Random thought: I strongly disagree with the commentary that SNW Uhura is "masculinized". She's got makeup, sparkly earrings, walks with a sashay, and was a literal queen in one episode.
Some of these negative comments regarding the character have hurt people, particularly Black fans with that very hair which is the subject of much of this commentary.

Now that the strike is over, actors can promote their work again! Like this video of the Strange New Worlds cast singing along with the final song from their musical episode. I love these dorks so much. And I love knowing the cast likes each other enough to stick around and sing/scream with each other after filming.

Confession #131
"Screw that "masculine" and "mammy" bullshit. I think Celia Rose Gooding's version of Uhura is one of the most beautiful and feminine characters on the show. Also, I think you must be blind if you didn't see how gorgeous Uhura was in that evil queen dress in "The Elysian Kingdom." "
Personal note: There's a boatload of confessions ahead of this one, but I hope you will forgive me if I use my blogger privileges to put it ahead.
