Bold and Beautiful

Hey everyone! With the New Year come the annual recognitions and awards that are given to the best actors, actresses and crew members for the hard work that they have done in the previous year. One such award in the Annual NAACP Image Award which honors projects and individuals that promotes diversity in the arts in television, recording, literature and motion pictures and it is going to hold its 40th award ceremony this year at Shrine Auditorium on Thursday, February 12. The good news is that two stars from Bold and Beautiful have made it to the nomination list this year.

The actors who have been nominated are Dan Martin and Texas Battle who have both been nominated in the same category which is Outstanding Actor in a Daytime Drama Series. Though this is the first time that the two actors have been nominated for the awards, the series has been nominated for the awards earlier also under the categories of Outstanding Daytime Drama for Bradley P. Bell in 1993, Outstanding Actor in a Daytime Drama Series for Usher as Raymond in 1999, for Antonio Sabato, Jr. as Dante Damiano in 2005 and 2006, and finally for Mykel Shannon Jenkins as Charlie Baker in 2008.

We know Dan Martin as Lieutenant Baker who joined the series in 1997 and for the past twelve years has been involved in the lives of the Forrester, Logan and Marone families. He has become an important cast member as he has been closely entangled with the families as they faced different crisis. His nomination for the NAACP Awards has been due to his work in the storyline where Eric Forrester was poisoned in the series in 2008. Texas Battle is comparatively new to the series in which he first appeared in May 2008. He plays the role of Marcus Walton who has a connection with the Logan family which had been kept a secret by his mother Donna for a long time. His nomination is based on his performance in the storyline where Marcus is reunited with Donna and he tries to make sense of how his mother could have deserted him for such a long time.
