No doubt … she started off her career by having an affair with a married Roddenberry when he was starting a new show called Star Trek. At the same time she suddenly becomes a leading co star in the pilot of the new show. Whoever did what, it involved a lot of messy bodily fluids.
I had a bit of contempt for all this when I first read about it regarding The Original Series. I thought she was a loud drama queen when I saw her in TNG and now seeing her playing up and embracing that history and that image in DS9 … I now have a new found respect for her. Instead of fading into the shadows with all that stigma, she put on the biggest wig she could find, put on a beautiful dress, covered up in makeup and smiled as hard as she could to the world.
