“Toya is definitely a perfect fit as the fourth Powerpuff Girl,” said Jamie Ondarza, Senior Vice President at Turner Broadcasting in Southern Europe and Africa. “She is confident, bubbly and quirky, all the values that we are familiar with, love and appreciate. We have a lot of surprises up our sleeves.”
