Shatner Not Invited To Takei's Wedding
George "Sulu" Takei has revealed his plans to wed his longtime companion -- but his former "Star Trek" co-star, William Shatner, will not be a part of it.Takei told AP Radio that when he weds Brad Altman on Sept. 14, Walter Koenig, who played Chekhov in "Star Trek," will be the best man "Ensign Chekhov, report to the agony booth." and Nichelle Nichols, who played Uhura, will be the matron of honor. "Gay-ling frequencies open, sir!"  Leonard "Spock" Nimoy is also invited, "Illogical." but Shatner, who played Captain Kirk, is not. "Sulu! Sulu, damnit, beam me up!" "You're not invited, Captain." WARNING: The following paragraph contains too much information. Those of you who are easily offended, or have weak constitutions, should not scroll down any further. Takei said that he was working out at a running club more than two decades ago when he spotted the man he now plans to marry. In his first joint radio interview with his husband-to-be, Takei told AP Radio that Altman was the best looking guy in the club with a "lean, tightly muscled" body. Takei says he had his "I generally prescribe rinsing the brain with a gallon of bleach to get rid of mental images like that." "Aye, Doctor McCoy. The cleanin' solvents we use on the warp engines'll scrub that right out." "Scotty, I'm just glad I didn't live to see it." "Aye. Me too." Posted by: Mike 2008-06-04 |
