She was adorable on The Masked Singer as Baby Mammoth. Not a great singer but very funny. I liked that she did not take herself too seriously, which is difficult in the entertainment industry (and indeed for many of us).

Well, we don't know she hadn't had colonoscopies, so.
A former coworker died from this and it was fast and he never had one.
Well, then

I thought she was great as Saavik. Sorry that was the last we saw of her in the Star Trek franchise.
