Steve Anthony worked as a Much VJ from May '87 to November '95. His infectious personality, zany on-air antics and unpredictability made him a true fan favourite. So naturally, Much had to nab him to be a part of the Expert Panel for MuchMusic VJ Search: The Series.

Some Steve Anthony classics:

• A Johnny Carson-style gag interview with Mötley Crüe
• Mud surfing with fans at Woodstock '94
• The "Sleep is for Wimps Marathon" where Anthony stayed awake on air for a solid 56 hours
• Too Close For Comfort (Anthony and a panel of judges lambasted songs for sounding too much alike)
• Cooking with Steve, featuring off-the-cuff interviews with artists while whipping up some grub
• A game he called Who Dat? (grossly elasticized images made for lots of artist-recognition fun)
• His brain-freeze stunt segment called Braino, where random fans chugged ice water just outside Much

Originally from Montreal, Anthony currently works as an Afternoon Radio Host at Toronto's MIX 99.9, and he provides the national and imaging voice for CHUM Television's A-Channel Network, SPACE: The Imagination Station and Drive-In Classics. In addition, his vocal talents have been used for a multitude of commercials and cartoons. Plus, he was the original "fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants" field host for Citytv Toronto's BreakfastTelevision for five years.

An unforgettable VJ icon, Anthony has this advice for hopefuls competing in MuchMusic VJ Search: The Series: "Break a leg! No, really... Break a leg!"
