Sally Spectra is a fictional character from the American soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful. Sally was played by actress Darlene Conley for almost eighteen years, from January 17, 1989, to November 29, 2006.
Introduced in the show's early years, Sally owned and operated Spectra Creations, competing with (and copying from) the show's core family, the Forresters. She was known for her large figure, open and jovial personality, and her trademark red coiffure. Like many dramatic, fashionable and larger-than-life female figures, she was appreciated by fans as a gay icon.[1] She was also celebrated as a fuller-figured woman; Conley described Sally as "unabashedly sexy and completely comfortable not being a size 8. She knows men get a kick out of her."[2]
