Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (born April 17, 1987) is a Canadian actress, DJ and singer. At the age of 18, Wood moved to Toronto to pursue a career in acting. She is best known for her role as Steffy Forrester on the long-running American soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. Wood's performance in the role has been met with critical acclaim, having garnered her two consecutive nominations for the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series in 2012 and 2013. She is also known for her role in the Disney XD television movie Skyrunners and the horror film Final Destination 5 (2011). --- Born Jacqueline MacInnes Wood in Windsor, Ontario, the daughter of Sandy. Wood is of French, Native American, Scottish and Brazilian ancestry. Her sister is Dani Probert, who was the wife of the late NHL player, Bob Probert. Wood took acting classes at Ryerson University, Centre for the Arts and the Armstrong Acting Studio. Wood made a name for herself playing the part of the "hair girl" on a commercial for First Choice Haircutters. 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." In 2012, Wood received her first nomination for Outstanding Younger Actress for her portrayal of Steffy at the 39th Daytime Emmy Awards. In 2011, she starred in her first feature film, Final Destination 5. In September 2010, Wood's casting was announced and it was revealed that filming was underway in Vancouver, Canada. This film is the fifth in the Final Destination horror film franchise. Wood portrayed Olivia Castle. The character was described as "a smart mouthed beauty who wears glasses" and is "caught in a spine chilling, stomach churning situation that will make viewers squirm in their seats", which was a risky eye procedure which Wood was terrified to do. Final Destination 5 was a critical and commercial success, grossing over $157 million at the American Box Office. --- Wood is a DJ, and singer. She released her debut single "After Hours", a dance-influenced song penned by her wardrobe stylist, Chaz E. Foley, in January 2012.
