WEHT Crystal Bernard

She was the Reese Witherspoon of her day, but much hotter. And she got to kiss hunky Tim Daly.

Her duet with Peter Cetera was a big deal, and I thought would embark her a major singing career. I loved the video and used to twirl around my bedroom window pretending I was her.

So what happened?

"Higher Love" is a 1986 number-one hit song by Steve Winwood. It was the first single released from his fourth solo LP, Back in the High Life. It was written by Winwood and Will Jennings, and produced by Russ Titelman and Winwood. The female vocals on the song were performed by Chaka Khan, who also appeared in the promotional music video. -- wikipedia

One recording of the two that has survived from those years is a song called "The Monkey Song" (an objection to evolution), on Feudin' Fussin' and Frettin' recorded when Crystal was 8 years old,[4] a recording of a 1972 Thomas Road Baptist Church service led by Jerry Falwell.

Apparently the character of Helen Chapel was born in texas but moved to Nantucket as a girl. A convenient excuse for the accent.

Bernard shone on a hilarious “Wings” episode where she pretended to be engaged to sleazeball Roy to appease his obnoxious mother, played by Rose Marie (and yes, it’s pathetic that I remember this!)

Surely you don't actually think the information you get from Wikipedia is 100% correct or complete.

I certainly think someone of her background could have booked jobs in the last 10 years if she had wanted to work in the industry.

Surely you don't think I would trust a poster R165 over Wikipedia. Even a google search doesn't come up with anything about retirement. There are a lot of people that don't work for a number of years (even over 10 years) and all of a sudden there are in something.

Also, considering she has yet to demonstrate an ability to tone down the Texas accent, her playing SoCal Claire would've been a bit of a reach.

Before Wings, I remember Amy Yasbeck from a guest role on the awful 6th season of Designing Women. She played a bimbo nurse attending to Julia and she was hilarious. I recall thinking at the time how much of a better fit she would have been as a regular on the show versus Duffy/Hooks.

Outside of a party or audition, etc., one of the only celebs I ever saw when out and about in L.A. was Steven Weber. Frozen food aisle of Ralphs Supermarket on Sunset.

I had a huge crush on him from Single White Female and he smiled at me but for some reason I froze up.

Steven Weber had a decent face, a fantastic body, and a nice easy manner. He found work exactly at his level. He was fine in "Jeffrey" although because his part was so underwritten (it was Paul Rudnick's idea of what "normal" gay men from the Mdwest were like in the 1990s, which was pretty thin) that a better actor could have done more with the part. He at least had a great ass in it, though.
