4. Brad’s most memorable storyline as Tony Jones is known simply as B.J.’s Heart and he was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for that story. It involved Tony and his wife Bobbie Spencer’s (Jacklyn Zeman) daughter B.J. Jones After a tragic accident, B.J.’s heart was transplanted into her dying cousin. B.J. was mentioned not long ago when Bobbie gave her grown daughter Carly Corinthos’ (Laura Wright) newborn daughter, Donna, a music box that had been B.J.’s.
Fans still remember the poignant scene in which Tony listened to B.J.’s heart beating inside of her cousin Maxie.
