Giovanni Mazza in the role of Gio? Who do you think he might be romantically involved with and might be also related to other than the Cerullos? Comment below.
