RIP Nurse Chapel


One of the women I had an inappropiate crush on when I was a young monkey, Majel Barrett Roddenberry, has died. She played Nurse Chapel on the original Star Trek and she played Troi's mother in Star Trek: TNG. Rest in peace Majel, maybe in another life you and I can hook up and make the beast with two backs.

I thought it was the ones in the red tunics that always died.

Did you know, she was also the voice of the ship's computer in TOS, and has the distinction of being in every single Star Trek movie (sometimes just her voice).

I saw a funny blooper real one time at a convention and it had DeForest Kelly and her, being thrown around sick bay, and Deforest was grabbing her boobs from behind as they were throwing themselves around.

I saw that blooper. Looks to me like DeForest grabbing her breasts was accidental at first but, once he realized what he had in his hands, he decided to have some fun with the situation since Majel apparently didn't object... ;)

She was both a beautiful woman and a great performer; she will be missed.
