Eric Braeden

Although Eric Braeden has played his share of exciting scenes during his run as Victor, the Young & Restless star admits that it was a big-screen role which left him thinking that he might have gotten in over his head… quite literally!. While chatting with Maurice Benard during the...

Ah, the internet. A glorious place of cute cat videos, funny memes and throwback pics from bygone eras reminding us of the glory days of speedos and ’80s ‘staches. OK, if that last bit seems a little specific, there’s a reason for it — just ask Young & Restless‘ Eric Braeden!

It’s no surprise to anyone that Young & Restless is not just a U.S. hit, but also an international one. The soap is shown all over the world and adapted to pretty much every language known to man. Over in France, the show has been broadcast continuously since 1989,...

It would be the battle of the century. When General Hospital‘s Maurice Benard (Sonny) dropped his latest episode of State of Mind with All My Children vet J.R. Martinez (Brot), he celebrated the Dancing With the Stars winner by breaking out some funky moves. The actor’s co-stars weighed in...

Eric Braeden has been portraying the iconic Victor Newman on “The Young and the Restless” for more than 42 years, garnering a Daytime Emmy Award for his portrayal in 1998 in the category of Outstanding Lead Actor. With that many years under his belt and eight nominations overall in the same category, along with countless other accolades, the daytime legend commands respect without uttering a word. In fact, Braeden went viral last August when Twitter user @chris_notcapn tweeted, “If you’re a millennial and know who this white man is, you spent a lot of time with your grandmother as a child.” So, it’s disheartening to learn that there was a time not too long ago in which Braeden could’ve stopped playing the character had the show’s previous regime gotten its way.

Needless to say, the boxing enthusiast pulls no punches. Eric Braeden is not a man who minces words. So he held nothing back when he recently discussed Mal Young’s tenure as The Young and the Restless’ executive producer/headwriter. “Look, let’s be very honest. The last regime introduced things...

It takes work to look as good as The Young and the Restless‘ Eric Braeden does. After all, he’s got to maintain Victor’s million (billion?) dollar style day after day. So, it was refreshing to get a peek behind the scenes on the social media at how the actor keeps his hair looking sharp and fresh!

The actor acknowledged something Victor never would: Sometimes we all need help. Times are tough, and they’ve been tough for some time now. We’re about to hit the two-year mark on the pandemic and news from around the world is, well, not good. Victor’s life on The Young and the Restless may be a constant dramatic mess (often of his own making), but we’d be lying if we didn’t say that sometimes dealing with Ashland’s lies seems easier than handling real life.

Is anyone having more fun with social media than the soap icon who plays Victor Newman?. After Eric Braeden started the new year by accepting the TikTok “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy?” dance challenge and busting a move to the tune of Rod Stewart’s golden oldie, we were sure — like, 100-percent sure that he couldn’t possibly top that video (which you can watch below, on the off chance that you missed it).

We’re right there with ya, sir. You never forget your first love. Or, in the case of The Young and the Restless’ Victor Newman, your second or third, either. On February 10, the ruthless tycoon’s portrayer Eric Braeden showed his sensitive side, tweeting a lovely behind-the-scenes photo of himself with longtime lady Eileen Davidson, who’s played Ashley Abbott on the CBS soap on and off since 1982.

“He was a great intellect and a tough player.”. “Alzheimer’s is a devastating disease,” wrote Eric Braeden after a visit with Professor Michael Meyer back in November of 2021. How right he is. The sixth leading cause of death in the United States shows no mercy whatsoever as it plunges its sufferers into dementia.

And the Emmy winner lived to tell the amazing tale!. The Young and the Restless‘ Eric Braeden covered a lot of ground when he appeared on The Talk yesterday to celebrate his 42nd anniversary as the one and only Victor Newman. He chatted about everything from Gunsmoke to Mary Tyler Moore and Betty White.

To mark 42 years of playing Victor Newman, Eric Braeden will be a guest on THE TALK on February 4 to discuss his illustrious daytime career. The show is scheduled to air at 2:00 P.M. ET and 1:00 P.M PT.

As previously noted by Soap Opera Network in our weekly guest listings for “The Talk,” “The Young and the Restless” star Eric Braeden (Victor Newman) will appear on the Friday, February 4 episode of the daytime talk show. In addition to Braeden, look for the show...

Sometimes it’s easier to grieve with others than alone. Though he may at times have funny ways of showing it, The Young and the Restless‘ Victor Newman is, undeniably, a family man. Even his battles with his children is because he wants what’s best for them. The mogul just has a little trouble sometimes getting past the fact that he isn’t the sole decider of what that is!

It was an unexpected reunion of THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS rivals when Vincent Irizarry ran into former co-star Eric Braeden (Victor) recently! “It was brought to my attention that yesterday was the anniversary of my first air show on Y&R back in 2007 as the deadly gambling addict and swindling husband to Nikki, David Chow,” Irizarry shared on Instagram with a photo of the duo. “So as fate would have it, it was the perfect time to run into my then-time castmate and on-screen adversary, Mr. Eric Braeden at a favorite Santa Monica wine and dine restaurant, Wally’s.”

Do ya think he’s sexy? Come on sugar, let him know. Victor Newman has got some moves! But then, was there ever any doubt? Just before Thanksgiving, The Young and the Restless’ Eric Braeden announced that he’d be joining TikTok in one of the most delightful ways possible — with a drink in hand and the promise that if he had “another Mexican Chardonnay — which I like — then I will do a dance for you.”
