Vocalist

The Resume

    (June 5, 1951- )
    Portrayed public defender Billie Young in the second season of 'Night Court'
    Appeared in the movies 'Hair' (1979), 'Tootsie' (1982), 'The King of Comedy' (1983), 'Fatal Attraction' (1987) and 'Cocktail' (1988)
    Recorded the albums 'Night Out' (1979), 'Spirit of St. Louis' (1981) and 'Another Breath' (1983)

Why she might be annoying:

    She sang on Meat Loaf's 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light' but was replaced by Karla DeVito in the video.
    She originated the role of the Witch in Stephen Sondheim's 'Into the Woods' but was replaced by Bernadette Peters when the play reached Broadway.
    Her role in 'Night Court' was meant to be temporary because the producers' first choice, Markie Post, still had a one-year commitment to 'The Fall Guy.'

Why she might not be annoying:

    She toured with the 'National Lampoon Show,' which she called 'completely tasteless, sacrilegious and a lot of fun.'
    Jim Steinman called her a 'modern-day Marlene Dietrich.'
    Mick Jones of the Clash wrote 'Should I Stay or Should I Go' about their relationship.
