Rosanna DeSoto - Klingon Woman Of Power
Klingons are universally known for an intense warrior strength and endless stamina. On the battlefield, they're simply unmatched. However, sometimes a fight isn't about physical weapons or lethal, space battle strategy. It can be fought as a savage, political match - with governments or whole worlds at stake. In such a complex arena, Klingon Chancellor Gorkon's daughter, Azetbur (Rosanna DeSoto) is a woman who won't easily back down.
In the Nicholas Meyer directed Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Azetbur must rise to the challenge after her father, Gorkon (David Warner) is brutally assassinated. With her regal bearing and operatic voice, Azetbur impresses as a no nonsense leader, and she definitely takes no prisoners. DeSoto played Ritchie Valens mom - opposite Lou Diamond Phillips (Longmire) - in the acclaimed biopic drama, La Bamba.

Star Trek Sexy - Starship Spotlight - The Excelsior
Star Trek's most famous space faring vessel is Captain Kirk's Starfleet starship - the U.S.S. Enterprise 1701. Of course, Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) may differ and say his Enterprise - U.S.S. Enterprise 1701-D was more popular. Whichever you prefer - Voyager and Deep Space Nine are also contenders - the fact is the sci-fi franchise has given space ship fans a host of galactic goodies to choose from. One of the more sleek, sexy and downright glorious is the U.S.S. Excelsior NCC-2000.
We first saw this awesome, and by the standards of Kirk's era a far more advanced star ship than Enterprise, in the feature film Star Trek III: The Search For Spock. For all of its supposed might, however, it only takes Scotty a wee bit of tinkering to bring the grand old lady to a halt. Our intrepid engineer removes key components of the warp drive, so that when Kirk hijacks Enterprise, the Excelsior can't follow. Later, in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, none other than Hikaru Sulu (George Takei) now commands the trans-warp powered Excelsior. At one point, it was even rumored that a new Trek show would debut with Captain Sulu at the helm of star trekking adventures.
