We watch our favorite soap opera stars every weekday during daytime TV, and it’s always such a joy when we’re given the rare opportunity to get a little more insight into their lives beyond the screen. It’s even more exciting when one of our favorites, like Conner Floyd — who plays the character Chance Chancellor on The Young and the Restless — opens up in a candid interview. If you’re one of those fans who just can’t get enough of Chance, then you’re in for a treat. We found a delightful little feature called “Fast Five with Conner Floyd,” and it’s filled with fun, quirky, and surprising tidbits that give fans a deeper look into the actor behind the badge.
The video kicks off with Floyd being asked what the most common crime in Genoa City is — which, of course, is the fictional town where The Young and the Restless is set. Floyd humorously replied, “I don’t think it’s technically a crime, but it’s definitely a crime of the heart.” He went on to elaborate, “Cheating. Everyone’s cheating on everybody here… cheaters left and right… but not Chance.” His playful answer not only drew a few laughs, but also reminded fans of just how messy love and relationships can get in soap operas. However, it’s reassuring to know that Chance is staying loyal — at least for now.
The second question took a more personal turn, asking the actor about his first car. Conner fondly reminisced about his “1990 Chevrolet Blazer with 38-inch tires and a 12-inch lift.” He proudly declared, “It was a beast,” and you could hear the nostalgia in his voice as he described the massive vehicle. It’s always fun to hear about celebrities’ first cars because it’s one of those common experiences that grounds them and makes them feel relatable.
Then, onto a universally beloved topic: pizza. When asked about his favorite pizza toppings, Floyd didn’t hold back. He stated that he’s all about “pepperoni, extra cheese,” and made sure to emphasize his love for “parmesan on that extra cheese,” all laid on a “really, really good butter crust.” Sounds absolutely delicious — and fans probably now have a clearer idea of what kind of pizza to bring if they ever get invited to a party with him!
One of the most interesting and surprising parts of the video came when Conner Floyd was asked to share something that people might not know about him. That’s when he revealed a fascinating family connection: “I’m actually related to a famous outlaw.” Naturally, viewers might guess names like Jesse James or Billy the Kid, but the answer was more unexpected. “Charles ‘Pretty Boy’ Floyd,” he revealed, referencing the notorious outlaw from the same era as John Dillinger. Conner then shared a story passed down through his family — his great-grandfather told tales about Pretty Boy Floyd coming through their farm, hiding items there, and even giving them money. It was a neat and personal anecdote that added a whole new layer to his persona.
The video wrapped up with some final fun facts, including what day of the week Conner Floyd loves the most. While that specific answer wasn’t detailed in the summary, viewers are encouraged to watch the full clip to find out exactly which day and why it holds a special place in his heart. Little segments like this “Fast Five” interview help fans connect with their favorite stars in a fun and meaningful way. It’s not just about the drama on-screen — though there’s plenty of that — but about learning who these actors are when the cameras stop rolling.
And though Floyd’s real-life romantic status has changed — he got engaged in December 2024 — his on-screen counterpart Chance is still very much single. That contrast between real life and the world of Genoa City adds an extra layer of intrigue for fans. It also opens up exciting possibilities for the storyline of Chance, who remains one of the most eligible bachelors in the fictional soap world.
