Stephanie Beard and Carlos Bustamente hosting The Zone

Stephanie Beard (born August 27, 1983 in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada), is a Canadian actress, voice actress and television and radio personality. Her radio host persona goes by Suga BayBee, and hosting The Zone, she is called Sugar.

Since 2001, Beard has hosted The Zone, a series of short interstitial segments aired between regular weekday programming on the Canadian children's network YTV. Her distinctive "high-pitched and squeaky" voice can be heard on a number of Japanese anime productions that have been dubbed into English, including Sailor Moon (Rini)^[1] and Beyblade (Ming-Ming).

She has also played Wish Bear in the most recent Care Bears movies, Journey to Joke-a-lot and the Big Wish Movie.^[1]

She also plays Kara on Di-Gata Defenders, a show on Teletoon.^[1] She was also the voice actress for Bubbles of The Powerpuff Girls Movie in the junkyard scene where the girls first reunited with their arch-rival Mojo Jojo after he saved them from the Gangreen Gang.^{[citation needed]} Another movie in which she appeared is the "Three Santa Claus Brothers" which is frequently shown on YTV in December.

Beard's Suga BayBee was also a major character on the Mad Dog and Billie morning show formerly aired on Toronto radio station Kiss 92 FM. Her performance of "The Real Suga BayBee", a parody of Eminem's "The Real Slim Shady", became a local hit on that station.

Beard also "guest-starred" in a series of Crispy Crunch television commercials in 2002 with commercial actor Christian Potenza. The slogan of the commercials ("A little different every time") was also the theme, and each commercial was slightly different from the others. Beard's only contribution, the same in each one, was holding up a record and exclaiming, "Wicked!" One of the commercials was narrated by Beard's character, but not by Beard herself.
