[net.startrek] Yeoman Rand Rumor

sdo@linus.UUCP (Sean David O'Neil) (02/13/86)

Okay, gang, here's a weird one I heard in college a few years ago.

One of my friends went to a ST con (in Pennsylvania, I think) and
returned with the following rumor: the woman who played Yeoman Rand
(Grace Lee Whitney?) went to Sweden after leaving the show and
starred in a series of X-rated films.  Since then, I haven't heard
this rumor from anyone else, so I suspect it's probably another one
of those stories one hears in college (or at cons).

Anyone know for sure what Grace(?) did after Star Trek?

Right rumor, wrong character/actress.  The actress who became a porn
star was the one who played Kirk's drill thrall in "The Gamesters of
Triskellion".

Really? Do you happen to know the names of any of the films? They
might prove interesting!

Why doesn't this question surprise me?

For the super observant, Angelique Pettyjohn had a 10-second or so cameo
in "Repo Man."
